The seafood menu

The food consists mainly of fish and shellfish, not unexpected. It is certainly not bad, but not special according to many reviews. but it might become special with the view and the smell of the ocean.

Prices have gone up sharply due to all the attention. In addition, booking a table has now become a lot more difficult. In the past you could just walk in here, but that time has passed. Try to avoid weekends and holiday periods.
