Our second time here and definitely won’t be our last!! Our new goto zi char place. As a chinese convert, this halal zi char place has super authentic flavours. Ngoh hiang IS SO YUMMY, owner customized the Sichuan claypot chicken to our taste delicios, hokkien mee was superb and kang kong spicy enough solid. Can’t wait to try other dishes from here moving forward 🤪 thanks boss 🫡

I usually don’t write reviews unless people ask me to, but today is an exception. No one asked, yet I just had to share!
I’m a regular customer, and today my husband and I tried their new steamed fish (saw it on their TikTok introducing Thai cuisine). No regrets at all, every dish we ordered was still as good as always.
The boss even introduced us to his Thai sauce…seriously, its a must-buy! The steamed fish sauce really reminded us of being back in Bangkok. Plus, the boss kept topping up the soup for us after we finished it super generous!
Overall: 5/5 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟Totally worth it, and definitely deserving of a good review. Let the pictures say the rest. Definitely will comeback dinein and purchase their zesty chilly!

The food is too good for the price point, really big portion and affordable. If you haven’t been there , definitely try out and I’ll assure you’ll go back for more . The staff’s also super friendly.

Had a craving for the honeydew chicken noodles.
Haven't been here for a very long time.
It's unfortunate that the taste has totally changed.
Not like what it's use to be.
Fried wantan doesn't really have any fillings
Pricewise have increased quite significantly.

Service has been amazing every single time we are here even though it has been busy. We have been going there for over 30 years, even before the current owner and the food has always been a source of comfort for our family. They even remember our orders and preferences as well. There is a large variety of food and they are always doing their best to improve their menu. Their quality has always been top notch. The restaurant looks humble but the people and food are more than what you’ll find at restaurants outside.

We dropped by Cahaya Restaurant mainly because most other places were packed, and it was one of the few spots with available seating. The food itself was okay, decent flavour, nothing to complain about, but nothing that really stood out either.
Price-wise, it’s not the cheapest option around, especially when compared to similar eateries nearby. For what we ordered, it felt slightly on the higher side, though still acceptable if you’re just looking for a convenient place to settle down and eat without waiting too long.
Overall, Cahaya is a decent fallback option when everywhere else is crowded, but not necessarily a place I’d go out of my way for.

Food was really tasty. Service was great too. Maybe the salted egg sotong was abit pricey at $19. Nevertheless, it was a good meal. Definitely will head back

Amazing food and service, easily better than any Zi Char (Chinese Seafood Restaurant) out there.
I would recommend the Thai claypot prawn glass noodles is very flavourful for people who loves blackpepper; prawns are fresh and sweet.
Thai lemongrass Chicken cutlet with fried rice is really good too, especially with their special thai seafood chilli sauce.
Even the Ngoh Hiang is delicious and satisfying.
Will definitely come again.
