Read moreI was curious about this place. They told me that it had the best mini steaks in town or pork chops in English. After tasting it we weren't impressed. Small portions, they look big but aren't, because the steaks are very thin, overcooked almost burned sometimes and expensive comparing to the restaurants around.

Read moreThe place was recommended by a local friend as the best pork chops in town. It indeed is true. pork chops were delicious, the portion was huge. The house wine was even better than that pork chops. Over all good was great , value for money, cheap. They have limited Menu. Only thing that was funny/strange was the service. The old lady serving us did not know English. She was in a hurry to give us good without understanding what we want. My impression was that being a tourist she wanted to get some extra money from us by causing confusion and serving us few Extra side dishes :) But it was still good food and bill was much less than what one would pay in a fancy restaurant...
