Cozy small restaurant that has a long history of serving excellent food to its local community. My friends have eaten here since they were little kids eating here on a school trip and now they are still eating here in their 20s. Outside of their significance to the local community, the food is incredibly delicious. Each dish is seasoned well and has a smoky wok flavor. The customer service is also very good and we received our dishes fast.

Overall a solid 3 on food. 4 on service - super friendly and a 2.5 on aesthetic… it has seen its days and needs some updating. Very tight space, sticky table and could be cleaner.
Food wise, some solid items including the taro nest (surong burong), satay chicken, lady fingers with shrimp… and the morning glory. The Hainan chicken could be smoother, the satay beef less chewy… would skip on the sautéed tofu, stingray and pineapple fried rice.. the roti was also not good. But I can see their regulars enjoy their dinners here bc of the family friendly atmosphere.
If you’re in the area, a good spot for dinner.

Moderately qualified Singaporean here: roti canai frozen, curry laksa and fried noodles okay. Probably would not return unfortunately

Korean braised pork chop spaghetti is a delicacy that is highly recommended for both its portion, color, and flavor.

Took quite long despite only 3 tables being full at the time of dining in. Also terrible customer service. We ordered curry chicken, the waitress miswrote it, and the owner refused to replace it for the correct dish since they already made it. The tables were also unstable to eat on. Food was average

The waiter kept recommending Indian bread, saying it was very special and you should try it. I didn’t want to order it, but the waiter kept recommending it. The result is ordinary hand cakes... The most delicious among the four dishes is the Malaysian Sin Chew fried rice noodles. The other dishes are just average.

New Belacan Restaurant in Brooklyn serves traditional Malaysian food. I started off with Roti Canai as appetizer. I wish the size was bigger. Then with Hainanese Chicken which is my favorite dish whenever I dine here. I've been here a few times and I always find their food taste delicious. I went during 6pm for dinner and it wasn't packed. Food came out fast. It is clean inside the restaurant. They have wooden tables. It's a relaxed atmosphere suitable for quick meals or socializing. They definitely have raised up the price.

Wasn’t so impress with the dishes. Satay sauce is served cold. Alamak how la. Malaysians don’t eat sauce cold cold la… marmite pork had a little after taste (probably from baking soda velveting or something).
