    The vibes here are amazing! It’s a great place to wind down, grab a few drinks, and relax with your friends. Their food here is pretty good too! Had the Mac and cheese and it was just nice, not too creamy and rich, and tastes just right! Their service was incredible, we got our food pretty fast, and since we celebrated a birthday here, they provided us with the decorations and helped with the surprise. All in all the team of staff here is super friendly. Oh! They also have two pool tables, a foosball table, and two dart boards for you to play with friends and family while you dine here! Some places may charge for you to use them, but it’s FoC here! Would definitely return to chill and hang out with friends here!

    The food are amazing and affordable! All were served right on time. The staff are very friendly and accomodating.The nachos and soft shell tacos are loaded! We love how crunchy the onion rings are. I also had fish and chips and I loved it. We will definitely come back!

    Draft Beer was fresh! Staff was professional, quick, and friendly! Great ambience and live music! Fun place to have a couple pints or more! Nice T-shirt for 60 RM! Thanks Walter for the patience and the hospitality! Even though you didn’t have Western 3XL Hot pink tshirts 😁 Merry Christmas & God bless!

    Some hits and misses in the food. The loaded tater tots were fantastic and not to be missed. Fish and chips portion was a bit small, and slightly too salty. Fish was very fresh though. Mac and cheese with grilled chicken was very creamy, not as cheesy as expected, but chicken was juicy and tender. Flavour of the Mac was a bit bland and very quickly surfeiting. Service was decent on a weekday evening. Patrons did not much care to follow sop so on a crowded night it would be an issue. Most of those not following sop were white foreigners though so it's predictable.

    I genuinely love this place. Had a great time here my last day in Kuala Lumpur. Delicious and ample food, terrific cocktails, awesome live music and incredibly friendly staff wearing "be nice or leave" t-shirts :D Will definitely miss this bar and its ambience.

    Delicious food and vibrate ambient as they had Live band. Had a lovely dinner here. Food was delicious. Had the pulled pork burger and sirloin steak. Both were equally delicious. Generous portion of fries given too! Would be back to try more dishes. Price is reasonable too. Thank god they dont charge tourist price here. Drinks here is good 👍

    Excellent experience with best pool table in perhaps all of KL, and there are two tables. Good dart board area as well. Best of all no hourly charges for any of the games, in this very spacious and airy bar. Fries and nachos were good too. Satay delicious. Beer promotion such as the Brooklyn IPA we had was cheap at RM 15. Very good customer service by the team too.

    Ambience great. But service is extremely slow. Waited one hour plus nothing yet. Food was so-so. Starters and sides were a let down. Portion extremely small. Creme brulee and panna cotta is fine, not the best thing ever. Mac and cheese is fine. Roast chicken lacking of taste, black pepper sauce too watery. The lunch promotion is totally not worth it. Only look nice on paper. Never come here again. Pity the front staffs that have to deal with a big group of frustrated customers. This place not made to cater for lunch customers. Truly a disappointing and sad dining experience. Wont come here again unless they improved tremendously.

    We had a wonderful experience here. The food was tasty and portion was generous. Service was top notch especially from Miss Jenny who catered to our needs very patiently. Great ambience and will definitely come back again for another date night.

    We went last week, and we had dinner and some beers. I ordered the cheese steak sandwich, and it was amazing!!! I could hardly finish it.... It tasted fantastic, but it was SO BIG.... My boyfriend had to help LOL.... There was a live band that even played one song we asked for!!! We are coming back for sure!!!

  • 5/5 idayunusz 1 year ago on Google
    Found this place in instagram. Not regret it 1 bit to try this place with my friends. We love the vibe, cool, chill and have lot of activities to do here other than to have dinner. We enjoy spend time here playing pools, dart and after tiring ourselves, we decide to continue hang out here without need to go to other bar. The staff is friendly. Food awesome, my burger so juicy, tender and just a nice portion for me. the choice of music playing here also nice and not too loud. Still can talk with my friends without need to shout to each other. Overall, totally recommend to try this place.

  • 4/5 KEEP R. 8 months ago on Google • 110 reviews
    I would've gave it a 5* if it showed the game I requested and was assured would be shown on my reservation BUT I must say the owner/manager tried his absolute best to find a way of getting it on a screen and ultimately I couldn't have asked for more. The food was excellent value and well presented, and my wife and I shared a jug of Mango Mojito, which was very good indeed. If I had one piece of advice for the management here, it would be to better manage the pool table etiquette from guests as the table hogging was very poor form but that doesn't factor into my review rating. All in all, it was a great experience, and we'd definitely come back.

    It was pretty good and nice, live music at Wednesday night, food really tasty, awesome wings and second best quesadilla my girlfriend had. Also the mojito influenced my rating if i'm being honest. Would recommend going here, sadly i'm going to Kuala no more, there's chlorin in the water everywhere and to many spices in all the meals. Vivat Vietnam.

    Absolutely loved the atmosphere here! Our waitress was super nice and serviced us well. We came here just for quick dinner but would have been a pleasure to stay longer. I ordered triple cheese burger and wasn't disappointed. Quite the opposite actually. The crusty cheese, soft bun, and the taste of meat with finely balanced flavours of pickles and mayo was like a symphony in mouth and bite after bite I wanted to have more! Will definetely come back with better time.

    We went there for supper and drinks. The bistro wasn't crowded. There was also a live band singing that night. The beer was cold and crisp, just the way it should be. The food were delightful. We had such a great time there.

    Super overpriced and tasteless food. The cocktail was just loaded with ice cubes. The only food 10/10 was the butter mashed potatoes 🥔. Service is ok. Can get pretty hot and it's overcrowded as well.

  • 3/5 sherri a. 3 months ago on Google • 100 reviews New
    Visited for New Year's Eve; service was lacking, especially with a delayed Mojito jug and food that arrived an hour late. Maia, our waitress ignored us and walked off despite me trying to get her attention, she was doing random things like dancing and walking around aimlessly, luckily Eric stepped in and ensured our orders were fulfilled and made things happen. Despite service issues from maia, kudos to Eric and the band was fantastic and worth checking out. they even had fireworks across the road which was fun. Hoping for better service on future visits. Giving 3 star instead one one coz of good music and band .

    The price is considered as reasonable at this location. Environment and staffs are great as well. The only things to be improved is the food, the taste is normal, nothing really surprising especially the tower 5 Sandwich. It is abit unfortunate that the rostered chicken was sold out at this lunch hour. Otherwise, I believe the experience would be nicer.

    Loved the ambience and the waiters was really helpful. If you are going in a large group, make sure to make a reservation first. Loved the yummy food and theres many drinks available such as alcohol or even non alcohol like milkshakes, sodas or mocktails. Theres even mouthwatering desserts. You can also sit by the balcony for a busy centre city view and the breezy wind. Will surely come again and recommend 👍 Ps: i ordered nasi lemak, chicken parmigiana, chicken stroganoff, milkshakes (strawberry cheesecake, salted caramel and oreo)

    My cousin recommended this place, and although I was quite hesitant, he was totally right!!! The food has good quality and the ambience is amazing. The music is good and people are fantastic. We even made friends with a couple playing pool!!! Prices are reasonable, and no hustlers, like we found in other places. Will definitely recommend!!!

    The place is filled with fun activities to go along w a group of friends such as snooker, darts, etc. Ordered the triple cheeseburger, Jalepeno peppers, lime barramundi, red wine 🌶 Jalepeno very little of jalapeño in it and kinda not popping at all. 🍔 Triple cheeseburger was so so. Like the pan fried burn cheese 🐠 Lime barramundi was a little hard

  • 2/5 Kieron C. 2 years ago on Google
    The ambience is great, except when we were there apparently their air-conditioning had an issue so it was very humid inside. The price range is affordable considering it’s in the heart of KL and the food and drink were good. The main issue was the manager (?) (wearing a collared uniform compared to the rest who wore tshirts), was extremely rude, seemed to not be interested in anyone who was a local, spoke sarcastically and acted like we didn’t exist most of the night. He also didn’t give us time to go through the menu, giving us the excuse that his menus are ‘fragile’. Why don’t you laminate your menus or use a menu sleeve to avoid any damage to your menus? The other staff were a little more accommodating, but the manager needs serious work if Dark Horse wants to maintain regular customers. Love the pool table, darts, live band etc, but service crew needs serious training if they want people to come back. Would love to come back since the place is really nice but after being treated like we weren’t supposed to be there, we will def think twice before going back.

    Nice food and beer. Price is not much high. Staffs are friendly. I love to visit here again. 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

  • 5/5 Samantha L. 2 years ago on Google
    Fabulous place to dine in with SOP in place, spacious place with airy alfresco. Generous portion of food, great variety of quality drinks. And guess what? If u can finish their Mount Kinabalu 10 tiers cheddar cheese burger within 30mins, it's for FREE! Fun!

  • 1/5 Swani Claire Perl A. 2 years ago on Google
    Staffs are very rude... the waitress can come and scold my friends and i for ordering more free margaritas when its clearly free the whole night. The attitudes of the staff is unbearable. The glasses of margaritas my friends and i got are also very dirty and there are lipstick marks which clearly wasnt us cos we werent wearing anything. Would come back for the atmosphere but with the way the staff handles customer services is disappointing We werent even freeloading we ordered food so we expect good service...clearly not!

  • 4/5 Clarence C. 10 months ago on Google
    Overall pretty decent place. Music can be a little loud but then again it is meant to be a bistro restaurant place. Pasta was good, recommended. Services were alright, not amazed. However environment and ambiance is pretty beautiful. Would visit again.

  • 3/5 Vanessa 9 months ago on Google
    I had high hopes after seeing the picture of their Cobb salad online, unfortunately the pictures do not represent what you get. I found no blue cheese and only 5 or 6 tiny pieces of avocado. My husband had the fish and chips he said it was ok. The service, oh my. They got our order wrong initially which they fixed but my salad was now served 15 minutes before my husbands fish and chips arrived. And since they did not return to our table before the error was fixed I had to wait that long to get utensils which left my salad a bit on the warm side. When we got out bill they included they item we did not order, when pointed out to our waiter he seemed irritated. The restaurant was not busy yet the staff seemed to be running around like chickens with their heads cut off. All in all it was meh and I could not recommend going here. It has potential but as it is now, no.

  • 4/5 Geng Qian C. 9 months ago on Google
    Lunch deal was great! With only RM 39++ you get an appetiser, a main with side, and a dessert. There are roughly 4-5 options for each category I got the mushroom quesadilla as appetiser, it was quite delicious. For main I went for quarter roast chicken with grilled vegetable. Everything was great except I think sauce a bit too salty for me. Ended the meal with panna cotta and I think thats the highlight of the meal lol.

  • 4/5 Jacinth L. 1 year ago on Google
    My first time here. Just found out about this place on Facebook recently & here I am today (23/10) on this long Deepavali weekend. First, it is a sports bar/grill. It is a nice size place with adequate sitting. There's big screen TVs for sports buffs. It would be great for any sports ENTHUSIASTS & SUPPORTERS to gather & have a GREAT TIME during any major sports events. I can imagine the cheering & the clapping & the camaderie going on during such events. 😁😁😁👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻 The food portions are plenty for sharing. They are not small portions at all. So, come HUNGRY & stuff your face...! 😋😋😋😋😋 There's also dart boards & pool for those who wants to have a go. There's a nice outdoor sitting area/verandah for those who wants to enjoy the view outside. I like this place. Great service from Jenny who took good care of us. And TQ to the busy bartender at the bar who so nicely pointed me in the right direction to the "Ladies." 😂😂😂 Right now, I'm stuff'd. But I will come again...! ENJOY...!

  • 4/5 Krissy A. 1 year ago on Google
    Let's begin with the ambience - great to chill Food - no difference between taco and quesadilla Location - its okay, hard where to stop especially if you are using public transport Price - not bad, it can be rate as okay Staff - Jennie the local indian girl is fun, she is amazing. However the other local indian guy need to know what service means is. He needs to focus and know what he is doing. Overall its good to try 😊

  • 4/5 Shamala D. 1 year ago on Google
    The food we ordered was all the lunch set, which seems affordable as being located in the center of the city. Food choice was wide range to choose. The serving din take long as the restaurant was not so crowded with people. People were friendly, polite and nice. Overall it was a good atmosphere to chill and relax. Would love to go again to try out their pool table and darts in the games corner section.

    My experience was excellent! First time visiting and I will definitely be back! I had booked this for my wife birthday and we all had a wonderful time, the food was lovely but most importantly our table staff who I believe was called Ms.Jenny was so friendly, attentive and efficient. The service was speedy too. Will be returning!
