The person that gave us the iPad should have asked ' if we wanted spice or no spice. instead they gave us everything spicy :( even though it was good but they should prepare..

Good was terrible. Service was terrible. They got our order wrong. And my friend who had a peanut allergy kept asking the staff if certain dishes had peanut - they had no idea if it did or not.

Tasty food but kinda meh.. Ordered some bbq skewers, fried rice, fried pork, tofu and rice cakes, and the arrival time of the dishes were quiet weird. Skewers and pork came out first, followed by the rice cakes, then rice the rest of the food came out 15-20 mins after… service could be better, hardly any staff came to where our table was located as it was toward the back of the restaurant, so made it hard to ask for assistance (there is no call button on tables either). Overall a really cool spot but I wouldn’t be bending over backwards to come back again.

Taste was fairly good, staff was also nice! I can see they might be in need of more hands but still everyone was trying hard to satisfy all customers. $60 pp was high though if it goes down a little bit, I would visit there more often!

Interesting energetic atmosphere and decor with colourful bright lights. An unique dining experience. A must try. Food is fragrantly spicy and tasty for people who love lots of chilli and mala.

Very pricey - meal between 2 of us was approximately $130. Atmosphere was amazing (bar/club decorations and vibe) and service was really good. Food was great too - but a little more overpriced than it should be.

The ambience is cozy, not an ordinary hot pot place. It induces with rnb musics throughout the dining and with warm light makes you enjoy the meal experience. The seating arrangement is unique and spacious too. Staffs are very attentive. Overall, we will be back again! Thank you! :)

Lack of service staff, everything was very slow. Took over 45mins for the all order to arrive - another 15mins for the soup to be brought to our table and we need to request twice before the staff member add soup base to the signature beef tallow mould. We have to request numerous times for our table to be attended i.e. add water to the soup, drinks order etc. Not a pleasant experience overall.
