The food taste is above average. And the price is definitely on the low side as compared to west Malaysia (e.g KL or Penang). We ordered 4 dishes (dry butter prawn, fried squid, claypot tofu, and garlic eggplant) and it only cost RM71.50. Another good thing is, they actually listed all the price for each dishes in their menu. So you can order based on your budget. The only downside is the atmosphere, the traffic here is bad, and the noise from those vehicles are annoying. There is also foul smells coming from the drain besides the restaurant. I would recommend try to pick a table at the inner side of the restaurant to avoid this unpleasant experience. Overall, if you are searching for good food with cheap price, this is definitely a place to try.

I like this restaurant because:
1. One of the best customer service among the restaurants at town Center
2. Good customer service and not rude.
3. Must arrive before 6.30pm for dinner to avoid long queue.
3. Fresh seafood but limited choice.
However, price a bit high which similar to the rest near fresh market area.

If not for the location of this restaurant I will give it 5 star but due to the pollution we are inhaling from the car 🚗 fumes while dining it’s not fun , it’s congested area . This time we just ordered from the tank , fresh prawn and clams , noodle for 2 person .. total bill was rm47 , the cheapest of all dinner I had at Semporna. Service is good 👍🏻 taste wise I like the prawn 🦐
Nice Foods, reasonable price and good customer services

In terms of taste and price, Then Wang Restaurant wins! You really must give this restaurant a try, you won't regret it. The prices are clearly stated and the lovely staff will patiently recommend you their best dishes. Highly recommended.
Friend and me tried Then Wang on day 2 with self purchased seafood. We ordered the salted eggs for crab,butter lobster and salted pepper for pipi prawn. The taste was exceptional awesome! Whichever way they cook, they managed to keep the freshness taste of the seafood. And no doubt we were back on day 3 again! Ordered scallop and salted egg (please do not miss salted egg dish!) squid. Also recommended friends over and they love it! Definitely have blended mango with your meal, you won't regret it! We actually went another famous restaurant at the seaside on day one,but personally we prefer this place as the taste is much more better. Price is also reasonable, will visit again if back to Semporna!!!
6 out of 5!
Salt & pepper mantis prawn is a must!
Salted egg crab taste good, but meat was shrinked down abit.
Sabah vege (sayur manis) is very good.
Price is the cheapest compared to restaurants among that area.

I went to this restaurant four nights in a row! That butter sauce, oh my. You pay for seafood by weight. I was opting for ~300g for the prawns and ~500g for molluscs. There's fresh and frozen pricing. I think it was 150RM for fresh prawns and 100RM for frozen. Very friendly staff one in particular helped me select options as I'm a newbie to ordering by weight. Veggies were great as well. That blended lime ice drink was delicious!
The price here is a bit pricey compared to some of the other restaurants. Food was OK thanks to the fresh seafood. It's good to see that they use proper salted egg for the salted egg squid - can see the salted egg chunks. However this fried dish was a bit soggy.
Tip: if you are selecting your seafood from the water tank inside the restaurant, always ask and check the price first. If agreeable then you order. Also, please remember to check your bill prior to paying.
