Xiang Mun Restaurant • 香满楼海鲜饭店 in Selangor

"Great food and service. Place was packed but the food served within 15 minutes. Price was very reasonable. Super recommended for dinner when at Cheras!"

"If you are looking for a Chinese restaurant with a nice ambience, this is not the place for you. While it is comfortable with air conditioning, the decor is non-existent. There are boxes stacked everywhere in every nook and you see workers sorting and cleaning vegetables out in the open. However, Xiang Mun more than makes up for it with great food at very reasonable prices. We came here as a party of 7 and we ordered a good spread of dishes with meat, seafood and vegetables. One of their signature dishes is chicken rice. However this is not the usual chicken rice that both you and I know. Firstly, the steamed kampong chicken comes mixed with the rice in a large clay pot. The rice is not the usual chicken rice either as it's coated with some kind of herbal sauce. For the pork lard lovers, you'll be happy to know that the dish is topped with a liberal sprinkling of the forbidden stuff. The portion we ordered is for 4 people and it comes with half a chicken but the rice portion is huge. We originally planned to order some extra white rice since there were 7 of us but in the end we didn't. In fact, there were leftovers that we decided to pack home. The other meat dish we ordered was the tong pao pork belly. The meat was really soft but still had enough texture to chew on. For seafood, we had crispy fried sotong and toman fish slice with ginger and scallions. The cuttle fish was quite crispy although a bit on the sweet side. Both portions were also on the generous side. For greens, we had a big plate of stir fried baby french beans. The entire meal came up to just under RM180 which I think is very reasonable. Food was good, portions were generous and service was fast although the restaurant was full on a Sunday afternoon."

"Big servings with a wide variety menu. One will be inclined to make several visits to try out the many choices available there. Taste is okay. Value for money."

"Fuss free place to eat many dishes at reasonable prices. Food is a hit and miss but the service is quite good. They even volunteered to take video, instead of photo, when we tossed yee sang. Big portions even though the set is for 6. Seating place is not clean though, and don't even look at the busy kitchen. Too many stray dogs at the outdoor seating."

"Tasty dishes are available at this unassuming restaurant. We came a couple of times and tried their deep fried pork knuckle, curry fish, taufu, signature chicken rice, dongpo pork, 3-style fish and hokkien mee. All were done very well but slightly on the salty side for us. Service was reasonably fast. Plenty of roadside parking available"

"The food here comes really fast, and price-wise it’s quite decent. The food has a heavier, saucier taste, but it’s really good. Even with the crowd, the shop manages it well. There’s also a lot of variety to choose from."

"Nice food. Price reasonable. Recommended. Will come again next time. Keep it up"
