Village Park Restaurant

Woke up early one sunday morning just to make a trip to this famous restaurant, for a plate of their signature Nasi Lemak and its worth our effort. Plate of fragrant rice arrived fluffy with each grain clearly separated yet still moist - not sticky or soggy, and lightly infused with coconut milk and pandan. The star was the Fried Chicken - A whole golden-brown leg, its skin shatteringly crisp with flecks of spiced crumbs, while the lightly seasoned meat inside stays tender and juicy. The sambal glossy and rich, tying the rice and chicken together beautifully. On the side, crunchy ikan bilis and peanuts provide that addictive bite, while the egg balances the richness. It’s a plate that feels generous, comforting, and bold all at once for us. We ordered their Fried Noodles and Bee Hoon as well, and although they were not signature dishes, both were well fried and balance in flavours. We didnt like their Bagadil and Potato Curry Puff (Pastry was ok, but fillings had an overwhelming turmeric flavour) though. Overall, we will return just their Nasi Lemak and Ayam Goreng, next time round when in KL again. Good to reach before 8am on Sunday, as we did not encounter any queue and found seats immediately by ourselves as no service staffs attended to us, due to full capacity. However, its better to approach their service staffs for seats, as ordering procedures are rather confusing after that.

At last, I have the opportunity to taste one of the finest Nasi Lemak in KL. The nasi lemak featuring the deep-fried drumstick was incredibly tender and tasty. The sambal chili had perfect flavor and spiciness. I was informed that sambal cuttlefish is also good and comes in large servings, but it was unavailable when I got there. The morning was already busy with numerous food delivery drivers waiting to pick up their orders. The orders clearly show me its popularity. One should anticipate waiting at least an hour in line during lunchtime... The hours of operation are daily from 6:30 am to 5:30 pm.

It was a Sunday outing and we did expect the crowd. The Nasi Lemak: 1. Love the fragrance rice 2. Sambal was my kind of sambal. Well balance between sweet spicy. 3. Chicken - mama'mia lovely. The table setting : It's a mess. All the tables are squash to max the capacity which made it stuffy. I said that because if your next neighbour fart, you will be blessed with whatever aroma definitely. 🤣🤣🤣 So as much as I ❤️ the taste of your Nasi Lemak, if i suddenly crave for it, I will only grab food them to unsure the survival of my Nose

Great nasi lemak - definitely must try at least once! Went before lunch time, restaurant was full but seated easily. Did wish they gave more chilli on my nasi. If this is out of the way for you, they're on grab food (which i may have done if i were on a tight schedule). Just look at the bags of delivery waiting to be picked up at the restaurant entrance...

They close at 5.30pm and we arrived around 5pm. The boss was friendly and welcomed us in and told us to make our order soon as the rice was selling out. Have always wanted to try it and now that I have, I would say it is a very good plate of nasi lemak. The rice is fluffy and flavourful however in my opinion slightly dry. Personally I find MK 's rice slightly more moist and has more coconut fragrance. Nevertheless, the rice is still top tier among all of the nasi lemaks ive tried. The side dishes such as Ikan billis and peanuts and boiled egg are just sides with nothing to rave about. The fried chicken though.. that is incredible. The marinate is fragrant, the chicken is incredibly juicy. And the crispy toppings they come along with gave the fried chicken such a good texture contrast. Simply put, the fried chicken was amazing. The chilli is spicy but just slightly sweeter and is more tolerable and goes well with the rice. Side dishes aren't expensive too. However it still is just a plate of nasi lemak that lacks multiple dimensional taste profile, so it did get a little boring halfway into the meal. Nevertheless, I enjoyed my meal and would come back if im around the area. This is a very good plate of Nasi Lemak.

Posted 1st October 2025 A weekday early morning breakfast approximately 7am. Busy, but service was fast and efficient. Nasi lemak ayam goreng (fried chicken), rice was fragrant and sambal was a bit spicy for me. The anchovies and peanut portion was small. The chicken came in a leg quarter was juicy but not overly oily but would be better if there were more herbs added to the marination. Overall a good plate of Nasi lemak. Parking located nearby was nearly full at this time.

This place needs no introduction- everyone and their dentist knows that Village Park is the destination for Nasi Lemak. I found that it lived up to the hype. Juicy, tender chicken, spicy chilli, good portion sizes for a decent price. What's not to love? We tried the Ayam Rendang and the Ayam Goreng. If you're not a huge fan of fried food like me, Ayam Rendang is for you. Would certainly come back again, perhaps at an off peak time though.

After hearing endless hype about this place, I finally got to try it - and it absolutely lives up to its legendary reputation. Their nasi lemak with fried chicken is nothing short of spectacular, with golden-crisp chicken that somehow stays incredibly juicy inside. The secret marinade gives it an unforgettable herbal fragrance that sets it apart from ordinary fried chicken. The rice deserves its own praise - perfectly cooked with just the right texture and coconut flavor. Even the lontong surprised me with its rich, comforting flavors. Yes, you'll likely wait during peak lunch hours (come before 12pm if you can), but the efficient service keeps things moving. Prices are more than reasonable for the quality and portions. A must-visit for anyone who appreciates great Malaysian comfort food done right.
