Kerabu Mojito (RM25)
We love they are prepared and the stunning interpretation of the classic mojito, this local twist incorporates fragrant herbs, zesty lime, mint, and the punchy soul of kerabu. It’s savoury, refreshing, and delightfully bold — a tropical symphony tailored for our warm Malaysian nights.
Salt & Zest (RM55)

Asides from their drinks, the food at The Riff District carries the same philosophy — familiar comfort reimagined through an inventive, multicultural lens. Ingredients are premium, plating is precise, but the essence always circles back to warmth and memory.
Handmade Pita with Laksa Butter
We love how the combination is done. The soft,fluffy pita is served with laksa-infused whipped butter — a tribute to Malaysia’s iconic dish, but reinterpreted in a playful, elegant format. It’s rich, aromatic, and surprisingly light — the perfect conversation starter.
Pan-Seared Siakap (RM55)
As for the seafood, we enjoyed Locally sourced seabass is seared to perfection, then elevated with bayam, hamai, and chili tinctures. The entire dish is brought to life with a silky parsley lemon beurre blanc — a French classic that adds brightness and finesse without overpowering the delicate fish.
Argentinian Ribeye (120g) (RM85)
We love how this ribeye is perfectly pan-fried. The robust, comforting main where the juicy Argentinian ribeye rests atop crisp potato rosti and sautéed kailan, finished with a zesty kaffir lime chimichurri. It’s rustic yet refined — a celebration of boldness tempered by balance.
We love the warm service, thoughtfully tuned interiors, and dynamic menu make it an ideal space for everything from intimate gatherings to serene solo lunches.
