My favorite authentic Malaysian spot. I have been coming since I was little, and still have not found better curry chicken noodle soup like theirs. Their Hainan chicken is also the best I have ever had! So tender and juicy. They also make everything fresh so you can ask for less salt and oil if you want a healthier meal out. The aunties that serve here are very nice and I never feel rushed.

Some of my favorites: roti chanai, chicken sate sticks, chicken curry noodle soup (sub ho fun), the house flat noodles, the taro (yam) buddha delight bowl and the 4 vegetable in garlic sauce (asparagus, eggplant, green bean, okra), Hainan chicken

Good food. Been coming for 10+ years. Prices are super affordable. Dishes would be $14+ in chinatown manahattan and $16 in more high end spots.
There is high 18% tip as others have noted but the Curries and noodle soups are great value.

Beware! waitress secrectly add 18% tip into the bill or stand right beside you when you are paying to make sure that you pay 18% tip.
Service was poor, unkind, greedy and annoying to cheaply acting like a rude beggar.

the restaurant is like a garbage pit inside with poor service to get a good tip!

I will not recommend this place!

Two of us first time visit. We came here for lunch, ordered a lot including takeouts for dinner. I signed tips for $10 but the lady (looks like the business owner) forced us to pay 18% which is 13.50. I followed. Food was okey but we were shocked by this force tip policy.

Be aware of the short hair (boy cut) lady who will either secrectly add 18% tip into the bill or stand right beside you when you are paying to make sure that you pay 18% tip.
She doesnt understand the fact that tip is earned but not begged. She gave 10% service but asked for 18% tips. When you gave something below 18%, she shouted at you being cheap while in fact she is the greedy and cheap one acting like a rude beggar.
This business will not be there for long because they are pushing customers away.

Customers, beware! These tip beggars demand large tips despite providing terrible service and maintaining an unhygienic environment. There were food scraps from previous diners all over the place, and we even found a rock in our food. Despite the awful experience, we still left a $2 tip out of courtesy, yet instead of appreciation, they yelled at us. Perhaps their boss is exploiting illegal workers, or they simply don’t understand that tipping is optional. Either way, we’ll be taking our business elsewhere.

Got their whole Hainan chicken to go, chicken didn’t have any flavor and wasn’t very fresh. Thinking about the timing, believe my family might have gotten the stomach flu after eating Hainan chicken. I wish I saw more of the reviews before eating here, didn’t know they had a roach problem.

Must renovate the place. Everything is very old and cleanliness must be improved. This, I think because the place is very old. Butbfood is great and. Service is fast.
