The view was beautiful. The food was pretty good, very beautifully presented. Prices are extremely reasonable. However, We sat at our table for about 25 minutes before the waiter came to the table.
When he walked up he made an aggressive hand gesture which made me confused. As I was looking at him to understand, he quite literally YELLED at me “let’s go! Order! Order! Order!” I was extremely embarrassed and taken aback, but tried to order for myself and my children as quickly as possible. Before I was able to finish, he said “that’s enough!” And walked away.

They served me a tiramisu that had only cream, without any biscotti inside, which made it not a tiramisu at all. The mascarpone was very heavy and therefore not eatable.. How can you eat something that is just fat?! When I told them that the tiramisu contained only mascarpone, they replied that this is how they make tiramisu. Very disappointing... I do not necessarily recommend this place... since it did not match the very appreciated reviews I had...
