What People Are Saying

"Excellent restaurant. Transparent to show the kitchen to the guests. Staff are super friendly and helpful. I liked the carrot veggie and potato snack. The popular lamb meatballs were incredibly soft and tasty with some Indian touch. They are also kid friendly, and also offer pasta to kids. The one downside was the apple baklava - I hope they come to up something better. Also, hazelnut ice cream may be a good pairing to the rice pudding or some other dessert."

"My feelings about the place are mixed. The restaurant is very popular, and most of the dishes are tasty. The concept is “small portions,” and they really are small. If you want to leave full and not just snack, the bill can get quite high. For example, the pork schnitzel costs $23 and is about half the size of what you get in many Italian restaurants in the city. The steak tartare had a lot of fibers and was disappointing. One dish deserves a special note: the potato rösti. It’s very tasty and extremely crispy. However, people who care about health should know that this dish is likely high in acrylamide, a substance suspected of being carcinogenic. The darker and more burnt potatoes or bread are, the more acrylamide they contain. This rösti, with its deep brown color, is delicious but not healthy. The ice cream is excellent and highly recommended. Summary: Food: 4 Loud music: 2 Service: 5 Value for money: 3"

"Our favorite nice dinner place. Expensive yes, but the quality of food and service is very worth the price. We’ll usually come in a big group and get as many different dishes as possible, every dish truly tastes great. With the small plates you can try lots of different dishes. Unique menu and it changes with the season. Inside of restaurant is cool. Good cocktails. Good local community. Really love it!"

"Really tasty and fresh food, and they make it right in from of you. Each dish is tiny for appetizer and 1-2 portions for the rest. I liked everything except for the spaghetti dish which was on the salty side. Dessert was really good. Highly recommended!"

★★★★

"Delicious food, highly recommend. I am vegetarian so cannot speak to the meat dishes my family had, but safe to say that every savory dish that came out of the kitchen was so tasty. Highlights were the whole wheat spaghetti and the swordfish but would happily eat any of those dishes again. Dessert was okay but not the star. The olive oil cake was a bit dry - odd for an oil cake. The chocolate bread pudding was very good. Decaf coffee not good but decaf rarely ever is. I loved the atmosphere and decor of the restaurant and that you can see the kitchen which is the focal point of the front. Service was okay. The restaurant was busy, with many people outside on a chilly night to experience this food. Not the cheapest dishes but thought everything was reasonably priced and decent portions for tapas style."
