The place itself is nice and cozy, but the food, the waiting time, and the wasp swarms were just a nightmare. We were there with three couples, so 6 people in total. The cafe was empty, with only one other family sitting inside. Our food was brought out incredibly slowly, especially considering that they don't cook the food themselves but just heat up semi-finished products.

The quality of the food was ok, but I don’t think it was worth the price and the long wait time.
Also, this place has outdoor seating only, and does not have a proper restroom or handwashing station. I would give more stars if any of the things I mentioned...
