Serai serves delicious Malaysian fare with big portions in a lovely atmosphere. The restaurant, which now shares a location with Kapitan, offers a full bar and outdoor seating in the back, making it a hidden gem. Standout dishes include the Beef Rendang Nasi Lemak, Chicken Rice, and Roti Paratha. Regulars enjoy favorites such as Mango Chicken, 3 Chili Chicken, Roti Canai, and Chicken Satay. The kaya toast and roti canai are popular appetizers, with the roti canai noted for being fluffy and flaky, though some may find the curry a bit salty. While the service can be slow at times, recent reviews highlight that it can also be prompt and efficient, with friendly staff. The restaurant is a good choice for larger groups and families, and it is highly recommended for Malaysian, Thai, and Chinese dishes.
