Customer Reviews

"This is a restaurant in a good location which offers a wide variety of food. It's very popular with the locals who warmly recommended it during a visit. Although well located, access and parking are a challenge. The parking attendants were helpful though. The food itself is okay although my choice was not available the day I visited."

"It was my daughter's birthday and she has been craving Amala for a long time. I took her there to have a taste of Amala different from the home made one. We had a great meal and she is looking forward to another time when we could visit again."
