"As an Italian, picky eater... this place blew my mind away. Enough for two servings for one person almost and I thought I'd save some for leftover but ended up eating it like 15 minutes later. ELITE Pasta."
"The potato was so good. It was very flavorful! The chicken was seasoned very well and tender. I wasn’t too excited about the sauce. Next time I will get another potato. One thing about the potato was there wasn’t enough shrimp."

"I love ordering from Peninsula whenever a craving hits! They package everything with care, seems consistent from the last time I ordered, and have added more items to their menu! I am very excited to order again in the near future (but my budget got tighter for food!). I wish their curry was a little thicker since I am used to a slightly thicker consistency when having 001 Roti Canai印度面包。 but the flavors are all there and they make sure you get a big piece of potato and chicken compared to some other Malaysian places I have tried (aka you get your money's worth!). I love 071 Hainanese Chicken 海南鸡 and they capture all the flavors just right! It is truly nostalgic and Its one of my favorite dishes. I am excited to try their New!!! Signature Platter Pudding 布丁世家 but it came melted so I added it back to the freezer while I enjoy my meal. I wish to recommend to them to either package separately or at the bottom so it does not melt as quickly in transit. Overall definitely worth a visit for those who enjoy Malaysian food as much as I do!"
"Absolutely wonderful! The veggies in the 084 Sizzling Pork 铁板猪 were super fresh! The rice is cooked perfectly. The portions are super generous. It was my first time ordering, and I'll definitely be ordering again. Thankfully, the menu is HUGE, so there will always be something new to try!"

"I just tried this place for the first time a week ago and this is my second order. just as great quality of service as when I went in person. And I must say I tried the Vanilla Mocha not knowing if I'd like it as I was a bit underwhelmed with the Ricotta Pie, which the owner suggested along with the Vanilla Mocha last time. I knew the Tiramisu would be bussin as I've had it before, but let me tell you I'm glad I got two slices each of the Tiramisu and Vanilla Mocha. still gotta say though the Tiramisu is an 1,000,000/10 situation. Most places it's not as moist as it should be, or the cake is just small. This is one of the most dense, and moist cakes, without crossing over into the "wet" category. Kudos to the baker, and final credit goes to whomever decided to soak the bottom in actual coffee as most folks don't and it makes the cake in my opinion!"
"I order from this restaurant a few times a week, because their cannolis are some of the best I've ever had. But lately, the size of the cannolis seems to be getting smaller with less filling and the shells aren't consistently crispy, yet the price remains the same. I'm starting to have trouble justifying the cost when the quantity & quality seems to be declining. I have attached a ohoto. Note, there are 10 of them in there and they fit in a tiny container. It makes me so sad to even have to write this, because I've been a huge fan of this bakery, but I think its important for them to know that loyal customers are noticing this, as well as making other customers aware.
