   Nice place, staffs very friendly. But the food wasn’t tasty. Fries and burger recooked. Coke very expensive for splashs, for 4.10 euros at list should be a bootle of 300ml.

   ⸻ I came here once again, but this time for brunch and I absolutely loved it! I had the Eggs Chiapas and an iced caramel latte, and both were simply divine. Thaís took great care of us, she was super friendly and recommended this amazing dish. Compliments to the chef! We’ll definitely be coming back again.

   Potato and leek soup was the worst soup I ever had. Tasted as if boiled potatoes were just blended with the potato water. Dirty fries are horrible, it’s just buffalo sauce with cheese on top and you could tell the cheese was melted by putting the whole thing in the microwave. Would not come back here. Food was very poor. I would not recommend.
