It looks good on the outside, and the menu pictures look tempting. But it's mostly deep fried pre-prepared food. Crumbed seafood from Birdseye type of stuff. But you can get a drink (which you can't always in KL) and service is fairly quick and efficient. There's another one that looks the same in Penang. Oh, and it looks as if... More

Old worldly decor, might look a bit run down, but for us it added to the great vibe. Great food at reasonable prices. We had a great time and will definately visit again if we're in KL again. More

Strange...It reminds me of a family restaurant in USA back in the 70s. The menu was very old fashioned, but cheerful. More

Totally rundown restaurant and with no intention for any refurbishment or improvement. Food is mediocre. I could cook a better steak than they do. More

Made 2 visits over 4 days in KL. First time I had sizzling chicken, my wife had the salmon. Second visit I had the basic fillet steak, as I am not too keen on sauces and my wife had the black pepper steak, both excellent. More

Dropped in on a Suturday night. Had the steak, which was ok but came with gravy. Staff were attentative and pretty efficient. Price was ok too. If you want nothing too fancy, then this place will do. More
