I really don't understand how this place is still open. Every time I go I'm the only customer there. And despite that the food still takes a little too long to arrive. One time I came for dinner, and when I asked for a menu, they explained that the chefs weren't there and they couldn't serve me any food. Why were they open then? They told me they could serve me drinks, but no one comes to a restaurant exclusively for drinks. That's what bars are for. They were closed from January 1st to February 18th of 2026. They didn't announce the closure on their social media because they don't have social media. They didn't update their hours on Google either. So customers who came here thinking it was open - because there was no indication otherwise - wasted their time. The quality of the food and prices are average for the area.
