    I live close by and have been to various restaurants on this site over the years but this was my first visit to the present incumbent. I wish I had visited sooner. I had a lovely Crudo of Sea Bass followed by a mouth-watering Iberico Pork Presa and some really interesting wines. I'll be back soon!
