Ordered 2 different fish dishes bcs my husband insisted to have Ikan Pari Bakar as well Food was nice and yums. Definitely recommended. 10/10 would try again"
"28.12.2025 my fifth time here. A bit early 3.45pm and first customer but they took my order anyways. 4 nasi lemak bungkus kosong, 1 big Siakap, 3 sotong (bakar kosong), 2 ketam S&S, 1 set kerang bakar and 3 drinks for RM156.I think other fish and udang a bit too high. Overall as expected. Will come again."
"Malay style grilled seafood. First joint you will encounter when driving into the ikan bakar area. A reasonable alternative to the nearby Ikan Bakar Parameswara. Price is by weight, includes cooking and willing to accommodate smaller portions."
"We are having as per attached menu and all of the menu is delicious. Please do take your family and try their food. Even after re-heat the food at home, the taste is still great."
"Recommended First you must make reservations or bookin for dine in. Pls don't walkin if come here Friday, Saturday or Sunday.there no place for walkin during weekend. Tasty, delicious Fresh Seafood So many type of cooking you can choose Price also not so expensive"
"Food was okay, but the fish was a bit burnt, service was fast, portions of the food were enough for 5 people & lastly they have spacious parking space. Extra points for the kitten"
"Really love the Kerang Sambal. Decent level of spiciness yet the cockles is sweet and chewy. Their Sotong Celup Tepung is soooo good. Juicy and succulent squid with light batter of flours, making it crunchy on the outside. Affordable price, surely will visit this restaurant again."
