I tried their aperitivo formula and the weekly burger. I was expecting a minimalist touch from such an place. Yet, the experience turned out to be somewhat confusing.
However, prices are reasonable and the staff is attentive. I appreciated how they treated us. While I wouldn't recommend it, I wouldn't say that this place is bad either.
Incredibly nice atmosphere and very friendly staff who know when to offer help and when to give time.
The food was excellent! Interesting flavor combinations and great quality.
The tequila cocktail was over the top!
All in all, if you are in Pigneto, be sure (!) to stop by!
You can tell that there is a lot of love put into this business and therefore I've fallen in love with this place. Looking forward to coming back again next time. 100 out of 10 would recommend for a quick drink, meal or a whole evening.
