Leonardo has closed down this place and moved to another new place called P.E.C - portoellenclan.com. He has established a very good restaurant in a neighbourhood of few other restaurants. Seek and you will find.

We are staying in an apartment literally 100 steps away from Vineria i Santi. Before reading the reviews we would not have given the restaurant a second look. Now we are very glad that we sought it out. To start, the restaurant is small and...More
