I called last night to inquire if I needed to make a reservation (for two) and they said yes so I did. We arrived and the place was empty - maybe two tables in a very large dining room (red flag #1). The place is beautifully decorated but we noticed right away that the room was warm and stuffy and needed to have more air conditioning (red flag #2). We specifically wanted to eat here because we read a great review in the newspaper (My Paper - 27/5/2013). We had also visited their website and looked at their menus and prices. After being seated we ordered the dinner set talked about both in the newspaper and advertised on their website. It is advertised as a complete set with enough food for two priced at $48. We both love Mediterranean cuisine. We were told that the set was not available. No apology. No explanation. We walked out and will not go back. We walked down the street to Whampoa Food Street Keng Fish Head Steamboat and had a great experience with great food, very friendly service and plenty of AC! While we won't be returning to 21 on Rajah, if any other OpenRicers want to try it I suggest you call ahead and see if they have everything on the menu.…查看更多 I called last night to inquire if I needed to make a reservation (for two) and they said yes so I did.

We arrived at the restaurant and saw the place was pretty much filled up with crowd of young adults and families (only one table was open in the small dining room). Fortunately we were ushered into a second - much bigger - dining room on the second floor. That was a surprise. This dining room was probably 3/4 full as well. The air conditioning was pumping, the tables were clean and the service was very friendly. The waitress gave us wonderful recommendations and even told us what not to order when something else was similar and better. She also told us not to order too much since she recommended that we order more later after we see what we get on the first round. It was nice to have a server who wasn't just trying to see how much she could sell to us.Note that we did not order steamboat even though almost everyone there came for their steamboat. We were not in the mood and did not have a lot of time to spare after wasting so much time at another restaurant. Our food was great including a wonderful ribs with fried cuttlefish dish. They have coffee ribs on the menu which we want to go back for soon. It was a bit pricey for what they call "street food" but well worth it. The crowd seemed to agree. Of course there were lots of big tables filled with groups of friends and family enjoying the steamboat menu. After looking at some other reviews I see that many times they have a line of people waiting to get a table. Since we were there on a week night after 7:30pm they were busy but we didn't have to wait to be seated.
