“ Edi is the best employee they have! All the staff is super nice and joyful but Edi goes the extra mile for you. Definitely a must visit restaurant and you probably will want to go there more than once. ”
“ Food was so nice I came back twice in one day! A lovely restaurant with great views and nice atmosphere. Staff were fantastic and Hannah and Andy really took time to get to know me and talk about my holiday so far as well as making sure everything was okay with my meal! Will be returning :)) ”
“ We came here yesterday and loved it so much that we decided to come back today! Eddie was our waiter both times, and he was incredibly kind and fun — he even made me a little flower out of a napkin! Thank you for making our visit so special. ”
“ Went on a rainy day and sat indoors. It was comfortably cooled with really cute decor! Food was excellent. We ordered the fried chicken wings to share and then a beef rendang and a tuna tataki for mains. The chicken wings were really crispy and juicy and came out piping hot! The beef rendang was very succulent and the tuna tataki was also well-done with a nice crust around the edge. I was a bit disappointed with the red velvet cake... It was a bit frozen and hard and was not very delicious. The place does not serve alcohol but is okay with you bringing your own. Would definitely recommend as one of the options for dinner. ”
“ The food was good. We ordered veg and non-veg both. Spring roll, pesto pasta, fries, chicken burger and chicked lover pizza. Vegetarian food had good taste but less options. Non-veg was good too. Andy was very hospitable and was able to service us well. Do try this in Gili T ”
