    Crispy rice
    Nicole K.

    The food here is sooo absurdly good. The beef rendang is a must try. It's a small bar with no liquor (just wine and beer) but worth visiting for the food alone

    Curry laksa

    It's so hard to find good Indonesian/Malaysian food so when I got the craving on our last NYC trip we made it over to Fishmarket II It was really hard to choose what to order because the 2 of us wanted to try so many dishes ---curry laksa: the waitress said this was a must order since they are known for it! Honestly never had a curry lasagna quite like this, so many tasty toppings and components, felt very homemade and yummy ---beef rendang: a little more spice (not hot spicy) forward than I'm used to Wish our trip were longer and we could have tried the char kway teow and nasi lemak too

    Loved the Malaysian offerings here. Came with a big group and they were very accommodating to us, service was excellent. Definitely will be coming back here for more of that laksa.

    I been wanting to visit this place for a while now. It's difficult to find a really good laksa place in the city and I was so excited to finally find one. I came first time during lunch hours but they were closed! The yelp hours need to be updated. I visited again during dinner time and they were open. It was pretty empty inside just another table dining. Staff were friendly and the food was served quickly. Ordered the curry laksa and the rendeng beef. I felt like the portion size was a little bit small. The curry laksa was not bad but didn't have any seafood, just tofu and what seemed like a meatball/fish cake. But flavor was not bad. The noodles were also not quite what I expected. It was like meifun noodles but I was expecting more thicker noodles. Overall: it was not bad but didn't quite meet my expectations. I wouldn't come again.

    Nasi Lemak

    Great food great service! Fried rice is super crispy, wings are crunchy as well. Nasi lemak was also really good

    Upon entering you walk into what seems to be an American bar but in actuality once you sit down you get a completely different menu than you would expect! Quiet but quick service, we went with the top 3 most popular dishes. Our favorite was the crispy rice and the potatoes in the curried chicken were delicious! The curry laksa was a new taste to us but also good.

    Mama's Curried Chicken, roti
    Deepika K.

    I can't say enough good things about this place! I came here because of the perfect 5 stars on Yelp and Mama did NOT disappoint!!!!!! I had made a reservation for 5 and a baby on Easter Sunday and was greeted by one of mamas sons and a lovely waitress who let us have a table in the back that was more quiet than the front area, they even offered to let us watch whatever we wanted on both tvs! We ordered family style off the menu and got the crispy rice, char kueh teow, beef redang, mamas chicken curry, lots of fresh roti, and the laksa. I cannot tell you what I liked best because it truly felt like every bite was better than the last. I was truly blown away by the flavours mama was cooking up in the back, and the fact that she came to check in on us too! If you're looking for authentic Malaysian, and some incredible service - this place is a MUST!

    One of the best curry laksa's and beef satay I've had in a long time. Everything was full of flavor and authentic. We got to meet the owner and most of the recipes are made by his mom. We had a incredible experience here. If you are around the area looking for homemade Malaysian food and drink it is definitely worth a try.

    Possibly the kindest owner in all of east village working with his mom to make quality, home style Malaysian/canto food. It's lovely. The style of the restaurant is a true mix of cultures which was fun to see. You think you're walking into an American bar, but the menu has delicious satay, dumplings, and curries. Only in NYC :) Got the curry laksa and the nasi. Both were awesome and plenty of food for us 2. If you're debating on going, just do it!!!

    a bowl of mussels and bread on a table
    Casey W.

    - everything was amazing from the throw back 90s alternative rock music to the absolutely delightful server (Heather), Alex the bartender is also great - the mussels were delicious and perfectly cooked, came with a side of little fried roll/bun/dough things that were a little sweet and went well with the sauce - we ordered two noodle dishes and both were really tasty - I've never been it their other location (fishmarket I) but I'll certainly be back to try the other items on their menu at this location - recommend: garlic wings

    So happy that I found another solid Malaysian food place in the city!! As someone who visited Singapore and KL often growing up, I have been on the hunt for Malaysian food when I moved to NYC! The curry laksa here definitely hit the spot!! Although the soup isn't as heavy on the shrimp flavors, its garlic-y and coconut-y aroma is highlight of this soup! As soon as staff brought it out, you could smell the onion and curry immediately! The thin rice noodles are my favorite and love how they are al dente and never got soggy. The laska also featured stuffed eggplant and stuffed pepper (kinda like the 煎酿三宝) which I loved!! I think its stuffed with pork/shrimp and goes so well with the curry. The dish also featured a good amount of tofu puffs, bean sprouts, and bean curd sheets. The beef rendang is typically my other go-to. The version here was a little different but still delicious! Instead of chunks of meat, their beef was more shredded/pulled. The rendang base featured kaffir lime leaves which offered a fresh contrasting flavor to the spices/curry (more than what typical lemongrass would do). The spicy chicken and green bean was pretty standard. The sting beans were crispy and chicken tender. The sauce was a little more generic like a stir fry but I did appreciate the sesame oil and chili oil. They do have rotating specials but didn't get a chance to try. The restaurant itself only had moderate amount of tables but they do have some bar seating. Our server was really nice but maybe a little too attentive. Overall loved the familiar but also new flavors and definitely see myself coming back!

    Curry laksa
    Sadia H.

    First visit here on a Sunday night. The place was completely empty. I ordered the curry laksa, my favorite soup, for $24.83. The portion size leaves a lot to be desired for that price. The soup is very salty & oily. And the spice level was too high for my taste. I didn't find the soup to be enjoyable at all. The chunks of eggplant are thin and overcooked rather than thick & juicy. There's supposed to be fish in here, but I couldn't make out what kind of fish because it was cut in thin strips that were slimy on one side & crispy on the other? I'm sorry to say I didn't enjoy this at all. The lady who took my order was friendly & nice, but the laksa was overpriced & not to my liking.

    Curry Laksa - very good

We found this to be just enough food for all of us. My favorite bite was definitely the satay. The chicken was incredibly tender, and the peanut sauce was delicious. Other members of my party also really liked the roti canai. It was good, but I think I've had better versions of the dish elsewhere. I found the nasi lemak to be very unique, and I liked the flavors in the sweet coconut rice. It felt a bit disjoint, but the textures worked well together. The papaya salad and the curry laksa were also decent, but not as memorable. Overall, it was a decent malaysian meal, but a bit on the pricey side.
