The Mermaid Cafe Ikan Bakar

Best ikan bakar. price is reasonable. service is excellent. good photos too.

One of the best ikan bakar! her personal is very friendly ah, yet 1 more things, her sambale source is great!

Wow, visit the basic on reviews....the eating is not disappointed u plus the price is very affordable.

Came here for my birthday dinner, was not disappointed with my first try! Food was really delicious, sambal was awesome! One thing about ikan bakar is that if the fish is not fresh, no matter how nice the sambal is, you wouldn't be able to enjoy the food. But fish was splendidly fresh! No worries at all. Only to improve on the waiting time.. Although the time waiting for our meal was kinda long, but it was worth the wait! Maybe before coming here, you should call up and order your food first before coming, that way you don't have to wait for so long. Staffs was very friendly, and they even surprised me with a birthday cake! Was super touched! Made my day! Thank you! Will return for sure!

We come to Penang frequently but this was the first time we have been to The Mermaid Cafe. Wish we had known about it on previous trips not only because it is close to the hotel where we always stay but because it was such a wonderful experience. The owners have done a really great job of converting two small terrace shop houses into a modern comfortable space over two floors which highlights its heritage aspects but also makes it something new and bold. But most importantly the food was very good. Tasty and well presented. The service staff and owner were friendly and efficient. This is a new style for Penang and we highly recommend you check it out. We wish the owners luck in a very competitive environment and in these tricky economic times.
