Ran by an uncle and his family who's friendly. Had their signature style tilapia (Portuguese style which is a littleee spicy). It was really good, went so well with rice and the fish was freshly caught. Basically they have 3 sizes of fish which even the biggest isn't 1kg. Based on the size they caught, that's the price they will charge you from RM32-39. I would come back for their fish dish again. There are total 13 kinds ;)))

We stopped by for lunch on the way. It's just off the main road heading to Broga from Semenyih. It's a small rustic shack inside an orchard but there is an air-conditioned section. The boss is a very friendly guy who made good recommendations for our meal. Ample parking inside the compound. The salt baked Tilapia was great on taste, soft and not dry. We are sure we shall come again.

We decided to venture out of our usual fish pond restaurant in Broga and try a new spot I recently discovered. It turned out to be a pleasant find. The restaurant is run by a super friendly husband and wife team, with their daughter leading the kitchen alongside with her staffs. The dining area wS comfortable, offering both air-conditioned and non-air-conditioned seating. The cleanliness of the place, including the toilets was impressive. Having been in operation for 21 years, this family-run establishment offers a wide variety of dishes at reasonable prices, making it ideal for families with both elderly members and young children. Our meal for two adults, one child, and a baby came to RM149.50. The standout dishes for us were the fish ball soup and the steamed chicken. The fish balls were exceptionally smooth and almost melted in your mouth. My baby couldn’t get enough of them. We also tried the petai squid (RM32 for a small portion). While the dish had a nice touch of lemongrass and kaffir lime leaves, we found the chili to impart a slight bitterness that didn’t fully appeal to our taste. Overall, it’s a clean, family-friendly restaurant with great service and a solid range of menu options worth exploring.

Underrated Chinese restaurant. Owner Uncle is so friendly and gave good recommendations. Ikan talapia caught fresh and the cooking style recommendations are good- one was with ginger/garlic/soy sauce and the other fish dish steamed with cili padi. Yummeh! Uncle is so good in explaining how his eatery is to cater to all races- no pork/ no beef allowed/ no alcohol- so everyone can enjoy a good meal of a Chinese styled meal

1st time eating here after a friend’s recommendation. We ordered 3 of their fish, 2 veggies, 1 chicken dish, and 2 of their special dish that somehow looks like siewmai but its not. The fish is a bit on the salty side though. We had “yim guk”, black beans and signature. Most of the dishes are Ok. It’s not super mindblowing good but it’s ok. Boleh lah .. simple dinner with friends and family, can lah .. Price is reasonable. The uncle attending us was very warm & friendly.
