Village VoiceApril 14, 2015Head to this Malaysian restaurant in Elmhurst for two kinds of laksa, curry laksa and assam laksa, both fragrant noodle soups radiating with chiles and perfumed with fermented sardines and anchovies.Upvoted Feb 11
NoviSeptember 21, 2016Ohh the place is not classy for a date so you might as well order for to go. Sambal squid is delicious and the fish in ginger scallion! The haianese chicken is like a steamed chicken not that special
Jojo TizzlesMay 1, 2014The best Malay food in all of NYC. Wish they could expand. - salted fish fried rice, kang Kung w/belacan, hainanese chicken, salted fish fried rice, sauté bean sprouts my faves.- This place is cash only! I always order their hainanese chicken, roasted chicken, beef chow fun with egg & gravy, Roti canai & Hong Kong noodles. You could call ahead for pick up :)
LorenApril 20, 2015Wow! A little tricky for a vegetarian, but the popiah roll and stuffed tofu were great apps, and loved the Buddhist delight dish. Unique dishes and a great deal.
i have dreams about the singapore kari laksa - fish cakes, peanut pickles and silver thread noodles are also favorites
DNovember 21, 2015Roti canai (not fresh made its from the frozen pkg), 1/4 hainese chicken, Singapore Kari noodles and Captain noodles
- this is the mecca of malaysian food. roti canai, kari laksa, butter shrimp, beef rendang = a happy camper. cash only.
Neenu JacobSeptember 21, 2013What can I say... That none of my friends have been here is a shame. All the predictable delights of Malaysia. The roti/ channa and the beef curry deserves special mention.Welcome hop out of manhattan
Lori LuoAugust 10, 2014The Kari Laksa is saturated by coconut milk, and skews too sweet instead of salty or spicy. Opt instead for the sizzling bean curd, which pairs well with the chicken-flavored rice.
Real Cheap EatsNovember 30, 2011Try the assam laksa ($5,95), "a tart, pungent, spicy broth spiked with tamarind, dried shrimp paste and chilies, then filled with thick glass noodles, chunks of fish, pineapple, cucumber and onion." Read more
Zayed KhanJanuary 28, 2017They seem to have a different take on roti canai than most other Malaysian eateries here. Not so much airy and flaky, more like a straight up thin paratha. Delicious nonetheless.- also BYOB. saw two guys with a straight up handle of remy martin.
Doris HuAugust 19, 2018Get the laksa and the coffee! So many dishes that I want to try. Pass on the hainanese chicken
Talisa ChangJanuary 16, 2012Double coconut goodness: kari laksa and a side of coconut rice to go with your leftover broth tomorrow.
Greg Wong 🎯June 8, 2013Great Malaysian food. Worth the trek out of Manhattan. Get the fried fish cakes and iced coffee.
Chris GampatMay 30, 2021Roti canai = <3. The fish head is a bit intense. But the seafood basket is everything.- Kari Laksa is my go to! Their Hainan chicken and curry chicken is great too!
GourmetLiveApril 1, 2011“If I picked one dish here it’s be the butter prawns – shrimp basically flavored with curry leaves and served with a buttery coating,” says Chef Michael Ginor of this Malaysian eatery.
Diane ChangJanuary 16, 2012Agree. Singapore Kari laksa, Assam laksa, fish cakes all good. Looking forward to coming back to try other dishes!- Simran JaisingJanuary 27, 2013kari laska. top in nyc. right consistency, depth of coconut, fishiness, spice, and ratio to noodles.
EileenJanuary 14, 2018Get the Singapore kari laksa, roti canai, and sizzling tofu. The hainanese chicken was only average
Emily WilsonAugust 27, 2016Try a whole bunch of stuff, but make sure to get the chicken laksa and the hainanese chicken rice.
wok seared silver thread noodle, achar salad, singapore curry laksa
Fresh SsungMay 24, 2014KARI LAKSA IS RED COLOR COCONUT TASTE NOODLE. THIS IS NOT SPICY TO ME. VERY MILD, A LITTLE BIT OILY.
Andriyanto SuprayitnoMay 14, 2012Its good food and If you like spicier you definetely have to tell them !!
Nikki SoonNovember 22, 2014Curry Noodles and Chicken Rice are not bad. However, their roti canai is not handmade but frozen.
Christine FanAugust 18, 2011Known for their Singapore Kari Laksa and Hainanese Chicken with "Oily" Rice.
try the curry fish ball noodles, a perfect meal (warning, it is fairly spicy)
The Assam Laksa is an assertively flavored, magnificently sour masterpiece
