This hotel and Restaurant are fairly close to our hotel, making the walk both ways reasonable. We ate here twice in our week visit. The restaurant is both on the roof terrace where a fire pit can be lit making it feel like a camp site and the inside which is an elegant restaurant. The menu is quite varied and we really enjoyed our meals there. Service was excellent, especially since the food is prepared on a lower level and is brought up to the dining room. On our first visit we shared a cauliflower soup which was nicely seasoned, mostly pureed but with visible bits of the vegetable also. Vern had the saffron chicken dinner and I chose the pottery kebab with lamb. My first pottery dinner. I liken it to a mini tagine. This restaurant covers with aluminum foil. All the food was terrific. The all glass wall provides great views over town while memorable music is played. On our second visit Vern had the lamb chops and I chose the lamb shank. As I picked it up the meat fell away to the plate. Most excellent. We had a rice pudding dessert as well and loved it. Prompt and friendly service also.Dear Ruthan,Firstly,thanks a lot for choose our restaurant.And thanks for this nice comment.We are so happy because of your satisfaction.Because your happiness our happiness.We hope to see you again...

We read the review in Lonely Planet and were very keen to try this place. We were turned away the first time as we did not have a reservation. They did not even bother to ask if we wanted a reservation another time. We noticed that they are small (hence always full), highly rated and hence have that air of superiority. In any case we called and made a reservation the following day. The staff seated us and served us in a timely manner. The kebab pot was good and tasty. The tomatoes-chick peas-beef dish was tasteless and lacked the tomatoes and had very little beef. That was disappointing. We ordered a nice, expensive bottle of wine and were promised a 2012 vintage. However they brought out a 2017 vintage and it was fine. In the dark interior I read it as 2012, but when we took the remainder to our hotel room realized that it was 2017. I would overall rate the food and service as average, the attitude of the staff as businesslike and the interior as tasteful and well decorated with local furnishings.
