Heard alot about this place and only manage to came by visit once when half drunk 2-3 years ago and still remember clearly it does taste good. Not till recently with my new job and I am base at Jalan Alor and visited this place once so called famous Ngau Kee Beef Noodles, to me now is no longer a great one.
It used to have a huge crowd for it and I reach around 9pm and there were only a few tables.
Style of setting up still the same and now the difference is only foreigners is managing it now while the owner is at the side chit chatting with friends.
Their signature is their home made chili sauce that is mild spicy yet fragrant with some herb taste along with sourish end.
I ordered their signature which is Dry mix Beef Noodle, top with mince meat and a side bowl of mix spare parts at RM 9
Noodle is alright as pretty much the same with wan tan mee noodles.
Then went back another round for their soup base and surely to say that their quality had dropped so much, where the soup base is no longer pungent in taste and blend where I believe there are better ones out there.

Agreed with your review. I went there earlier today (8 pm, 9 July 2017) , the lack of crowds should have been a warning to me.
The food served was a disappointment, only a shadow of the taste in the past. Even the chilly sauce in the claypot was watered down, and there were ants crawling all over the rim.
