Editor’s Note

Last updated 29 May 2026

Our take: Five Star Kampung Chicken Rice & Kitchen offers a solid option for chicken rice, particularly their kampung chicken which receives consistent praise for its taste and texture.

The $7.20 individual serving of chicken rice is a good benchmark for their pricing.

Beyond the signature, we note positive mentions for their Prawn Paste Chicken and seasonal dishes like the Blasting Onion Sotong and HK Kailan with Braised Baby Abalone, which are often highlighted for their quality and flavour.

Service is frequently described as attentive and friendly, contributing to a pleasant dining experience.

However, we've seen feedback indicating that the multi-person sets, such as the 2-pax chicken set, can feel overpriced for the portion size.

There are also reports of slow dish delivery and cold rice when dining in, which can detract from the meal.

We'd recommend focusing on individual chicken rice orders or their well-received ala carte dishes.

Best for a casual meal, especially on weekday nights when there's no queue.

The roasted chicken and the rice is very nice! The salted egg pork is a must order too. the sambal sotong not nice. no queue on a weekday night. food was delivered fast to the table.

★★★★Nico Chia· 4 months ago

The 2 pax chicken set feels like it’s just buying a normal chicken rice and adding meat. Way too overpriced and waiting interval time for each dish served is bad. First came the broccoli 10 mins later…
