Had a great meal this evening. I don’t agree with some of the negative reviews on here. The food tasted excellent, we had a good variety of starters/mains/sides. Yes there is only one waiter but to be honest he provided a better service than most over staffed restaurants. Tuesday night, it was our table of two, a family of 4 and 3 people on another table plus a single diner. Not one table was made to wait for anything it was friendly and efficient service. It’s definitely not overpriced, yes, the prices aren’t cheap but it’s a restaurant in Kenilworth not some ping and ding pub in the middle of Coventry. Had a lovely evening, relaxing and nice ambiance.

Visited here for the first time last night ( Saturday ) using a groupon voucher .5* we arrived and booked early 6pm. Parking is small ,however across the road The green Man pub has pay/display parking £3.50 for 3 hours .We were greeted by a pleasant and polite gentleman who sat us at a lovely table .Presented with the menu and wow the service and food from that point was super.The chef came to see us also .it was a 2 course groupon voucher ,but couldn’t resist and ordered a dessert to so had 3 courses ! Staters we’re cooked and presented hot so fresh to looked great for pictures .My partner also had a couple of cocktails for a great price and totally recommends the Singapore Slings !This was my first time eating Malaysian food ,and tasted so nice ,cooked to perfection! Well done and thank you for a lovely night .

Sadly, we ate here for the first and last time for our Wedding Anniversary meal. For most of the meal, we were the only diners in the tatty and dated restaurant area. The Starters were so bad, we even debated leaving. My wife's Dim Sum were tough in texture and foul to taste. We suggested that the pork may have been 'off' but this idea was rejected by the single staff member. This chap seemed to spend the whole time clattering between the hotel reception and shouting at the chef(?) in Hindi. Unfortunately for them, my wife speaks Hindi and overheard him loudly proclaiming something about 'out of date food'! So I guess our suspicions were justified. The mains were below par and I was charged ÂŁ2.50 for a very small cup of disgusting instant coffee. Kenilworth has far better to offer, even the kebab shop over the road would seem gourmet in comparison..

Went there on Groupon voucher. Having read reviews was not expecting too much but very pleasantly surprised. Nice atmosphere, friendly waiter and the food was delicious. Will try again when lockdown down over.As an update on this restaurant, booked a meal on Valentine day via Groupon but due to contact with a COVID case could not attend. Tried to contact the merchant via telephone but no one answers. Had to use a third party. Tried to rebook but voucher deemed redeemed even though all our efforts to contact them proved hopeless. Disappointed with the result.

Terribly prepared food. Ordered 3 starters, only chicken satay was edible, the other two were bad beyond words can describe. Curry puff without curry, and instead of puff I was given a slab of dough.Main course of fried noodles were nasty and inedible. Avoid at all cost.

Visited this restaurant with friends, both our husbands had served with Royal Marines in Malaya for a number of years and decided to give this place a try when we found a Groupon offer. We had a very warm welcome from a very friendly and helpful waiter.We started with Singapore Slings which were very good and tasted exactly like the ones we had in Raffles Long Bar in Singapore. We had 3 courses, 2 of us had the pork dumplings, spicy pork with yoghurt rice and blackcurrant tart with cream and were both more than happy with our choice even though this pork dish was a lot hotter than we expected. Other two had a minced beef starter which was delicious and Captain's curry for main which was less hot but nevertheless very good. Both had a pineapple dessert with rum and ice cream. We had coffees, a bottle of wine and a couple of beers and everyone set off home in good spirits after a lovely evening out with friends having been looked after in a very friendly and professional way by our waiter. Will be back to try more.

Great food, fantastic ambience, friendly attentive staff. Groupon deal would def recommend. Small car park this is a great bonus would say better for smaller vehicles when busy.

Food and service were good. Decor is a bit of a dirge.Do not enter the crammed in carpark of claustrophobic entrapment. The signs saying it's for hotel patrons only are hard to see until it's too late, then it's painful turning round to get out again!

Delicious! I ordered and it was delivered exactly on time. Best food that I have ever ordered and eaten via Just Eat. The delivery man was very polite too. Thank you so much and please give my compliments to the Chef! Only disappointment is that I didn’t order loads more of your flatbread!!!!

Food is definitely not authentic Malaysian and falls short of the exorbitant prices we were charged ( embellished by the service charge on top of everything). I have given them a star solely for their cocktails and the service, which was good. No atmosphere or music and we were distracted by a group of people who were quite loud (not their fault as there was no music but dismal silence in the background which amplified the noise).Also, the waiter's fingers touched our food on the platter - in light of all precautionary measure taken at the moment, it is very undesirable.
