Strong ratings driven by staff warmth, tasty Malaysian and Asian dishes, and fair pricing on curry puffs, nasi lemak, and catering orders. Minor notes: one reviewer found a curry puff dry and overpriced; kitchen closures have limited breakfast options on some visits.

Reviewers consistently praise the craft behind drinks like monte blanc and dirty matcha, along with fresh savoury dishes like grilled chicken and onion rings. The space is clean and spacious with stable wifi, making it workable during quieter morning slots. Service and ambiance score well overall, though a few note the cafe can get loud at peak times. The team customizes dishes on request (vegetarian substitutions noted). Prices sit comfortably in the moderate range, with cappuccino at RM 10 and mains anchoring the value proposition. One caveat: some chicken dishes have arrived underseasoned or overcooked, suggesting execution dips occasionally on the hot savoury line.
