Faultless from start to finish
Everything came hot and nothing came late. We have eaten here 8 times and it has not changed, which is the point.

The dining room was full and the service did not slow down. The waiter knew the menu without looking.

Booked for eight and seated at eight. The portions were generous and the bill was what the menu said. Karin came out of the kitchen at the end to ask how it was.
