Sam Chai Seafood Cafe — Restaurant in Sarawak

As a local cyclist looking for a decent source of nutrition in the afternoon, this would be my go to, i usually spend less than RM8 for a simple meal that lasts me the rest of the afternoon

I do want to point out that theres an issue in how secretly disabled customers are treated, this often affects those with social anxiety and reveals the unawareness to hidden disorders. this is also how any customer is treated overall

I suffer from both APD(auditory processing disorder, basically dyslexia for hearing) and mild social anxiety, I often misinterpret the said price and end up paying less than what was told which I couldnt interpret in the first place, leading to the cashier repeating the price with an unfriendly look. this always makes me feel bad, decreasing my motivation just because of the reaction to my mistake

what I wish is for a more friendly reaction to anyone who accidentally pays less than what they were told, "maaf, saya kata RM7.50" with a smile would be nice for anyone, this habit would also cause a reverse effect to those who intentionally try to pay less.

But otherwise, the rest of the service is...

We had an amazing dining experience at Sam Chai Seafood Sematan! The food was served in good portions, making it perfect for sharing with family and friends. Every dish was fresh, flavorful, and well-prepared.

What I loved most was that the meal was truly worth the money. The quality of the seafood and the generous servings made it a great value, especially compared to other seafood restaurants.

To top it off, the nice location added to the experience. Situated near the Sematan Waterfront, the restaurant offers a relaxing atmosphere with a beautiful view, making it a great place to enjoy a meal.

If you’re in Sematan and craving delicious seafood, Sam Chai Seafood is definitely worth a visit! Highly...

Good: What I like about the Restoran is the looks of it. Not a fancy one that mostly we have today but more to ordinary old look seafood restaurant. Butter prawn was good. Bad: Food was average. Service was below satisfactory as they forgot about our vegetables. Only cooked it after we asked for it. We also asked for some ice cubes for our can drinks and only given to us after several times asking about it. Price was abit expensive for a group of 4pax. Rm106 including butter prawn (Small), midin (small), Lala soup (small), belacan and Kampung fried rice with 2 extra white rice, 5 can drinks (non alcoholic) and hot teh tarik. Sematan itself was great but will try other place for seafood next...
