Pretty good, but not worth the price..
I love Indonesian and Malaysian food. This place is OK but nothing to write home about. The Sate' was too sweet for my taste, but not awful. The salads were too vinegary, but again were acceptable.
In Amsterdam there are a hundred little mom and pop places with food of this caliber, but the prices are much lower. As it is, you pay too much for this place because it's the only place around with this style of food. They should stop pretending to be a fine dining restaurant, lower their prices, and just be a good snack bar.
I wonder why this place is listed under Indian food. There are no Indian selections on the menu.…
More than little scary.
It was our first time there and our last.
We went for dim sum which was actually rather good.
I am from San Francisco and grew up eating dim sum.
Dim sum houses in SF are notorious for rude service something one just accepts, but our server was beyond pushy as he brought the carts of food around
he kept trying to put food on our table we clearly did not want.
I could live with this but as we where leaving an employee seated at a small table was
prepping food for public consumption at the same time she was eating and spitting bits of food back on to her plate.
If that's what happens in the dinning room I can only imagine whats happening behind the doors of the kitchen.…
Very good food, great service. The selection is great, noodle dishes and the mango chicken were excellent. Great service as well. I was impressed with the Malaysian beer selection
GO to any other Asian place on 82nd, but not this one!!!. This place has gone DOWNHILL, it pretty much Stinks!!! Service was OK, but the wait was not worth the food. Extremely small portions. Everything on the menu has raised .50 cents per item!!! WTF Why should I pay extra because your already over priced for the neighborhood? We were one couple of 2 other people eating in the place at 5:30 on a Friday night!!! 1.75 for a can of coke? 1.50 for a small serving of white rice (small cup) my dish should have come with rice, there lunch menu has rice included with it. Free soda refills at lunch, but you bring me a warm can of coke and no refill for dinner? This place really wants to stroke you for extra money, and trust me, there was no happy ending to this meal!!! This place will go by the wayside because I will never recommend it to anyone. I have eaten at this place since it opened and have seen it's greediness push customers away. Thanks, but no thanks. You will be happier if you try most any place on 82nd, and the prices will be much better that Malay!!!…
fantastic food, fast friendly service. WOW!!! We arrived at Malay Satay Hut at a friends recommendation. We ate here 2 times that first week. If the restaurant were closer to home this would be our weekly dinner out. The service was fast, friendly and helpful in navigating the menu. The wait staff also exhibited extreme patience, if not kindness when our child insisted on getting up to explore the live fish tanks every 5 minutes. However the best part of our experiences to date has most definitely been the food, its amazing!! Fresh, clean, authentic flavors. Everything we've tried has been 5 stars. Our four year old daughter loves the mango chicken, its a bit spicy for her young taste buds, but she enjoys it so much she wont stop eating. Other dishes that have made an impression are the Chicken Satay, Roti Canai, Curry Lamb, Coconut Rice and my favorite Hokkien Mee. We also tried a crispy pork rib dish that was absolutely fantastic. I'm looking forward to our next dinner out, there are so many interesting dishes to try.…
