The service was prompt and very courteous, we were greeted with a smile and very good manners. The food didn’t take too long to be prepared and it was definitely up to par, very well cooked and prepared as good as possible given the type of food we ordered (Nasi Goreng and Mutu Fish Curry).
I love this place. Just went back after 20 years and the menu is exactly the same and still delicious. My favs are chilli crab and laksa... so tasty. The new (3 years) place in Subi has zero ambience but the service and food are great.
Tucked away in Subiaco village. Nice atmosphere, attentive service and tasty well priced Malaysian food particularly the nasi lemak which was enjoyed. Visited for a quiet midweek lunch. I would happily go there again. Recommended.
Delightful service, clean and well-run restaurant and affordable food. Too much cabbage and sauce in some dishes but the beef rendang was tender and tasty.
The car park outside is expensive but there's an okay car park nearby.
A group of Perth Food Bloggers and I enjoyed a foodie tour of Subiaco, to rediscover one of Perth’s hubs of great entertainment, dining and drinks. We had an unofficial 4th stop on the tour at Bibik Chan’s Kitchen. The popular Malay eatery, that once resided on Stirling Highway for over 30 years, has relocated to Subiaco and is now found next to The Village Bar.
Very flavourful Malaysian food with a good amount of spice! We went at lunch time and tried the curry laksa and nasi lemak, comparable to street food in Malaysia (but much bigger serves!). Decor is a bit dated however service was friendly and food delicious.
Hands down BIbik Chan makes the best nasi lemak in Perth. Other dishes worth mentioning include their Chilli crab and bee hoon goreng which tastes homemade and is delicious. Please open on Saturdays for lunch Bibik Chan so we can get our lunchtime nasi lemak fix on weekends :)
Great little local restaurant. All food was delicious. The soft shell crab with south beach sauce was AH-mazing! Service was attentive and the price was very reasonable. BYO is also very convenient. Will be back soon.
It's been a few years since I've visited Bibik Chans. I can remember the place so vividly from my Uni days. The satay is still as tasty, nasi goreng still as fragrant, and rendang still as moist. thumbs up
Cute place. Well. Of course there is better Asian food around, probably even in Perth.
This place with its very switched on cute little waitress is surely no fine dining experience, no hipster Japanese overpriced and still foul food, but just honest Asian food, modified for Straya.
If you want proper Asian food, go to Asia. (As with any cuisine.)
Thankfully, my Satay Chicken was NOT devoid of any main ingredients, Satay sauce and chicken could be found on the plate.
I am unable to judge anyone else's expectations, but for $39 Inc. three starters, mains (and corkage) my boyfriend and I got exactly what we expected. Maybe even more. So take a chill pill, see ya at Bibik Chan

Its nice. Thank you Nirvana, you have just managed to insult the population of Perth. I was not raised on vegemite or pizza and fast food and rarely eat it. I love fine dining and one of my favourite restaurants is Billy Kwongs in Sydney. I wish it could come to Perth. That said Bibik Chans is what it is. It is cheap. We paid $29 for two people. Our food was fine. We have been there a number of times and some dishes are not as good as others. Our beef satays were a bit chewy so go the chicken or have the chicken wings. It is not the best food in Perth but it is edible and it is enjoyable if you just understand that this is a restaurant that for us caters when we are on a budget and is a place we go to before watching a movie at the Windsor. It is not and is never going to be your high end restaurant. Just sit back and relax and don't stress whats in front of you unless you have the high price tag that goes with it. There are certainly better restaurants around but this is not a bad place as you will see when you go it is packed.
Good Value. Excellent food and service. Nice to go to a place and enjoy the meal and not be over charged for what you get.
Great Little Place. We have loved everything we have ordered at this place. Quick and efficient service and did I mention value for money! Love the cosy ambience and the satay chicken. the beef curry is pretty good too. Totally recommend it if you are just looking for a cheap dine out experience at a great spot!
UPDATE: We were a little surprised to see they had moved to Subi, but the food and service is still the same, a great cheap option ($35 for 2 people)! Sadly there is no outdoor area anymore, and it does get very loud inside with that tiled floor, so be prepared for that when its busy.

Had a lovely dinner in the garden out back, the ikan masak pedas is highly recommended! Very tangy and spicy with perfectly cooked fish.
Delicious little place just round the corner from us. Lovely, friendly service and home-made style food. Curry puffs, Satays and Mee Goreng noodles are superb. It's great value for money too. Bring a bottle of wine: no corkage! Love Bibik Chan.
One the secret gems of Nedlands. This simple but tasty little restaurant on Stirling Highway is one of our favourite local places to eat. The friendly and unpretentious wait staff are always more that happy to help. I especially like having a glass of red (corkage free BYO) over beef rendang, sesame chicken and steamed rice dishes. Will continue to return to Bibiks.
The price of the meals means that you forgive the patchy service! Great value here - try the satay, they're well known for it. A good option for fast food.
Good Value. Its quick. Staff are polite. Decent menu with some very nice dishes.
Excellent Restaurant. Bibiks is very understated and easy to miss if you drive too fast on Stirling Highway. The food is excellent, we dine here often and the prices are so cheap. The staff are very quiet and you hardly notice them running around even its just a small restaurant. The decor and layout is nothing special, but then it doesnt need to be because the food alone sees this place regularly full. Always looking forward to the next time we can go back.
So good!. Very tasty food that had a nice spicy bite to it! Great value for money and although simply presented inside and out, is a place without pretensions and just does what it does really well.
Great food, fast service and $15 per head for entree and main!!! Awesome will be back.
Cheap and cheerful. Noodles not great, but the nasi padang is great value and yummy. Obviously might not meet the standards of the Matt Prestons among us though
Love it. We dine here at least once a week. My favorite is boxing chicken and 5 spice rolls. I dont know where else to get these 2 dishes so i always go to Bibik. Cant fault the place, staff are great, food is so cheap and service is excellent. Its not very stylish but i would rather good food over good decor any day.
Cheap!. This place is so ridiculously cheap it's not funny. Most of the mains were around $8. The rendang curry was nice, the laksa not really, but for the price you're paying to dine in it doesn't really matter. There's a nice garden area out the back. Unfortunately we were the only people at the restaurant at 8.30!
How could you go wrong?. Ahhhh, finally a chance to write about Bibik Chan's or Bib's as it's affectionately known.
The venue is nothing special and the service isn't anything to write home about, however, nothing but good, cheap Indonesian/Malaysian food should be expected. The decor is pretty horrible, in fact you'll more than likely find yourself sat at an outdoor setting, indoors.
We went here as a group of 6 on a Sunday evening. As usual, we went overboard with the ordering as there are so many great dishes available on the menu. The rendang and nasi goreng are always a favourite, as is anything with the Palm Beach prefix.
The whole meal for us that night came to $90! We frequently wonder whether it is actually cheaper to eat at Bib's than to cook at home.
Nothing flash, just good quality and value for money. Highly recommended!

Quick fix. I laugh every time I step into this place - straight from the 80's, the same decor and seating and plates and cutlery for years and years - I didn't know that Corelle plates still existed.
Look, the service is quick, the meals are honest and simply presented, certainly cheap and no fuss. Not pretentious, not upmarket, not fancy - and that's the charm of this place. Definitely try the satay.
Very very tasty meals and soooooo cheap!!! Two meat satay dishes with rice and two entrees only $35. You couldn't buy the ingredients and make it yourself for that price or authentic taste. Very good food, very good company, what more could a girl want?? Ok, ice cream ....
Ignore those comments from "Melbourne lover". This place is fantastic value for money food! Great service and warm but quiet atmosphere. Melbourne lover is probably still bitter about toll roads etc.
Had lunch here, consisting of a Rendang along with Gado-Gado. Both dishes were very good. The beef meat in the Rendang was beautifully cooked and just fell apart in the mouth. The amount of chilli was just right. Enough to feel the heat and be borderline fiery, but still allowed you to taste the flavours.
Surprisingly good! Found this restaurant on Entertainment book so came and try, price is VERY reasonable! Food is good! Hidden gem will definitely come back!
Subiaco's hidden Asian fusion gem. Great spot and reasonably priced. Delicious food. Attentive service. Feel good wholesome cuisine. You won't be W.
Will return soon 🙂.
Keep it up
The food is deliciously healthy and the price right at $9 meal. No waiting! Prompt and friendly service at lunchtime. We decided to add a few more coins to the metre and stay longer. Can't wait to return for a guilt-free meal. Friday evenings the parking is free after 5.30pm around the corner :-)
Beautiful lunch, very fresh, great service. Would love to go again if in the area
Good cheap eats. Not one to take a girl on her first date or for that anniversary dinner. But looking for a casual well priced BYO? This is your place. Staff are super friendly and there is a homely feel. Seafood is great. Beef satay sticks are a must.
