We decided to have dinner here tonight celebrating my mom’s birthday. Initially sceptical, the orders turned out to be tasty dishes. Six dishes ordered in all. The waiting time was a bit long but the portion was good! The atmosphere, we were the only patrons here tonight and overall the price was worth the meal

Food was wonderful, tasted authentic, and good portioning. Sweet sour chicken is our favourite. Even though there weren't many people most of the time, service does tend to be a bit slow. Since we've been there a few times, we ordered ahead of time (deposit paid) so that they prep the food ahead of time and start cooking once we arrive. (You can call them up and ask to see the menu) Menu choices were a bit limited but sufficient. They are running on skeletal crew, so highly recommend to order ahead of time if you don't want long wait. For a hotel restaurant, the price is reasonable. This is no pork & no lard restaurant. They don't even have alcohol in the menu. Multi-level free parking.

Nice food nice environment nice staff.. will come again later! Should try all the menu there! Super delicious good job hotel bayview !

Organized a family function here recently. The food was good, price was extremely reasonable, the service was awesome. The celebration was well planned out, all with the help of the F&B Team at Bayview Hotel especially Cik Shikin & En Azizi. Kudos to the team and thank you for your service!
