It was unfortunate that we were the only guests in the restaurant, which was underground and lacked any ambiance. Having said that, the food was simple but very tasty, good portion size. The service was good, probably because we were the centre of attention.

Nasi Lemak dish so terrible, presentation are good. But the rice is too dry. I can see the dry rice grains not holding together. Normally rice once is cooked are soft and moist. Very disappointed It’s look like been re-heat in the oven. We were lunch at noon time around 12:30 pm. Very dissatisfied ! It’s my first also a last to visit. Won’t go there again.

The restaurant was closing when we reached at the appointment timing (9.15pm). We were told that they had nt received the reservation. Nevertheless they allowed us to dine in, the restaurant staff was kind & helpful. Food portion was kind of too big, but taste delicious.

Good choice of starters - recommend both the duck and the squid. There was good variety in the main courses - our particular choice of chicken was a little bland. Service was friendly and helpful - staff made good recommendations. If you are staying in the hotel the restaurant is a quite, casual, easy going place which makes you feel welcome.
