About Nasi Ayam Tat

Nestled on the ground floor of a busy commercial complex near Sultanah Bahiyah Highway in Alor Setar, this chicken rice spot draws a steady crowd, especially around lunch and dinner hours. The air is often filled with the aroma of chicken stock-infused rice, paired with roasted chicken and a range of condiments like chili and soy sauce, served alongside simple fresh vegetables. The setting is casual and somewhat bustling, with a mix of counter service and table seating that welcomes solo diners, groups, and college students alike.

People tend to come here craving a straightforward and comforting meal centered around chicken rice, with options to increase the portion of either chicken or rice for those with heartier appetites. While the self-service ordering means there can be a line during peak times, the pace of service remains swift. The spot also offers tea, coffee, and some light bites that fit well with the laid-back vibe of the place. Some visitors appreciate the availability of outdoor seating and the convenience of free parking in the area, although the entrance accessibility can be a consideration for wheelchair users.

While the focus remains on the chicken rice, there’s a sense of familiarity and comfort in the straightforward flavors and casual dining experience, making it a reliable choice when seeking a quick bite or a simple, satisfying meal close to town.

What Locals Say

Nora From Google 5

My sister introduced this fantastic chicken rice restaurant. The place was quite busy when we got there, it must be excellent! To enjoy their chicken rice, I had to stay in line to place the order. There’s a regular and special chicken rice to choose from, and I ordered the special one for me. The difference between regular and special is the size of the chicken and the amount of gravy. On my first bite, I flipped because it was so delicious! I think we have a winner here! Best chicken rice in this town. We also ordered satay from next door cafe. Wow! Another excellent dish! Super authentic Malay-style satay with peanut sauce that I can’t get in NY! We loved this place. The women behind the counter who prepared the chicken rice were lovely, helpful, and hardworking. Recommended!

This spot truly stands out as a fantastic Nasi Ayam restaurant in Alor Setar. It operates on a self-service basis: you place your order at the counter, pay and collect your food, which isn't exactly my preference. Regardless, the Nasi Ayam is really good, and the prices are quite reasonable.

The Nasi Ayam (Chicken Rice) was very nice. The chicken and the sauce paired perfectly. Worth the try. But it's a little sweet I suppose, need to improve on that a little. We also ordered their Bihun Sup, it was very delicious. My mom said that it is very original as a Kedah Bihun Sup. Overall a nice experience. Maybe need to improve a little on the cleanliness of the restaurant.

I never expect the chicken is served like this with sweet and sour sauce because this is differ from the common malay style nasi ayam... Overall the taste of rice and sauce plain but the chicken is quite nice! Yong Tau Foo also not bad..the sauce is acceptable nice! For More Food Review, Follow Instagram : kvvk_food #假掰の美食家
