Foods was all organic and using the freshest ingredients! Very beautiful presentation of the dishes that we tried. And such a healthy alternative to the usual stuff! Our dishes had minimal oil and were cooked lightly with not too much sauce, it was very tastey nonetheless. After eating here I just felt so healthy! The prices was a bit expensive tho. Definitely coming here again

I don't understand why there are so many good review on this restaurant. The food is OK ,wouldn't say it's amazing. The prices are way too expensive. The serving sizes are so small. I guess the atmosphere is pretty good. But overall not worth coming here. This place is for meat eaters btw .so don't come here if u want a few veges at least

Came here yesterday.cannot complain about the food , came with large group of friends and tried a bit of everyone's dishes and I can say that they all tasted great. Very rich in flavour, which is why I would recommend ordering an extra bowl of rice for each dish u order. The atmosphere wasn't great,the tables and chairs are tiny and not extremely comfortable, also there was no toilet available. Though the food tasted great it was very disappointing that the serving sizes were tiny. Wasn't even half full-and im a small woman. Way over priced for the amount of food that u get. Had to order two mains and an extra bowl of rice to fill me up :,( overall the place is ok.

I'm quite surprised as to how many good reviews this restaurant has achieved on this site I've come here once about a yr ago and was sure I wouldn't come again. The food was disastrous and tasted really odd. Like a mix between Thai Chinese and western, all sweet sour and biter salty flavours all mixed together in one dish. If ur the type who enjoys strangely flavoured food then u may like this. The price was very expensive and the service wasn't great , especially as we came on a busy night. The atmosphere or enviornment wasn't especially nice either.

Very nice quality food. Freshly cooked and very authentic Chinese and Vietnamese cuisines. The presentations of the dishes were very impressive and were large in size as well. The food was healthy, not too oily but still rich in flavour. The service was great, the staff were helpful and knew the menu off by heart. Only negative -food bit overpriced. Would definitely come here again

Great food, great service. But atmosphere isn't too new. Furniture bit old. But none the less place was hygienic. Not too much variety in the food but ok for a once in a while visit. The pizzas were very nice with very crusty edges and we asked for extra sauce which was available as well. Would recommend for family outing but not a romantic date

Very comfortable seating arrangements here, the chefs are dedicated to making fine bakery! The croissants are always fresh and hot when I buy them, and they can accommodate to personal needs, I asked for extra pepper and cheese for mine which they were happy to offer at an extra cost of a dollar. The prices are affordable and perfect for a quick dine in lunch. I'll definitely be coming here again

I love the coffee here, they do it in cute little cups with pretty patterns on top too. The baristas were patient with me when I had personal requests for my coffee, I,.e with soya bean milk etc and less sugar. They are dog friendly and I often come here with my dog after a walk, it has a nice and open atmosphere, very refreshing and relaxing to enjoy a cup of coffee here either on a lazy sunday afternoon or after a long tiresome day t work!

Absolutely one of the top restaurants I've been to. Breathtaking view, excellent quality freshly cooked tastey food, and best customer service. The staff were friendly from the moment we walked into the restaurant and offered a seat with great scenery. The dessert was delicious, particularly the authentic tiramisu -soft and spongy but not too damp, also with strong rum aroma. The Italian pasta was authentic and serving size was huge. Definitely will come here again but only for special occasions because it is very pricey!!

Poor customer service, the food comes out quickly but something is always missing from the order. Eg. Have to always ask for cutlery separately and also need to get napkins by myself, and when asked for salt/pepper they took a long time to supply it. I also think the food wasn't very fresh, some of it was cold when it came out, I asked for the dish to be remade but when they replaced the dish it looked like nothing had changed. The food is very oily as well, not impressed overall, won't be coming here again
