Al Mahboob Rojak offers crispy prawn fritters, savoury cuttlefish, and signature Rojak Set, all served with a sweet-spicy peanut sauce. A must-try for authentic flavours.

I have been going to this place since they started at Prime Supermarket and then moved twice to the current location. It's been more than 10 years. The rojak has always been top-notch for me. The gravy of the rojak plays a vital role in making your rojak nice or not. The last time I went there was on Friday (May 16, 2025) around 5 PM. We managed to get a place right at the back. I have several feedbacks from this recent encounter.
1. The two back tables with "reserved" signs were the only tables for people who came with more than 4. Can you please provide more tables for 5-6 people near the front?
2. There was no air conditioning in the area where we sat; the air conditioning was placed at the front, so those people at the back tables couldn't feel it at all. We were sweating badly. As the place is often crowded, why couldn't you add another air conditioning unit to the back?
3. From Day 1, since you moved here up until now, the waiting queue for rojak is ridiculous. Has your boss not monitored the average waiting time? The queue for a rojak can be more than 30 minutes! Did you not buy more deep fryers or have more woks to fry the rojaks at one time? The waiting time makes it seem like there is only one wok in the kitchen! It's been YEARS! PLEASE DO SOMETHING!
4. My husband and I were in the queue telling the cashier I wanted one mee goreng and one kway teow (spicy). I repeated it 2-3 times, and my husband heard it. In fact, wherever I go, I never fail to request "spicy" for my mee goreng. But later, upon receiving it, it wasn't even spicy and not even nice to the standard. I went back to the cashier to ask. He said I did not request "spicy" earlier; if I had, they definitely would have taken note of it! I said I did, but no matter what, he still insisted I did not request it! Should I ask you to rewind the CCTV to prove it? I decided it was no point arguing.
5. In total, we spent over $100 for two full plates of rojak, one mee goreng, one kway teow, and five drinks. I was like? I know their prices have always been steep, but it never occurred to me that the rojak alone was over $80. The ridiculous part of buying rojak is they only tell you the price after they have fried and cut it. Why couldn't they inform you before that? This is what most people are wondering too.
I haven't been coming here for nearly 2 years because of these reasons above. The last two days, I brought my aunt and uncle from Australia as they wanted rojak last minute, and that was why I came back as it was nearer to us. After all this unpleasantness, maybe I should just go elsewhere next time. It's just not worth it! It just shows the boss is just greedy and has never made any improvements to their customer service regarding the queue, the air conditioning, the calculation of the rojak prices, and the staff taking orders.

No matter how good the food is, the service must match up. One of the staff was shouting at another customer, and the poor lady said, "First time, my goodness." The staff are not friendly. We ordered four pieces to try, and they told us we could only get one small bowl of sauce. So stingy. The price is also on the high side. I guess this will be my first and last visit.

Ordered 2 plates of rojak for $16.79 and was given 3 bowls of gravy. I requested an extra bowl but was denied, with the staff citing that they had already provided the maximum amount. I even offered to pay for it, but they refused and instead suggested I take two additional items. While the rojak itself was good, the service was disappointing. A simple request for extra gravy, even when willing to pay, shouldn't be such an issue. I will not be returning or recommending this place. There are still plenty of good rojak spots with better service available.

Indian Mamak food stalls have become very popular recently, with many new similar Indian eateries opening islandwide. They are especially upgrading to more franchise-like appearances, offering a clean and standardized modern meal experience.
Located in a commercial building with air-conditioning, this relatively new Indian Mamak eatery provides a wide variety of food selections and ample seating. You can pick your favorite Rojak items, send them to the counter, place all other food orders, collect a calling device, and pay upon food collection. However, for beverages, you need to order, pay, and collect them on the spot at the counter on the right side.
As for the food, I really enjoyed my Maggi Mee Goreng, which is fried instant noodles with mutton. It was very well stir-fried, not oily, and had a good wok hei. The flavour was good and not over-seasoned, with a simple balance and fragrance. I loved it.
For their popular Indian Rojak, I found it good but not fantastic. There were many Rojak selections, and they were clean and well-fried. Not everything was to my liking, but I particularly enjoyed the fried onion dough, which was delicious!
As for the rest of the Rojak items, they were pretty common and didn't seem specially fresh, or perhaps they had been left out for hours. Their chilli gravy was just okay, not outstanding. If you are a true Indian Rojak enthusiast, I must say the best Indian Rojak in Singapore are still the two stalls at West Coast Drive, located at Ayer Rajah Food Centre. Try them if you have the chance. However, I can't deny that this AI Mahboob Rojak is much cleaner and more hygienic.
Finally, their beverage, Ice Teh Tarik, was very common. There was no tea pulling (Teh Tarik) action at all, even though I mentioned it. Charging $3.30 is way too expensive and not worth it. Teh Tarik without the Tarik action is a shame.
Overall, $6.50 for fried instant noodles with a little mutton meat was delicious and worthy.
Then 4 items of Indian Rojak at $8.70 were fair, but could be better.
Ice Teh Tarik with Tarik action cost $3.30, which was not worth it.
Total cost $18.50. $$$$
Honestly, I do not recommend making a special visit unless you stay around that area.

Good if you eat in. But terrible and unscrupulous if you order takeaway. $8 for 7 pieces of red sotong. $12 for the paru (beef lung).

One of the few places that sells fresh and good quality Indian rojak. Nicely, we had a large plate of fritters, fried bee hoon, and soup kambing (meats only). The fritters were fresh, crispy, and yumz. The sauce could be less starchy and a little stronger and sweeter. On the whole, still good. Thanks.

If you enjoy Indian Rojak, it's yum yum yum. Super yum! The food is fresh, but the gravy is where the magic happens. I loved the prawn offerings, especially the crispy fritters (top left corner). They were super crispy, and their texture soaked up the gravy for an eruption of flavors in the mouth.
The mee goreng wasn't shabby either, but the serving portion was a little disappointing.

Super crispy Indian Rojak with a really tasty dipping sauce! The prawn fritters were my absolute favourite, along with the onion fritters. Presentation was good, everything was fried really well, and definitely worth coming back for.

Came here on Friday at 3 pm to avoid the crowd, but there was still a long wait for food, and the portions were smaller. The Rojak is confirmed amazing, and the sauce is spot on. The hype is real, but the service is slow.
