Sambal Shiok Laksa Bar
Good food, it has a western take o the Malaysian style.The staff were very friendly and the place has a cute layout, I would recommend this place.I personally loved the fried chicken, great taste and lovely home made peanut sauce.The laksa is decently flavoured and I like the spice levels.You should go here but do not treat it as a traditional Malay place.

The food is really good and the service was incredibly speedy - almost too speedy! Felt a bit rushed. The Laksas are delicious but quite expensive at £18 a bowl. More expensive than we expected at almost £45 a head for a Laksa and a couple of drinks. The penang assam lassa is very unique and definitely worth trying!!

Went there for lunch, and ordered the Special Laksa with Prawn and Chicken. Service was friendly and fast. They seated us even though we didn't have a reservation, but we had the table for an hour (which was more than enough).The chicken was a bit dry, and although the laksa was well seasoned, the chiken was bland, and eating it with the laksa didn't cover its dryness or blandness. All in all it was good, but for the price (£20, without service), I would expect great laksa ---not just good.Worth noting that most of the menu is gluten free, with plenty of vegetarian and vegan options.

We loved our meal here - we went for the fried chicken and Gado Gado salad for starters, which were both yum, and then had the special laksa (prawn and chicken) and chicken curry. Both were delicious and the rose milk was amazing! The cafe is really nice, with reasonable prices - was happy to see it was fully booked on a Tuesday night - always a good sign! The staff were also so lovely, we had a long chat with Yao the general manager and told him how much we enjoyed our meal - it was very interesting learning about how the laksa is prepared and all the time and effort that goes into it. I would recommend this place to anyone who likes Malaysian food - we’ll definitely be back to try the beef rendang next time!

Finally I’ve fulfilled my craving! Many places I went for curry laksa but it wasn’t the one I wanted *I know it’s not easy to get in London. Until I found Sambal Shiok in Goggle and IG. Honesty is expensive and I admitted I fell in love with the Signature Curry Laksa *HOT (Chicken & Prawn Special) from the first sips of the curry laksa I know my Sunday’s lunch was well spent (not disappointed after travelled far from Woodford via Underground) My taste buds telling me they used top grades of Asian ingredients, not just the taste also the smells of the spices aromatics. Good size of portion, marvellous spiciness level, generous proteins and I finished whole bowl included the curry laksa broth HAPPY in my tummy ;) And the fried chicken snack was delicious ; crispy outside with flavourful spices and juicy inside plus the peanut sauce was amazing to go with.Had a take away curry puffs snacks for my husband’s request and he loved it (will bring him after he recovers) Overall I’m satisfied with the bill because they are worth it. Last but not least today’s on duty team was great in their services and I can see they are providing the best qualities in their respective roles.Your warmest welcoming will not be forgotten! Will be back again xx

Fantastic little find. I went here on my own after a football game and the staff were so welcoming. I sat at the bar, which in some restaurants can mean sub- standard service, but here it was excellent! The food was delicious - they aren't joking when they say the hot chicken laksa is hot- it's really spicy, which I loved! Would absolutely go back. Thank you!

Good service. Love the noodle texture. Had the classic curry laksa with hot soup base, very tastey and hot but lack depth! Also tried the Assam laksa, soup base was full of umami and fishy. A bit pricey overall.

Best laksa I've ever had, just so incredibly fragrant. I also had the fried chicken, which was amazing but a bit much if you're a solo diner, so bring some friends to get the most out of your Sambal Shiok experience. The rose milk to me straight back to my grandmas place. Lunch time is a good time to go if you want to avoid crowds.
