Really great service and kind people work there. The homemade pasta was amazing. The barracuda and feta pasta was super flavorful. The lobster pasta was a little more bland but still good. The profiterole with ice cream and passion fruit sauce for dessert was the star of the show. Incredible!

We ordered three large pizzas and my boys really enjoyed them. The service was great as we received our food and drinks in good time and the waiter was extremely polite.

That being said, I probably would only go once during our stay.

I ate lunch here with my son yestarday. We each had a pasta (with the supposedly freshly made tagliatelle for additional M50 each) - mine the mixed seafood and his a basic pesto. The shrimps were all mushy and other than a little octopus, the balance of sauce was a pasty indistinguishable mix. Flavour ok but hardly the fresh seafood that the waiter promised. The homemade pasta didn’t feel like it either. I asked for some Parmesan and used 2 teaspoonfuls - and then found a M60 charge on the bill for it!! Really???
The only real highlight was the Mojito. The service was friendly and efficient (other than inaccurately portraying the seafood as very fresh!!). Total price including tip Mt2200!! A beer, a mojito and 2 pastas. I would not recommend I am afraid.

Thank you for your detailed feedback. We apologize for your recent experience. It's disappointing to hear that the seafood and homemade pasta did not meet your expectations, and we will certainly address these issues with our kitchen staff. The additional charge for Parmesan in spite being showed on the menu should have been communicated upfront, and we're sorry for the oversight. We're glad you enjoyed the Mojito and found the service friendly and efficient. We appreciate your honesty and will use your feedback to improve.

The best restaurant in Tofo with a service to match. The chicken schnitzel is one of the best I have ever tasted. Unlike other places in Tofo this place not only does amazing food but the staff are on it. You'll never get cold food in this place.
