Coliseum Café in Malaysia is more than just a place to eat—it’s a living piece of history. Established in 1921, this iconic Hainanese-Western restaurant has been serving generations with its timeless charm and comforting dishes. Stepping inside feels like taking a trip back in time, with its old-world décor, warm lighting, and nostalgic atmosphere that tells stories of the past. Known for classics like sizzling steaks, hearty oxtail soup, and crispy chicken chops, Coliseum blends tradition with taste, making it a beloved spot for both locals and visitors who want a meal served with a side of heritage. In this blog post, we’ll explore Coliseum menu, pricing, current promotions, best-selling items, outlet locations, operating hours, and share our honest review.
I recently revisited Coliseum Café, now operating from its modern outposts in Plaza 33, Mid Valley, and IOI City Mall, in a bid to recapture the charm of the original Jalan TAR location I grew up hearing about. Walking into these plush branches, I still felt a twinge of nostalgia from its storied past—rich wooden panelling, hinged swing doors, black-and-white photographs, and vintage memorabilia subtly evoke its pre-war roots without feeling like a museum. The menu reads like a greatest-hits collection of Hainanese-Western classics: sizzling tenderloin steak served on piping hot plates, oxtail soup that’s deep and hearty, baked crabmeat that’s richly spiced, and chicken chop drenched in tangy tomato gravy. Each dish felt like a gentle nod to a simpler era, reimagined for today.
That said, while the atmosphere remains comforting and the food reliably familiar, some of its old magic feels slightly muted. A few friends have pointed out that the Colonel’s steak doesn’t sizzle with the same intensity, and one Redditor bluntly put it: “I know people don’t visit places like this for the food… but it was THAT ordinary.” Still, for many—including myself—the visit is more than just a meal. It’s an experience anchored in collective memory, with tales of Captain Ho Seng Fong greeting generations, and diners recalling the place as the best steak in town. Even as tastes evolve, Coliseum remains enduringly sentimental—a timeless bridge between nostalgia and modernity.
