What Travellers Say
Reviews Summary
Almizan Satay House is a long-standing Johor Bahru favorite, celebrated for its tender and flavorful satay with a perfectly balanced peanut sauce. While the satay receives widespread praise, some diners note inconsistencies in other dishes, with occasional complaints about sweetness or portion sizes. The casual, family-friendly atmosphere and polite service contribute to a generally positive dining experience.
"The mutton was cooked just right: it was soft on the inside and had just the appropriate amount of sear on the outside. The peanut sauce was thick and tasty, and it went perfectly with the skewers. The staff was polite and helpful, and the place had a casual, welcoming vibe. The portions were acceptable for the price, and everything was hot and fresh when it was served."

"I have driven past this eatery house for quite some time and finally I get to try some of the foods they have to offer.
I arrived there at about 3:30 p.m. and the house has just opened it's doors.
It was drizzling and cooling at the same time, therefore I have decided to order Nasi Ayam Sambal and Chop Choi for starters.
Ordering of meals was through the QR code which brings you a list of foods you can order but app was not that fully functional, therefore customers had to pay at counter.
Nasi Ayam Sambal:
Presentation was quite stunning for me. I didn't expect the chicken rice to be served on a plate somewhat like a plant base pot. Anyway the sambal was sweet and slightly spicy but overall okay. The chicken rice was covered with egg, Pattaya-style. So the rice was not soggy. Overall I give you about 3.5 / 5⭐
Choy Choi:
Nice presentation but I expected for the quantity to be slightly more. They were not many variety of vegetables, mostly cabbages.
Was quite disappointed with the taste. Was lacking seasoning and a bit more of flour would be nice to thicken the gravy. I hope the restaurant would improve the dish overall.
Sorry, just 2/5⭐
Cikong (cold):
The dessert was served really cool because the ice chunks were huge. Overall it was sweet but still liking some originality. Overall taste seems like I was drinking Sirap rose. Nice effort by the eatery house but hopefully there should be some improvements next time.
2/5 ⭐
What of caution if the weather turns bad or when it rains heavily even the first line of sears will be caught in the rain. You can see the photo of where I was seated and half of my table were already wet. So instead of lengthening the shelter, the stuff lowered down the gate shutter instead."

"Premium style satay, if u eat outside is half the price, but half the quality. Each satay is filled with meat, no fat in the middle, poor points due to watery sauce, slow service, slow check out of eating cart, aircon didn’t seem to be working. Overly staff, slightly overly priced. Good to come once for the feel."

Satay Madura differs from the average Satay by having the meats heavily spiced and swimming in gravy. Almizan is a rather popular chain of Satay restaurants and this happens to be their specialty. We recommend the set that comes in either 10 sticks of chicken (RM14.90), beef (RM15.90) or mutton (RM16.90), all three set comes with Nasi Himpit.
