We were on the hunt for a Malaysian dinner and the concierge sent us along to Sri Melaka- it was also tipped in my guide-book. Good thing as the decor and ambiance are not that enticing, but having had two recommendations and encouraged by the fact that the place was packed with locals and tourists we took the plunge. The...

If you are looking for "HALAL" food, do come here. They offers malaysian style food. Price is very reasonable. Very popular among local and tourist. Location is in Kampung Air, Kota Kinabalu. Very easy to find.

Went there for late lunch on our first day in KK, after recommendation from our hotel staff. It was a good choice! The service was good and the food tasted liked we expected. Ordered four dishes to share with our kids aged 3 and 5, some rice and wonderful juice. Total price was 63 RM

If you are looking for Malaysian cuisine there is only one place to go in KK and that's Sri Melaka. Of course the adventurous can try the fare from the markets.

We dined here on advice from the hotel concierge. It is a fairly large restaurant with ground and first floor seating. The staff speak English ok, and their menu is also in English. The food was great and the prices were a little bit more than the open-aired restaurants, which is fair enough with the air conditioning and table service... More

Very busy place, prices average. Of the 3 dishes we ordered 1 came out wrong but was nice enough. 1 vegetarian dish was cooked in fish sauce and was overwhelmingly fishy. The beef rendang was delicious. You get charged for the peanuts and the wet towels which should really be complimentary
