This was a fabulous find. The staff are friendly and the food (a brilliant array of apertizers) was terrific! We had wine/Presecco by the glass and were so full - we cancelled dinner.

We walked around Messina looking for an interesting place to eat something.. we ended up in a bar. But what a bar! Great cocktails, real fruit flavor, perfect for a sunny day! The appetizers were delicious, the portion was really big! Greetings to Jolka, who works there! Big hugs from Poland! It was nice to meet such an interesting, nice and beautiful person like you!
