The ambiance is kinda shabby chic, which is alright. We ordered mushroom & halloumi pizza and shrimp & cream cheese pizza. The waiting time was almost one hour! I could see the chef (without any coverage of his pretty long hair) opening the pizza oven three times until the pizza was served. Not only was the mushroom pizza badly overcooked (slow baked pizza!) and therefore hard, the mushrooms were black and bitter, means the shelf life had certainly expired and the halloumi was close to be burned.

Total recommendation and we...
