Based on 61 reviews

The Hidden Grove Seafood Restaurant in Kuching garners consistent praise for its flavorful and fresh seafood offerings, with popular dishes like chilli crab and nestum prawn frequently highlighted. Customers appreciate the generous portion sizes and reasonable pricing. The restaurant’s spacious, shaded open-air setting is noted for accommodating larger groups, though the ambiance can feel warm due to limited airflow without fan assistance. Service experiences vary slightly; while some guests report fast and friendly service with efficient reservation handling, others mention occasional delays during less staffed hours. Signage and location visibility are identified as areas for improvement. Overall, The Hidden Grove is recognized as a promising seafood destination with potential for refinement in service consistency and comfort.

Food was nice, but service took a while. I guess since late afternoon, not many staff around taking orders. Portions were big, waiting time not too long too.

Located at UTC building, shaded open space, quite a number of tables and seatings for big groups. Pretty quick service with numbers of waitresses. Food were quite tasty and nice but the squid lil hard to chew. Little warm ambiance due to the open space.

Food is good. Better than Top Spot upstairs. Location not signposted properly. There should be better signage in the car park. We had Chilli crabs amongst other dishes. Fresh and flavourful. Nice to be given a table with good fan - otherwise can be rather hot and humid.

The food was okay overall. The udang galah was too salty, so I hope they can improve on that. But the nestum prawn was the best ive ever tried. Price-wise, it was reasonable and the service was very fast!

This outlet just operate in less than a week, but their service is beyond expectations. Just text or call for reservation. Less waiting time, good service. Food was excellent at good price. If you're a fan of The Reef Restaurant, this is one of their branch. Topspot 25 and The Reef both manage by the same owner, friendly and efficient service as always.

Very clean and comfortable atmosphere. This place is on the 3rd floor, Bukit Mata Parking. Food is delicious. You can book early and pre-order your food.

Another branch of 'The Reef' restaurant(few blocks away) that serve seafood. The food and the price tag is the big winning factor for this restaurant. The quality of the food and beverages are very good. The waiter and waitress are very helpful and served us well. However, honestly i think they need to add some more fans in the area considering the weather in Sarawak are quite warm and humid. Overall very good and recommended to all.

If you dont want the usual bustling crowd in Top Spot, this place comes highly recommended. Service is fast and Food is good and delicious. The only disadvantage is u cant pick the seafood yourself unlike in TopSpot where everything is displayed and for you to pick and choose. Would be even more lovely if its airconditioned
