Setting and experience was top notch
The concert and setting were perfection. It was dinner first and then the concert, which wasn’t what I was expecting. The restaurant manager was charming and engaging. The concert was actually very intimate and the fortress was enchanting. Exceeded my expectations and not touristy at all. The only drawback was our inexperienced waiter. Otherwise it would get 5 stars.

Lovely
The funicular was a great start to a wonderful dinner with both excellent service and delicious food. The concert itself was terrific. Only suggestion is to prohibit filming as the knucklehead in the front row with his camera out the whole time detracted from the otherwise enchanting performance.
