| - Basis for my starred ratings (which skews heavily to the food or drink):
1 star: Never again.
2 stars: Poor food, poor experience, extraordinary measures in order for me to come back.
3 stars: Average, nothing really special, nothing particularly bad.
4 stars: Very good, would definitely return.
5 stars: A favorite, one of the best.
Support this place. It's worth supporting. It's a little out of the way and service can be uneven, but the food is well-executed and delicious.
Haven't had a lot of Malaysian food, only once before I moved to Arizona, so I can't say I'm comparing this to the best that may be out there. Just going on taste and preparation. On my first visit here I ordered the roti canai and the nasi lemak. The roti was fine, maybe a tick above average. I've had roti before many times and but never in this iteration and my only gripe was that the curry lacked a little flavor. The nasi lemak was great. Hot, crispy, and very filling. Subtle in flavor, but with the sambal, kicked up the flavor and was quite tasty.
So tasty that I ordered it again on my next visit with my wife, who ordered the char kway teow. Also good, reminiscent of chow fun. Noodles could stand a little more chewiness but for a stir-fried noodle dish, it was pretty good.
Get the barley drink. If you're familiar with Korean shik-ae, that's exactly what it tastes like and it's great.
Hoping one day they serve rendang.
