What recent reviews say

Molten Chocolate Cafe draws repeat customers for their chocolate quality and thoughtful service, especially for celebrations. However, pricing sits at the top end (mineral water charges RM5.90, crepes over RM25), and recent reviews flag inconsistent execution-oversweetness in some items, ventilation issues, and occasional undercooked cakes-that undermine the premium positioning.

Recent shift: A year or more ago, reviews praised chocolate consistency and balanced sweetness. Recent reviews (last 6 months) increasingly flag oversweetness, ventilation problems, and pricing concerns, suggesting either a decline in execution or more critical customer feedback over time.

Praised for
  • chocolate quality and taste consistency
  • balanced flavours (not overwhelmingly sweet)
  • clean space and hygienic bathrooms
  • staff attentiveness and custom touches
  • beautiful ambiance
Watch-outs
  • prices felt steep relative to portion size
  • heavy oil/food smell and poor ventilation
  • inconsistent texture and sweetness levels across menu
  • some items undercooked or poorly executed
  • charged for bottled water instead of complimentary service water

Best for: chocolate lovers willing to pay premium for celebration-worthy desserts and service.
Think twice if: You are budget-conscious or sensitive to strong food smells and poor air circulation in eating spaces.

Strengths

  • consistent chocolate flavour and quality
  • custom touches for celebrations (handwritten messages, candles)
  • clean and pleasant interior
  • attentive staff

Worth knowing

  • Staff have offered handwritten messages and candles for birthday occasions
  • Mineral water charged at RM5.90 per 500ml bottle rather than offered complimentary
  • Crepes priced from RM25+
  • Reported oil/food smell sticks to clothes due to inadequate ventilation
  • Some customers reported molten cakes undercooked (mostly cake shell, minimal actual cake content)

Soylab draws crowds for its soy-forward desserts: soufflé pancakes and soft serve are fluffy and high-quality, the interior is clean and spacious, and the menu breadth appeals to browsers. Yet equipment breakdowns leave signature items missing without warning, and staff struggle to communicate shortages upfront, frustrating visits when you came specifically for one dish. Topping choices sometimes clash with the main item.
