Yummy chicken worth trying
First time to try out the Hainanese Chicken with Gai Lan for lunch � truly excellent and will go back again for sure �
Mamalee is one the spots for Hainanese chicken in Vancouver. The chicken is tender, juicy, and served with fragrant rice and delicious sauces that bring everything together. The portions are generous.
When I was a student at UBC, I loved coming here because it was close to campus and an affordable place to grab a satisfying meal. It’s still a spot I enjoy coming back to whenever I’m craving Hainanese chicken.

Mamalee Malaysian Delight is a small, busy restaurant known for its authentic Malaysian cuisine, especially its Hainanese chicken rice. The chicken is often described as flavorful, tender, and juicy, served with fragrant yellow rice that has a noticeable ginger flavor. Many reviews highlight the dish as a favorite and a reason to visit. The restaurant also offers other dishes like curry beef and Malaysian noodles, though some find the noodles too salty and the curry beef just okay. The spicy curry sauce on the dishes is frequently praised for being amazing, adding a flavorful touch to the meals.
While the restaurant is generally appreciated for its tasty food, there are some issues noted. For instance, some customers were disappointed when soy sauce was poured all over the Hainanese chicken and rice, which is not traditional and made a customer with celiac unable to eat it. The consistency of quality has varied recently, with some dishes like the Hainanese chicken laksa not standing out as much as before. The roti is also enjoyed when fresh. Service is friendly, but payment options can be limited, accepting only Canadian bank cards or cash, which can be inconvenient for some.
Overall, Mamalee Malaysian Delight offers authentic flavors and a cozy atmosphere, making it a good spot for Malaysian food lovers despite occasional inconsistencies.
