WADO Dining - 183 Jln Pelikat

A hidden gem, like fine dining but affordable price. Can observe the chef cooking.can see he put his heart into cooking.

Food is SO good and very value for money. 1. Soup - Both the lobster bisque and mushroom soup are tasty, and they are generous with the ingredients. You can taste the mushroom bits and lobster meat with every sip. - It’s a tough fight between both. 2. Starter - My 2nd time having the crab cakes. Never disappoint with their crispy exterior and soft creamy interior. The tuna with avocado is slightly lighter on flavor, with the avocado containing hints of Mediterranean spices. - Prefer the crab cakes for the flavor and texture 3. Mains - Salmon was also light on the palette and my partner enjoyed the beef! 4. Dessert - Personally preferred the tiramisu (very flavorful cream) to the lemon tart (tart crust was too hard and curd was not creamy - personal preference!) Kudos to the lone staff who did an excellent job juggling everything from the cooking to seating customers. He constantly interacted with every table and also helped surprise my partner for our occasion :) While some might view the “one size fits all” decoration of the dishes with edible flowers as unnecessary and resulting in the dishes looking homogenous, i personally feel that it speaks a lot about the attention to detail by this small establishment. Love the intimate set up. The only drawback is possibly a longer waiting time if the place is short handed.

Personable and homely experience with the Chef here for lunch today! Crab cakes were wonderful, the other dishes were hearty and savoury. Affordable lunch set, totally worth the price!

The place is awesome and definitely will introduce to my friends. Their 3 course meal starts from $26 which is really worth it! With fine dining food presentation and delicious food.

Chef adds flowers elements to the dishes which makes me happy haha. Small setup and one man show but friendly chef/boss! Love the complimentary appetiser, lobster bisque soup, and crab cakes :) Aglio olio itself was okay, dessert ok to pass too. Price reasonable for its ambience and food!

Service is very good tho it might be abit slower some days due to limited manpower. The place feels very welcoming and the chef/owner takes pride in / enjoys his craft. Food is not that outstanding but generally good and worth the price.

Yummy yummy food. First visit to the eatery. The Chocolate tarts are awesome! Must try! Grilled lamb as well. We like the soup too. Lovely environment. Luckily there’s not too much ppl today. The cook manage to alternate serve the 2 tables. Will visit again for sure. =)

We came here on a weeknight after seeing the positive reviews, it was completely empty when we arrived so I was a bit hesitant, but it seems my fears were unfounded! We ordered two $30 sets and one $43 set with add ons. The chef (owner?) was friendly and you can tell he is passionate and takes pride in his food (a rare quality nowadays). All the food was very fresh (also rare nowadays) and was plated beautifully. I liked the mushroom and tomato soups. Loved the chilli crab croquettes, grilled chicken thigh and cod were also good. Prawn marinara pasta was tasty, only criticism was it could be a bit more al dente! Dessert looked quite fantastical (chef used to be a pastry chef), loved the baked molten chocolate tart! Kudos to the chef, he was a one man show, taking our orders, cooking and clearing our plates. I suppose service could be a bit slow if it was more crowded, but tonight it was still acceptable as we were one of two tables there. Food: 9/10 Price: 10/10 Service: 9/10 Hope to return soon!
