The space is bright and elegant, white walls, parquet flooring, crisp linen, black leather banquettes and rich mahogany detailing, capturing the feel of a timeless European dining room.

The menu is served as a sequence of sharing plates, designed to build in size and intensity. Guests might begin with an oyster or oeuf mayonnaise, then move to clams with Tropea onion and asparagus, or beef tartare with pommes allumettes, finishing with dishes like butterflied mackerel topped with agretti and bottarga. Every plate balances precision with warmth.
