    Für mich war das Utopia vollkommen überbewertet. Ich kann die vielen guten Bewertungen nicht verstehen. Das Essen war maximal Durchschnitt. Der Kellner war sehr nett und der Blick ist atemberaubend. Das war’s dann aber auch schon.

    Celebrated my friends birthday and had an amazing dinner. The food was delicious. The ambiance of the evening was amazing, we chose a table overlooking the harbour, what a view.. We will absolutely return.

    The views are amazing, the food was good. It is such a lovely place and staff was super friendly it’s not easy to find but I guess that makes it a hidden gem!!! Definitely coming back here.

    We had a fabulous meal, the sommelier was great, very informative and his recommendations were excellent. Service was a little disappointing and music too loud despite us asking twice for it to be turned down. When I claimed that my vegetables were raw they offered a delicious free dessert which I thought was a very good gesture. Will definitely be going back
