Restoran Nasi Kandar Line Clear

This is the first time I brought my family to have a taste of line clear nasi kandar. Looking at the reviews since , the food and the dishes was reported to have a good taste to many, but for us it was just a decent normal taste, quite a bit bland for me. I thought it will be super spicy and having a rich taste as reviewed by many but unfortunately it does not combine with many sauce on top of it. Many customers too stated the cost of a meal here has gone to be very pricey these days. For tourist and newcomers, if you just curious about the place it's okay to come here and have your first taste. But for me and my family the nasi kandar here has been written off from our favourite penang t.

Still good like the olden days, but kinda packed with tourist but I still came here for their good kari kepala ikan. The thick aromatic spices will lingers on ur fingers for days😂. Price wise still okay and acceptable. Expect a que but the service and turnover is quick too. I came here for their food and quick service nothing else. If u looking for cleanliness and family friendly eatery, this is certainly not the place.

Food at decent taste, bland for me. I thought it will be spicy and has a rich taste as it's combine with many sauce on top of it. They charged me for around 27-29 MYR just for chicken and sotong? too pricey. For tourist or newcomers, if you just curious about the place it's okay to come here. But I not recommend this place for visit, there's a lot of nasi kandar that serves better taste and price rather than this one 😉

The original nasi kandar and one of the oldest in Penang. The place is not very visible from the street outside. However, I highly recommend it. The nasi kandar is very rich, the spices are incredibly delicious, and there's a wide selection of side dishes. One of the must-visit places in Penang. The best

The nasi briyani and curry were extremely delicious. The telur ikan was also a tasty novelty. We got 3 giant head prawns that were sadly overcooked and chewy. Total price was RM67; a bit shocking but the prawns must have been the reason.

Touchdown in Penang—no time to waste! The first order of business? Dive straight into some authentic flavours and get our hands smelling like curry (and loving it). We headed to Nasi Kandar Line Clear, tucked away in a charming side alley, serving an array of aromatic dishes that beckon foodies from far and wide. For my plate, I went all out with lamb curry, squid eggs, a side of lady fingers, and fresh-cut cucumbers. This was my first-ever experience with Nasi Kandar Line Clear, and I have to admit, my expectations were sky-high. While that first bite didn’t exactly deliver the “life-changing” magic I’d hoped for (haha!), it quickly grew on me. The curry had a unique Penang twist—subtle yet spicier, with a velvety smooth texture that sets it apart from the grainier curries I’m used to in Kuala Lumpur. That smoothness, paired with its heat, might just be the signature charm that makes Penang’s nasi kandar so sought after. And let me tell you, the spices hit just right—I was sweating, but in the best way possible! Meanwhile, my wife opted for plain rice paired with fried chicken. The chicken was a winner—crispy on the outside, juicy and flavourful on the inside. A true comfort dish. Despite it being 9 PM, there was still a steady queue of eager diners lining up for their plates, which speaks volumes about the reputation of this spot. So, if you’re in Penang, this iconic nasi kandar joint deserves a spot on your foodie checklist. Give it a try—you might just discover the magic for yourself!

Try this at my first time going to Penang. The line here was long but you will not wait that long. Right in front of the entrance you can see the display of soup with fish head in the size of human head. They say it is one of the famous menu but I am too afraid to try. Just like othe nasi kandar, you will choose menu first, eat and buy last. For you who can only speak english, it is kinda difficult to communicate but they served well despite me feeling confused all the time. They have many chairs and tables. Tasted a drink with a type of lemon/orange idk and IT IS SO GREAT, refreshing and tasty, will recommend that one. Food is good, quite spicy, for me who is not a fan of curry I can still recommend you tp taste this. You will get quite big portion so I share the food with a friend, they kindly provide extra utensils for me

Nasi Kandar sedap (though not the best in town - a bit over rated there). My husband ordered Roti Canai and it was the best roti he ever tasted. The first time in his life dipping roti canai in curry coz he said he never tasted curry this nice. We went there a bit late in the night coz the journey from KL took a bit longer than expected. Reached there after 9pm so banyak lauk dah habis. But overall, memang best! 👍

Went in with high expectations due to the Anthony Bourdain visit (R.I.P), but was let down. To be brutally honest, this was my first Nasi Kandar, but it was just OK. Spice level on point; otherwise wasn't too impressed with chicken tenderness, curry consistency/flavor, or rice texture. My wife got the vegetable curry which was OK, pretty plain.

As a visitor to Malaysia, I haven't had Nasi Kandahar before. I visited with the family and was immediately taken by all the deliciousness that you can pile on top of your plate. I took advantage and visited for an early lunch before the crowd started to gather. I can definitely see how a repeat visit was necessary, as there were so many dishes I wanted to try. I love that Yu can get a small serving of lots of things too and share it with the family. As with all street food, hygiene is always going to be an issue. I think it's a matter of do at your own risk, but I can never go past a good local eat!

So I grew up eating nasi kandar and I have tried many places over the last decade or so. I was told by my Penang friends that Line Clear Nasi Kandar is the best of the best nasi kandar anyone could have in Penang or probably in Malaysia. While I was in Penang last month, I decided to give Line Clear a try. And yes, I had my hopes high that it would be the best that I have ever tried. My parents and I decided to not drive here but to walk as our hotel was just 10 minutes away. We almost missed it and mistook the mamak in front was Line Clear. Luckily I saw their sign board pointing inside. It look rather clean rather than dirty, as it was reported in the news Line Clear was a rather unhygienic eatery. I saw them cooking lot of fish head curry, tempting really but they don't serve them for lunch. So I went on to have their nasi briyani, fried chicken, cabbage and squid, with curry flooding my rice. Well, I would say, it looked good but really it didn't taste as great as I thought it would be. To my standards, it is like any mamak but not a good one. I have had better nasi kandar in KL and PJ and the nasi ganja in Ipoh is way lots better than this. I don't understand the hype, I may have gone at the wrong time but nonetheless, I did not enjoy my lunch.

So I came here after seeing it on Anthony Bourdain, that and the fact it was walking distance from my hotel. When I arrived around 10pm there weren't many people but more started streaming in after about half an hour - this is a 24 hour place so you can eat any time of the day! I got a fried chicken leg with biryani rice and an assortment of curries. I was lamenting that I didn't have a closer look and choose some more things to stack on my plate. Ordered an old favourite of teh tarik (pulled milk tea) and after my meal felt like something sweet. That's when I noticed the roti vendor further down - flagged over a staff and ordered a roti tissu (thin tissue like roti with condensed milk). It was delicious but not consistent in the thinness and crunch. Perhaps more butter was needed. Overall the meal came to a grand total of $13.3 ringgit. Pretty good value I'd say!

This place is in an alley. When I visited Malaysia, my friend told me to try Nasi Kandar, so I came here! I came of a weekday around 8PM. The place wasn't full, so they workers got to explain to me how things work. I think you basically pick a protein and then you can get a mix of different curries on top of you rice. I got the fried chicken and I added okra. The fried chicken had really good flavor! I was impressed. The mix of different curry sauces also blended together really well! You pay after you eat, so don't try to pay right when you get your food. I would definitely come back. It was a little on the pricey side. 16RM, maybe because I also added the fish egg cake sort of thing? Anyways, this was a good first Nasi Kandar experience.

When you are in Penang you have to eat nasi Kandar. It's so exciting! The best parts at the rainbows colors of curry. If you never know that curry comes in many many options, Nasi Kandar is the way to go. You will be in flavor overload. Keep in mind this is not simple food. This place isn't bad.. I've had better but they do have the varieties. I love fish curry. That's my Togo curry for my nasi Kandar. If you love curry and you are in Penang. Please try nasi Kandar. You will not be disappointed.

This mamak stall has operated its business for more than 3 decades.. Despite the cleanliness and rats running around, this infamous food stall is definitely a top choice when it comes to Nasi Kandar if you ever craving for the delicious original taste of Penang Nasi Kandar.

To eat the perfect Nasi Kandar, you just need to drive to Penang, and find for the only place that really gives you the only plate of Nasi Kandar that you will want; Line Clear. Line Clear may be a long lost slang in Malaysia, but its notion of providing a large plate of rice with a variety of different, assorted things on it has been a tradition for all foodies in Malaysia, or around the world for that matter. You can complement the rice with copious amounts of curry beef, or have it be doused with squid ink, a unique combination that will keeps you wanting more. Do not go there in the afternoon though; my afternoon experience in this sacred place is a huge no-no in comparison to the midnight escapades, where the crowd is lesser, and there are arguably more choices of food. It is also a 24/7 restaurant, a plus for its already growing status to be legendary.

Line clear is well one of the most famous nasi kandar places in penang! Penang is well known for its nasi kandar and for it to be best in the finest, that's saying something. The queue for the place can take awhile, takes about 15 to 20 minutes on average dinner time. It is practically a tiny alley which is set up to resemble a mamak but it is much smaller. There are platters of curry and rice. It comes with a standard chicken, your choice of curry and of course rice. You could also pick some other seafood like squid and such if that's more of your liking. Drinks are served to your table as they will come for the order. Make sure you grab some seats before you head on to the queue. Everything is pretty much self service except for the drinks. Parking can be a pain but there is a parking lot right across Line Clear so have a look our for that.
