What recent reviews say

Cafe Tujoh draws crowds for its aesthetic appeal and pasta dishes, yet staff hostility dominates recent feedback. Advance orders help, but reviewers consistently report condescending waiters and portions that don't justify the premium pricing. The kitchen can deliver when given clear instructions, but the experience hinges heavily on which staff member serves you.

Recent shift: A cluster of poor service reviews appeared three to four weeks ago, with one very critical recent review citing staff rudeness, suggesting possible operational or staffing issues in that period. Earlier five-star reviews exist, but negative sentiment has intensified and concentrated in the most recent weeks.

Oh My Belly Petaling Jaya (Cafe and Brunch)

Generous chicken chops and family-friendly vibe keep regulars returning, with most meals and drinks hitting the mark at fair prices. However, repeated air-con breakdowns, frozen or bland dishes, and erratic service during lunch rushes have soured recent visits, and several reviewers note the menu and food quality have noticeably slipped. The brunch and comfort-food lineup works well when execution is sharp, but operational inconsistencies (especially climate control and kitchen speed) undermine the experience. Staff responsiveness to problems is uneven, and portion sizes sometimes disappoint despite the headline chicken chop being praised as huge.

Staff charm and creative cocktails keep people coming back to this upstairs spot near Happy Mansion, where the beef bourguignon and pork ribs earn consistent praise. Yet execution falters: a 40-minute wait for pasta with no barista on shift, dishes that disappoint, and service that swings from warm to forgetful. On the right night, worth lingering; on the wrong one, you'll regret the time invested. Menu draws diners seeking romance and Instagram moments, from smoked duck to mapo tofu lasagne, though truffle fries feel mass-produced. Cocktails shine (smoked cinnamon latte stands out), but ambition without consistency leaves some feeling short-changed. Visit for the vibe and wine knowledge, but manage expectations on execution.

Blue Dahlia draws serious crowds for Peranakan comfort food and handmade kuih, with desserts like cendol and pandan coconut cake earning particular praise. Yet recent visits reveal frustrating inconsistencies: lengthy queues, staff reluctance to accommodate basic requests (extra plates), variable kuih texture and flavor, and one customer finding the shop unexpectedly closed despite phoning ahead. Quality shines on good days; service and operations do not.
