Cilantro Restaurant & Wine Bar

We’ve been here a number of times over the years, and Cilantro remains a place where consistency is a key feature - in terms of service, quality and execution. Their menus, whether degustation or seasonal or from the signature menu, always upholds the same commitment to finesse and excellency. While not overwhelmingly creative, it’s a definite benchmark of fine dining that brings you back here time and again.

Came to celebrate a friend's birthday. Tried the 3 course meals:1) Baguette and Brioche with truffle cream cheese: The pastry with the cream cheese spread taste good. We even requested a second serving on the pastry.2) Unagi and Foie Gras with red wine sauce: The unagi is adequately seasoned and very soft. However, i think the unagi no tare is too strong to overpower the mild taste of the red wine sauce. The portion of the Foie Gras is generous for the appetiser but maybe slightly oily. The beet roots puree at the side is a plus.3) Wagyu beef tenderloin with bone marrow: This main dish is disappointment. The good thing is the beef is tender and cooked to perfection. However, the beef is severely under seasoned and the sauce taste too mild. The only food that taste good for the main dish is the mash potatoes at the side.4) Dessert - Mystere: I can only taste sweet. Nothing else.Overall, the course meal started strong but ended on a disappointing note.Nevertheless, I would like to commend the waiter for very welcoming and good customer service.

Service is excellence. Appreciated the passion and friendliness.Atmosphere is good even though located at 3 star hotel. I know some hidden gems do the same.Food is average, can be better. Ingredients is there but the taste is not favorable or memorable kind. No element of surprise. But it's depends on your own taste.

Chef Kimura is a chef that has mastery over his ingredients , cooking all items to perfection which tastes natural and original. We had one of the best meal with the ingredients in the dishes coming fore with all the nuances and colors with being adulterated or overcome with overhandling.Looking forward to coming back more often.

I have dined here several times but never had their Set Lunch Menu, rm150nett - 3 Course Set.I particularly liked the flexibility in this menu, i choose 2 from Entrees + 1 Main.I enjoyed my Pasta Mains - Wild Caught Prawns & the Onion Soup. The escargots, i felt wasn’t flavourful enough.My friends enjoyed their selection too.We didn’t select the Room but it was the same room when one of my friend’s celebrated her 50th Birthday. And, today we were same group of friends in the same room - what a coincident.
