This is definitely out of my usual loop, but I have really been enjoying KL, as this is only my third visit here. What could be better than to start out with a French/Italian menu, really it is simply Mediterranean and goes with the climate!  A very attractive part of the decor (and I mean that literally) is an amazing jellyfish aquarium, that I could not take my stare away from, as it changes every second. My friends had to keep reminding me to pay more attention to them. I chose a classic soupe de poisson with rouille and croutons that was quite fitting, and followed with a grilled fish topped by an olive tapenade. It is an easy-going restaurant that has a very presentable decor and efficient service. I think that even though things are not 100% perfect, they are working out the kinks, and I would expect an upward curve soon as the staff are friendly, and really good at what they do, which is to try to make people have a good evening.
