Tldr: Overall, amazing food with good service, unfortunately paired with a sub par dining environment. Still recommended though for seafood lovers!
Raja Ikan Bakar, one of the few places that I know I can find a delicacy named Udang Ketak. It's a lobster-like shellfish with sweet, bouncy and juicy meat, the perfect combination between prawn and lobster.
I've also ordered a fish, squid and of course the Udang Ketak. The food was absolutely fresh and delicious, no condiments needed but their sambal and lime definitely enhances the flavour. The squid with Thai chilli was also wildly delicious, the squid is filled with the egg and it's the perfect combinations of texture and flavour. The outside being bouncy and sweet while the eggs being soft, smooth and savoury. Had an absolute blast eating here.
As for their service it was alright, the food was served in a timely manner (~15min). Do remember to ask for forks and spoon as they will not be given to you. The locals here eat with their hands. Continuing with their environment, there isn't much to speak of as it's just an open area with a roof on top, it was just adequate enough for me to dine in to say the least.

We were staying at Tok Aman Bali Resort and this place was recommended by the resort staff when we asked where to get good ikan bakar (grilled fish) restaurant. The place seemed like a popular restaurant among locals. We came on the eve of public holiday, so it was crowded but we could get a table within first 5 minutes of arriving there. But, from the moment we got the table to the moment we got the food, the entire process took 90 minutes.
Was the food worth the wait? I'd say no, not really. Was the food really good? I'd say just okay. Was the seafood fresh? I dont think so. Was the price cheap? Not really. We ordered grilled mirror fish (ikan cermin) as recommended by the guy behind the counter, grilled medium sized squid, 2 medium sized crayfish, 2 rice, 2 drinks, some ulam salad and it cost us RM140.
Whole experience? Just so-so. I hope they would improve their serving system as well as the hygiene of the place. I can only give this restaurant 2.5 stars.

1st time here and was not seeing the usual tilapia or as such (that we see in Klang Valley). The fishes are familiar to locals. We trusted them to choose and cook. Ended up with the best that non locals can ever taste. Wd certainly come again.

This road side stall is legit fishy. If you have no choice but to dine here, you gotta ask for their selling price. It’s not stated anywhere and there’s no menu.
Not only that, the price that you’ve asked for doesn’t include the grilling price and the rempah as well. Rempah is rm30/1kg seafood. The rice and the sambal is rm3.
Spent RM 71 for 300g fish (grill with rempah) + 500g sotong (grill biasa) + 3 nasi. I wonder how to do this calculation as well.
Overall I think it’s over priced and what really didn’t satisfy is that they don’t state the price upfront. So beware when you place order unless you super rich! 😏

Btw..this store only provided u with "bakar" menu...
5 star i gave becouse of the fresh n tasty seafood that ive consume here...trust me..they bakar it at the "tungku tanah" with batu arang..everthing is feel so aromatic n tasty...for those who look it just like a normal menu...try it yourself n i hope u guys will agreed n support my comment to by telling that what i comment todays is right..selamat mencuba...
Quite slow when they're filled with customer but their fishes are all fresh as people claimed. If you planned to eat till your heart content, don't attempt eating here on holidays! Any holidays will sned this place packed!
Looking at reviews was well received but the food was very mediocre especially for price. 4 people resting expect 170. And the cendol durian from the stall next to it was totally hopeless. Definitely don't take that.
