Reviews
(Sorry for the messy videos, they are from Live Photos and I need my points lol)
I would not recommend the bread though. The lemon mayo also had a lot of mint – which I enjoyed, but it was unpleasant surprise for my husband who does not like mint. Could be better if they clearly stated in the menu that there were mint also.
We sat outdoors. Some fishy smell from the fish market nearby, but got used to it quickly that it did not bother much.
The staff was very friendly. The first time I went, I was told they didn’t serve fries, but I could get the fried cone on its own, which was fine. My order arrived within a minute or two, and it came with a plate, napkins, and lemon wedges. The fish was fresh, the batter crisp, and the quality of the seafood was excellent. Even as someone who normally doesn’t enjoy fish and seafood, I liked everything I tried.
It was so good, that a few days later I went back. The cone was just as good as the first visit, served the same way. This time there were more small octopus pieces, which slightly dominated the mix compared to shrimp or calamari and other fish, but it was still very tasty.
Overall the food is fresh, high quality, and consistently well prepared. I highly recommend it for anyone who wants to try some seafood in a casual, fast-food style setting.
The food didn’t help. The calamari was very rubbery and hard to chew. The pizza came out soaking wet in the middle, and the shrimp tasted very fishy and didn’t seem fresh at all.
Between the long waits, poor service, and disappointing food quality, this isn’t a place I’d return to or recommend.
As every nice place is now full of tourists but how can I complain when I’m one.
The quality of the food is excellent. The fried fish is tasty, fresh and a reasonable quantity.
The arancinetti were a real treat, strongly recommend them.
And the swordfish caponata was refreshing and brought memories of the Mediterranean.
Price is adequate and staff was very kind despite the horde of tourist.
