    My taste buds exploded lol. One of the best tasting asam pedas for me as I'm not really a fan of asam Pedas. But this is the best by far. Definitely a visit. But it gets really crowded and hard to get place to dine so if you're coming in groups, get someone to go and book a table. The price is reasonable too. We were a group of 7 and paid about 25usd or RM100~ for our menu.

    The food is very tasty and fresh. Sambal belacan is awesome. Asam pedas ikan pari, asam pedas telor ikan, telor dadar, asam pedas ikan jenahak are all very satisfying. BOTOK2 is very awesome taste. All these food costs us RM60.00 only too cheap if we were to compare with the amount of fish and food we ate. Alhamdulillah syukur nikmat allah😊😊

    The assam pedas here is a little more sour than Im used to. Not a bad thing though. I assume this is the way its done in Johor. Interestingly the sourness isnt carried into the fish. Available too are many other dishes to complement / enhance your dining experience. All in all a satisfying meal I wouldn't mind repeating again.

    A restaurant with traditional dishes and local vegetables. Large eating area but with limited parking space as customers need to park by the side of the road. Good is okay and the asam pedas is delicious. Do come early during lunch, before 12pm to avoid the place full during peak hour. Highly recommended.

    So eager to try their assam pedas but unfortunately we arrived late so could not expect much. Nevertheless the leftovers was enough to satisfy our cravings.

    If you are a hot sour (asam pedas) dish lover, you would be more than a happy customer. They have hot sour fishes (sembilang, pari, kembong, jenahak, telur tenggiri, mayong?), tetel meat, ulam, siput sedut, fried fishes and variety of other dishes. We tried the semilang, jenahak, tetel n fish egg hot sour dishes plus some ulam and masak lemak ~RM65. No hot drinks today, person in charge on leave💤? Today theres only ready made cold drinks (selasih, cincau and iced tea?) and warm water. Friendly and happy ladies behind the counters and serving 😁. The place quickly fills up with customers from 11.30am onwards. Bought 2 jenahak and tetel for take away ~RM48. Worth next visit to try other dishes 👍😊🇲🇾

    My wife and I came here in early March 2022. We enjoyed this place for the following reasons:- 1) We came here early at around 11am and luckily for us the asam pedas was freshly made. There were ikan jenahak, merah, pari and mayong. 2) I enjoyed the asam pedas though bear in mind that tast is subjective. My wife preferred asam pedas with the more tangy flavour while the one here leans to the salty side. That is a matter of preference and does not in any way mean the asam pedas was not satisfactory. 3) Unfortunately for us, our jenahak was slightly undercooked in the inside. They took it back and cooked it a bit more until it was well done. 4) My only criticism is that this place could improve on the other dishes as well. I enjoy ayam goreng with asam pedas. Here, the ayam goreng was so so.

    This is a large roadside restaurant where food is served in a queue, cafeteria-style. Do come early; we arrived 15 minutes after opening time and the snapper cuts had ran out! What delighted me was the variety of asam pedas (you choose the fish you want- snapper, "pari"/ray, "sembilang", "mayung", fish roe). The fish was nice and fresh. They also served fried squid roe, "mayung" roe and mussels as side dishes in little bowls- you don't get this in the average asam pedas restaurant. Although there were a few vegetable dishes, most of them were overcooked. The asam pedas was thick and slightly more sour/tangy than some other places. The spiciness level was very good for those used to asam pedas. For newbies who want to try asam pedas for the first time, I recommend looking for a less spicy option. (Johor asam pedas is totally different from Melaka asam pedas). Ambience- hot. Coupled with the spiciness of the asam pedas, this is usually the best way to have this sort of meal.

    One of the best I have tasted in Malaysia. In the picture are ikan Mayong asam pedas and its egg. Newly refurbish shop, nicely layout. Parking is still a hassle but no biggie.

    The Place to go when in Muar, craving for Asam Pedas Ikan Merah, Maung, Daging Tetel, a variety of dishes ready just waiting to be taken and tried. Drinks refill are free, parking is by the roadside. Come early so you can get a good parking and seating.

    Nice place, lots of tables to cater huge number of customer especially on weekends. Food are all good especially asam pedas. They taste a little bit sour compare to Melaka & Batu Pahat cooking style. 4 to 5 kinds of fish were cooked with asam pedas for our choice. Other dishes are also serve here.

    Hi everyone. This Asam Pedas place is a must if you have just arrived in Muar. The asam pedas is scrumptious, the taste is just nice (not spicy with a hint of sourness) and the service is quick. We had asam pedas ikan pari and ikan jenahak. The fish were fresh sweet. Definitely will repeat the experience ❤️

    Got stains on almost every each of the spoon if not all. Got a fly around fried chickens on shelf that time so no reason I take and eat it. Maybe these are normal and loved by the locals.

    This is the best ikan assam pedas that we’ve eaten by far in Muar. It’s just an extended hut type of eatery by the roadside. We were there at about 1pm, so it wasn’t at the start of lunch crowd, and the food on offer weren’t the freshest of the crop. But… the assam pedas was flavourful and tasty, fish was fresh. Vegetables aplenty. We had chicken curry as well as fried enoki. The side dishes of fried tofu and fried egg were tasty too. Parking wise it’s really by the road. Traffic wasn’t busy despite it being lunch hour.

    I went there during lunch two days streak and i satisfied with their food and services. The owner very friendly since he calling us “sedara” and “mak mentua / pak mentua. Very funny. They have ‘air balang’ and the refill is free.

    This was my 2nd visit here. WHY ? The Asam Pedas Telur ikan Tenggiri was to die for !! Cannot move on since the first visit here. The sourness and the sweetness of the thick chilli broth are just perfect !! The taste of each ingredients were just harmonize and compliment each other. It was just brilliant. I ended up tapaw one bag of the ikan tenggiri and ikan jenahak for dinner 🤣🤣🤣 One suggestion is that for ya'll to come as early as 11.30 am just before peak hours or u have to wait in line and before the best dishes sold out. Yup, fast selling indeed !! I've posted a full review abt this joint in my Tiktok @jarre_83 if ya'll want to know more 😅
