A selection of pork dishes and dessert. Suggest that you go with a group of friends and family to try out each of the dishes. Price is on the higher side but once a while should be fine. Environment is great too.

Good selection of pork dishes. However prices are on the higher side. Give it a try if you does not mind paying higher prices.

A great atmosphere, including the pub next door. The suckling pig was outstanding as was the chocolate brownie! Highly recommended.

My only memorable experience with restaurants that serve good food and service was probably during my holidays. There are only a handful in the KL city area that can provide this, and El Cerdo is surely one of them. Whenever I visit KL, dining at El Cerdo is a MUST in my "to-do-list". This is my fifth visit here, and... More

Love the food. Its different. Love the people, very friendly, full with initiative and intelligent people working there. Not at all the 'robot' service.

I was amazed that everything here was about pork, from decor to menu, they stood firm to their standards. One thing that baffled me was the foreign workers here that were able to speak good English and gave an even better service. On an even brighter side, the food is exceptional and came and the right time too. For days... More

Proper pork places are hard to find nowadays, and one needs to do their homework to know the locations of these meat eateries. It's been a while since I devoured this meat and a night with the guys brought back great excitement to my food expedition. El Cerdo is 'the place' to have great and unforgettable meals. The plate breaking... More
