25/06/2026: I came here with a small group for lunch. The menu is on the front of the menu, and the à la carte options are on the back, catering to everyone's tastes (e.g., vegetarians). The dishes we were served were well-prepared and delicious (great job in the kitchen). The portion sizes were perhaps a little small considering the ingredients and price, a point echoed in other reviews. But that's an understandable pricing strategy.
Almost everything went smoothly except... that the owner, who was serving, seemed, in my opinion, to lack both business acumen and empathy. Our group consisted of people who are at a stage in their lives where they need to be more careful with their finances than others. But they made the effort to join the group. When ordering, two people in our group wanted to swap desserts: the one who had ordered the set menu wanted one of the desserts from the à la carte menu, and offered his dessert from the set menu to the one who had ordered a main course (the latter being on a tight budget). The owner refused, explaining that she needed to keep her business afloat (I don't remember her exact words, but everyone heard and understood the gist of it). As a result, the one who ordered the set menu was charged for an à la carte dessert (which is naturally more expensive than the set menu dessert), and the other (who is on a budget) was also charged for an à la carte dessert. I used to be a shopkeeper: this kind of attitude has no place here! The outcome of this whole affair: out of solidarity with our friend, the owner won't see us again, she'll have peace of mind without customers trying to rip her off, and we'll be safe from another robbery by her.
P.S.: One more annoying "detail" is that the owner tends to complain about electronic payment methods (meal vouchers and even credit cards), explaining that the commission on these transactions eats into her profit margin. Even though I paid in cash that day, for me, that really takes the cake! The owner completely forgets to consider that she sees some customers thanks to meal vouchers, and that she would see others thanks to holiday vouchers! Perhaps she'll remember this when she's going through a period of reduced business. Just to clarify, because I sometimes hear that meal vouchers are "a gift": 100% of the meal voucher is funded by the employee's work. Approximately half the voucher's value is a contribution from the company (whose wealth is created by the employees' labor), exempt from social security contributions, and the other half is deducted from the employee's payslip (this deduction is made at the very end, so the employee has already paid social security contributions on the amount). Meal vouchers are a payroll supplement that offers exemptions to the employer, but they are not a gift to the employee, a portion of whose salary is allocated to food (it's fortunate that we can still use meal vouchers for grocery shopping, because the voucher's value in 2026 will be around 9 euros... there aren't many restaurant meals at that price, just junk food to take away).
