Very quiet as I think the location is quite secluded. Nicole was on point with serving us & very lovely. The food was as expected with the octopus cooked to perfection. My fave was the aubergine

Lovely experience, food was good. Service was mostly great aside from the fact that our order "didn't go through" so we waited longer for our food than we should have. But aside from that, the overall experience was nice.
