Summer Breeze Cafe — Restaurant in Borneo

I wish I could rate this place higher, and it probably is for Semporna itself.

Firstly I ordered smoke salmon salad. An average to small(ish) size portion, and quite tasty. Not too mayoed which I appreciated. Not overly generous amount of salmon, but that is understandable. Maybe a few dices of avocado would be a welcome addition. In summary, good taste and good price.

After that I had something which reminds me on chicken laksa. Coated chicken was very tasty, however it is annoying that it comes with bones (I guess that's the approach in Asia?). Therefore, not a huge amount of chicken, but still excellent in terms of taste. Laksa soup was delicious. The only downside is that there are zero vegetables, unless you count not-well-cooked potato (?). More than affordable price.

Usual staff location is such that you may not be always in their line of sight. This results in minutes of "black out" :) Not necessarily that they are not attentive per se.

Music (rather sound) is terrible. Some sort of christmasy bells for 45 min I was there. Low volume, barely heard, however it got into my head and I am afraid it will haunt me over night.

I wished they could go that extra inch with food as they can easily achieve firm 5 star...

The food is good and at reasonable price but the service from the staff is very very bad. I dont know whats the purpose of the call button on the table if they are not going to care about it. I used that button to call the staffs 3 times but I was being ignored each time. It is even faster to raise your hand and call the staff.

Plus, I ordered the popsicle and initially wanted to eat it after meal, but after a while I decided to have it serve now because they took long time to serve the meal. However, it took them very long to just serve plain popsicle and even worse, the waiter didnt proceed my order in the first place.

I ended up went to the popsicle area and picked a new flavour since the flavour I wanted was not available (and they didnt inform me).

There’s more, the staff told me every flavour that they had and for one of it, she only mentioned “chocolate”, although in the menu they didnt have “chocolate”, they only had “mint chocolate”.

I’m being considerate by giving 2 stars instead of one because they gave us one food for free (didnt charge for it) due to the food being served at room...

As an American living in KL visiting semporna. I was staying at Paly Hotel right next door and saw this highly rated restaurant near by and decided to check it out. When I came here it was a very clean and nice place to eat. One would think semporna would be known for seafood but I would argue they are known for their delicious milkshakes and smoothies! Summer Breeze cafe has amazing desserts and the food is great as well. Kind of overpriced as you can get cheaper fish in other restaurants around the area but if you are classy or white then you would probably enjoy this place more as it’s more up to health standards. Overall if you want a nice lunch or dinner this is the place to go! Expect to pay between 70-100rm for 2 people, including drinks! Hope this was helpful. The staff speaks English and accepts credit cards and Apple Pay. They don’t saw they accept Apple Pay but as long as you tell them pay way or tap pay they know. If you need any more tips dm...
