"The best ayam gepuk I’ve had. The chicken was crispy on the outside, juicy inside, and full of flavour. Sambal was heavenly spicy but addictive with the cashew . Portion was generous and the food came out fresh and hot. Staff were friendly and service was fast. Definitely a place I’d come back to again."

"Solid ayam gepuk. Portion was good and service is decent. A lot of tables to sit and even has an outdoor seating. Has been a regular here since last month. Its just that waiting time during peak hour may be quite long and it is up to 30 minutes but they will inform you before you ordered the food."
