What recent reviews say

Staff performance splits reviewers: Naim, Zulaikha, Ashikin, and Anis earn praise for patience and attentiveness, but others report phone-scrolling and dismissiveness. Donuts land rave reviews when fresh and fluffy, yet multiple visitors describe dry, disappointing batches in recent months.

The location suits a shopping break or quiet rest. Walk-in customers report missing perks (no plastic bags) that delivery orders receive. One reviewer experienced possible food quality issues. When staff click and donuts stay true to standard, the experience shines.

Tealive The Curve, Mutiara Damansara

2.8(116)✓ Google-verifiedPublishes prices

Tealive's Mutiara Damansara outlet falls short across most visits. Staff routinely ignore customers at the counter, rush through orders, or deny responsibility for mistakes. Menu items vanish without warning, straws run out mid-service, and drinks taste inconsistent or overly sweet. Early closures frustrate people arriving before the published 10pm time. A handful of reviewers praise the signature milk tea taste and recall one night of polished service, but these bright spots are overwhelmed by complaints about poor attitudes, product unavailability, and operational confusion. The outlet feels understaffed and undertrained.

Thosai Cafe

4.4(641)✓ Google-verified

Thosai Cafe earns steady loyalty for creative thosai dishes and genuinely good masala tea, with staff like Jeva earning specific praise for friendliness. Kitchen delays are the real problem: reviewers report 30 to 45 minute waits even with few customers, and some leave without eating rather than wait. Orders also come wrong (extra onions and cabbage when not ordered). One reviewer rejected serving on brown paper outright due to hygiene and oil seepage concerns. The food itself gets consistent love when it arrives: palak ghee thosai, samosas, and specialty items impress repeat customers. The space is quiet and clean. But the service unpredictability is a friction point that keeps some regulars away and limits the experience to those with patience.
