LOCALLY SOURCED. LOVINGLY SERVED.
Our ingredients come from Lahad Datu and nearby - from the market, the boats, and our own farm and garden.
Many of our guests are locals who bring friends, family or business partners to share something special.
We're not a secret. But we are a place with soul.

For those who book early (by 6:00 PM the day before) – just write “EARLY BIRD” in your reservation.

If you’ve been before, bring someone new. A little thank-you for spreading the word.

Dinner for two in our garden pagoda. Welcome drink, candlelight, and your own quiet corner.

Clinic teams, banks, schools – dine together, reconnect, laugh a little longer.

An exclusive evening for companies & NGOs. Menu selection possible for first group of the night.

Birthday? Family dinner? One guest dines free for every 10. Let’s make it special.

Small plates, high chairs, a few toys – and an early start at 6:00 PM if you like.

Sundays & Mondays = noodle nights. Book one day in advance and come hungry.
