The restaurant's limited selection, consisting of just a few meals, has left guests longing for greater variety. The pricing also draws attention, with some questioning the value of menu items, such as beverages. There is a consensus that the restaurant requires more attention, especially in comparison to other resorts, with focus needed on enhancing the menu's diversity and reasonability of prices.
