This was a horrible experience. The starters (salmon tartar and burrata) were ok, but then it went downhill.

The menu seemed to change weekly, which gave me a little surprise, but we were very satisfied with what we got. The leek fondue was an interesting surprise as a side dish. We tried the bull stew, fish of the day, and meat of the day. All were solid choices with good execution. Desserts were great as well: the lemon pie had authentic lemon cream topping that tasted like refreshing lemon, and the chocolate dessert was perfectly smooth. Great food, great atmosphere, and that amphitheater view made...
