Lovely looking restaurant with live music. It is visited by the locals and is in the "posh" neighbourhood. The place had lots of outdoor seating, but we were ushered to a seat near the stairs when there was ample seating in the middle. When we asked to sit somewhere else, it was clear that wasn't what they wanted, but they could not say anything. The reason for the 2 stars is that they give you a lovely bread basket with a range of different breads to try. However, when my sister went to bite into some of it she found a fly deep within.
