“ Servers are attentive. Affordable food. My friends recommended but not to my taste ”
“ This was our 2nd visit - one of my husband's friend told him that there's a good tulang merah and my husband didn't believe that there's such delicious tulang merah since we ever had it near our to our place but the taste was terrible with so many colouring on the sauce that left stain on your lip area and skin. We decided to visit 1 day after my husband was informed about this place and wanted to try it ourselves. Finally we recalled that we had a bad memory here before. We went here last year if I'm not mistaken and that's our 1st visit when we were so hungry and ordered some drink and prata but none of our order was coming until more than 20 mnts (we asked the status to the staff but yet still no good response and asked us to wait for another minute) so we decided to cancel our order and left this place. Our 2nd visit was beyond our expectation. The staff was friendly (not like in our 1st visit) and I believed the owner was so paid attention to the guest, with kept his eye on us without us felt observed or eyed and asked us to make sure that everything was okay. We ordered tulang merah 4 pcs (turned out 5 pcs came out) with amazing and super taste (wasn't like my old experience with the orangey kind of sauce but this more dark brown color), coin prata (6 pcs, tasted awesome and the smell of the butter was the best), sweet lassi (was okay), and chicken tandori and nasi biryani (too much spices I could tell). It was good experience for us! In the end we need to take home the nasi biryani and chicken tandori because we couldn't finish it that night and we cooked it the next day with pulling it out all the chicken and turned it to chicken fried rice with adding some rice and black sweet soy sauce. I highly recommend this place if you're looking for tulang merah and coin prata speciality. Thumbs up! ”
“ Quaint little place for Indian food. Drinks are nice, not too watered down. Been coming here for years every now and then to satisfy my prata crave. Food quality and taste is consistent and all reasonably priced. I usually go for tissue prata, kosong, cheese tosai. Sitting inside is better unless you don’t mind the people smoking beside the railings and near the tables. I prefer this to their noisy neighbour/competitior. ”

“ All food is delicious. The Tandoori is one of the best I had in my life. Compliments to the chef ”
