What is nice about this restaurant is the different options of food, the service and the atmosphere. The food is ok (anyway Perhentian for me wasn't a gastronomic spot).

Food was great and a good value. Especially the noodle dishes and fresh fruit juices are delicious! The major letdown is the service which is very slow and absent-minded. Once our order was also apparently forgotten on the pass for about 15 minutes to cool off before they served it. Another 10 minutes after we sent the food back they... More

Simple typical island restaurant with tables standing directly on the sandy beach. Very good food, long menu with reasonable prices. No wonder it was hard to find a free table in the evening for dinner..... For our order we had to wait around one hour every time, but we were not in a hurry, and we we coming back next... More

Not saying much though. We sat down, it was not busy, had to ask for menus. Server brought them to our table, tossed them backwards into the middle of the table, turned around and walked away, without making eye contact or smiling. Great first impression. Food was good, nice variety and they served beer. Filipino cook was sweet. She delivered... More

We didn't stay at this resort, but the reviews don't look good. Nonetheless, the food at the Watercolours pub is both tasty and varied. Given the challenges of operating on an island they seemed to do a great job. Prawns in creamy garlic curry sauce were great and the pizza's were prefectly fine too. Beef in szechuan sauce and chicken... More
