"Mie Goreng Belacan is tasty, cooked well Matcha Strawberry drink tastes weird with super plain matcha on top and strawberry jam at the bottom that hardly mix. Barely a taste of matcha in it. Waffle is greatly cooked, puffy and crispy. I ordered the latest Lemon Yuzu Waffle. The sliced caramelized lemon didn't served as display. For me, the taste of Yuzu Lemon ice reminded me of eating lemon cream from canned biscuits on younger age and unfortunately one of my dislikes. I'd prefer having some safe options like Oreo, Chocolate or Matcha on my next visit. Interior was very cozy in the evening with flood lights and cold AC. May get very noisy when crowded so we left earlier."

"Love the waffle. Pizza was ok. Oyakodon was overly sweet. Big no. It was more like rice with sweet soy sauce instead of japanese oyakodon."

"I can confidently say that their waffles and french toasts are definitely their forté. You MUST try them out, they're balanced in every aspects. Everything else are pretty standard or mediocre, nothing too big. However, I think their biggest problem is definitely parking. I could say it's not horrendous, but it's not good either. But there's nothing we can do about it since the location itself isn't really supportive of it."

"Pretty decent place. Food was decent overall and service was great. Ayam/mie goreng special links were pretty decent. Chicken was on the smaller side though unfortunately. Spaghetti w/ mushroom was very bland. Wasnt a fan at all. Calamari and fries were great! Waffle was a bit on the drier side. Maybe use a bit more whipped cream or ice cream? Still an okay place to hang out with friends though as they offer quite a variety of food options"
