Beautiful location with very tasty food. Good menu selection. Only negative is the disparity in portion size vs price. Small plates, chicken wings, was a good size for a “small plate”. Crispy beef salad, although delicious, was almost twice price of small plate but very small portion. We ordered as part of a selection to share so ok for us but if you had ordered as a single item it would have been disappointing. Taste though was excellent
