Restoran Hua Mui JB

Hua Mui in JB is the original outlet that has been around for many years and still carries that nostalgic charm. My last visit here was before COVID, and it was nice to return again. One noticeable change is the menu, which now offers more variety than before. We ordered the traditional breakfast set - soft boiled eggs, kaya butter toast, and Mee Siam with fried chicken. Everything tasted authentic and wonderfully old-school. The flavors brought back memories of classic kopitiam breakfasts. A great place to enjoy heritage-style local food.

First time trying, and overall 4/5. The menu is very extensive and lots of items to choose from, from toast to local delights, porridge etc. We had the nasi lemak, chicken porridge and laksa. The nasi lemak and laksa portion is quite big and some other dishes also seems big, and hence, will recommend to share. I had the nasi lemak, and thumbs up to the ikan bilis, chlli and rice. The friend chicken cutlet is alright, and maybe will go for otak instead. The ambience is very nostagic with big open window.

It's a bit of a walk from JB Sentral but this location is primed with many eateries. For this trip, I finally convinced my family to head to the area for food. First up is Hua Mui, which was also opening at Aeon Tebrau City. The establishment is open air and we got seats near the window that overlooks the junction. Food wise, we picked out some interesting dishes that we don't normally see. For three pax, we had 3 mains, 3 drinks and 2 sides. Eggs on garlic toast? Please give it to me 😍 My 3 layers experience didn't extend to wheatgrass, so that's part of our order. While not amazingly good, the food is hearty and the vibe is right. You will definitely feel like you are in Malaysia while dining here.

I had a very nice breakfast at Restoran Hua Mui JB today. This is a famous old style coffee shop in Johor Bahru and the atmosphere feels very classic and comfortable. The place was busy but the service was still fast and friendly. I ordered kopi O kosong and teh O siew tai. Both drinks were very good. The kopi O kosong had a strong coffee aroma and tasted very smooth. The teh O siew tai was light and refreshing. It was not too sweet and very easy to drink. Both drinks were served hot and fresh which made the breakfast even more enjoyable. I also ordered half boiled eggs, kaya butter toast, and mee soto. The half boiled eggs were cooked perfectly. The egg was soft and silky and tasted great with soy sauce and pepper. The kaya butter toast was one of my favorite items. The toast was crispy outside and soft inside. The kaya was fragrant and sweet and the butter melted nicely with the warm bread. The mee soto was also very delicious. The soup was rich and flavorful with a nice aroma of spices. The noodles were soft and the ingredients were fresh. It was warm and comforting which is perfect for breakfast. The restaurant itself has a very nice traditional feeling. It feels like a place with a lot of history. The environment is lively and many locals come here to enjoy their breakfast. The staff are friendly and efficient even when the restaurant is busy. Overall I had a wonderful breakfast experience here. The food is tasty, the drinks are great, and the service is good. I will definitely come back again when I visit Johor Bahru. Highly recommended for anyone who loves traditional local breakfast. Five stars from me. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Highly recommended! The texture, taste, and aroma were all on point. The gravy was rich and flavorful, the noodles perfectly cooked, and the egg soft and silky. A comforting dish that feels homemade but elevated. Definitely worth trying if you love hearty, comforting meals. And great service by Mdm Siew Phua👍🏼

Authentic local food with a wide variety of choices. The laksa is really good — thick, creamy, and full of flavour 😋. The toast as well 👍🏻 Overall, the food and drinks are tasty and affordable, with very good service too. Best to come early to avoid long queues.

This was my second time at Restoran Hua Mui. The first time was just takeaway, which they had another line for that. This time we reached around 8:35am, which there was a queue already. Just wait in the queue & wait for the staff to call you. I waited for around 10-15mins at that time. Place wasn't the biggest, or most comfortable, but it really gave the rustic vibe, which elevated the dining experience, compared to takeaway. The menu is very extensive, but categorised well, so not too messy. Staffs were friendly, & also very service-oriented & always ready. The kampung soft-boiled eggs were fresh!

We’re visiting from KL and this place was recommended by our JB friends — and honestly, it did not disappoint! The food is goooooddddd and the portions are really big, definitely worth the price. Even though we came on a weekday, the place was almost full house, which shows how popular it is. Lots of people dining in the whole time. The environment is nice and chill too, very suitable to lepak and hang out with friends or family. Will definitely come again when we’re in JB!
