Budget-conscious diners after authentic Malay comfort food in a calm setting

Google Business Profile is the source for the business data shown here, last checked 2026-10-14.

What do customers say?

Most customers rave about flavourful, well-priced Malay food: chicken rice at RM7.50, rojak, northern laksa, and Thai mango chicken get repeated praise. The space stays calm and popular. One recent dinner went badly wrong: staff took only one order for two people, served the wrong chicken cut, missed sides, and the owner defended the error by citing the staff member's poor school record rather than fixing the mistake. That review stands out sharply against the rest.

The contradiction raises questions. Most dishes land solidly, portions satisfy, and prices stay fair despite inflation. But order accuracy and staff focus seem the weak point when busy.

X Park Sunway City Ipoh

4.0(460)✓ Google-verified

X Park Sunway City Ipoh draws steady traffic for its courts and sports facilities, which reviewers praise as well-maintained. Staff quality is uneven: one Bangladeshi worker earns repeated praise for helpfulness, but an owner or manager has prompted complaints about rudeness, cash-only pressure, and poor treatment of staff. The parking system (expensive, prone to malfunction) and cost combine to frustrate regular customers.

Reviewers praise the staff here, naming several people for patient help and kindness. The branch has plenty of seats for groups and solo visitors. Weekends get busy, and one reviewer found the room noisy and poorly soundproofed.
