*(POST 2019 RENOVATION) After the major 2019 renovation of the foodcourt, cleanliness has improved. However, everytime i visit, the washed cutlery still has oil and food residue on it. The food court has seen a reshuffle of existing food stalls and is made more open and welcoming. The food stall selections has also been added and they hit the jackpot on this one. Overall a great place to go if your looking for food in the vast Pavilion KL. Highly recommended: Toast Box and Korean Hot chicken.
(PRE 2019 RENOVATION) - Food Republic has since renovated, this earlier review no longer applies. Please scroll down for new review. Food is acceptable, cleanliness is not. I am a frequent customer here and cleanliness only gets worse. This place has a roach problem, you can frequently spot cockroaches. Tables are always oily even after being wiped, sometimes with food residue left on it. The floors need a revamp or atleast a thorough clean. Supervisors can be seen trying hard to improve this place so that's good. Noteworthy stalls to try include: chicken rice from Sergeant Chicken Rice, Toast Box(always a queue here) that serves kopitiam style food, and the mee jawa/panmee/anything noodles stall. You're better off queueing up for your drinks at Toast Box as the food court drinks stall is expensive and bland tasting. I have read other guides review about the quickness of Pavilion food courts cleaners, but the "Signatures" food court at KLCC always manages to stay squeaky clean with a smaller cleaning crew. All in all still worth a try and would definitely recommend to friends. Just keep in mind of the cleanliness issue. They also want customers to clear their own table and put their trays away, which I think is unacceptable as the food is not subsidised (service charges apply) in any way and not even the KLCC...

Read moreWorst seller, initially I have placed the order ( traditional pan mee soup ) when nobody was there, and then I accompanied my husband to buy his food. At the same time I saw the Chinese foreigner ordering the Dry chilli pan mee and asking questions about pan mee etc. When I returned to the same place, just within 5 minutes, I stand there and waited to collect my food, I saw the same Chinese foreigner lady already collected her food and mine one still not ready, I kept waiting. Until then 4 persons collected their food, while mine one still not ready, when I asked and said I already ordered , only they started to make mine one, how could be so ridiculous they skipped my order and not even apologised??? I paid for my food and customer service , this is the things I got, food is little potion , they give less anchovies and veggie just 2 small pieces , mushroom barely see and only 1 egg ( which I paid extra 2 MYR) , the food is God blessing and I can’t complain it. May be my order menu is not that much expensive item, it was basic menu but it doesn’t mean that you...
