Was an excellent dinner. Every dish was good. The cheese beehoon, crab, pork rib, chicken... every dish was just so good. You need to book way in advance otherwise be prepared to wait a long while for the table.

What an extremely poor experience at this âunassumingâ peranakan restaurant in the heart of Melaka. Going by the reviews on the site I thought I was in for something special; however, was sadly disappointed. We arrived at the restaurant at around 8.10p.m. - they close at 9.00 apparently. I didnât feel welcome from the start and, to add insult to injury, the âwaitressâ hovered around for us to finish our food. Another family were present at the table next to us, so I was wondering if they had the same unwelcome/unwanted feeling as me.Pai Tee came as a starter but were bland apart from a vinegar after taste.We ordered asam prawns which tasted somewhat stale and not fresh at all. This was not masked by the tamarind sauce.The devils chicken was ok; however, it was a devil to find much chicken on the bones served to us.The tidbits were prawn crackers which tasted of oil rather than prawns. All in all RM60 for a very poor experience. We were going to stay for a cendol, but were told they were closing at 8.40p.m. - the hovering waitress said she might make an exception for us. No thanks!They donât serve alcohol, which is a real shame as you are going to need a strong drink if you experienced what I did.

Walk-able distance to the Stadthuys, Christ Church, River Cruise, Clock Tower,... you are the at the most central location of Melaka in no time. Can't get any better TamilNadu food in the proximity and is worth the money.

Our visit was okay. Food and coffee were good. Nice interior too. One thing that should be done better is making sure that as a couple we get our coffees together. A 10-15 minute difference in serving meant I had finished mine before my partner's arrived. It wasn't even that it was busy. And then another 10-15 for the food. A bit out of sync. Might be best to specify this when placing order rather than assuming.

Experience dining at a Retro-styled cafe backing the Melaka river in the Heritage Zone. One could choose to dine by the river and watch the cruise boats pass by; or at the indoor fan or air conditioned area. We serve cafe food : 'All Day Breakfast Sets',

We enjoyed sitting by the Melaka river in the evening in the eclectic surrounds of the River View Cafe.To the delight of our children they serve a range of Western food, although I found there local dish selection quite limited.Prices were very reasonable and the food was very nice.

Located near Jonker. Popular with tourist & groups. Simple layout, air conditioned. Service is a hit & miss. Rather pricey.We tried their otak otak, friend chicken, spicy fried rice, kangkung belacan, cincalok omelette, prawn sambal, asam pedas fish, pie tee & chicken lobak. All were average at best. Asam pedas was rather weak, no kick to the gravy. Only highlight would be the lentil crackers as appetizers.Wouldn't recommend unless you are nearby & looking for a meal.

First time in Malaysia touring 5 locations in 2 weeks. First 3 days are in Melaka, arriving early evening and trying to find a place to get a small meal and drink.We were pointed to the Indian street near our hotel but at 9.45pm weâre finding most closing on a Saturday night!! Also no alcohol available in the restaurants, but that is the religion here so be aware.We stumbled on the Bulldog, which had also finished food service but had a band on and offers for the drinks (buy 4 get 1 free). The place has a new modern appearance inside, very open, high ceiling, long back and narrow, but very clean.Staff were friendly, the band were good and they did reasonable priced snacks (chicken wings, fries etc).A must to visit, I appreciate out of sorts from Yonker street, but a good place to eat and drink. We actually had a meal there on our third night, sharing several starters between the 6 of us, which was reasonable and good value.Definitely worth a visit.
