The owners are friendly and make it a point (based on my past experience having visited the restaurant twice) to ensure that their customers are comfortable and enjoying their meals. The roasted pork was crispy and was a perfect match with the garlic and in-house sauce. I particularly like the wok hey of the Hokkien mee. Overall, a pleasant dining experience.

Valet parking available right outside restaurant. Food tasted decent though the small portion of Kai Lan was really small, like palm size portion. Wait staff service were efficient. Waiting time for food was also reasonable given the resto was busy. However, some small flies were hovering over a set of cutlery/utensils at our table. Gents was also dirty and smelly with someone smoking inside. Need to step up on hygiene. Bill came up to slightly more than $100 with 2 meats (both small portions), 2 vegetables (1 medium, 1 small portion), two main carb dish (both small), tea and appetiser for 5 pax. Overall ok experience and might visit again if in the vicinity.

Two of us ordered 5 dishes--Salted-Baked Flower Crabs; Deep-fried pork belly marinated with fermented bean paste; Roast Irish duck; KL Hokkien Noodles; Kai Lan. (1) On Ch 8 variety show, the lady boss told millions of viewers that the plate of 4 baked flower crabs cost less than $40. However, when placing our order, we were told that 2 small flower crabs will cost about $40. (2) The so-called Irish duck that was served to us did not taste like Irish duck, tasted more like ordinary duck. It also did not look like the yummy roast duck featured on TV! (3) The deep-fried pork belly had more fat than meat. (4) The waitress recommended kai lan for our vegetables dish without telling us the kai lan would be deep-fried. Both of us are health-conscious people and will never deep-fry our vegetables. We always have blanches or stir-fry vegetables. (5) At other restaurants, a small serving of noodles is usually enough to fill up 3 or 4 small bowls FULL. Over here, a small serving of KL Hokkien noodles could only fill up 2 small bowls NON-FULL! Quantity is too little and unjustified for the price charged. (6) When placing order, I requested for less salt, less oil and no MSG. However, when all our 5 dishes were served to us, every dish was very salty. Usually restaurants will add a lot of salt to dishes when ingredients are not fresh. Both of us find the food there disappointing despite strong recommendation by the 2 TV hosts and guests.

Good service & ambience although location tucked in north of the island. (Chose this place for son’s convenience who’s doing reservist). Food tastes average notwithstanding the longevity mini buns, yam ring & hotplate venison taste great!

The table near to the entrance is very noisy especially a big drum is just place behind our table. Kids come by to play the drum. Suggest table should not place at the corner.

Made a reservation early and managed to get a private room for my mum's birthday celebration. Staff were very friendly and attentive, service was great. Food was yummy and ordered some based on staff recommendation. Try the crispy roast pork belly, charcoal tofu, oven baked fire chicken and salt baked flower crab!

Food were overpriced and too salty for my liking. Portion was miserable. Generally, food quality was only ok but not great. Don't believe everything you saw on TV show helmed by local celebrities. They will always be full of praises and not criticisms. Half an Irish duck for $38 !!!! I may as well head down to the famous Chan Kwong Kee (S'pore) Roast at Loyang where the price is S$48.00 for 1 fully grown duck. Customer service staff attitude was friendly and good though but certainly not the food.

I personally find that the Hokkien noodle was not impressive.. it was too sweet.. I visited as the variety show 午餐吃什么 recommended it. On the show, the lady boss mentioned 4 flower crabs for less than $50 but I was billed $41 for 2 crabs. I felt disappointed and cheated in this case.
