I found this place on the Michelin Guide and I’m so happy I made a reservation! The space is pretty small—only a few tables with reservation tent cards placed on each one when you enter. The space is cozy and a bit intimate—It felt as if I was visiting a family member’s home for dinner. The day I dined, there were only two employees preparing the food, serving and hosting. Not much English is spoken here, but they’re incredibly friendly!

I allowed one of the hosts to choose some of their favorite dishes for us. All of the plates are shareable—I do not recommend ordering a single dish per person as the portions are large. Three dishes would be the perfect amount for two people—honestly, even three!

They are quite popular—reservations are strongly recommended!
