Ordered these via GrabFood: Cajun chicken with fries Fish and chips Both the chicken and fish and chips had a funny taste. Hope to visit the restaurant to try the food again, as I always like the cajun chicken from Botak Jones.

Ordered the regular Cajun chicken set and the portion was small, with lots of fries given. The food is nice, but the portion doesn't justify the price of $9.

Decided to try out after reading good reviews. Sadly, nothing was fantastic, and the pricing doesn't justify the quality of the food. The salad lacked taste, the fish was too dry, the burger too oily, and the ribeye undercooked. Most coffee shop Western food tastes better than this. Will not return again.

We all know Botak's Cajun Chicken is unbeatable, however, during my recent visit, the chicken tasted very dry and not as juicy as before. The fries, while tasty, weren't hot. Quite a letdown as I've been craving it for close to a decade! There is still hope as the taste is still there—just some slight tweaks and the stall will be back to legendary status! The portion is still huge, so that's great!

The Original Botak Jones has earned a strong reputation in Singapore for offering hearty American-style food with a local twist. Many fans love the large portions, especially the Botak Burger, Cajun Chicken, and Fish & Chips, which are made with fresh ingredients and have generous, flavorful portions. The Cajun fries are a popular side, adding a unique spice that complements the main dishes well. At its peak, Botak Jones operated over ten outlets across Singapore, but in 2013, financial difficulties led to the closure of many of its branches. After a brief hiatus, Botak revived his brand in 2021 with “The Original Botak Jones,” focusing on quality ingredients and customer experience to win back old fans and attract new ones. BLACK PEPPER CHICKEN REG $9.00 LG $15 The Black Pepper Chicken is often served with sides like coleslaw and fries, offering a balanced meal with a mix of spicy, savory, and refreshing elements. This dish is a great option for anyone who enjoys robust flavors and appreciates American-style comfort food with a Singaporean twist. Recommend 7/10 Talk about how black pepper itself has a deep history. The Rise of Black Pepper in Southeast Asia Black pepper, often referred to as the "King of Spices," has a rich history spanning thousands of years. Originally cultivated in India, pepper was a prized commodity in ancient times, traded widely by explorers, traders, and merchants. The spice was so valuable that it was even used as currency and called “black gold.” When black pepper made its way to Southeast Asia through the spice trade, it quickly became a staple in local cuisines, finding its way into dishes across Singapore, Malaysia, and beyond. One of the most popular creations from this fusion of local flavors with black pepper is Singapore's iconic "Black Pepper Crab" and, later, black pepper chicken. In Singapore, black pepper chicken became a staple dish. Restaurateurs, chefs, and street hawkers each put their unique spin on the dish, making it more flavorful, bold, and aromatic with the perfect blend of spices. The dish became a favorite among locals and tourists alike, celebrated for its fiery heat and savory, peppery flavor that pairs beautifully with chicken. As Southeast Asian cuisines spread globally, black pepper chicken became one of the region's standout dishes. Today, it's a comfort food enjoyed by people from all walks of life and a shining example of how a single spice can inspire a culinary sensation. This story of black pepper and black pepper chicken is a testament to how a humble ingredient can bring flavor, warmth, and even a bit of history to our plates, symbolizing the rich cultural connections that make global cuisine so vibrant.

One of the most random places to have a restaurant! But hey, as long as the food is good! And it was! Ordered their Cajun Chicken and it was an explosive mix of flavours. The portions were perfect, not too little, not too much.

$5.50 for a chicken chop with fries on weekdays lunch is . Ordered at a kiosk. Self-collect when the buzzer beeps. Zero customer service. Contactless.

A hidden restaurant in the industrial area serves tasty Western food at reasonable prices, without a service charge. The cashier was polite and attentive, asking questions to ensure my order was correct. The downside was the fries, which were too dry and hard to chew. Please plan ahead if you're coming during lunch, as the restaurant is crowded and the queue is long - I had to wait 25 minutes for my food.

If you're craving big portions of Western food, this is the place. Loved the grilled salmon, nicely charred on the outside, moist and flaky inside. The Double Botak Burger was satisfying with thick, juicy patties. Also tried the Whoopass Cheese Fries loaded with beef chili and cheese – definitely shiok and great for sharing. And the Chicken Gumbo? So comforting and full of flavour. Bonus points for easy kiosk ordering and a wide choice of sides.
