A highlight is the 21-day aged steak from the Josper grill, cooked at 400 degrees Celsius, which is appreciated for its juicy texture and intense flavor – often served with a spicy chimichurri sauce. Equally popular are the handmade wood-fired pizzas, such as the truffle and wild mushroom variant, which impresses with its crispy crust and aromatic toppings.
