Central location of the restaurant. The food was very tasty and the service was good. There is also a small selection of very good quality T-shirts. We were able to park right in front of the restaurant.

Worst dinning experience. The sunny kapana we ordered was off, the owner didn’t even listen to our side of the story and told us to pay for the meat. Cause “a lot” of people come with the same stories.
