Food was good though there was delay for the laksa. However, service recovery was quick in offering deep-fried soft-shelled crabs to us. Given complimentary ondeh2 cake with ice-cream.

Food was great, unique and a full bodied experience for the mains, smoked duck pasta and fried rice but for starters, truffle fries, a complete disappointment for the price. Portion was good. Service wasnt attentive and the staffs were caught up doing their own things. In addition to that, when one of the staff was asking our opinion of the food, he could have atleast bent down slightly like most service staffs would do considering that he’s already very tall and we were seated so we were talking to his stomach… For the exorbitant price, it is expected to provide a certain degree of exceptional service. Atmosphere was alright, music choice not the best. Overall experience could have been better. They provided us complimentary desserts to dine in and an additional for take-out. A gesture we appreciated.

The food is more on a fusion kind which is not quite suitable for my taste bud as I expected an more authentic experience. However, the service from the staff is definitely commendable

Visited on Valentine's Day and restaurant was severely understaffed. They forgot about our beef wellington and we waited close to 45 mins for it, no apology was given. Will not recommend!

They have a great taste and portion. Only if the eggplant they can cut into small portions will be awesome. They did not disappoint us with free cakes when check out!

Food was pretty average.. my rice for my risotto was hard. Most of my guests did not even finish their food. And one of my guests waited so long for his food while some of us have ended our meal when his came.

We visited on the evening of 27 June. Food portions were huge and the service was impeccable. Staff had taken the initiative to ask if we would like to take away the leftovers and also attended to our queries promptly. The only downside was a huge party that visited the same evening and the noise levels were loud. This however was of no fault by the staff and their service and food made the evening a pleasant one.
