What do recent reviews say?

Walk in expecting understated vegetarian food that rivals KL's best, with portions so generous you'll need to pace yourself. Staff greet you like regulars even on your first visit, the dining room stays quiet enough for three-hour work sessions, and dishes like seitan skewers, Three Cup Mushrooms, and XO noodles hit flavour notes that linger. Prices hover around RM18-36 for mains, which reviewers call fair given the quality and heap of food. Parking can be tight, so plan ahead if you're driving.

Most visits deliver solid food, cosy surroundings, and prompt service that keeps people coming back. The kitchen handles ambitious dishes well-waffles, chicken chop, biryani, specialty teas-and staff warmth tends to be genuine. Delivery orders and occasional counter interactions have stumbled, though these gaps appear isolated rather than systemic. Recent five-star reviews dominate, outweighing older complaints about strudel packing and cashier tone. The cafe has built real loyalty: regulars praise generous portions and menu creativity alongside the comfortable vibe and prices that don't sting. Quality seems steadier now than it did a few months back.
