Reviews for Nasi Kak Wok (Original)
Review highlights
Based on 717 reviewsReviews of Nasi Kak Wok (Original) frequently highlight its authentic and consistent flavors, praised for maintaining the same taste for over two decades at an affordable price. Customers appreciate the nostalgic culinary experience and the restaurant’s straightforward access. However, common feedback points to limited parking and seating, along with inefficient queue management that can lead to delays. The food, especially the gulai and fried chicken, often sells out quickly, resulting in longer wait times. While the service and environment receive positive remarks, the slow service during busy hours is a recurring concern. Overall, the brand is well-regarded for its originality and quality despite operational challenges.
Easy access just take the next exit after KBMC which located beside roadside and the taste still the same like 20 yrs before also the price is cheap.Am will repeat tocome back for sure.
The service, environment and food of this restaurant are impeccable. Highly recommended
Still same like last year. Price only rm6. Please come here early morning around 7.30am. a taste will make ur memories come again.
Always full of people regardless of races. The best version of Nasi Kak Wok, simply because of its originality. Parking space is quite limited. Seating also limited. The queuing process is not organized, people whom are late tend to skip the queue. Slow to get your food because the gulai or fried chicken are finished quicker than the supply from their kitchen. Causing long queues. The staff is not that friendly especially the chubby one serving the food at the counter. I'm not sure if she's having PMS every day.
The food is superb. I love this one compare to the near Zainab's school. But the service is super slow. The chicken tok longer time to cook while the order is piling up.
Delicious nasi kak wok, not sure if it's original but it was good. It only cost RM5 per pack.
