Rice dishes also form part of its culinary identity, giving the restaurant a broad choice for meals built around marine produce and traditional coastal flavours.

Its terrace provides an open-air setting for meals and time with family, while the spacious dining rooms offer a comfortable option when indoor seating is preferred.
