May 13th 2013, my boyfriend and I invited two of our friends for dinner in this quaint place and being Malaysians, we weren't expecting much (being accustomed to good food).
We ordered sup ekor, paku pakis goreng, beef rendang (must try), fried egg, Ayam Masak Merah (could have been less sweet) and mango kerabu. Absolutely divine!

cozy environment, good food, traditional dancers show was a bonus, very clean toilet!, we went there for a small school reunion of 40 members, and it was done successfully, hotel staff and manager were very friendly and helpful. highly recommended if you're looking 'the not so expensive but yet great food, a little privacy and affordable restaurant'.

The Dancers were very good and we enjoyed our evening, thanks to wine and high spirits. But the food was pretty terrible. Even the basics: Satay, fried rice etc, were pretty much inedible. We still had fun.

We have been to Songket Restaurant on Christmas Eve. It was a fine dinner, with delicate and tasty meals. We really enjoyed the traditional dancing too. The service was excellent, it was really great and I would definitely recommend it.
