Food is great as always, but getting expensive. The sound levels were ok until the band started. Band is good but not great if you wish to have conversations!

It was a pleasant meal, nothing particularly memorable. Had the garlic prawn aglio olio… rather overpriced at $24++ and a super meh Kasturi Mint cocktail at $16++. They had also asked for a credit card to hold on to which I found surprising and unusual but I guess it’s still more of a bar/pub and drunk dine-and-dashers are not uncommon… But what if I don’t have any physical cards with me nor cash as I mostly use ApplePay ?! I’ve to leave my phone with them?

It was alright. We were there on a quieter day and with quite a few staff available/free, it felt like the staff was hovering which made meal time a bit uncomfortable especially when staff could’ve stood further away instead of directly behind us.

This is our first visit and we celebrated our 16 year old son’s birthday there. We ordered the burnt cheese cake as it’s the only cake there. The staff prepared a scoop of ice cream and a candle, got the live band to sing a birthday song! The food options are unique. The garlic prawn Aglio olio was yummy! The truffle fries were very crispy. The mocktail Strawberry Yummy tasted nice! The staff there were very friendly especially Imran! He was very helpful and created the surprise!

This place surprised me with the quality food it serves! Dishes that worth mentioning are: Mala Chicken Karaage, Mala Stingray, fish and chips and the oysters! The mala chicken karaage seriously mind blowing! Chicken is tender and juicy and the seasoning packs a punch which is also flavourful! It is my must-order whenever I visit this restaurant. Oysters are fresh and plump! Fish and chips has a twist and it surprises me that it goes so well with the mala paste! We enjoyed the live band, but wish that we were given a table further away from the stage as the music was too loud. The band did play 1-2 of our song dedications and that was great.

Having eaten at the Tipsy Flamingo in Raffles City, we decided to organize a birthday dinner here for my sister and her hubby. Prices were reasonable, and portions were generous, though the food was just mostly okay. They had two starters for $22, and we ordered the honey soy wings and fermented pork belly. The pork belly was tasty and crispy, especially with the mayo, but the chicken had some freezer burn. The seabass with truffle was nice, but was surprisingly a small dish for a main, without any carbs. The crabmeat capellini tasted nice, but the pasta was overcooked and therefore on the soggy side. We had two portions of the cornflake crusted chicken - the chicken did taste again of freezer burn, but this was largely hidden by the lovely sauce. The fries with truffles were delish. They do charge $1 for water, but this is refillable. The iced lemon tea came out of a can, while the Erdinger was okay. Overall, it was an okay meal in a pub like atmosphere, with dark lighting and friendly staff.

Some of the food items aren't bad. If you're looking for a place to chit chat then this isn't the place for you.
