A great spot—I recommend the Hainanese chicken with oily rice, beef curry, creamy shrimp, and mango rice! The service is excellent, too. Just a heads-up: there is a 3% surcharge if you pay by credit card.

Such a gem! From the moment we walked in, everyone was so welcoming and genuinely kind. You can really tell they care about both the food and the people who come through their doors. Everything we ordered was absolutely delicious the pineapple fried rice was packed with flavor, the roti and curry were incredible, the chicken satay was perfectly grilled, and the fresh coconut was the perfect way to cool off. Every dish tasted fresh and was made with care. This is the type of place you leave already thinking about what you’re going to order the next time you come back. Between the amazing food, generous portions, and wonderful service, this is definitely a place I’ll be coming back to. If you’ve been thinking about trying it, let this be your sign you won’t be disappointed!

Came here for family dinner and had a great experience. Place is very family friendly and really nice staff. Really good Malaysian food. Got the fried rice with prawns and it was so good, prawns were big and fresh. Nice to have a spot like this on Ave U. Coming back for sure!

I came to this restaurant with my friends for the first time and we simply ordered three appetizers. We didn’t expect them to be so tasty and delicious. The staff were very friendly, especially our server, Tingting. Her service was excellent, and her sunny smile made the dining experience even more enjoyable. And the atmosphere was great. My friends and I will definitely come back next time! 😄

Shortened version of my much, much longer Yelp review- I went to this Malaysian place a couple of weeks ago with a large group. I have had Malaysian food from many different restaurants, and this was excellent across the board with a couple of definite highlights. The place was crowded and the staff was friendly, though a bit overwhelmed, so it took a while for the food to come out. This was also likely the reason why they forgot about one of our dishes (the Hainanese Chicken,) which was unfortunate, but we were full enough anyway. You can see below what we ordered and what my recommendations are- Beef Rendang- Excellent. Semi-dry style. Could use a tad more heat but very flavorful with tender beef Crispy Rice- Excellent. Excellent wok hei and texture. Plenty of scallion oil for flavor and a good amount of shrimp Kangkung Belachan- Very good. Nicely cooked water spinach and a good amount of funk. Trengganu Duck- Very good. Nice curry. Tender duck though there were bones. Plenty of veggies. Chow Zhou Tilapia Fish- Good. Reminded me of some Canto fish dishes but a bit sweeter. Kajang Beef Satay- Good/standard. Good beef. Standard satay Coconut Butter Chicken- Alright. A bit light in
