The roti canai here is truly authentic as it is in Malaysia itself. Recommended.

Huzaifa Khambalia

The Char Kway Teow is to die for! The satay chicken is pretty good too! Banana fritters are not to be missed!

mistaken mr

One of the best place for Malaysian to remember their food in London

Kasia Gé

Amazing food for a great price. Very tasty

Edwin Tan

Really Authentic Malaysian fare. The fried bee hoon was a standout. Unfortunately Teh Tarik was not milky enough. But overall standout food!

Hani Azahari

Amazing teh tarik ! Chicken sambal was really tender but might be too spicy fr some people

S Yusop

Nasi lemak is highly recommended! Delicious

Nat M

Not quite the strong flavours I hoped for though the fish curry had the right sour oomph & sambal eggplant was pretty good. Still if you need your Malaysian food fix Makan is a decent choice.

Cheryl Anne Low

Really good nasi lemak . And the cengkodok is better than most back home too! Two thumbs up! :)

Jamie Archer

It's all about the murtabak if you have never tried this Malaysian specialty you haven't lived!

Madir Mustaffa

Amazing Malaysian food . Try the nasi campur or 'mixed rice '. Ask for roti canai and teh tarik too.

Alyssa Ng

Nice food and reminds Malaysians of home.

Tina Chen

I had the green curry , allspice chicken and broccoli with mange tout on pain rice . The curry tasted of water down coriander . The chicken lacked allspice. Doesn't help that all food is microwaved.

A good place for authentic Malay food in London . Halal assurance is by the Muslim owners. Try their Laksa or Rendang

S Yusop

I miss their Nasi Lemak . So yummy ????
