Tanah Aina George Town Cafe — Restaurant in George Town

Our visit to this restaurant was nothing short of a letdown. We had high hopes for a wonderful dining experience, but unfortunately, we left feeling utterly disappointed.

To begin with, the gado-gado we ordered turned out to be nothing more than a basic garden salad. It lacked the authentic flavors and ingredients that make this Indonesian dish so special.

The pancake we ordered was a pale and unappetizing sight. It seemed as though it had been hastily cooked in a microwave, resulting in a texture that was far from enjoyable..

The Fish and Chips dish was a disappointment as well. The fish was overshadowed by an excessive amount of batter, leaving it tasteless and unremarkable. The only saving grace was the fries, which were the only enjoyable part of the dish.

The only dishes that somewhat redeemed this restaurant were the Nasi Briyani and Nasi Lemak. The Nasi Briyani was flavorful and well-prepared, leaving no complaints. However, the Nasi Lemak could benefit from a reduction in the amount of ginger used, as it overpowered the other flavors.

It is clear that this restaurant did not do enough research on the Penang market before entering it. There are already established restaurants in Penang that offer similar concepts with incredible service. Unfortunately, this restaurant failed to meet the standards set by its competitors.

The service we received was lackluster as well. The servers seemed disinterested and unengaged, giving the impression that they did not value their customers. This lack of attentiveness only added to our overall disappointment.

In conclusion, our experience at this restaurant was far from satisfactory. We left feeling let down by the lackluster food, unimpressive service, and overall disappointment. It is advisable for the restaurant to reevaluate its offerings and make improvements if it wishes to compete in the Penang market...

Must go enjoy the experience, and be truly spoilt!

Such elegant decor, amazingly beautiful inside, with so many differently decorated dining areas. Just love it!

Truly a foodie destination with varied international cuisine menu catering for all from breakfast till supper time. Nothing like it in Penang! Well done!

So All, do go try this special brand, the varied Tanah Aina experience. You’ll be amazed and so glad you went.

Home Sweet Home in Adelaide, Australia now, but thank you Sabrina (our old school friend) and your staff so very much from all of us girls for generously hosting us at your beautiful new Tanah Aina Cafe in Green Hall on Sat 22/7/23.

So grateful you gave us your beautiful VIP Room that night, thoroughly enjoyed every minute of it.

Sabrina is a very special kind generous person indeed, hosting and taking photos with us even though very busy, letting us try her special cookies, and didn’t want to accept payment for our drinks. Thank you once again from the bottom of our hearts.

You are an exemplary role model for all, especially our younger generation to aspire to be. A truly amazing classy lady, a living legend! Keep up all the wonderful work you’re doing. May you continue to inspire others.

May you always have love, happiness and success in everything you do, including your hospitality and environmental/conservation endeavours. All...

I honestly didn't know there is another Tanah Aina cafe in Penang as I usually visit the one in Shah Alam.

I repeat 4 times in this week alone haha

First one I had Lontong with ice green tea matcha. Finished with Pisang goreng with ice cream for dessert.

2nd was Laksa Johor with hot green tea matcha (team raya lunch)

3rd with pulut kuning (as I missed this during raya feast) and teh tarik (yeah the Malaysian favorite). And I have been eyeing on the bubur pulut hitam so I had it for dessert ❤️

4th I just can't forget the taste of Lontong so here I'm back here today for Lontong with teh tarik 😊

Love all just how I remembered spending hi tea here with families back in Shah Alam. Thank you Tanah Aina for opening branch in Penang and serving great food. Hopefully soon durian season will have durian too in...
