    Sarawak is famous for it's laksa and one of the more popular laksa outlet is located here. This plc has been around for, I think about 20 years or so. The portion is satisfactory and the prawns are fairly large and fresh. This is in relation to its price of Rm6.00 per bowl. Most places don't offer that much at this price. The laksa broth is nice, though in my opinion, not among the best in town. I prefer the more spicy type. There are also some nice stalls serving curry chicken rice, kolomee, foochow fried noodles and dim sum. Overall not a bad place for a Sunday morning family breakfast outing.

    One of the famous Sarawak Laksa in town. Not my favourite but it does give a lot of prawns. 👍

    Excellent food with reasonable price. Must try the kolo mee with *zheng* soup. They started business very early.

    Have not been back here for 8 years and yet the quality and taste of Sarawak Laksa have not changed or been compromised. Very friendly service and reasonable price. Dining in is allowed but the day time heat hasn't changed as well.

    Small laksa for Rm5, the broth is fusion between West and East Malaysia as it has a hint of curry powder, I wouldn't call it authentic Sarawak laksa but it's an interesting flavour nonetheless. Personally I prefer full belacan sambal broth flavour, however don't let my review stop you from coming here to try. Popiah on the other hand selling at Rm2.60, not bad as a filler.

    Golden arch garden laksa. This place is often confused with the other golden arch laksa nearby. So watch out on which one u are ordering. There’s one golden arch laksa facing the main road (big round about), and this one is seated within the building itself. U can order from both side when u seated at the tables in the middle of both building. I tried both, prefer this than the other. The laksa is nice. Portion is good. Size different is mainly on the prawns size. So if u r not a prawn lover, just order the small size laksa (Ie. Prawn is the small type ). A must try if u are hunting for laksa.

    This is front portion of the cafe known as Golden Arch. It has a Laksa stall as well, which is equally good, with the prawns peeled and the heads still intact, which makes it easier to consume. The Dim-Sum is made by Chinese-import chef, who makes the Dim-Sum the floor above. Fresh and good.

    Always be the first dish I had after landed on hometown Cat City. The laksa stall is managed by 2nd generation now and the food quality is inconsistent 😅 however the laksa broth is still delicious. The chicken feet + you tiao/yao char kway/fritters is a perfect side dish 😋

    One of the great place to grab laksa. Early note, the noodle they used is thicker than others. Ordered also the siew pau which is ok 🙏🏻 laksa price range is rm6,7,8 Tried the curry rice on the next restaurant and its decent as well 💪🏻💪🏻

    Laksa biasa (RM4.50) + hot lemon tea (RM1.80). Laksa not so nice. Prawn not fresh. The laksa soup not taste to it par. Plus, tauke talk too much. Waiting sometimes for my order to arrive.

    This is a popular eating place and can get very crowded. Most will come here to eat one thing only - the Sarawak Laksa, which is excellent. Somehow the taste has a right balance to it, not too creamy and not too spicy. The prawns served are quite big. After so many years they've managed to maintain the quality of the Laksa. But I do wish they clean up the place a bit which looks dated and dirty.

    The laksa stall in front facing the roundabout is constantly good, with rich and sumptuous broth. Still priced reasonably Plus, the guy running it is always cheerful and friendly. The stir fry stall here also offer the proper kl hokkien mee. The popiah here is also good and decent size. Just that the environment could well do with some spring cleaning and sprucing up.

    One of my fav Fried bee hoon.. RM 7 with cha siu, fish cake, prawn & more.. flavorful with sufficient wok hei serve with chili padi… happy tummy..

  • 3/5 Kenny B. 10 months ago on Google
    Overrated.. taste like normal ordinary laksa. This is more to tourist laksa. There are better laksa out there other place.

  • 1/5 Jo-Lynn L. 11 months ago on Google
    Worst laksa I've had in a while. I ordered a large for RM9. Chunky dry chicken slices, noodles were overcooked and starchy, overwhelming taste of stale santan in the gravy. Do not recommend.

  • 2/5 tm s. 1 year ago on Google
    Deep fried beehoon is delicious. There are a number of stalls. The place however is run down.

  • 4/5 Koakumanao 10 months ago on Google
    Nice open air area with high ceiling and well covered from the sun. Service is lightning fast as they are used to serving large crowds. The bihun and laksa broth themselves were perfect. Just spicy enough for the flavors to come through and not overpowering as to numb the senses. It is also quite creamy and mellow enough that you can slurp up the entire bowl of soup. But toppings are slightly different. Minced meat instead of shredded chicken and no cilantro herbs. The prawns look appetizing at first glance and appear to be deveined but they actually werent perfectly clean and werent that fresh. Overall the base is good but the mediocre toppings kinda ruin it.

    The laksa stall in front was closed during my visit. The noodles are of average like any other mee stalls. Coffee is tasteless.

  • 5/5 Johnjeet D. 2 years ago on Google
    They lived up to their reputation. I will surely return. Table service was fast too.

  • 5/5 Hart L. 1 year ago on Google
    Not comparing any Sarawak lasak, this is a version worth trying. Slightly thicker broth and sambal adds some kick to the overall experience. If lime is needed, add one more. It's a version to try and I like the friendliness of the seller. For those driving, you need to get the right exit to come here. Highly recommended.

  • 4/5 Xeno V. 1 year ago on Google
    Great place to have brunch and lunch. many delicious food to choose from. Their famous one is laksa. Most considered this as the best laksa in kuching. Prices are also reasonable. Cleanliness still has room for improvement.

  • 5/5 baby b. 1 year ago on Google
    Best place to eat ur favourite laksa, price is very reasonable and you can ask for chicken feet curry. Parking is quite hard here, need patience sure will get one 😁

  • 5/5 Mashitah C. 8 months ago on Google • 1 review
    There are two laksa stalls in this kopitiam. I personally prefer the laksa stall that is facing the roundabout (next to the kolo mee stall) as this stall provides thicker broth and is really flavourful.
