If the guys have a good day it's really good. Otherwise it can be a Pita and take a long time to get something ordered and finally served. On Fridays get the Dum Briyani for lunch. Simply awesome!Upvote3Downvote
Ivan ChoongJanuary 4, 2015Used to be awesome in early 2000s. Took me by surprise that my Mee goreng and Maggi goreng tasted like grime and misery. My last visit in 2013 wasn't great either. 2nd Jan 2015 will be my last visit.

Pam SiaApril 14, 2013I ordered teh-o ice limau. They ran out of lime but the nice waiter guy (in glasses) suggested lime juice. I asked if possible to have teh-o ice + lime juice mixed, n he obliged! And it tasted great!Upvote1Downvote
The $8 tuna mutarbak is actually $9 as the menu isn't updated (according to the staff there). Maggie goreng is quite good as it isn't too wet and it has the indian ngoh hiang and potato inside too.Upvote1Downvote
Rebecca HumMarch 6, 2015I love plain pratas and their pratas and nice and crisp, not too small nor too "doughy". Try the chicken curry!UpvoteDownvote
Gabriel SeahJuly 1, 2018The prata is actually worse after than during Ramadan. Maybe they were more ethical during Ramadan and didn't serve reheated prata. Still better than the original at Thasevi

Parking is alway a problem everywhere over the weekends. But be patient.. Have that "wait for 5 minutes" attitude and u will get ur lot in no time. ;)UpvoteDownvote
Can order “each a Cup” bubble tea to go with ur Prata. They are collaborating.UpvoteDownvote
Back to basic, plain Prata is still the best n flush with traditional ginger tea👍😊

Christine TanJuly 18, 2013Bee hoon goreng Ikan bilis (white) is very very nice. But there is a lot of MSG. Can park at the public carpark nearby.UpvoteDownvote
Henry EssentialOctober 29, 2012Plan your trip well.always crowded.I prefer going at abt 5pm , 11am , and 5 am slots. Nasi lemak sambal sedapUpvoteDownvote
Piccy LokeJuly 23, 2016located next to the carpark. thats all it is good for. better off walking further down to the more famous one on the other side of the road.UpvoteDownvote
Fadiah MFebruary 17, 2013Ate the Fish curry head set meal & got it at a quite cheap price. And the service is fast too.UpvoteDownvote
Ramphal RaajJuly 14, 2015Botak malay fella service is f***! (Who works in the morning). Ask the chinese worker instead for anything, they are more helpful.UpvoteDownvote
waypointDecember 31, 2010new year's eve '10 - 12:15pm day shift serving staff; malay guy in dark blue apron & 'smartass' tee. if this place had 10 of him, thasevi down the road can close down! kudos!UpvoteDownvote- Ramphal RaajJuly 14, 2015If u have to take a shit urgently.. This is a perfect toilet to visit (because looking at it will jacked your shit up and it will wait patiently till u find a better place to shit). It's horrendous!!UpvoteDownvote

Tryna AstraApril 30, 2013Our menu for the day was: - fried rice chicken (horrible), mee goreng (lodsa oil), milo dinosaur (not bad), Bandung (tasteless) and satay (was their only dish that was gd)UpvoteDownvote
Order anything else except Prata.. Kosong prata $1, Egg prata $2!UpvoteDownvote- Mo IshakOctober 19, 2010As a s'porean like this place coz it's very Malaysian, the food and the service . I am understanding of the service.used to it... And patience is a virtue. And there's always mcdonald's .UpvoteDownvote
For good service, come at 5am when they are not busy. That's when they are really attentive and at your beck call.UpvoteDownvote
Victor VongApril 10, 2014This receipt is for 2 egg, 1 plain, 1 mutton curry, 1 tea. Standard of food is on par with or worse than kopitiam but more than twice the price. Learn from my mistake, don't patronise this scam shop.

Benedict TangAugust 7, 2014Extremely bad food, bare minimum service and extremely expensive and bad value for money. Longan drink was just 5 longans from a syrup can with cold water added. Tea was very dilute. Just don't come.UpvoteDownvote
Andi MahatOctober 26, 2011well the roti prata seems to be getting smaller after the years but the number of patrons is decreasing... as the saying ' good food brings the customer'UpvoteDownvote- Dannia AzSeptember 30, 2013The service is very bad and many are complaining and I'm still back again and again. Just hope another restaurant open nearby so can give some competition. Arrogant owner.Upvote2Downvote
jess kJanuary 12, 2014the service guy i met was speeedy in ordering and the food came really quick, despite being full house. however pratas were not fresh. felt like it was prepared ahead and just warmed up before servingUpvoteDownvote
Try their ROTI BOMB. Not for those who counts their calories intake though.UpvoteDownvote

Cass StarshineNovember 14, 2010Best prata bomb in town!!! I'd rather this place over Thomson prata house anyday!!UpvoteDownvote- Kiru HallucinationOctober 21, 2011Typical singaporeans n their almighty come-to-me-and-serve-my-bidding attitude to service. Look at all these uncultured jokers scolding the natural expected service. Spoilt brats, whole bunch. KthxbyeUpvoteDownvote
- MOTLEY GUNSSeptember 23, 2011Cashier & Management getting a little cocky with attitude. No saying please or thanks. Like business is getting too good for them that they can afford to be Arrogant.UpvoteDownvote
