We've recently been and tried their salt and pepper calamari. It was perfect! Besides the food indulgence, you can get a decent glass or bottle of wine at a reasonable price. In addition, there's a jungly gym which keeps the littles ones occupied in a completely safe and enclosed environment. So, while they play, you chill and drink wine. Not bad :)
