Really bad experience from this Bar owner or workers, we bought bottle of drinks from bilabila mart which at the same building of REXKL, and when we walk down the stair looking for food, there come this bangla or indian stopped us from entering, we really just looking for food, not even sit down, really horrible attitude, chasing away customers, wont come again, and the bad review here is all real, the landlord of REXKL should really look into it.

This Wine Bar is a surprise find in middle of Chinatown in KL. Operated by some expats and serve mainly Wine and Hard liquor. NO Beer or Food.

Just a simple bar with no real decor... Not the high end bar BUT prices is definitely on the high side.

Music is Okaynamd wine is reasonable good but not great. Can visit once just for the experience but there are better bars along Changkat Bukit Bintang with much reasonable prices and vibes. Spend wisely.

The bar stands out with its bright neon lights. It has a cool vibe with interesting sounding craft cocktails. Prices are pretty steep and comparable with other much fancier bars down the road. We went bar hopping in the area the entire afternoon and compared our experiences, including the prices. Also, what I noticed was the difference in service quality from customer to customer. The lady in front of me got smiles from the bartender and even a top-up of beer when the froth settled down. Yes, the bartender actually waited for the froth to settle before topping up the 2 pints. I ordered a pint of beer and a craft cocktail. My pint had froth too, which settled by the time he came back with the cocktail, but no top-up for me.

Place where you can get glass of perfect, chilled tuak from the tap. Fruity and delicious.
And all three guys who works there were very nice, chatty and polite. Cheers 🥂
