What Travellers Say
Reviews Summary
Willala is celebrated for its exceptional Australian-style fish and chips, featuring light, crispy batter and fresh, juicy fish. Reviewers often praise the owner's friendly and accommodating service, with special mention of his efforts to cater to Muslim diners. However, the restaurant's popularity means long wait times are common, especially during peak hours, as it's a one-person operation. Some visitors also noted instances of poor service related to seating arrangements.
"The shop was manned single handedly by the owner. The business was so good that I was told to put my name down for reservations. We reached at 4pm, and was told to come back around 5pm. Pls come latest by 4pm, as orders prepared after 5pm would only be for take-outs. The owner was kind enough to allow us to sit and finish a quick meal though it was already past 5pm.
The owner spoke English so it was not difficult to communicate, and was very friendly. We enjoyed the food so much! The batter was very crispy, and meat was fresh and moist. A pity that we only had it once as we couldnt catch the opening hours. I would love to come back again someday. This set was 26k won :)"

"As other reviewer has commented, the batter is good.The fried fish felt juicy, but not oily at all. I arrived late at 4:40pm, so had to order for takeout.
Despite that i ate it while walking coz you gotta eat em hot 👌.
Recommend to come earlier and dine-in for fresh crispy meal"

"Overall, the batter was amazing. The waiting time is long as the owner single-handedly cook the food."
