What recent reviews say

Food and ambiance draw regulars, but staff attitude swings wildly. Smoked duck pasta and tom yam cream spaghetti impress when the kitchen focuses; cakes and cheesecake earn praise. Book ahead for lunch to secure pre-order advantages. However, multiple recent reviews cite waitstaff behaving dismissive or condescending, particularly when customers ask questions or near closing time. Pricing feels steep for portion sizes, and parking is tight. Service quality appears to depend heavily on which staff member serves you.

Recent shift: A sharp decline in staff service sentiment emerged around 3-4 weeks ago: five one-star reviews in one cluster all cite rude, dismissive, or condescending behaviour. Earlier reviews (1-2 months ago) mention service inconsistency but at lower intensity. This suggests either a staffing change, burnout, or management shift around that time.

Praised for
  • good food quality when executed well
  • nice aesthetic and environment
  • attentive service when staff engaged
  • creative dishes (smoked duck, tom yam pasta)
Watch-outs
  • rude and dismissive staff attitude
  • inconsistent service quality
  • expensive pricing relative to portions
  • parking difficult or non-existent

Busy lunch spot popular for its generous chicken chops and fair pricing, though recent diners report a noticeable drop in food quality and consistency. Service slows badly during peak hours, and multiple visits mention broken or inadequate air conditioning, leaving the dining room uncomfortably hot. Strengths lie in portions and atmosphere for casual family meals, but critics flag the watery mushroom soup, dry frozen chicken, and bland sauces as signs of corner-cutting. Returning customers feel let down by what used to be a more varied menu.

Most visits deliver cosy interiors, inventive cocktails, and dishes like beef bourguignon and duck confit that impress. Service and kitchen timing swing wildly: some diners praise attentive staff and quick service; others wait 40 minutes for pasta in an empty cafe, or sit 25 minutes unwarned while food stalls. A reviewer noted salted egg pasta can be oversweetened and pork chop dry on off days. Worth the trip for cocktails and the Instagram-worthy decor, but go when you have time and manage expectations on food consistency. The menu reads like a passion project mixing global ideas (unagi rice, mapo tofu lasagne, duck confit) and Petaling Jaya staples. Wine knowledge is a strength. Upstairs location next to Happy Mansion. Peak experience when you're not in a rush.
