Got the special fried rice from Uber eats. It was a large portion and quite flavoursome. It had prawn, chicken pieces and some veggies. Filling lunch.
Good quick eat. Food is served fast. Customer service is good.
This place was eerily quiet on a Friday evening. The interior was very spacious and the set up reminded me of some of the restaurants in Malaysia. Service was very pleasant.
I had the fish head curry laksa with hokkien noodles. The laksa broth was alarmingly oily but it tasted amazing....probably one of the better laksa in town. It was well spiced and there was a generous amount of nicely fried fish head pieces. The fried eggplant was lovely but I didn't appreciate the broccoli. Genuine laksa should not have broccoli, carrots or tomatoes (one of my pet peeves!).
I first tried Sambal Kampung in their new outlet in Doncaster (no zomato listing yet) and really liked their food there. It's pleasing to see that this was consistent across their branches.
Good place for a cheap and cheerful asian feed. It has options from all over asia to choose from. Quite a few come from the bain marie which I don't usually prefer but that is what you get for the price. I had the laksa which was very good (not quite at the level of somewhere like Laksa King but good for something that wasn't their only focus. This is a popular place and I totally get why.
Hidden away in Little Collins Street, came to this place for a quick lunch. Wasn't disappointed. Ordered a Chicken Curry Laksa and Cendol. Curry laksa broth was tasty and lemak. Nice chunky morsels of chicken. Generous serve of noodles. Cendol also tasted good.
Great venue for a quick lunch during the week. Came here with a bunch of colleagues. Order the special fried noodle, the meat was slightly overcooked and burned and it's too oily for me. But overall nothing amazing tok talk about
So love the authentic Malaysian flavor. Both the quick lunch bar and ordered dishes are very tasty. Average service during peak hours, good service when it’s not crazy busy. Recommended.

Third Sambal Kampung outlet that I have tried so far and it's just as good as the others. This time I ordered crispy noodle with egg gravy and it was served pretty generously. Taste wise it was also pretty good. The place is a bit darker and simpler than the other outlets but hey I don't mind. Oh and they are pretty generous with the chilli!
Affordable Malaysian food in CBD. Relaxed atmosphere and friendly customer service!! Love their CKT! Can't go wrong with that. Reasonable price too.. Definitely recommending this to my family when they are here.
Great Malaysian food in the city. Their char kway teow is one of those that have plenty of wok hay and tastes delicious. Authentic malaysian drinks like pearl barley water and teh tarik are also avaible though I wish them to be a little less sweet. Will come back again.
HOME DELIVERY REVIEW - GOOD QUALITY MALAYSIAN CUISINE
Sambal Kampung is a popular restaurant (actually two outlets one in the suburbs and this one in the city) that serves authentic SE Asian favourites.
Home delivery is never quite the same as the in-restaurant experience but Sambal Kampung does a good job of packaging up the meal. As I am not far from the restaurant, the meal arrived quickly and hot.
We wanted a vegetarian dinner and had a number of choices.
We went with kangkung (green vegetable), beancurd vegetable dish, "mapo doufu without the pork" and veg fried rice... oh and a not quite so vegetarian chicken and corn soup.
The dishes were all quite acceptable.. except for the soup which was bland and gluggy.
hands down the best value Malaysian place in the CBD! (especially for dinner) generous portion sizes, tastes as good and cheaper than their fancier competition
can recommend the Bak Kut Teh, Laksa, Nasi Goreng, Chicken Rice and Singapore Fried Noodles they are all solid
Came here on a Thursday night. Very relaxed atmosphere . Had veggie laksa, roti and a glass of wine. Definitely too much food for 1 person but it looked so good I had to try laksa was spicy and yummy and the tofu was fried perfectly. The roti was light and flakey. Couldn’t ask for more when travelling for business and want a quick mello not overpriced meal.
Good food, fast service and congested seating. Overall a good experience. If you go a little before 12 noon, it's very likely that you would be able to choose the table.
Awesome taste in decent price. Too bad the shop is not visible from main street. Been here twice, only because I stumbled upon it; it is in a tiny lane somewhere in CBD. Staff is friendly and patient too, especially during the crazy lunch time rush.
Enjoyed the Malaysian chicken curry there
Pretty decent Asian food but found the fried flat noodles (fried way teow) rather bland and lacking the authentic charcoal taste. The coffee was seriously overpowered with condensed milk. It'll definitely give you the needed sugar rush and the unwanted diabetes too
