Great atmosphere. Good service. We went there on Tuesday night and it was packed. We nearly couldn’t get the table. The food was OK not very tasty as what we were told. I had Nasi Goreng fried rice and it was ok. The only thing that we like was Coconut rice.

Monsoon Poon in unfailingly good – the not taking bookings thing is a bit of a pain as the wait time can be up to an hour on busy nights but it’s usually worth it.

The only thing I would say is avoid Tuesdays – have dined twice recently on a Tuesday and it’s obvious that it’s a different (and I’m guessing inexperienced) chef(s) than on the weekend as in both cases the food wasn’t nearly as good as usual – including basic things like the rice which was gluggy and overdone.

Great restaurant to take the kids to! Very friendly and tolerant staff, with a really good childrens menu. Adults are able to eat a great meal here and know the kids are being fed decent food too! Definately worth a trip.
