What People Say

"Best food I have ever eaten!!"

Reviewers consistently praise the fresh, handmade food and the delicious roti and curries. It's a great local takeaway spot.

"Great local Malaysian takeaways. Highly recommend their roti, they do sweet flavours of the roti too."

"We weren't sure what to expect as this was one of the only places that was open the day after Boxing Day. The food was incredibly fresh and handmade right in front of us. We were very pleasantly surprised as the food quality and taste were excellent! Would highly recommend coming here."

"Take away Beef Martabak & Mango Lasi yesterday before going home, while waiting for our order to be made, kids play with the game provided in the table. I really like the space even small but clean and tidy with open kitchen concept so we can see the process and see the staff when made our order."

"Delicious, quick and great value food! I had the roti dhal meal which I really enjoyed. No frills restaurant which I love :)"
