User reviews
"The food at the beach was quite mediocre and seemed overpriced considering the quality. I suppose you are mostly paying for the prime location. However, it was a nice touch to receive an appetizer of olives and bread while waiting. The views were absolutely stunning and couldn't have been better. Additionally, the service provided was exceptionally kind."

"I had a chicken burger with roasted potatoes, along with some bread, olives, and vegetables. I also ordered orange juice to drink. The food was good, but the service was a bit slow due to only one person serving. However, it was still okay."
