La comida, de 10. El ambiente, de 10. Y la ubicación… romántica no, lo siguiente. Si vais, reservad y pedid mesa en la terraza: es simplemente preciosa.

Además, fui por mi 50 cumpleaños y tuvieron un detalle que no olvidaré: llegaron con las velas y me cantaron el cumpleaños feliz. 🥹 Un momento precioso que hizo que la experiencia fuera todavía más especial.

Y hablando de la comida, hemos comido en otros sitios de Venecia bastante más caros y, sinceramente, con mucha menos calidad y mucho menos encanto.

Un lugar para recordar, para recomendar y, sin duda, para volver. ❤️

The food was good, service was maybe a bit slow and we were sat right by the swinging kitchen doors and bathroom which wasn’t ideal.
