"Had a good dinner at this restaurant, seated in air cond area. We visited around 6.30pm, plenty of available tables. It was almost fully occupied around 7pm. We ordered: - stir fry sayur sawit w/ garlic ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ - wet butter tiger prawn x4 ⭐⭐⭐⭐ - salted egg squid ⭐⭐⭐⭐ - fish maw soup ⭐⭐⭐ Coconut water is fresh and big portion!! Love it!! Worth the money la… For tiger prawn, you get to choose how many unit you want. You can request them to show you the size of it too. Boss is friendly. Will revisit them when I am back in town again."

"A Chinese restaurant (not halal). The restaurant stretches across the empty area between the two two rows of shoplots. I guess this means that a patron could enter to the restaurant from either of the two roads fronting the restaurant building. The seating area of this restaurant is either indoors (this is the air-conditioned section and occupies two shoplots) or outdoors (below the canopy joining the two opposite shoplots of the restaurant). Staff are friendly and willing to attend to your queries. No complaints for food. Parking looks like it could be limited should a banquet be hosted in the restaurant. But then, in this little town of Kudat, I doubt one would get a parking illegally"
