The ambiance is cozy and romantic, making it a perfect spot for a special evening. I tried the fettuccini lobster pasta - rich and flavorful, though I expected a bit more lobster for the price. My partner enjoyed the lavender-crusted chicken, which was beautifully crunchy on the outside and juicy inside, paired perfectly with a Hendrix dry martini.
Don’t skip dessert: the warm apple strudel with ice cream was a delightful treat! 🍏
Overall, it’s a lovely dining experience worth the visit. Can’t wait to return!
