Ate most of it before I remembered to take a photo 🥲 Mixed fried seafood was super good even though I took it away to the hotel! The staff are super friendly and allowed me to get the seafood mix with fries at the same price :) The prawns especially are phenomenal, so well fried you can eat the entire prawn shell and all.
Was pretty disappointed as I was excited to come here. The tartare is very underseasoned with no flavor, and the fried seafood was overly breaded. Definitely a few bites that were pure breading. Staff was extremely nice though, maybe it was an off day, but I’m very surprised at the high ratings here.
We stopped in our tracks, smelling something beautiful; fried fish 🥰 We had frittura mista/mixed fried seafood, 1 large plate for the 3 of us. SO GOOD, bellisima!
I had the oysters and grilled seafood. Delicious and super fresh! Does not disappoint! It's located on the first floor and a must try. Staff super friendly as well 🙂. Normal meal probably around 10-20 euros but I had to get 2 rounds of oysters because they were so good!
we arrived just before the shop opened and the owners willingly prepared the food for us, really nice! as for the food, they're really tasty. the mixed fried seafood is crispy and the seafood taste fresh. we also had the fish soup which also came with other seafood and the soup is really flavourful. seating area is quite limited, only a few seats in front of the store.
