A beautiful little restaurant that only has a limited menu but all the dishes are done to the highest standards. The chef is from Japan and the food is a mixture from that country and others, with wonderful flavours. Our waiter was very friendly and helpful and most other diners were regulars which always means that the standard is consistently high.
