Walked around area for a while and settled on this place because of the amount of locales hanging and dining here. Opted to sit inside and was placed at the bar.

They did have a menu in English however no prices were listed but I scanned the one in German and was pretty sure of my choice, the seafood salad. Happy with the variety which included grilled calamari, salmon, mussels, clams, prawn, and fish. All this on a bed of greens. I was satisfied with my meal and followed up with Gelato from a small place two doors down.

This is your typical neighborhood Italian joint, were everyone loves to go and get together. Everytime I have gone there they are always full so you may have to wait a bit for seating or simply make reservations.Their dishes are pretty good, they can be pricey though so keep that in mind, however it is worth to visit because it will give you a good experience of Italian food, locals socializing and good service for sure.
