Very welcoming and friendly service from their owner. The food is delicious at a very reasonable price. Serving lunch traditional malay food such as Ikan Patin Masak tempoyak, Ikan bakar, fried chicken, fried egg, nasi goreng and many more. However, the atmosphere is not so good, not suitable for those who want to stay longer and have a chill time. Overall, I'll give this place 6 out of 10.

Very affordable for very fresh Patin Gulai Tempoyak. The best and fresh ever Patin Gulai Tempoyak I've tasted in my life. Really good, no smell and perfectly cooked with soft and smooth texture. Very delicious Fry Kailan with Ikan Masin. There are many more varieties of dishes available as well. There were three different varieties of sambal available. The Red was spicy, green was with garlic and the black shrimp sambal. All very tasty. Very big place that can fit many tables. Also a small aircon room that can fit three large tables. eWallet payment accepted here. Not much parking available even though only one table of customer in the restaurant. Can park opposite the main road and walk across. No customers on a weekday noon as it was the Ramadhan fasting month.
