Since I have been with large parties I have had almost everything on the menu. All of it is good. There's never been a dish I didn't like. Plus, they cook-to-order. For me, I prefer my food spicy hot. When I asked for Malaysian hot, they had to ask me three times to make sure that's what I wanted. Kiwis aren't know for their tolerance of spicy food. When I assured them I was serious, they served me the food spicy hot. Others couldn't eat it, but I certainly enjoyed it.

I really enjoyed the vegetarian dish I ordered Malai Kofta. The flavour profile of the sauce was really different to the usual tomato based curries. The chicken tikka curry was a hit, the prawns too satisfied. The Fish Biryani was beautifully made, I just found the fish a little strong tasting. Everyone loved the gulab jamun to close. My Indian spiced tea was also delicious. Our waitress/owner was very gracious and lovely.

I had the lentils of the day (delicious) and my husband had chicken korma (made extra-spicy, which is hard for restaurants to get spicy enough for him). My husband reported that his two favorite Indian restaurants are here (and a place we ate at in Venice), and we've eaten a LOT of Indian food over the years. This little place is conveniently located downtown. Don't be fooled by the unassuming exterior; the food is lovingly prepared and downright delicious!

Could this be the best one yet, serving authentic and tasty Malaysian food, cooked the way good Malaysian food should be cooked? First indications were positive, so we went along, hungry and excited. The owners are very friendly and welcoming, and the menu looked good. We ordered the simple, but tasty basics; beef rending, chicken laksa, char koay teow. Dishes arrived - HUGE dishes ... with very small portions sitting, lost on their gigantic platters. All dishes tasted fine, though nothing special. Prices, however, are very high, too high for the fare and location. We'll either cook our own at home, which will be equally - if not, more satisfying, or eat at another of the good quality and value Malaysian restaurants.

Popped in here on a Friday night. Slightly off the busiest areas in Melbourne, it wasn't hard to…read moreget a table. The service was very attentive, my server let me know I could do everything via QR or order with her. I ordered a lamb curry and some roti and just because I wanted to try it I also got 1 piece of the fried chicken. It was all really good, but honestly the chicken was the best part. Excellent flavor, cooked perfectly and just a little spicy. If I ever go back here I will probably go for the fried chicken meal. I had wanted to try one of the sweet roti options for dessert, but by the time I finished the chicken, roti and most of the curry, I had no room left for more.

Here we found a new strip mall and New World market. To our surprise we also spotted this new place called Aruma Malaysian Restaurant. Mostly Malaysian hawker style meals ranging from the local favorites of Nasi Lemak or Char Kuay Teow or Roti Canai, the place was spanking new at just about a month old. We had to stop to try the Lobak and Otak Otak - both not too common here in NZ but making a showing amongst a few of the Malaysian restaurants here. The Lobak was great with a soft juicy filling and a light and crispy skin. The Otak Otak was firm and with lots of fish. Not as soft as I would have liked but good all the same. We also tried the Teh Tarik Ais. In all the ambiance was trendy and the service was great. Would definitely visit again!

This place came highly recommended by many. Quick easy simple meals at reasonable price…read more The place- spacious, decent amount of seats, but won't make you feel claustrophobic like many Chinese restaurants. The lighting could be a bit brighter. The food- can't really classify them into any particular style. They serve pretty much every style of Asian dishes including Japanese, Koran, Chinese, Thai. Has pretty much the most popular dish from each region. I went with the rule of don't try random stuff and go for the dish that's recommended. The beef noodle soup was for sure a good choice. The broth was hearty, hint of spiciness, good amount of noodles and thinly sliced beef. Very well cooked and essentially melts in your mouth. The chicken laksa was not as good as what you can get from a Malaysian restaurant north of Bombay. The drinks- bubble tea.. The service- friendly, no complaint.

Although this is more an Asian restaurant as opposed to being specifically Chinese, we were pleasantly surprised by the taste of the food since the selection was so broad and not as specialized/specific. We ordered a variety of dishes to share amongst our party of 6 and everything was pretty good. The servers were nice and pleasant, the food was pretty good, and the prices are reasonable. I would recommend checking this place out. (My mom and aunts wanted to come back again the next night which was a no-go considering we were in Rotorua by then and were not going to drive back).
