Welcome to the culinary gem known as Anson Riverside Lounge Restaurant, nestled along the serene banks of Tepi Sungai in Teluk Intan, Perak. This vibrant eatery is a delightful pause for both locals and travelers alike, inviting you to indulge in a rustic yet warm atmosphere infused with the spirit of Malaysian hospitality.
Patrons often rave about the restaurant's dedication to delivering hearty dishes that brim with flavor and love. One satisfied diner, Ansonn Cheah, highlights the restaurant's busy nature, attributing a well-cooked meal to the dedicated kitchen team, which crafts every dish with care, despite delays. This commitment shines through, ensuring that every bite leaves you satisfied yet light, devoid of that heavy feeling often left by lesser meals.
Among the menu’s highlights is the much-acclaimed shark curry, a specialty noted for its freshness and exquisite taste. The catfish clay pot captures the essence of beautifully seasoned dishes, recommended by JL Dixon, who emphasizes its must-try status. The food here doesn’t just satiate hunger; it tells a story of culture, tradition, and passion through each well-crafted dish.
As you navigate the menu, prepare to be tempted by the live freshwater prawns and crabs, expertly prepared to bring out their natural flavors. Dishes like the salt-baked crabs and blanched freshwater prawns have been praised for their delectable taste and reasonable pricing, making every meal here a notable bargain. YC Khong perfectly articulates this with a glowing review of both flavor and service, highlighting the cool breeziness that accompanies a riverside dining experience.
Yet, even on a first visit—which Maria Wong embarked upon—there's room for a few small hiccups, showcasing the restaurant's genuine care as staff readily recommend alternatives when a dish isn’t available. Whether it's the tender tones of crab, the charm of mantis prawns, or the rich essence conveyed through every ration, the restaurant strives for a memorable experience without straining the wallet.
In closing, Anson Riverside Lounge Restaurant is not just a place to eat. It is a culinary adventure that evokes a sense of community, love for food, and a haven for those in search of satisfying, authentic Malaysian cuisine. So whether you’re a local or just passing through, make sure to set aside time for a visit—you might just find yourself planning that two-hour drive back again!

Very busy restaurant, small kitchen team so food took some time, but the food is full of love. After eating you feel full but not heavy or bloated. Pricing also very good

On my way back from P.Pangkor to KL, we stopped by at this restaurant for a late lunch. It was the best Chinese food I've ever had , even beats the restaurant in KL taste wise . I would definitely drive 2 hours all the way from KL just to eat here again.

1st time here, open concept restaurant with special air conditions room if available (2 tables) only Friendly staff that recommended what was available, how ever today the Big Head Prawn was not in even size and there was 3-4 pc that the meat was not fresh. We asked to steam the prawn and overall the taste was good. The carb was really small in size, but the meat was firm and tender that prove its fresh. The Mantis prawn was medium size and the soya base taste was good. Overall the price was reasonable and taste is ok. Crab salt baked 3 pcs RM35 Steam Prawn RM30 Dry chili mantis prawn RM60 2 whole coconuts RM10
