Ayam Penyet AP @NU Sentral — Restaurant in Kuala Lumpur

Absolutely deserves 5 stars! The location is super convenient — it’s on the ground floor of NU Sentral and just a short walk from KL Sentral, which makes it easily accessible whether you’re a local or a traveler transiting through.

The food was delicious and satisfying. I ordered their signature ayam penyet and it was crispy on the outside, juicy on the inside, and paired perfectly with the sambal — spicy, rich, and authentic. The portion was generous, and the side dishes like tempeh and tofu were well-seasoned too.

Service was fast and efficient despite the crowd. The staff were friendly and attentive, making sure the dining experience was smooth. The place is clean, well-maintained, and comfortable for a quick meal or even a casual hangout.
