We'd heard so much about this venue, and took the opportunity to have an early dinner there one Saturday. The atmosphere is really quite lovely, we had a cosy corner and attentive staff.. although it must be said that one of the wait staff was a little OVER attentive, striking up a conversation and then grilling us about our holiday...

We'd heard such positive reviews about this place from friends in KL. Booking a table on the phone for a Friday night confirmed that we were in for a treat - friendly, well spoken staff called right back to confirm the booking. On arrival, the place and ambience was great and what we expected. And then it began... Staff had... More

TLWB is becoming something of a Penang institution and on the Saturday evening we visited it was packed out. Its more about the bistro-like menu than the wine as the food is very inventive and well done. The owners are both out front helping to serve and meeting and greeting very professionally. I have only tried their wines by the... More

We had really excellent food here, arriving rather late on the evening of our arrival in Penang. Service was good, although the male waiter needs a bit more training. Only real downside was although this is a wine bar, wine is sold almost entirely by the bottle and options for wine by the glass were limited to House. More

I visited The Little Wine bar just the other night. My Malaysian friend I was visiting had fallen in love with good steaks while visiting me in the US so I thought I would treat him to dinner. The food was excellent. The atmosphere, so-so, there were only two other tables taken the night we were there and the lighting... More

After walking around it was good to enjoy a glass of wine. More expensive than is Cambodia or Vietnam, but the range of choice is OK, and given the context it is a good idea. More
