Good to know

  • Book in advance because the place is very popular and the atmosphere heats up quickly.
  • Go for the sharing-plates concept: customers recommend ordering several starters and central dishes to fully explore the menu.
  • Ask the team for advice: Paolo, Mackenzie, Mathieu, or Beatrice are excellent at recommending cocktails, wines, and iconic dishes.
  • Watch out for the olives, which some find very salty; try them anyway if you like salt.
  • The music gets louder toward the end of the evening: perfect if you want to dance, less so if you're looking for a quiet conversation.
  • Try the desserts and cocktails: many customers found them exceptional and returned specifically for them.
  • The venue works very well for groups and corporate events: a team of 60 people had a wonderful evening.
  • Come with a festive spirit: many customers end the night singing and dancing with the team.
