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!
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.
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.
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
Rebecca HumMarch 6, 2015I love plain pratas and their pratas and nice and crisp, not too small nor too "doughy". Try the chicken curry!
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.
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.
Can order “each a Cup” bubble tea to go with ur Prata. They are collaborating.
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!
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. ;)
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.
Henry EssentialOctober 29, 2012Plan your trip well.always crowded.I prefer going at abt 5pm , 11am , and 5 am slots. Nasi lemak sambal sedap
Fadiah MFebruary 17, 2013Ate the Fish curry head set meal & got it at a quite cheap price. And the service is fast too.
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.
Back to basic, plain Prata is still the best n flush with traditional ginger tea👍😊
Thosai is good! You can also order Horlick dinosaur even though it is not menu- 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 .
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)
For good service, come at 5am when they are not busy. That's when they are really attentive and at your beck call.- Tya AlawiahJanuary 9, 2011Seafood Horfun's my all time fave! Of course the soft, yummy prata & fish curry is a must have!
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!
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'- Amirul AmriJune 6, 2011Love the biryani.. Get a seat at thohirah service fast. If af cafeela, be prepared to wait.
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 serving
After so many tips here and else where. They have speed up. Good job to all the serving crews.
Prata hard like stone when hot n more harder if cold hada to dip in grave for few minits than can eat n i think Ppl that eat here tak ada tekak bedal aja n kasi batu pun bedal hehe- 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!!
- waypointDecember 31, 2010New Year's Eve '10 - Malay guy in dark blue apron & 'smartass' tee(day shift serving staff 12:15pm); 10 of him and Thasevi down the road can close down! Kudos!
If you sit outside the service might be slow, inside the service is good.
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.
Order anything else except Prata.. Kosong prata $1, Egg prata $2!
Michelle TanJanuary 4, 2011Was here @ 8am, 4 Jan. Order was taken n food n drinks served within 5 min. Prata was hot n crispy. Doesn't mind to come again!
FreakoleyOctober 6, 2010Nice & crispy prata.. Yummy curry. Oh.. Without air-con n with air-con prices slight different.
Nana HeidiJune 10, 2012The boss shld read the comments posted here! Service sucks!! Waiters really have attitude problem...but 1 of the waiter(chinese man) is good. Thumbs up to dat guy!
The mutton briyani is irresistible !!! And I agree with the rest...The service is screwed most of the time !!!
Jiaqi ChuaJune 15, 2013Said to be famous for their prata.. It's a myth. Prata is very tough and hard, curry to go with it is really average, wouldn't come back again.
Kirynn MMay 25, 2012I love da food here. Dunt mind waiting. Da service not so bad. Can joke even. Better den Bukit timah al- azhar.
Cass StarshineNovember 14, 2010Best prata bomb in town!!! I'd rather this place over Thomson prata house anyday!!
When u eat murtabak ask for fish curry its betta than other types of curry
mee Hoon kuah is a little bit of mee Hoon with lots of kuah n cabbage.. don't bother.. try sumting else..
DeE DQMarch 31, 2012We ordered nasi Lemak .. It was serve cold ... Ask for more sambal, the person just replied that's enough for you in Malay .... We were all stunned !!!! Horrendous attitudes shown frm service staff
syaiful AmirilFebruary 11, 2011Definitely a great place to have late night supper with awesome friends and families! (:
Very bad service. Trying to order and the stuff at counter day he dun take order, go else where. OMG. Food took 40 mins to arrive and worse, wrong order and waited another 20mins!
I JohariOctober 3, 2010Fried baby squids!! Get the large if it's more than 2 of you cos it won't be enough!!- RudyAugust 18, 2011Agree with the comments here about their bad service. Even heard their service staff telling a customer to eat at the other (more famous) prata shop if he cannot wait. What's up with that.
Joelle LinMarch 31, 2015Prata is ok but the Ikan bilis fried rice taste awful... With lots of pepper
