IWAN SHIFUDO IKAN BAKAQ

It was great. Not suitable for loner. Come in a group is recommended.

Seafood restaurant

overpriced food...Set B for 4 people, but the shellout just fill with spicy 'retak seribu', crab 2-3 pc and few slice of squid..but, siakap bakar is very delicious...

Went for a dinner with a group of 10 people. We arrived there at 7pm. The place is conveniently located right next to the highway ramp. You cant miss it, although I'd appreciate a signage pointing towards the entrance, which is nearby the traffic light. The parking was ample. The place itself is huge, with tables arranged strategically under an open structure with roof. It does not feel cramped at all. Upon arriving, you will be ushered to the ordering table. Basically you will have the option of ordering by set, or ala-carte. Not many varieties available, even their signature menu - the shellout - only comes in one variant for 4-6pax. We opted for ala carte shellout and fish, alongside tomyam and veggies. For the shellout, well to be honest, we've tasted better at certain local shellout restaurant nearby. The portion itself is not really that big, with only one crab (i dont think 4-6pax is expected to be sharing one crab!) The shellout is prepared with gravy/sambal hitam, a bit spicy, but what to do, that's the only option available. Tomyam is pretty "kick" and tasted great. We tried tomyam seafood and the portion is great. However it wasnt served with small bowls and spoons. Maybe its a small thing, but these kind of small things that get noticed in otherwise a delicious tomyam. For the fish menu, we opted for a live seabass (siakap). The price is pretty competitive for a live, fresh seafood. We ordered for siakap bakar and siakap steam. The siakap bakar itself tasted great, marinated/seasoned with coconut milk and turmeric. The complementing air asam was also worth a mention on its own. The siakap steam, however, was pretty basic and bland. Maybe because i dont think it goes well with the shellout gravy. Kailan as veggies was pretty standard. In conclusion, the place itself is a nice place to visit esp if you're in a group of people, eg bawa family/friends to have an enjoyable dinner. Extremely good accessibility, amenities are complete with ample washsinks, a clean and dedicated toilet for both males and females, as well as a pretty decent surau. The food itself, however, is just decent. Would I come again? Maybe, if there is any other specialties/menus, other than shellout. Would I recommend others to come? Yeah, sure, a nice pit stop for refueling before embarking a long journey on the road.

5 of us. Total cost rm140plus.. therefore each person paid rm28plus. The portion size and the taste was not so great. Value for money? For us it was totally not. Left the place still hungry. Dining experience was compromised due to bad weather. The design of the surrounding eating place (due to heavy rain) left many people uncomfortable to dine. Drinks was to be self served (not sure if it is refillable no explaination given) and collected far away quite a distance from the table assigned and the non stop rain water pouring on the canopy could end up in your jugs while travelling from the drink counter to your table. One jug is only enough for one round of drink for each of us to drink in our glass. Even the staffs were bit stressed due to unfavourable weather. One big plus positive point: the staffs came and brought umbrellas to us when we arrived at the parking.

Quick Serv...well done

Place and ambience 10/10 Steam kappa 8/10 Fried sotong 6/10 Shellout - taste 9/10 but the shellout seafood is not fresh (all the prawns, crabs and kappa are not fresh) This is a newly opened restaurant by the highway . Big open air space with lots of seating places. Very windy. They do have grilled fish and other dishes in their menu. The price is on the high side.

They only serve shell out.. very limited choice of food. The shell out also not hot when they served. I guess they cook early already. That why the waiting for food is not too long as I experience in other place. However the ambiance is nice quite large area. The staff hospitality also good. Keep it up..
