"Had lunch here before attending meeting nearby. Not much of food selection left. Ended up ordering just white rice with sup soto ayam. They don't have the bakso for whatever reason it is. Service is okay. Better to sit outside cos too hot seating inside the restaurant. Overall, wish to have much better food selection. There's room for improvement."

"My first time having lunch here. I ordered a bowl of Chicken Soto as it is one of my favourite dish when I eat at a Malay/Indonesian restaurant. One thing that I want to comment here is their service. I have been waiting for the waitresses to come and take my order but five of the waitresses were all standing sorts of busy with two table of four or five customers seated there near the kitchen. Even how we tried to call them, they seems to ignore us. Until my daughter called the cashier to take my order. So why not one waitress standby near the counter to look around which customer hadn't got his/her food. I hope the owner of this restaurant will improvised their service and do not let the waitresses grouping together to take order. Thank you."
