" Tried a couple of Laksa's, Sarawak and Kuching plus rice and a vegetable dish.
24 May 2018Fast and pleasant service, uncrowded and peaceful setting only meters from the waterfront. "

" the location is very nice with a view on the garden and river side, but the food I ordered was not very good (local yellow curry is more of a brown noodle soup, not very curry like, and with a strong sweet taste I personnally didn't like.. and the "fresh calamansi juice" is actually just a sweet syrup). prices are ok though, and the staff was professional and helpful when asked for directions.

" Food here is good. A great place to meet friends for lunch or tea. Strategically located by the riverfront, you won't miss it! "

" The Mbia CE of the place is good. It is conveniently located on the riverfront almost opposite Hilton Kuching. The ambiance is good but the food is nothing to look forward to. Go there for a drink not for the food. "

" Great location overlooking the river and a nice atmosphere but we thought the drinks were overpriced and not that nice. Their cocktail list does not really contain cocktails but rather 5 drinks that are really just mixers (rum+coke/gin+tonic etc). So it depends on what you're wanting to drink as whether it's a good spot for you "

" Service was not that great. Lack of staff guess. Taking an order have to wait quite long for the waiter come out. "

" Superb location, overlooking the river. Food is good (recommended to travellers) that would like to have a taste of local food, and be away from the local option in town. I was happy with the Sarawak laksa (heavy but not to spicy) and beers are served to perfection... the staff is very friendly, but the day I went I believe they were understaffed and I had to deal with some wait. "

" Slow and rude service. 45 mins to get our starter which was cold. One staff member is helpful, the rest totally ignore you even when looking straight at you asking for soy sauce. Over priced. Very limited menu. Location is good, everything else is shocking. Big regret coming to this restaurant "

28 April 2017Kevin Jenkins
" Good mix of local and western food in a great location by the river - especially at night. "
12 April 2017Sebastian Mineo
" The atmosphere is rather unique, rustic in a way. Nothing fancy but it feels right. Open air with many fans, no air conditioning in this place but I haven't found it uncomfortable. It's on the Sarawak River which sometimes provides a breeze and adds to the ambiance. The food that I've had is simple but tasty. Both local and international foods but, like I said, simple "comfort" food. Service can be a bit slow but always friendly. I've had beer there and seen wine, not sure about the hard stuff. It's also reasonably priced. Highly recommended. "

" Relaxed atmosphere in a stunning river front location. Great food options with western food choices as well as others with a local flavour. "
26 March 2017Yong Ching Kiong
" A beautiful and quiet place for a refreshing drink or beer. A lot of history by the name of James Brooke for the place of Sarawak. "

" Had to wait 30 minute before anyone acknowledged us to take our order, and now have been waiting 40 minutes for our food which has still not arrived. And no one is apologetic about it or a. Even if the food is amazing, it will not make it this appalling service. "
