Great service, atmosphere and value. I visited Sunday dinner. Jazz band was awesome. I had to wait my friend 1 hour, but never got bored because of that. I recommend to go walk around into Gazebo. It would be extremely romantic.

We were celebrating our anniversary and the service was fantastic, and food quality was not bad. Ambience was slightly noisy with kids in the dining room.

Excellent service. Romantically dim lights but with casual friends might be rather too dim. Enjoyed the food and a wide ranging menu. Suggest to consider shared dishes if in a big group.

The setting is beautiful but the music was so loud that having a conversation was a challenge. Service was good but a bit disorganised with three different people asking about drinks within three minutes. The food was good especially the desserts which were delicious.

The environment and atmosphere were excellent. The staff were very friendly and professional. Food was inspirational, and the ginger flavor in most of the menu was just nice, not too heavy.

An excellent oasis in the gardens with a spectacular view of the greenery. Coupled with professional yet friendly service and scrumptious yet affordable fare, it is truly a destination to be noted.

Amazing atmosphere. Some of the food was excellent, some so so. The service was extremly good, just have no idea why the waiter that welcomed us asked us for our names when later he never showed up again and had apparently forgotten them when we left. The place needs some new cuttlery and glasses.

We love the food especially the special dessert called Snow White in the blackforest recommended by the staff. Overall service is excellent. Last night dinner was a relaxing n 'fresh' one because we were surrounded by mother nature.

Great ambience, good service. Food is good but portions are pretty modest. Recommended for a quiet date or nature lovers who want to dine in the midst of lush greenery. Parking is also very conveniently located nearby.

Excellent location and ambiance. Loved the outdoor seating in the garden. Good food and nice service from friendly waiters. Had 3 cheese pillows (S$14) for starter and Kampong Chicken with Asian Spices (S$28) for maincourse. Girlfriend had Halia Chilli Crab Spaghetti (S$26). Both the dishes, we would recommend highly. Halia infusion, as a drink was nice to go along with the food. The Textures of chocolate dessert (S$12) was ok, but not as great as the other dishes.

Good ambience. Food is well done especially the beef, with its great "smoky taste. Lamb was nicely grilled and well-flavoured though price of $55 leans to the high side. Chilli crab spaghetti is competent and tasty but am not completely bowled over. Perhaps expectation of this dish has been set too high when staff said this is a "must try" dish. Service is good accompanied by great smiles. One young staff spilled our very expensive wine as she tried to pour out the last glass from the decanter but she apologised profusely and explained that this is the first time she is serving wine - it is alright, they need to be given chances to gain the experience they need. So, nett - an enjoyable dinner though prices is a bit steep.
