" An exquisite dining adventure that I can’t recommend enough! From the moment we stepped inside, the hospitality was on point. The food was artfully presented, and the flavors were outstanding! If you’re a seafood lover, you must try the diver scallops; they were perfectly seared. The only downside was the cost, which was definitely on the high side, but for the quality, I think it's worth it. " (*Curated Review*)

" I was drawn in by the fusion of Vietnamese and French cuisine, and Kingfisher did not disappoint! From the ambiance to the flavors, everything was on point. The cocktails were innovative, and our server was knowledgeable about the menu. While a couple of dishes didn’t blow me away, the overall experience was captivating enough that I am looking forward to trying more dishes on my next visit! " (*Curated Review*)

" The melting pot of flavors at Kingfisher is worth the visit! We tried multiple dishes - some were stunningly delicious, while others were just good. The atmosphere is lovely, a perfect spot for dinner, but I did find the prices a bit steep for the portion sizes. However, it is a great place to share and explore the menu with friends! " (*Curated Review*)

" My partner and I tried Kingfisher last weekend and it was a true dining experience from start to finish. The menu was creatively put together, showcasing flavors that were both familiar and refreshingly new. We particularly enjoyed the wild mushroom congee and the crispy chicken wings. The portions were suitable for sharing, which was perfect for us. Service was warm and friendly, making us feel right at home. Overall, this place has found a special spot in our hearts! " (*Curated Review*)

" What a delightful surprise! Tucked away in Golden Hill, this restaurant serves up some truly imaginative dishes. Each bite from the appetizer to dessert was bursting with flavor, and the presentation was as beautiful as the taste. The servers were knowledgeable, guiding us through the menu like pros. They even offered suggestions based on our preferences. Highly recommend the Wagyu flank; it was melt-in-your-mouth perfection! A must-visit restaurant for anyone in the area! " (*Curated Review*)

" Absolutely captivated by the dining experience at Kingfisher! From the moment we arrived, the ambiance was warm and inviting, perfect for a romantic evening. Each dish we ordered was meticulously prepared. The crispy duck was the highlight, and the wine selection complemented our meals beautifully. Service was attentive without being overbearing. I can’t wait to return and try more dishes! " (*Curated Review*)

" Nice place, great ambience! The cocktails were impressive, with inventive flavors that made for a fun experience. However, I felt like the food was slightly overpriced for what we received. Though well-presented, it didn't have the depth of flavor that I had anticipated. I appreciated the fresh ingredients but would recommend looking at the menu ahead of time to manage expectations. " (*Curated Review*)
