It is undoubtedly a very pretty restaurant, but: 1. The noise level is intolerable. Diners yell at each other across small, closely located tables, to speak to each other. Playing music just raises the speech levels. 2. Food portions are tiny, and terrible value. For example, the main course ravioli dish has just several squares of ravioli at the bottom of a big dish. The amount, for $24, would barely qualify as a starter. Expect a huge bill or to leave hungry.

Gracious service, delicious food, wonderful ambiance. The mushroom bruschetta were excellent and the grilled squid was outstanding—possibly the best I’ve ever eaten. Really appreciated the piping hot plate it was served in! Such a pleasure to be able to revisit a favourite restaurant and find it’s as good as ever.

Overall the food was very flavourful. The cauliflower soup was nicely spiced. The shrimp was a little too spicy for the taste of one of our party. The branzino was nicely prepared with Israaeli couscous. Also the kale ravioli was a good vegan choice.
