What do recent reviews say?

Most reviewers describe a calm, cozy cafe with soft jazz or vinyl music and good coffee. The egg pudding and Sibeh Dirty Latte come up again and again. Staff are often called friendly, and the owner Sam is praised for knowing his coffee.

Weekends get crowded and noisy, with waits of 20 minutes or more at busy times. One reviewer found dust and a loose-looking ceiling board, and another disliked cakes left out on the counter. Weekday visits sound calmer.

Underscore Coffee

4.4(621)✓ Google-verified

Reviewers praise the coffee and the friendly team. Many say the atmosphere feels cozy and calm. Lunch and late-morning visits can get crowded, so arriving early helps. The praise is strongest for drinks like the seasonal brew and dirty latte, plus rosti and a pet cat named Haru. Several recent diners say portions shrank and prices rose after a menu change. One reviewer also disliked a detergent smell and loud chair stacking near closing.

Petiteserie Bakery & Cafe @ Ara Damansara

4.6(486)✓ Google-verified

Reviewers in Ara Damansara keep coming back to the croissants and pastries, which many call light and buttery. The staff get consistent praise for being warm and welcoming, and the comfy room feels good for a sit-down bite. The menu covers coffee, salads, pasta, chicken chop, and gelato, so it works for lunch as well as dessert. Parking is a common gripe, the room gets loud when full, and a few guests find the prices high.

Tealive Petronas Ara Damansara

3.4(123)✓ Google-verifiedPublishes prices

Drinks arrive well-made on good days, but the Petronas Ara Damansara outlet struggles with basic service. Staff frequently disappear without warning or signs, leave customers waiting 15+ minutes with no one at the counter, and treat orders as a burden rather than a responsibility. Inventory is unreliable: items promised on the menu vanish without explanation, and boba clumps or arrives partially cooked. Multiple reviewers encountered closed doors at listed opening times or near-stated closing times. Repeat visits reveal patterns rather than flukes. The shift atmosphere feels hostile to customers-staff avoid eye contact, skip greetings, don't confirm drink preferences, and display visibly poor moods. One reviewer waited hours for a Grab order only to find the counter empty. Google hours do not match actual opening times. Unless management drastically improves scheduling and staff training, visits here carry high risk of wasted time and poor quality.
