David GilfordApril 20, 2010Malaysian staples Roti Canai and Nasi Lemak were delicious. And intense ginger candy comes with the check.
Ori ZoharMarch 6, 2012Had high expectations, left disappointed. Roti canai was good, soft shell crab - the sauce was too sweet and overwhelmed, mango sweet rice dessert was too sweet, rice was dry and mango was under ripe.
Try the beef rendang with coconut rice! A malaysian iced coffee doesn't hurt either :)
Brendan LJanuary 6, 2011Food is fairly good. But man, what a rip off. $7 for Roti Canai, damn! And potions are soo small. Staff were great, but the place is over priced. Try Nyonya in Chinatown, so much better and authentic.
Daniel GraysonJune 12, 2018Expensive. Not particularly interesting. Confused menu. I’d suggest passing.
Fiona FongApril 24, 2016WORST customer service & attitude ever! Refused to deliver my order due to their mistake, and instead of apologizing they were ridiculously rude, said they are not responsible and don't know anything.
Selin CebeciJune 11, 2013It's an eat and go place; not a place to sit and chat. Service was so annoying , they basically pushed us out of the door.. Highly not recommended
Emma LeedsNovember 2, 2013Rudest reception I have ever experienced. If I wasn't incredibly hungry I would have left.
Mark WalterJanuary 22, 2012Food was good, but the wait staff was annoying. They all had an attitude and made sarcastic jokes at the customer's expense.
Patrick ButlerMay 31, 2013Disappointed. Over priced for what you get. The chicken in my $18 chicken pad thai was rubbery and made me nervous. The atmosphere is pleasant.
Claudia FilthNovember 17, 2015Not sure why this place has such a high rating. The food, service and ambience were all below average.
Don't expect some natural, soothing beverage if you order the ginger tea. It's basically tangy sugar water.
