Boa tarde, tenho uma coisa a dizer, não conheço nenhum sítio aqui nas redondezas onde várias pessoas, s de vários sítios aqui nas redondezas se dêem tão bem, pois este é o sítio. Depois em relação à comida, essa é divinal, petiscos deliciosos, e sim, o atendimento é muito bom, o Renato é um excelente companheiro, sua Esposa, a Filipa, também o é. Venham, visitem e..... desfrutem.
