The breakfast was generally good and enjoyable. Everything tasted fresh and was nicely prepared. Nothing particularly mind-blowing, but it was a satisfying breakfast and a good way to start the day.

The place was pretty crowded though, which I guess says something about its popularity. It can feel a little busy, especially during the morning peak, so probably don't expect a quiet and slow breakfast experience.

What stood out was the great service. Despite how crowded the place was, the team remained friendly, welcoming and attentive. Service was efficient and everything was handled well without making us feel rushed.

Overall, not bad food, great service and a nice breakfast experience. Pretty crowded, but understandable considering how popular the place seems to be. Definitely a decent breakfast option if you don't mind the crowd.

Personale gentilissimo (consigli su piatti e porzioni) ambiente curato e accogliente. Imperdibili le uova alla Benedict e gli waffle.  Prenotazione praticamente obbligatoria con caparra.
