Restaurante com um conceito diferente do habitual, onde reina a boa disposição

Going to this restaurant is like going to your cousin’s home for dinner. All the appetizers, the main and desserts are pre-planned and meticulously prepared in an inclusive dinner. If you decline to try one of the dishes the servers seem disappointed as they take pride in stuffing you to your eyeballs. (The food was prepared with love after all). We knew we were in for an experience when the owner told us “I will serve you our menu and we won’t change a thing. If you don’t like it frankly I don’t care- I’ve been doing this the same way for 32 years”. It is a must-try for an immersive cultural experience and amazing farm-to-table traditional food. Thank you for welcoming us into your “home”!

Unbelievable food, kind and very pleasant staff, awesome deserts and very warm atmosphere! I wouldn't miss another visit for the world! haha don't eat for a couple of hours before... You will definetely need the space :-p

Excellent for large groups. Happy atmosphere with warm family style service. The staff is attentive and professional. Ample variety of dishes served with some tasty options for vegetarians and vegans too. Enough food choices to satisfy all palates. Enjoy!
