I was holding my glass of taro milkshake as I moved to a different table when the glass slipped from my hand and broke. Shocked and embarrassed, I apologized to the staff and quickly approached the counter at the front of the restaurant. I explained to one of the cashiers that I would pay for the glass and apologized profusely. Without a hint of anger or blame in her expression or voice, she said I didn't have to pay for it. After thanking her and apologizing some more, I sat at the table I intended to move to. A few minutes later, to my complete surprise, a staff member approached my table with a full glass of taro milkshake. I nearly cried from the kindness I was shown by their staff. Not only did they not make me pay for the glass I broke but they even replaced my drink. Hats off to the wonderful staff at Solaria Central Park Mall. I will never forget the kindness and outstanding customer service you have shown me. Their nasi goreng was topnotch, by the way. It was freshly cooked, the serving was very generous and the flavor was delightful. I definitely recommend this place and I will certainly come back the next time...

If you just want something more basic and easy to eat, you may try their Nasi Goreng Seafood a.k.a Seafood Fried Rice. It is sweet, savory, and fragrant. The topping is also okay— not that kind of restaurant where they give you only 1 or 2 slices of fish ball with a big portion of a rice. So, overall it is acceptable...
Read moreSolaria might be a common restaurant now considering its price and availability. But legends said different kitchen has different taste and i am agree with that.
I have an experience where their duck meat smells very bad, but this was never the case with solaria CP.
I got a little playful, so i ordered a nasi goreng hijau bebek (green fried rice with duck meat) and i really like it. This is my favourite dish for Solaria for a few years already. The smokiness of the rice and the juiciness of duck meat and skin is exquisite.
Another thing i ordered is i fu mie, which a noodle fried until it is dried and crisp, then i ask for the topping and broth served separately. In the end i could still have half a bowl of the topping and broth left, and it is...
