Welcome to Mahakavi Restaurant, a delightful culinary gem nestled in the heart of Semenyih, Selangor. This vibrant eatery proudly serves a medley of rich and flavorful dishes that showcase traditional Malaysian cuisine, and it’s quickly becoming a local favorite for those seeking authenticity paired with warm hospitality.

As you step into Mahakavi, you are greeted by a cozy and welcoming atmosphere. The spacious setting is perfect for families, friends, or even a solo meal where you can take a moment to unwind. The gentle hum of 90’s songs plays in the background, creating an inviting ambiance that encourages patrons to linger over their meals.

One of the highlights of Mahakavi’s menu is their renowned Nasi Lemak Bungkus, which has been lovingly crafted to evoke memories of traditional Malaysian flavors. With perfectly cleaned anchovies and a delicious sambal that packs a spicy punch, this dish has received rave reviews from satisfied customers. Manjula Mundiandy shared how the sambal brought back nostalgic flavors, pairing delightfully with a cup of their Bru coffee, making for a perfect evening experience.

If you’re in the mood for something hearty, the Claypot Mutton is a must-try. At a price of just RM18, this savory delight can easily satisfy two hungry diners, featuring tender mutton cooked to perfection. Fans of the dish will love how it complements the dynamic flavors of the restaurant. However, be prepared for a bit of a wait during peak hours, as Stef noted, as the kitchen works to provide you with freshly prepared meals.

Vegetarian diners will also find solace in Mahakavi’s offerings. Shanu Moogan highlighted the Vegetarian Mee Curry as a star dish, praising its rich, aromatic base that marries beautifully with an assortment of vegetables and tofu, ensuring every bite is comforting and satisfying for both vegetarians and meat-lovers alike. You might also want to indulge in the classic Idayappam with sambar, a combination that provides an unforgettable taste experience.

Love the nasi lemak bungkus. Really tasted like old school nasi lemak and delicious sambal. The highlight is the clean anchovies, it was perfectly cleaned. Paired with bru coffee and their 90’s songs. Perfect evening. Please show some support guys!

Had the claypot mutton and it suited my tastebuds! For only rm18, it can feed 2 people. Only setback is that I ordered 2 dishes (maggi mutton and mutton rice), but it took almost 15 minutes-ish to get my food and I think (not too sure) that my two dishes were their only order. Not complaining, but wondering what the wait would be like if there were more orders in Q and if they can improve on waiting time. I will definitely come back to try more food at the claypot stall cos it was SO SO GOOD! The maggi was “al dante” and I wonder how they did that. The curry taste was indeed strong but it is meant to be a curry tasting dish so I find the taste to be on point. Mutton in the dishes had a nice ratio between meat and fat, and most importantly, very tender. Thank you for the good food, Zamindar stall (Indian Claypot Rice) which was located right at the end inside the shop.

Hi good evening . I'm not sure if you remember, but on 27th Sept 2025, I ordered food through the grab application for dinner. . I remember first you say food finish, then you told me you will cook fresh and send it to me when I said no other restaurant offering vege food nearby. You even went extra mile to change the pulicha kirai item to dhal as I requested. I just want to say I really really appreciate it and thank you so much for doing so and the food was so delicious and the Portion also it was a lot. if I come to that area I will definitely come to your shop. Thank you again. Ps: attached photo is the only 1 I took. Didn't include all the vege and tofu sambal which was offered.

I recently tried a bowl of vegetarian mee curry at Mahakavi, and it was an absolute delight! The curry had a rich, aromatic base that was both creamy and full of flavor without being overwhelming. this vegetarian mee curry was a flavorful with vegetables & tofu, comforting dish that can satisfy both vegetarian and non-vegetarian diners alike. Highly recommended. Tried Chapati & poori as well ,very soft and good to go with their sides. For drinks I like their mojito series quite refreshing!!! Mahakavi -Clean place, family - friendly spot!
