Karen and Nick are phenomenal host! They know how to make you feel like you're their favorite customer. The food and drinks are delicious. Give this place a try.

I got the Nenas Tofu & Popiah (the vegetable rolls). Both were excellent, super delicious—and my order also came really fast. The prices are super reasonable, and it's great to see a place serving Malaysian food too!
The only suggestion I have is that the lunch menu has things marked as vegetarian / not, but the dinner section & rest of the menu does not. So it'd be great to get the vegetarian markings consistent through the menu on their website!
Oh and just fyi, the dishes do not come with rice - so I guess you need to buy that separately. Luckily I had leftover rice at home, but it would be cool if the menu made that more clear!
This is a failing restaurant. It's apparent from the food quality and the service. I ordered green tea, hot & sour soup, sabah sweet & sour chicken, and steamed rice. The green tea came in a plastic cup, and they didn't change it when I requested. The soup was cold, and when they heated it up, the taste was terrible. Perhaps cooked a few days before and being served unfresh. I can say the same thing about the chicken. And they weren't even sorry for these when pointed out.
DO NOT COME HERE, BETTER TI GO TO 7 ELEVEN!!
It has a very traditional Cantonese cuisine braided pork with preserved vegetable 梅菜扣肉 that I haven’t seen for years! Very grateful that I could have that again
I’ve been coming here since I was literally a baby, family owned and lovely people. Me and my family had so many birthdays here, quality Chinese food never have to worry about if it’s not unkept, any family that visits boston, we always come here first! Can’t recommend enough.
I love coming here after my time at mit. Thanks for the fun!
The best restaurant.
The food is so good here.
Food was cold and expensive
The (bland and greasy) food gave both of us stomach issues that lasted for days. Less importantly, we were also rushed out even though we were still eating and it was well before closing.

Worst food poisoning of my life
What a hidden gem! We have been here a few years and only tried the restaurant for the first time today. The food is authentic and delicious. We are already thinking about visiting tomorrow. The place is spacious and clean; more people should know about this place. We are thankful that we don't have to go all the way to Chinatown for authentic Chinese food!

Great authentic Malaysian food with a smile! Hosted a family dinner here and Evan / Karen helped us craft the perfect menu! We especially loved the lobster in salt and pepper, sting ray with sambal, kangkun belacan, taro pot and finished with buh buh cha cha. Thank you!
I got this for delivery. It may be the worst Mapo Tofu I've ever had. The only part that resembles the dish is that it has tofu. Someone put chicken stock, celery and onions with tofu and called it Mapo. There is zero of the funky bean flavor or mala spice. The only reason I ate it is because I won't waste food. I covered it with Szechuan chili oil and it was still barely palatable.

Delicious Nasi lemak. Look forward to trying other dishes.
