Highly recommend this restaurant for not only it’s atmosphere but for its food. We made a reservation to be able to catch the sunset while we dine and it was magical. The food was out of this world and our server, Tolis, gave us great recommendations of food and wine. Would definitely come back.

Amazing food, the catch of the day is delicious and is highly recommended. They have a smaller fish option for a solo traveler which was perfect for a table of 1. Easy to book a reservation for sunset and have an amazing sunset view. -1 star for not giving me the food menu immediately. I had to ask twice. They don’t give you it until you’re pressured to buy a drink. I didn’t want to order a drink until I’ve seen the menu! Not sure why giving the food menu is not the standard, seems to be a way to get you to spend more money due to pressure. But I guess that’s “typical” for a more higher end restaurant. Either way I was not happy with that. I just wanted to order food. Another -1 star as I asked for the check and they brought back the dessert menu. I had already turned down dessert and just wanted the check. It seemed like other tables didn’t deal with this same pressure? I want the service I requested, not some weird roundabout way of getting me to spend more money.

Excellent food, everything is high quality and made to perfection. The view is amazingly beautiful and it's highly recommended at sunset but the real gem is the service! Wow! They are the most kind and funny servers on this island. Very knowledgeable and always ready with a recommendation. 11/10 for the staff! Amazing!

We ordered Octopus beans salad and stem seafood for the starter, we like the salad, stem seafood is little too pricey in very small portion (but the sauce is good!). For main dish, we had daily fresh catch fish which is so great! And the shrimp pasta we also like it! And the vibes is very good with absolutely stunning sunset❤️

Beautiful ambiance and incredibly attentive service. The food exceeds expectations and is certainly worth the visit, definitely make a reservation though. The sunset view is beautiful, but be aware of guests standing in front of you and setting up tripods to film the sunset. That can be a bit of a mood killer, but certainly no fault of the restaurant. Worth the visit, great food experience!
