★ ★ ★ ★ ★ The place looks ordinary from the outside but once you go through the door you’ll be surprised of what you’ll find inside, the garden theme really hit the spot with your typical day to day table seating, but then you’ll also have separate/private spaces for groups of up to 12 ppl where you can enjoy the serenity and the meal in peace, theres a lot of option on that as well, there a hut, a small chalet and theres a prayer room for muslims. The meal itself is worth the wait if you came in 50mins after it opens, during the weekends and public holidays that means a long queue , i mean theres a queue before they even open. I’ve tried their masak lemak cili api, asam pedas jenahak (the asam pedas for this is the most savory, its very thick too), daging tetel, kerabu pucuk paku, and so far we have yet to come across a dish that we could ignore, although despite the hype, there is some room for improvements that they might want to address to improve their service, for one, the waiting time for the meals are no joke, if you came with a hungry bunch of kids, this will be a great deal of challenge for you to calm them down as they usually tend to serve all your dishes at the same time which takes time (possibly because their understaffed as well) budak spm x hbs skolah lagi, so make sure you have some snack ready for the kids, and that your orders are “complete”, additional order will take time so make sure you got it right the first time around

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ My first time here, recommended by a friend. Heard that it's packed during weekend and yes it's true. The place opens at 11:30am but all seats were full when I arrived at 11:45am. Had to write my name and phone number on the waiting list and the waiter called me in around 12:30pm. That was when they stop accepting customers and closed for the first session (11:30-2pm). I ordered straight away and received the food around 30 minutes later if I'm not mistaken.
Ordered the Masak Lemak Cili Api Daging Salai, Sambal Sotong Petai, Rendang Ayam and their Kangkung Belacan. All I can say they're all very good and nicely seasoned!! Especially the masak lemak- just the right amount of lemak and spiciness. Definitely worth the wait! The portion is quite small each dish was served in a piring(?) - the one slightly bigger than the one for kuah roti canai. But it was enough for me & my other friend - we even came back feeling full. Btw, I was actually disappointed at first because the rice was a lil bit undercooked BUT surprisingly it was okay after I poured in the hot gravy.
Regarding the place itself, it very nice and calming. They have enough bench for those who need to wait. Easy parking as they provide their own parking space, you don't need to park by the roadside. You can find the menu on their FB page.

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ We went to this place yesterday excited to try out the dishes raved by michelin star chefs. The ambience of the restaurant was rustic and nice, very cooling despite the intense heat outside. The food wait was quite long despite being early there to beat the lunch rush. We ordered daging salai masak lemak, asam pedas tetel, chicken chop, beef rendang, prawn sambal and shrimp paste kangkung. Hmmm...tastewise only the rendang met my expectation. The prawn sambal arrived late - only after we have finished our food and ready to pay. The asam pedas tetel, the chilies were not cooked properly and my husband had stomachache afterwards. Since i don't want to waste food I asked one of the waitress (an Indonesian lady) to tapau but she told me she can only give plastic bags and for me to do it myself. While waiting for her to get the plastic bags, another waiter a nice gentleman offered to pack it for me instead, since he wants to clear the table. He took away the plates and i was happily waiting for the tapau, when the waitress brought me the plastic bags and was angry when i told her that her colleague had offered to tapau for me. She stomped her feet and looked visibly upset while shouting "Puan ini tadi minta plastik udah di bawa kemudian tak.mahu pula, apa ni menyusahkan" ...wow so rude! I am appalled to say the least. Wow so much for a nice tranquil ambience. I suggest to Aunty Aini, you may want to re-train your rude waitress in the proper ways to talk to customer since we came all the way to your restaurant and yet treated like that.

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Great food and lovely ambience. Staff was efficient and nice but maybe an extra hand would have been even better service. Price a bit on the high end but it’s ok when sharing or in a big group.

The cook, the taste, the environment, the decoration, everything is superb.
Negeri Sembilan style, they present you the original. Not a typical famous Salai House that will adjust the recipe to make everyone can eat.
You can come for dinner or lunch. Booking is on weekdays but no booking allows during weekends.
Ample and proper parking space.
You pay for the experience and your childhood's memory!

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ 2 signature dishes are daging salai masak lomak and sambal petai udang. A must try 5/5. Friendly service. Must go early to avoid crowd on lunch time. Very expensive not for the faint heart but its worth every penny spent!! Beautiful ambiance to eat. Traditional kampung setup.

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Really nice place to visit. The whole venue is so tranquil with gardens and greenery everywhere.
Bathrooms are nice and kept clean when I was there
Food was good especially the beef rendang but be aware portion sizes are quite small so if you are planning on sharing dishes make sure to get a bit more of the dishes you really like.
Waiting time is very very long though so be prepared to wait and know that there is a period of the day they do not serve food. So plan your visit carefully
