Coffeeshop is non air conditioned and the warm weather did not help. It’s Mother’s Day today so diners tonight were especially more and there were abit of chaotic and slow dish delivery to the tables. We had made reservation knowing that it is Mother’s Day but when we arrived, the server seemed to not have allocated a table for us. So service wise was really not superb and I would highly suggest not to visit them on festive or celebration seasons unless you love their food or don’t mind the long waiting time.

Food wise, other than the prawn, everything else was so-so. Once again, not recommended to eat at this place unless there's no crowd or you have the patience for the long...
Read moreDined at YiJia yesterday and was really pleasantly surprised! Although it’s a coffee shop, the ingredients are not compromised at all. The curry fish head is unique and full of flavour, the pork is fresh, and the salted egg chicken is my child’s favourite. The service staff are friendly 👍 I’ve eaten at many restaurants, and this was a very worthwhile experience for the price. Although it doesn’t have the atmosphere of a full-scale restaurant, the food quality is...
