Giving this place 5 stars. It's what you'd expect out of a typical Penang mamak eatery. I'm not going to make comparisons with the other 'players' but this restaurant would do just fine to meet your expectations. We visited Deens during a public holiday and arrived at exactly 1pm but the queue was pretty ok. 20 mins to get our meal. I heard that the queue can be notoriously long and seen many pictures on it but if you plan your time well you shouldn't experience much delays. Don't forget to try the Rose Syrup drink with loads of crushed ice, it was refreshing especially on a hot day. My choice was: Nasi Tomatoes + prawn masala+ fried chicken + sliced cucumber + enormous omelette = MYR14.50 with a side of food koma ( Picture attached) . Before someone slanders the price. You can have white rice + fried chicken + Vege of choice + omelette for merely MYR 7.50 as my mate ordered this. So you decide if you wanna go cheap or atas. Will definitely come back.

It is always a constant struggle of maintaining or reducing your weight in Penang especially when you can always bump into places with good food. My first ever time checking out Deen Maju. Totally empty partly due to puasa month also I guess. Previously I never even bother to attempt to buy because of the super long queue but guess what... zero queue! I did not plan for this anyway, so happen to pass by only. Verdict? The mix curry gravy is definitely good so the nasi kandar overall is very flavourful and smells nice. Fried chicken is not crispy at all so nothing really special. Why I mentioned this is because when I ask what is recommended here, I was told the fried chicken is best in town. Is this the best nasi kandar in Penang? A firm and resounding NO for me. But it is definitely good and worth checking out. Each nasi kandar stalls in Penang has its own unique taste and style so this is the beauty of it. :)

Deens Maju Nasi Kandar is a place to go for those who are craving for Indian curry rice as it is one of the best nasi kandar in Penang. Their curry mixture is fragrance and delicious. They are also famous for their ayam goreng aka fried chicken. I ordered rice with fried chicken, prawn, egg and cabbage. The prawn is a bit expensive, i think around rm8-rm15 depending on size and taste is just average. The fried chicken is their specialty, the chicken is soft from the inside and crispy from the outside with their own batter. Do take note that drumstick and chicken wing has better texture and taste as it contains more skin and the meat is more tender. If you take chicken breast, you might not fully enjoy their fried chicken as it is hard and dry. This place usually have long queue during peak hour but their service is very fast and efficient and seatings are always available.

Despite a long queue, the service is fast with an efficient system of split stations of 'dish assembler', 'cost counter' and payment. The dining area is also large and comfortable with them occupying the 2 units on the side. They even have their own parking area on the side road which cost money. However, the most important aspect, the food itself isn't too impressive which is strange for such a highly rated establishment. The beef although tender enough is surprisingly under-seasoned, thus lack the salt despite having a well pronounced taste while other dishes are on par. The rice is well flavoured, infused with just enough fat while the curry mixes seems good enough. Maybe I should be getting the fried chicken on my next visit. Price wise is on par with the standards around here. Taste factor: 5.5/10 Return factor: Earmarked to return for other dishes

Deen's Maju Nasi Kandar is recommended by a lot of people in social media I believe. I visited on a non-peak period, at around 8pm, where the traffic is much lesser. The abang were so efficient, I get to enjoy the nasi kandar within a few minutes, from starting the order. There wasn't any queue at the time. I order Sotong, Ayam Goreng, and Kubis, with kari campur and kari daging. The Ayam Goreng is good, the flavour, and tenderness, they're good. You can't eat the nasi kandar without it. For drinks I ordered a teh ais. In total it costs me RM18.65, which I think is quite reasonable, given that I ordered sotong. The dining environment is okay, spacious enough to accommodate hundreds of customers I guess. There are indoor and outdoor dining areas. Is it recommended? Yes, I would recommend to try, since it's deemed one of the best Nasi Kandar in Malaysia.

You have to come here! Deen Maju offers you good food with good price. Locals there prefer to go here compare to others due to price gap which is the lowest among other nasi kandar. Price range start from RM6.00 for fried chiken and vege and the price is goes up for others seafood and side dishes. Choose your dishes and curry sauce. Lot of choice available for you, however seafood is expensive and also fish head. Don't try other than fried chiken unless you can bear the cost. And i tell you, it not cheap. The food is good and fullfill my tastebud. The fried chiken and curry and vege. The curry here is lighter (medium in concentration) compare to other, feel like heavy. Of course you will have to face long que there, great thing needs great patience. For those who can't bear the cost of patience just bear the cost of price.
