Reviews Summary
Haji Pok Long ICT is celebrated for its incredibly fresh, crispy deep-fried seafood and a special chili sauce that tantalizes the taste buds. Diners also appreciate the fast and friendly service, as well as the picturesque sea view. However, some patrons note that the prices can be on the higher side for the portion sizes, and the ambiance could be improved to be more comfortable during busy periods.
"We were late to arrive at this place. Almost 7pm due to weekend traffic. So not many choice of the ICT at the counter.
We had Udang Goreng, Sotong Goreng and some kepok lekor and cucur. The squid and prawn are fresh. And they fried it just nice for you to enjoy.
Ample seating may be because the crowd has already left. We had the ABC since it is recommended from other reviewers and we agree to recommend as well."

"Sometimes you have to think of the customers more. When you have been swarmed by us then the premise itself should’ve been upgraded and improved. You may be glad of the ‘kching kching’ sound we brings but we also wanted to dine and spend in cozy atmosphere."
