"Came here in a group of 6 people. The restaurant is small so reservation is a must during peak hours. Very reasonable price and the serving is big. We had a very nice appetizer of prawn, cod salad and chicken (something) , roasted pig with salad and chips for maindish and assorted desserts. They were all delicious. The wine choices are also not expensive. Less than 3 min walk from the Tram #2 station. Highly recommended, will definitely come back here."
