With a limited menu, this unlikely little place deserves a 4 out of 5 for taste. The kitchen appeared clean as well. They had a limited menu with kitchen table, and we tried the lamb and chicken rendang with mee goreng noodles and roti canai respectively. The mango salad was tasty too! Unfortunately, the roti was somewhat disappointing, as it was already pre-made and reheated which made it greasy and not too appealing. The owners are from Ipoh, Malaysia (a couple of hours from Penang) and were very polite and willing to please. Apparently, they also make 'Bubur cha-cha,' a classic coconut milk dessert which contains sweet potatoes and taro. I might have to try it next time.

Looks like a table by the front entrance is reserved for owner admin purposes. Front area filled with good luck paraphilia to ward off evil spirits. My friend knew all the staff and proceeded right away to speak Malay. Let my friend do the ordering, I recognized a few of the dishes such as beef curry, chicken curry (both with roti), boneless chicken rice plate, chicken skewers, grilled sambal stingray, penang hokkien mee and a few other dishes (look at photos) I didn't recognise. There was one interesting dish Rojak, a mixed salad of chopped fruit & vegetables smothered in a pungent fermented shrimp sauce, sweet, tangy, spicy, a whole smorgasbord of flavors dancing on my tongue. Three words I've never used to describe Roti, theirs was crunchy, fluffy and moist, wonderfully dipped either in the beef or chicken curry. Chicken skewers were grilled well, meat remained moist with a nice grilled aftertaste, not necessary to dip into the accompanied curry sauce as the overall flavor stood on its own. The Sambal sting ray was a little disappointing, didn't match the memory of the one I had at the Singaporean hawker food court I had a few years ago. Overall flavor was lacking. Penang Hokkien Mee is the real deal, large plump shrimp w/ firm egg noodles in a somewhat spicy flavorful broth. We came on a Friday night, the restaurant was about 50% full, what a great cultural food experience which needs further support.

Decor isn't really anything to write home about, it's not why we came here. The roti canai was super delicious. Roti was flaky and buttery, the curry nicely spiced and waiting to be sopped up by the roti. The Indonesian fried rice was recommended by the staff and it didn't disappoint. Char Kwei Teow was nice, the wok hei was very apparent here as well as the Kang Kung Belacan (water spinach). The hainanese chicken while tasty was very bony (menu said it had bones). Desserts were a perfect way to end the meal

The restaurant and clean and staff were friendly. We ordered the following for 8 people to share: Penang Char Kway Teow - Malaysian Fresh fried noodle with beef and green onion, this was very flavorful and strong Wok flavour which I really like - 8/10 Singaporean Laksa noodle - coconut flavour spice soup base with noodles, veggies and tofu. Can't go wrong, very flavorful and not spicy - 8.5/10 2 orders of stay skewers - we ordered the beef and chicken, and the beef with lamb. These were delicious but each order only came with 6 skewers and these were 20$ each order. So although it tasted very good the high cost makes it feel not as worth. 7/10 2 orders of sweet Roti Canai - slightly sweet and very soft roti, this was one of my favorites, very tasty! 9/10 Mee Goring - We ordered this with chicken and this was good but a lot more saucier than what I expected from a mee goring dish. 6.5/10 Nasi Goring - Presentation was very nice and love how it came with an over easy egg. Tasty fried rice and easy to share. 7/10 It happened to be their 25th anniversary so we got make a draw from their prize pool and we got 10% off our entire bill which was super nice! In total with tax and tips we spent $188.44 for a party of 8 (this is after our 10% off discount) Overall I loved the family style Malaysian restaurant. Portion sizes were good and they had a large variety of food that's suitable for many people's tastes! I recommend coming with family or friends

We were quickly seated and the service was really attentive and appreciated. At around 6-630pm the restaurant began to quickly fill with couples and families. We had the chicken and shrimp Pad Thai and the Nasi Lemak Ayam Goring. We really enjoyed the fried chicken, coconut rice of the Nasi Lemak Ayam Goring, and the amount of spice in the sambal onion and anchovies. The noodles in the Pad Thai had a firm texture which we liked, but for me the sauce was a bit sweet. If coming to the restaurant from 6pm on a weekend, the parking lot is very busy and you could be circling for a parking spot and having to move around vehicles that are double parked for take-out orders.

Choice of little spice, medium spice and burn your tongue spicy. Luckily I chose medium spicy which was just about right. Ordered take out, got home, the hot noodles were starting to stick together, quickly separated using my chopsticks. The curry soup stock was placed in a separate round container, still very hot. The fish balls, tofu, chicken, bean sprouts were swimming in delicious hot spicy curry broth. When combined with the noodles I could have sworn I heard angels singing. Super delicious at a surprisingly reasonable price. Life is good.

The place was far from crowded when we showed up, and we were told to check out the menus and place our order at the front. We decided to share the House Special Sandwich ("Pork loin marinated with house special recipe, tomato, fried egg, cabbage and peanut butter") and the Malaysian Street Style sandwich ("4oz ground beef with a taste of M'sian spice, tomato, fried egg, lettuce and sweet & spicy sauce"). (I also got a milk tea to drink, and it was really good. Very rich but not too sweet.) The sandwiches were both excellent. They were packed with flavor and the various components all worked really well together. The Malaysian Street Style did flirt with being just a little too sweet, but it was balanced out with the other components. Everything was decently priced, too. The bill, with tip, came out to around 25 bucks, which is great considering the quantity and caliber of food we were given.
