I saw it was promoted on TikTok so I shared it with my mom and she said she want to try. So we finally came here. We were so looking forwards to it so much. Unfortunately, the food was a let down for us.
Colek being the name of the place, the "Branding" of the restaurant, I was expecting a lot of choices. It was quite limited, to be honest. If you want to come here solely for the colek, just know that it's nothing really special. Just normal goreng tepung like any other roadside stalls you can get.
As for the Maggi Sotong, the sotong was kenyal and the Maggi texture reminds of of those days in hostel where you don't have stove so you just out the Maggi into a metal mug and pour hot boiling water into it. It's really a disappointment to us.
The total bill comes up to MYR 61. I rarely say this but I'm not satisfied spending so much for something of this quality.
Oh, there's no proper ventilation too here. So if you're going for any important meeting after here, you better have a 2nd set of clothes ready to change in your car or you will be bringing the smell of burnt food to whomever you're meeting.

What you see from outside is not what you feel inside. Once entered, it's totally different environment already. It feels relaxed, the decoration and design of this restaurant is wow. The food was delicious. The price quite affordable. Service qas fast enough. Just one lacking, there's no ample place for parking. Be careful when park your car here. It's just beside the main road.

Daging bakar was lovely albeit a bit salty. Sauce was nice too. Set seafood berasap was ok. Seafood was super fresh except for the crab that was tasteless and not fresh. Too bad there was no sauce to accompany the seafood platter, so it tasted a bit bland. Sotong bunting was very good. True to the name, lots of telur sotong found inside. Super delicious. Sotong was fresh and sauce was good. Colek was good too.
If I were to return, definitely I would oder the sotong bunting and colek.
Food is nice cooked, environment very cozy, would repeat again. ☺️☺️

First of all, i would like to say the service was super slow and there's a lot of miss communication between the workers there. First we ordered 5 teh tarik and 1 green tea and the cashier replied okay, so we expect that we’re going to get 5 hot teh tarik but instead we got 3 iced tea and 1 green tea. Next, we ask the waiter why is it iced tea then he replies oh we didn’t have teh tarik, then why did the cashier didn’t say a thing. Next, we order kuew teow sup and it didn’t arrive till 1.30 hours later, we asked the cashier why is it so late and we want a refund and they said we didn’t have kuew teow sup. Why did the cashier key in the item if they didn’t have it. Other than that, they took too long to serve the rest of our food. A lot of people i see was getting mad because their food also was late and the cashier work too slow till there is a long line of people. Lastly, most of the food tasted bland and way to expensive for the food to be tasted like that. Overall it was a bad experience for me, I expected it to be a good one since i saw it on Tiktok that the environment, food, and service was good. Please improve if you care about your customers, if not you’re going to lose a lot of your customer. We don’t care if the price is expensive if the food and service was good.
