Dinner on a business trip to the US.I went there with a colleague.It was delicious, but there was cilantro in almost everything. It may be impossible for people who are not good at it.I am full. Thank you for the meal.

Food was good, but you need to know what to order.The downside - restaurant charges 18.5% tips for group of 4 (or more). You can't go there with your family without paying quite extra.

We met up for dinner, I am glad we reserved a table because it was crowded on a Friday evening. We ordered appetizers. fried calamari and roti murtala with sauce. Flavorful, cooked just right. We then ordered our meal: pad se ew, pineapple rice, beef rendang, sizzling lamb, sauted kang kong, turmeric rice. The food came out quickly. We all ate too much but we still ordered dessert: mango with sticky rice, fried banana and fried ice cream with banana. All were tasty. Service was nice. My friends want to add it to our restaurant rotation. It was close to the flavors my husband had when he visited Thailand.

See this in my food. I was hoping they will bot charge me after this incident but they made new for me but charge wverything in full. I understand this is a miss but not acceptable.

A unique hidden gem in the South Bay Area that delivers delicious Indonesian/malaysian/thai/indian fusion food. Outside ambiance is deceiving as the inside is fairly large. Roti prada, nasi goreng, and papaya salad are all dishes that you cannot go wrong with.

Prices have increased, but the portions have gotten a lot smaller. I'm still giving them 4 stars for now, but...I just don't plan on visiting as much as I did in the past because of the price point.

I love Malaysian food and the huge menu they have here! So many options that it was so hard to choose what to order, but got the basil fried rice, roti prata, chicken satay, and rendang. All were so flavorful and very well done. Generous portion sizes as well, this was way more than enough food for two. Super friendly and attentive service.

(Overall: A) - Overall, the menu is full of exciting southeastern options where the flavors match in boldness and enthusiasm. The staff was quite friendly and knowledgeable, and I liked the open kitchen. Overall, great place in the bay area, would recommend. (Calamansi Juice: B) - Despite the lackluster presentation of this drink, this was a very soothing and healing drink that gives your palette a warm, pleasant hug. (Roti Prata: C) - Unlike the roti canai, which is beautifully textured with layers, this roti prata just feels dense with egg in the middle. I found the curry to go well with the roti as expected, but still prefer its counterpart. (Ong Choy with Shrimp Paste: A) - Shrimp paste is a non trivial ingredient to use, but they were able to successfully harness those shellfish flavors to help add some backbone to the vegetable. The garlic also pairs well. (Black Pepper Steak: B) - This dish was surprisingly sweet but the black bean works with the sweetness; the green beans and steak also pair well together, although the presentation is a bit muddled. (Hokkien Mee: B) - The noodles were tender and filling and has a very forward earthy soy flavor that works. The presentation is a bit sloppy but is otherwise good. -- Food: +1 Presentation: E Price: E Atmosphere: +1 Service: +1 Menu: +2 Overall: +5 A

Great food, the service was good. They cleaned up the table after we ate the appetizers for the main courseThe satay took 20 minutes even though it's in the appetizer section... I was surprised there was no warning about it. However it was really tasty!

I've been coming here for almost 20 years. I can't say I've tried all of the dishes, but those I have are almost always good. The hours can be a little limited, but I think they're successful enough to where they don't need or want to be open long hours.

Went in on a Friday evening and managed to find a table after 25 mins wait time. For appetizers, ordered the roti prata which came with the curry. The roti was crispy, soft paired well with the curry. It tasted so good that we reordered another plate of roti. The mango curry was tangy and served in mango halves. The chicken was tender and cooked to perfection. The pineapple fried rice also came in half a pineapple. It was little less on the seasoning / spice but overall it tasted.Cant wait to go again and try out other items on their menu after making a reservation.

Ambiance is good. The place is expensive and food isn't tha great. You'd expect more for the price.
