Reviews
"Food in itself was really good, the skewers and the bao bread with fried crab I highly recommend. Cocktails are not great in my opinion, they could improve that. Service is quick and good, lovely design very modern and contemp. However the bathrooms were horribly dirty for such a nice restaurant."
"I really wanted to love this place but it gets 1 star for its customer service. Staff need basic customer service training. Everyone knows you get your drinks not long after ordering and that meals should come together so that people can eat together. We got our drinks almost an hour after ordering and after 2 dishes had arrived. The drinks weren’t complicated so should have been quick. They also didn’t ask if we wanted to order more drinks throughout the meal. They told us we had an hour and a half to eat but the last course came almost an hour and a half after we arrived and it was the fried rice. It was strange how they brought out the fried rice last as we wanted the rice to go with our other dishes. We didn’t want to eat it on its own. Food and drinks took sooo long to arrive. The atmosphere was nice but food was average, I thought it was going to be great based on all the reviews. I don’t understand why the ratings are so high."
"You’ll be like “Wowww” when you visit this place. The food was alright. It’s designed like a bar and dining on the other side. Good place to catch up with friends. We got the fried rice (big portion), but it was salty. The scallop and oysters are alright. Salt and pepper squid is so good. 6.5/10 for food. Vibes 9/10."
