This was my first time trying the Spaghetti Carbonara at Eight Miles. Based on the taste, I think the carbonara sauce might be homemade, which I really appreciate.

Read moreHas visited Eight Miles burger previously and wanted to repeat eating their chicken chop, but disappointed with my visit this round.

Will definitely not going there again due to their poor services and food...

I don't understand y people want their burgers to be soggy. Its beyond me. Oblong kambing which I ordered was salty.. dont know whether it is the banjir sauce or the seasoning. The buns are so soggy that it got stuck to the plastic container When u order banjir it means u'll get some sauce & a serving of fries. The chicken burger was so so as well. The fish n chips are made of 2 pcs of breadcrumbed fish fillet( orange coloured)I prefer dory breaded with tempura anyday.
