The service was really slow and the food took awfully long when there weren’t a lot of people.
The food was honestly really horrible and so was the service. It was extremely slow!!
The place is located inside the hotel and alfresco area is great in the late evening ... lot of breeze surronded by good greenery.Service and food is awsome and proces are reasonable.
Very friendly staff. The chef came out of the kitchen to meet us for feedback. Manager building rapport with patron. Excellent service. Will strongly recommend to my friend.
We had carbonara and spring chicken. Both were satisfactory though the sauce for the chicken wasn't quite tasty and the veggies on the side were pretty raw. Service was slow considering there wasn't much crowd. Staff can be a little more smiley? It seems like we were imposing on them by going there for lunch.
with purchase of a discounted voucher this place was really affordable. the food is however pretty standard western fare so dont expect to be blown over. like the tranquility of this place which makes you feel like youre on holiday
bad service, food so-so. Need to train staff more. Beer tower pathetic. Staff informed no parking no smoking area, if caught your own problem.. portion of food very very small
Ordered lamb chops which arrived almost 10 minutes after the other 2 guests meals arrived and the lamb was freezing cold. Tasted and looked as if they had been cooked a good few hours earlier.
Nice place to chill and delicious food. Will recommend this place
Food is not bad but service is very slow due to shortage of staff. They should improve on their speed of ordering & prompt services.
it is a very pleasant restaurant with wonderful ambience. i personally find that the location is very good as near my house. definitely a recommended restaurant.
The steak which we ate were nicely done and tasted great and worth the money for it. With the 1-for-1 promotion that is now on it is definitely good value for money. The staff were also helpful and friendly.
The quality of the food served, and the standard of the service provided. were both above average. I was satisfied with the overall experience there.
value for money as i am using groupon vouchers quality of food especially the steak is good i also like the long opening hours , up to 1130pm for groupon use else it is open for 24hours great place to chill
The food was not so fantastic, found a strand of hair in my drink too. It was hard to communicate with some of the staff.
Peaceful environment. However, the appetisers that we ordered was a bit cold. Staffs can be more attentive to customers. Food overall is okay and price is decent for Valentine's Day.
Food was good. The only issue was the shortage of manpower that caused a long waiting time for food to be served. Will be back again for their food.
Great ambience, good and prompt service, with excellent tasting food, at very affordable prices. The wagyu burger isba definite must try, and the sirloin steak was really tender and juicy.
Enjoyed the finger food and quiet and comfortable environment that is suitable for a cosy mid afternoon meet up with friends in the West part of Singapore.
Food is rather tasty but the service is a little bit slow as they seem to be understaffed. Hence, the waiting time for food to be served is rather long.
Staffs are really polite. They helping me and my girlfriend with taking a few photos. And the food was definitely satisfying for the price. Went there during their 1 for 1 period and it was certainly value for money! Recommend to come again.
Pleasantly surprised by the quality of their steak (medium rare). Though those using groupons should be wary as there is clear discrimination(truffles fries vs normal fries) in their dishes for those using offers.

Went there on a Sunday afternoon for lunch and totally regretted. Service was totally bad, dropped an email about the lack of service and there has not been any reply. Not worth going at all.
The staff were extremely friendly and helpful😊😊 The food was delicious and the service was excellent! I would definitely recommend everyone to go here! 😄😄
We weren't aware that the whole indoor area was pre-booked for a party and when we arrived, we had to sit outdoors which was kind of hot. Also it would be good if the food was served faster. It took a long time like about 20-25mins for it to be served.

Cosy & relaxing ambience. Food quality is great. Good portion and great value for money. Service staff needs to practise more smiling. Will definitely be back again.
Quality of food was good, but service is rather slow and staff tend to forget about customer's request and did not come back with what we requested (e,g straw for drinks).
The place is quiet for people to meet and chat, I came to know this place because of the ladies card,I kind of think it's understaffed for a moment at the beginning but after midway it is better. Food was nice
Service was very slow and food was so so. The waiter actually forgot to put our food order in and the food took about 45 min to arrive
The location is near to MRT which took about 10-15 min to reach the restaurant. Ambiance is quite relaxing and the staff are friendly except the pricing is higher than I expected. Overall the meal does not worth the price it charged. Taste of food a bit salty which not suitable for old folk.
Service and ambience was great! The service staff were attentive to our requests and made sure that the food that was served was top notched. Highly recommended and would go there again for the value-for-money menu.
Great service and nice ambiance! Food not only tasty and appetizing to the sight but also to the tummy! Perfect for friend gatherings, dates, parties.
Conveniently located, Cali Cafe is a chill and quiet place which is great for hang outs. With the 1 for 1 discount on mains, the food was decent.
Friendly service. Food was delivered quickly. Cali wings were crisp on the outside and juicy and flavourful on the inside. Haagen daz ice cream is always nice, but portion was a bit small.
Great experience. Quiet and nice food. Good to have gathering there. The place is cozy. The view is nice. Food was unexpectedly good. Near to MRT..
Delicious food and great company. Staff could be a little bit more attentive as needed to ask for menu. But nice location and decor, will lunch there again, thank you.
Poor and slow service, food quality was sub-standard and order took 45 minutes even though restaurant was not crowded. When asked if he could check on the order, he just said it will be ready soon without even checking with kitchen. Non-commital, cold, and can't care less attitude by head waiters / store manager in checked shirts was most disappointing. In fact, junior waiters were more responsive and alert to customers' requests. Food wise, the potatoes that came with the lobster Thermidor was hard and cold. The rice that came with the tiger prawns was cold and dry and tasteless. First and last time there for sure!
Very good deal with Groupon for the 3 course meal. Serving size was a lot and starter chicken wings were fantastic. I chose the salmon for main course it was huge but a bit tasteless. Overall the service were attentive but the time taken to serve the food can be improved.
Food was good but the experience was jagged by the fact that you need to pay extra for drinks, which was quite on the high end
We are not serve until we go over to the counter and request. Without asking they only provide us with the limited for Groupon voucher customer order list. Upon request after explaining than they allow us to order other food from the menu.
I bought the set lunch groupon voucher. For $14.90, you had a choice of 1 of 3 appetisers - 1 samosa, 2 pieces of bruschetta or 4 mid-joint wings, a main of either sirloin steak with fries, grilled salmon with mash potato or chicken tikka wakhanwala with rice and a slice of mango passion cake. Cali Café is located in the Park Avenue Rochester. On a weekday afternoon, it was a quaint little restaurant that could easily be passed by without people noticing it. It seems like a nice, quiet and comfortable place to sit and chill with your colleagues over a beer after a long day’s work if you happen to work in the area. We ordered the wings, bruschetta, salmon and steak. The bruschetta served consisted of 2 slices topped with diced tomato and cucumber. Nothing out of the ordinary but quite palatable. The wings were served crispy and hot, just the way fried wings should be. The salmon was served with some boiled vegetable and quite a generous serving of mashed potato. The filet of salmon was very big and thick. It was moist and nicely seasoned with the skin cooked to crispy perfection. The steak had a nice colour all around and while it could have been a little more tender, it did taste nice and juicy with the accompanying layer of fat. The mushroom sauce had pretty big visible pieces of sautéed onions and mushrooms and complemented the steak well. By the time we reached dessert, we were already quite full so we were quite glad to see that the slice of cake was just a small square piece drizzled with chocolate and strawberry sauce. The cake was probably just taken out of the freezer as the middle layer of mango passion mousse was rock hard. It tasted all right but the texture of the cake was just rock solid.
I had a set dinner meal with 4 pieces chicken wings a steak with fries and sago dessert (u may choose other options). Foods generally good portions not too small but I found a small piece of foreign material (not sure what it is looks like a wire piece) in the side salad with the steak. Unfortunately I put it in my mouth but did not swallow it but felt disgusted since not sure if it was clean and where did it come from. Kitchen can be more careful of their hygiene standard.
Not great but not bad. Service and food were average, not quite worth the prices. Had the steak, which had an oddly processed texture, and the iced mocha which was too sweet. The wings were very well-seasoned, though, despite their unremarkable appearance. Ambiance is nice enough during off-peak hours.
Used Groupon voucher and the 3 course meal was good value for money. Disappointed with Portobello mushroom (apetitiser) which was a miserable-looking overcooked item and a ripoff at $12. Minimum service in a cafe-styled ambience, lest inviting for a second visit...
Food was decent. Had to set through Groupon offer. Was of good value. Wine was of great value @ $20 per bottle. Will definitely go back.
Good food and the service was great! We had the cali wings, steak and passion fruit cake set which was really value for money. Enjoyed my experience there.
