Nice ambience, food i tried was pretty good, though everything needs bread and that has to be ordered as a separate item. Portions are small.
Service was lacking - first the bartender had to “check” until when was the happy hour when i asked to confirm it was until 19:00. A woman walked in 10 minutes after me and asked about the happy hour and he still wasnt sure until when it was...he had to “check” again.
I ordered fried calamari, he brought me the grilled. I asked about it, confused because he had asked me fried or grilled. I had said fried - but when i asked he told me he asked me and i had said grilled. He did offer to change it but i didnt feel like waiting.

It came with a delicious lemon aioli and sweet potato fries and little potato chunks. It worked together absolutely beautifully and highly recommend it. The staff were also super cute and friendly, and the place had a very relaxed and...
Read moreA nice and cozy seafood bar, with an unusually diverse selection of Araq brands. Anise lovers will be pleasantly surprised to find several Jordanian and Palestinian titles. The food is delicious and well prepared, albeit servings are small, and their roasted calamari recipe is an acquired taste. The flimsy wooden bar stools are very uncomfortable, and the rest of the furniture looks similarly plain and cheap... whicn can not be said about their prices! In our last hangout the bill was slightly over 400 for two people, which is a bit steep for a small street bar in the Florentin area. If you're after seafood proper, for the same budget you'll be better served by trying a more traditional restaurant,...
