    Ate fried carrot cake. Was tasteful and to my liking. Love the young coconut flesh and drink. The place to be for satay, chicken wings, otak-otak.

    If you love the variety and the informal atmosphere of a hawker centre, this is the place for you. Old school food, done without health and dietary considerations. The waffling aroma of a combination of food stalls pervade the air upon arrival. It's an authentic Malaysian experience 😋. Come earlier in the evenings. Otherwise, parking can be complicated.

    If you do not feel uncomfortable to dine by the roadside, here is a perfect spot to taste local dishes with a wide price range. Some are pricey while some are affordable. I gave four star because I paid through the nose for a small plate of fish ball noodles with four pieces Yong Tau Foo at RM 11.50 (no photo is included here). The stall is situated beside a Wantan noodles stall and behind a fried spring roll stall. Ambarella juice is strongly recommended. The stall is opposite to a Rojak and also pork satay stall. It is freshly prepared without any ice added. Authentic fruit juice! They also sell fruit ice. Satay sold by an old man is very delicious. There are three Satay stalls here. Worth to try the senior vendor’s food because he was seemed to control well his charcoal fire.

    Overall the food experience here is very good. Mixed Fruits with Ice cream on top is worth it. Sweet and not too ripe. Chicken Wings are good too, better than one in KL I tried before. Not overly cooked/ roasted/ grilled Satay comes with a peanut sauce ( right consistency of the sauce) and the meat is tender. Lobak, also good not too hot so easily to eat

    Place is quite hot, ordered fried noodles but food didn't arrive after I have finished the rest of the food. Uncle selling fresh juice and otak-otak fast service. Sotong kankung quite a lot of sotong..fried oysters egg very big portion even I ordered small. Food overall is not bad, just the place is too hot.

    I am a kampung boy born in Melaka which heaven for hawker food. Seriously, this Is not those high class place. But the food, taste and environment bring back my childhood memories. This for sure good place for families. I highly recommended Meng Hian Oyster👍👍. 2ndly the Nasi Lemak also taste awesome👍👍. Price is reasonable cheap. 😊

    Went there at night for dinner. Oyster omelette is old school, taste ok, portion is big and generous amount of small oysters like those used in taiwanese oyster meesua. Rojak from the inside stall is sub-standard. Prawn paste not fragrant, inconsistent youtiao (some toasted, some not).

    All stalls try their best to grab customers! I had mix fruits ice, lobak, pork satay, and chicken wings. All taste good Mix fruits ice, all fruits is sweet and ripe just nice. With ice cream on top. It bested my experience in ipoh mix fruits ice. Watermelon, honeydew, grape, mango, dragon fruit, peanut and ice cream… for RM7 Lobak is freshly refry it to crisp, just there isn't the lobak brown sauce like Penang and KL. But that portion for RM10.40 not bad! The pork satay is juicy, succulent and tender. The peanut sauce too feel the peanut punch in ur mouth. RM 1.1 per stick Chicken wings is good, but not that surprised compare to other, and 2 pairs of wing RM 12… Cleanliness is no go here… basically i have swamp of flies annoying my feet and ard my food!

    Food court that is located literally by the banks of the Batu Pahat River. Selection of favourites here like otak-otak, grilled chicken wings, oyster omelette, and satay. Many stalls offer the same things. Free seating.

    Back then like 10 years ago this is one of the best place to makan but after 10 years this place seriously very bad 🤦🏽‍♂️ All the foods seriously bad and the price is unacceptable too 🤦🏽‍♂️ It would be my last to visit this riverside hawker after so many years 🤦🏽‍♂️

  • 4/5 Cyrus W. 2 years ago on Google
    A variety of local food available here with reasonable price. Facility is a bit dilapidated but the food culture is rich. Famous food includes oyster omelette, satay, chicken wings, and otak otak.

  • 5/5 David N. 2 years ago on Google
    My wife like the mee suah very much, light flavoured comfort food. I had the best rojak buah cum sotong kangkung I ever eaten so far, the sotong was super tender and the rojak sauce very well balance,not over powering at all. Otak otak are very fresh and moist. Fantastic hawker food.

  • 3/5 Niro T. 4 years ago on Google
    A wide variety of foods available in this hawker center. Worth coming for once but the food weren’t that impressive. You have to try your luck. Some are good but some are just normal.

  • 2/5 Alex M. 2 years ago on Google
    Simple fried Mee Siam but expensive. Bad environment and no proper SOP.

  • 4/5 Stanley T. 5 years ago on Google

  • 4/5 Ee Syuen T. 6 years ago on Google
    A place you'll want to come if variety is your thing. Satay, otak-otak, oyster omelette, stir fry, seafood!

  • 3/5 Lie Wei C. 4 years ago on Google
    Food variety. Can be smoky and filled with pungent smell from the satay stall and chu char when they fried the spicy stuff

  • 5/5 ah j. 3 years ago on Google

  • 4/5 SC C. 2 years ago on Google
    Came at late afternoon and seems that not many food stalls are open at this time of the day. Hope to pay another visit during evening for dinner/supper.

  • 5/5 Teo Kay L. 2 years ago on Google
    We call this place Sea Side Glutton Square. I grow up eating here. It is located beside the Batu Pahat River. When I am 4 years old I always stopped at Kwang Ah to eat satay. Last time we used Dollars. I remember throwing satay sticks in the drain. And getting scolded. Now is the son running the business. Satay is a meat in a stick and barbecue. Hai Kee Hawker Centre is famous for the satay. And the oyster fried with egg. Also rojak betis. Rojak Betis is fruit salad with prawns paste. And the cockles fried kuehteow is delicious. Here's Hailam chicken rice is also famous. BBQ chicken wings is a must try. Kuehteow Kung-fu and Hockchew noodles is good. Hockean mee is nice. Otak - otak is the best. Otak is fish and prawn wrapped up with cuconut leaves and roasted. Here's sell beer and soft drinks and fruit juice. You can take away. Everything on your table must be paid on the spot. All the hawkers accepts call for orders. All sales will be in cash money. Parking is beside the road. Open daily from 10 in the morning to very late night. Friday parking is free. Toilets are available and free. Most of the customers are not local. The place is a tourist attractions. See you there! 🧧Thanks. ❤️
