I like the environment in the restaurant with the band performance. And the food there was delicious too.

On our recent weekend break in Melaka we visited this restaurant not only once but twice! The first time we really enjoyed the atmosphere and entertainment. Also the fact that they had 'normal' toilets helped! We mistakenly ordered pizza, which was nice but not thin based like we like but we were in Malaysia and should of ordered more local... More

I highly recommend this restaurant for singles, couples and families alike. Everyone would feel right at home. I spend two nights here (April 22nd and 23rd 2013) eating, chatting, singing with the live band and just enjoying with the friendly staff and also patrons. The manager Albert and this staff run a very professional establishment. I ate very well and... More

Our family of 7 aged 8 to 75 enjoyed the helpful staff and reasonable food. The menu is huge and well priced.In fact it was so good we went twice on our two night stay in Meleka - far better than Hard Rock Cafe 50 metres down the road that was without doubt a real let down. There was a... More

We recently spent 10 days in Malacca and loved it's cultural mix, it's colourful, noisy atmosphere, crisscross OldTown Streets...and of course the food. We found ourselves going back to 18 Jonker Street several times and were never disappointed with the food and friendly, efficient service. You can sit inside in very old and comfortable surroundings, or outside in the courtyard... More

Oh I should have taken some pictures. My hubby and I lunch here yesterday. I had Pasta Linguine Alla Pollo and my hubby, Spaghetti Bolognese. My dish; the taste was good but presentation needs improvement. In my plate of pasta, there's a few very small pieces of chicken meat, one regular chunk carrot, one cauliflower and one broccoli. I mean... More

So we went to this place for dinner. Seemed good from outside. But while looking at the menu outside, the lady there kept pestering us to go inside the restaurant. That was not cool at all. Then nobody came to take orders for good 15 minutes. Whenever a waiter approached near our table and we asked him to take order,... More
