this little gem is a rare combination of outstanding personal service and exquisite food. The very charming hostess made sure we felt at home in the small restaurant, while her smiling husband, the chef, kept US smiling throughout dinner. whilst this may be very hard to find, it is worth it, thanks again to the charming couple More

Hidden at the end of a narrow alley, this restaurant is certainly worth the extra few minutes spent finding it on a map! It had a very homey and cozy feel, with a cute courtyard.
