Exceptional coffee and food. Menu seems even bigger than what you view on the street displayed menu.

I just wanna say what a great brunch experience for me. No reason to not give 5 stars. Great spaghetti and honey garlic wings. Burger is ok and the fries are super delicious.

Nice spot on the main street in Labuan Bajo. Very friendly service (it's Indonesia of course!) Good prices, tasty food. Hard to find any faults! Thanks for a lovely meal

The price is a bit below average in some of the restaurant in Bajo but the taste turns out good. This can become one of the option you can try if you have limited budget. Delicious food also with a great acces to the main road. Really worth it to try Indonesian food when visiting!

We loved this place so much had to come back again! The food is fantastic and priced a lot lower than other nearby places for chicken and rice dishes. The staff are so so friendly. The restaurant is also lovely inside and they have aircon!

Among all restaurant/cafe I ate during the holiday, this is the best one. Very flavourful spices over the meat. Ps, try not to overcook the meat.
