"This restaurant was a pleasant find. Visited a few weeks back with a friend and we had a pleasant dinner. There are a lot of options on the menu if you are looking for variety, but what stood out to us what the service and heart of the staff. There is a “clean and calm energy” to the place. A good venue to catch a breather and enjoy a healthy, traditional drink."

"The thunder tea rice was fragrant and delicious, plus the space was incredibly clean and comfortable to spend time in. I was surprised to learn that everything is vegan, including the drinks and cakes! Came back a second time for the lychee cake. It was exactly how I remember fruit cakes from my childhood"

"The food was delicious and served fairly quickly. We had friendly service and explanation of the different aspects of Nyonya cuisine. I’m normally not a big fan of vegetarian food because I tend to find it bland and not satisfying, but everything here was tasty and filling. The Nyonya Fried Rice here is in my top three locations for tastiest fried rice in SE Asia. Thank you to Melissa for all the great information about the restaurant and Nyonya cuisine. We’ll definitely be back!"
