Cultivate

I was at Cultivate Cafe yesterday to celebrate a friend's birthday. We were attended by Vesa who is very friendly and courteous. We ordered the 3 dishes recommended by him- Soulful (Hot Sandwiches), Vegan Earth Bowl and Avocado Iceberg Wedges (Organic Salads). The food was very nice and I would recommend to anyone visiting Cultivate Cafe. In addition to the yummy food, we were also impressed by the restaurant setting. It is so unique. The ambience is really nice. We will also like to thank Vesa for taking awesome pictures for us. Thanks to him, we have lovely photos for memory. Yesterday was my friend's actual birthday. She was really happy that I brought her to Cultivate Cafe. Thanks to Vesa also for giving her a complimentary birthday cake. I would like to add that all staff are friendly, warm and courteous.

Celebrated a friend’s birthday at this awesome vegan restaurant and had a great experience. The soup of the day and the pumpkin tarts were delicious. Our toddler enjoyed the risotto the most. Very attentive service and we love the ambiance. We were given a complimentary chocolate cake for the occasion; we didn’t expect a gluten-free cake to be this tasty. We didn’t manage to get the name of the service attendant, a very friendly gentleman who assured our kid the tomatoes are good for him and are delicious. He was incredibly accommodating even when we overstayed our welcome, as we had no idea the restaurant was already closed for the day. Will definitely come back.

The food takes really long to arrive and tastes odd. The risotto was way too cheesy and the leek was too strong. Asparagus was overcooked and too bitter. The pumpkin tart and dessert (hazelnut cake and chia seed jam) were the only nice thing. The pumpkin tart base was too hard but the pumpkin filling was yummy. The Moroccan inspired mixed potato tagine was sweet and sour and too heavy for us to finish. The cavi-art was just biscuits with pomegranate jelly pearls and other overly-salty mixes which fell flat. Definitely don’t order that one. Overall, I think the atmosphere is great but the food really fell flat. I would suggest not ordering the risotto, cavi-art and tagine. Oh yes, we knew of this place as it was added as an Amex Love Dining partner. However, they didn’t honour the Love Dining privileges. When two mains are ordered, the 50% should be applied on the entire menu (including appetisers and desserts), except drinks. But they only applied it on the mains. We asked about it and the server had told us that that was the rule. We went back to check the T&Cs and that’s not supposed to be the case. This is Amex Love Dining, not Entertainer. Anyway, we definitely won’t be back.

My hubby was able to surprise mi with this interesting gluten.free vegetarian restaurant hidden within a boutique hotel near Maxwell. The ambience gave off a colonial grandeur vibe with floral posh lounge chairs and tinsel lamps. We ordered their vegan pad.thai and pasta, along with a dessert and coffee. The mains were "jelak" after awhile, but we both enjoyed the pasta which had olives in it to help cleanse the palate abit. A malay service guy even came forward to ask for feedbacks on the food we ordered, which i appreciated.! The Walnut and Date Loaf Cake had icing on it which was way too sweet for our tastebuds. Service to us was half & half, (sorry i didnt get their names) the malay guy and the ladies on shift gave really good service, great smiles and presented a gentle approach..however the indians servicemen were not quite up to standard (especially the one wearing a coat)..we were pointed to our table instead of being brought to, and he refilled my water with just a splash. I can help myself with the water if i didnt need to pay for service. I hope this doesnt happen to any other diners in the near future, especially from one who does a service front.

Had a wonderful experience at Cultivate Café! The ambience was sophisticated yet cosy — we were surrounded by books, which added such a warm and thoughtful touch to the space. Decor reminded me of Raffles Hotel. A huge shoutout to the amazing staff: Halim, Putri, and Irene were incredibly hospitable and attentive throughout our visit. They even surprised us with a complimentary slice of cake when they found out we were celebrating a birthday — such a lovely gesture that made the day extra special. Highly recommend for anyone looking for a charming spot with heartwarming service and great vibes!

I highly recommend you avoid this place. The service is dismal. Not sure why it score 4.4 on here is a mystery to me. There was only 2-3 other tables yet it takes forever to get anyone take our order, and even longer to arrive (easier to get your own juice at their fridge). The food - not good/not bad. The tagine was too sweet, it was nearly inedible. Everything is laced with sauce otherwise would have been inedible. The food looks good though- good for the gram, not quite good for your belly nor your pocket. They need a re-training with their staff. A pity because they all seem lovely but nothing we asked was coming in a decent pace, and often wrong. Don’t recommend, I will never come back

We had an absolutely incredible experience at Cultivate! The ambiance was warm and inviting, and the staff were exceptionally friendly and attentive. The food? Outstanding! Every dish was bursting with flavor, beautifully presented, and clearly made with love and high-quality ingredients. A special thank you to the team for making our visit so memorable. 11 May 2025 We wholeheartedly recommend this place to everyone. It's a must-visit café that proves plant-based food can be both indulgent and deeply satisfying!

Truly an absolute incredible experience at Cultivate! The ambiance was warm and inviting, we thought we have landed in a Harry Potter land! And the staff were so friendly and attentive If you want us to mention the food, well well well, it’s Top Notch! — every food was bursting with flavor, beautifully presented, and clearly made with love and great quality ingredients. What truly made our visit unforgettable was the surprise complimentary cake to my friend. The staff truly made the day special for my friend’s actual birthday! Especially thank you to Omar, Raihan & Izat for giving us such a wonderful experience. Truly recommend this place to anyone. It’s a must-visit cafe that proves plant-based food can be indulgent and satisfying!
