Visited in a relaxed Sunday Around 1:30PM. It is quite relaxed place. First thing first. When Air-conditioned place do not turn AC for some time & turn it on once the gusts are present, could not avoid fungus smell. Same happened here. They must have turned it on some few minutes ago which giving you the impression, it is less-operative joint.

However, at the entrance they go through proper covid-19 check. Ground floor must operate as a family Restaurant. Quite so. It took almost 8-9 minutes to waiter to present me menu card. Saw other customers themselves present at bartender to get their service done which is quite unpleasant. However, I have noticed 4-5 stewards are on service. They must have neglected customers. When I ordered a Beer, steward pointed out only few minutes to close the Bar & order more. I have said just enuough as 13 more mintues to 2:00 PM which is their deadline. They seems deliberately delay my bite (deviled cashewnut) to making sure my glass is empty when I recive it. Right at 13:58 I ordered another can of Carlsberg since they do not have bottles.

Couple arrived around 2:12PM and ordered Lion Can. They served it at 2:13PM. This means you can get beyond the point. You don't need...

A good place to a grab a few drinks with a couple of your friends like I did on a Friday night. Was my frist time there and I guess since it was a Friday the upper floor was basically flooded with people and all tables were taken. We spent our time downstairs and there are tables for 4,6,8 and even more than 12 if it is a company team outing. The place is lit up and don’t expect silence during a Friday night specially because people laugh, talk and spend their time and if you are looking for ambience try another weekday except Friday. The food was delicious. Hot butter cuttlefish, Mintage Special Fried Rice and a chicken dish to go with is what we ordered along with a few beers. The quantity is superb too. A large rice portion is enough for 3 very hungry people or 4 averagely hungry people. Price wise is also fine but may be a tad bit higher than other pubs but I am saying that it is worth the money at least. Overall...
