Staff treat regulars and new arrivals with genuine warmth, and the kitchen delivers crispy chicken, carbonara, and bagels in portions that satisfy.

Most visitors praise the Petronas Twin Towers view from the rooftop and second floor, especially in evening light, paired with well-executed drinks and cake. Staff earn consistent mention for kindness; breakfast and specialty items like Basque cheesecake and matcha drive return trips, though seating is tight and the venue takes card payments only.

Most visits deliver quick, flavourful food in a relaxed setting, but recent months have seen inconsistent service. Two recent visitors encountered staff who ignored bell presses and didn't acknowledge orders, while another found the cafe already closing at 9 despite a posted 10pm time. The core draw remains solid cooking (Korean dishes, waffles with heavy fillings), though at a price that does not always match the small space and limited table count.

A go-to breakfast spot in KLCC with a loyal following that returns weekly for fresh sandwiches, quality coffee, and ice americano. The location behind Uniqlo feels like a quiet escape from mall traffic, and the team-including manager Fairuza, Amirul, and Fai-knows regular customers by name and order.
