My son had an audition at FDU and we wanted to grab something to eat before we head back to NYC. I yelped and this place looked interesting. It is right across the street from the Morristown train station so there are many restaurants near by. The place is clean and not huge by NJ standard but cozy enough. Apparently it is BYOB since I saw a few ladies ( probably a lady's night out) brought their bottles of wine. We had Roti, Chicken Lettuce Cup, Curry Puff and Shrimp Mee. By NJ standard this is a 5 stars but NYC standard probably a 4 since we have so many to compare to. It is good to have this here and I can see why it is busy here ai ce residents probably don't want to travel to NYC when they have the craving for Malaysian food. read more

Lunch review only! Amazing prices for authentic malaysian food, although I still believe that the portion sizes could be a little bigger since it is mostly carbs. Came here with some coworkers for lunch, the flavors are definitely authentic and quite delicious but again....its asian food - give me more! Service was great - no issues came here right before the lunch rush but either way it seems to be a quick place so will definitely be returning for more malaysian food. I really want to try the mi goreng next time! read more

Decided to have Malaysian for my business meeting. Let me start off by saying, this place has its own hidden parking lot, which is easy to miss if your coming from the opposite side of the road. Be sure to utilize he parking area and avoid the meter parking, as mo-town is strict with parking tickets. Now onto the good stuff! Appetizers: malaysian curry puff. A-mazing. Thai Lettuce wrap- was good, not wow... but good. Moving on to entrees, keep in mind the portions are ENOrMOuS. Family style is the way to go here, your best bet is to order 2 and share with whomever your dining with. Entrees: Sarang Burong: The yam cake :) made with fried taro (a root starchy plant that very much resembles yam or potatoes) stuffed with chicken shrimp and vegetables. Definately a must try! Massaman Curry: ordered this with beef. Comes saturated in its glorious curry peanut sauce. You also have the option have requesting noodles as opoosed to rice. A very.... very generous portion I might add. Those of you with peanut or nut allergies in general, this cuisine is NoT for you. Peanuts are a primary staple on most of their menu. If your feeling adventurous, be cautious when ordering. Ive gotta say folks, the hit of the evening was the dessert. My colleague and I were feeling fancy and wanted to try a traditional authentic dessert true to Malaysia, so I took the plunge and ordered ICE KACANG. Blown - away. This heaping mound of shaved ice , infused with brown sugar and cocunut milk. Surrounded by a colorful array of purple, green, and white jello (we called the white ones jellyfish eggs lol). red kidney beans, and corn... topped with whipped cream. All kinds a crazy, in a good way. Turks have whats called "Ashure". Which is very similar to this dessert. (Minus the ice) Not only was it delicious, it was SO refreshing! Not overwhelmingly sweet, and you taste the hint of coconut in every bite. They were also kind enough to give us complimentary peanut cookies. Its peanut central. Try the coffee or the malaysian tea as a grand finale, mmm Mmm good. They can make anything on the menu spicey as per your request. I asked for their traditional spicey sauce, ya know, being the bold lover of heat. Needless to say, I was seeing stars and thought my lips were gonna fall off. Beware the liquid lava... The staff was extremely helpful, and courteous. What they lack in interior design they make up for in service. Besides the colorful pillows they havent done much in the dining area or the restroom. All in all it was a great evening. I will most definately come back when I am in the area. Two malay thumbs up. read more

Friendly and fast service. We got the roti canai, spring rolls, curry puff, mixed beef and chicken satay, and lastly a chicken pad Thai. All the food was delicious especially the beef satay, the flavoring was amazing. The portions size are generous, we definitely had left over food. read more

Excellent service every time we go there. The food is cooked fresh and it's always delicious. Highly recommend this place.

The worst curry puff I've ever had (half of one, didn't want to eat any more after that). Krapow was fairly bland, and it was pieces of chicken, not ground meat. I won't be trying this place again read more

Took an appetizer order to go, the honey squid. Great flavor on the sauce, though the squid was cooked rock-hard which was a little disappointing. Not too spicy. read more

Will miss Malay. Yet another company that is tacking on a $5 delivery fee atop the 15% i always tip. Some day somebody can explain to me why it costs $5 to take an order. Bye! read more

Amazingly tasty!! Golden squid perfectly cooked with delicious sauce. Thai basil noodle dish - like pad see ew but slightly spicy with savory with little kick of sweetness Chinese broccoli with salted fish - my favorite dish! Salted fish was incredible, just the right amount of salty with the broccoli Black pepper shrimp - very tasty, sauce great poured over the white rice Crumbly little peanut cookies came as a free dessert at the end. My little one liked picking a candy from the candy bowl at the end BYOB! Just ask for a glass and they're happy to bring you one. No complaints! read more

Malay has been a hit or miss for me .. being a vegetarian I thought Malay had some nice options . The first time we had some roti canai, Char kway teow and the tofu satay .. they were all good . The next time I had the Buddhist delight for lunch which was ok , a little bland for me. I went again for lunch one day and tried the mee goreng and the massaman curry and they were all good . Quick service during lunch . read more

Came here last night for dinner. It was a week night so no wait at all. We started off with the roti canai (with chicken curry) which was good. The roti itself was less buttery than others I've had but still tasty. For the meal, I went with chicken and broccoli and my friend got chicken pad Thai. We liked both dishes. He ordered the pad Thai spicy but neither of us thought it was spicy at al. Luckily I don't like spicy food so I thought it was delicious. read more

This is our favorite Malaysian place. Roti canai is good and the peanut cookies are awesome! Place can get crowded over the weekend so make sure you call ahead read more

We recently moved from northern New Jersey to upstate NY and absolutely love Thai and Malaysian food. Since we have no access to quality Asian food, we tried Malay as the reviews were outstanding. Unfortunately we had an absolutely terrible meal. All four of us gave it 1-star and we're confounded as to how the food could have been that bad and that far off from authentic Thai and Malaysian cuisine. I have never posted a review here, but felt compelled to warn people. read more

Went here for Christmas lunch. Place was empty but lots of takeout/delivery orders. Excellent service and excellent food. Loved the variety. Highly recommend the roti canai and veg spring rolls. For mains we had veg massaman curry, Thai basil fried rice and black pepper chicken. Love the ambience at this place - very cute, cozy warm. read more

Love this place! Great food and quantity of serving is amazing. Parking is a challenge but it's worth looking for one.

Enjoyed a great dinner here so I'm glad to upgrade from 3 to 4 stars. Roti canai was thin crispy curry goodness, entrees were good and mango sticky rice was the lighest and best Asian dessert I've ever had! Right, we started with roti canai, a huge thin yet puffy fried pancake, served with a small dish of mild curry sauce containing a potato and a piece of long-simmered meat. A steal at $4. I tried the Indian chili chicken, which was an overwhelmingly large plate of chicken chunks plus a sprinkling of onion and pepper slices. Without further instructions it arrived nicely spiced somewhere between mild and medium. Also liberally sprinkled with chunks of cinnamon bark, these gave an amazing flavor .. when they weren't messing up the old dental work. Chew carefully people LOL! About $14 with rice. My unindicted co-conspirator tried the Pad Thai, which was the usual wide rice noodles, bean sprouts, chicken and egg bits, peanut sprinkles, sauce etc. The sauce was unusually skewed towards the sweet side, so if you like sweet, you'll love it. Very reasonable at just $10. After our entrees we got a plate with two nice pieces of ripe honeydew melon, a nice touch. Finally we got mango sticky rice, a wonderful contrast of warm, creamy rice with coconut milk balanced by cold, ripe mango, what a great combo! Not very sweet but a great finish, a tad spendy at $6.50. Service was friendly and quick, actually the fill-the-water-glass-constantly thing isn't always so welcome, but I have to admit that we were never thirsty :) The chopsticks here are the good, large reusable kind (not splintery junk), kudos. I only have two teeny tiny minor complaints. First, you order rice separately and there's an extra charge for it, only a dollar or two, but seriously, just include it, ok? And with those chopsticks they don't offer or bring bowls, using chopsticks on a flat plate is an exercise for experts. Interior is very comfortable, not too bright nor dim, a bit of music playing so you don't worry about keeping your voice way way down, all in all a totally pleasant place. If you bring a group there's a semi-private room at the back with a huge round table, great seating for at least 8 people, more if they're good friends. read more

Malay - Sticky rice with mango - Thai Near Me - Morristown, New Jersey

Good food and service. Very unassuming place and can be very easily missed if not looking for it. A bit away from the main drag of Morristown but worth a visit. Tasty food, variety and easy on your wallet. BYOB is a plus and food is well prepared and served hot. Highly recommended and frequented by local and native crowd in a quiet and simple setting read more

Malay - Thai Near Me - Morristown, New Jersey

We have ordered from here to take out multiple times for work lunches and we are so impressed every time. Plenty of food and always fast and reliable service. We will continue to order from here!!! An office favorite!! read more

One server came to us and could ONLY take our apps order. We had to ask on two occasions for another server to come take our order. Our table was set for four people, interestingly, but it was a party of three. They kept refilling the forth glass of water. Food was prompt, and was tasty, but the service was average at best. It is BYOB, which is nice. read more

Been here several times and have always been impressed by the consistently good food and staff. I was honestly happy to find this place after being unimpressed with many other restaurants in Morristown. If you are new to Malaysian food and are wondering if you might like it, ask yourself this. Are you fan of Thai and/or Chinese food? If yes then the chances are high that you will enjoy eating at this place. If no, the chances are still pretty high that you can find something to enjoy at this place. Want to try something new like a dish with Taro in it? Let me recommend the Sarong Burong, it's a personal favorite. Fear not if you have a toddler in your party as the staff here are great with helping you and your little ones have an enjoyable time. read more

Here we have my go-to take-out restaurant. When I'm in the mood for a hot meal, but don't have the time or energy to cook, I rely on Malay. They have a great menu- I'm a sucker for their apps. Roti Canai and their beef/chicken skewers are my favorites. They also stir up a mean chicken curry!! Additionally, the staff is always so nice and welcoming whether I'm picking up or dining in. read more

We came here for dinner on Saturday around 6:30 and was promptly seated. I think we got lucky on the timing because as we ordered, the tables filled up fast. We ordered the roti telur for appetizer, Malay Char Kway Teow and Sizzling Black Pepper (beef). 10/10 would recommend all 3 dishes. They also offer some Thai dishes and curries. Nice variety of flavors. Will be back soon to try more! And will make a reservation next time! read more

I am so glad to have found this place in Morristown which is only 5 minute walk from my apartment! The staff here is very friendly. When I told them that I had just moved to Morristown they gave me a 10% discount card (for cash only) for a warm welcome. I haven't tried that many dishes on the menu but I can tell you the Roti Canai was heaven on earth! Will definitely frequent this place a lot! read more

Malay - My new go-to place in Morristown! - Thai Near Me - Morristown, New Jersey

Ordered the Sarang Burong and Thai basil noodles to go. I'd never had the sarang burong before but it was good! Reminds me a little of this fried taro dim sum dish I love. The vegetables and chicken that went inside the taro bowl were also very good. The Thai noodles tasted great too. Glad I gave this place a try. read more

Great food, great service. A must try- fried eggplant. It's light like a cloud and very yummy. Tom yum soup is amazing. Pad Tai was a bit sweet for me but still good. They cook tofu a way that it comes out tasting like meat :) read more

I'm giving this restaurant 3 stars because I've ordered from this restaurant before and it was so delicious, the roti canai is like being in Thai heaven and so was the Indian chilli chicken. However, I recently ordered the Malaysian fried rice with shrimp and the shrimp tasted chalky and had a funny smell kinda like stale pee, eewww! I will definitely order from them again but not seafood. read more

All it takes is ordering the right food. Lets get something straight: this isn't a Thai restaurant. The first time I came here, my group and I ordered Thai and were severely disappointed. Just because they offer it, doesn't mean thats what they excel in. Now their Malaysian dishes, thats where Malay shines. I'll be the first to admit, I am very unfamiliar with Malaysian cuisine. But I'm ready to learn. The Roti Canai is an excellent savory pancake that is served with a potato-chicken curry dipping sauce. A little bit of heat, but not very much. The Malay Prawn Mee is an excellent soup. A nice shrimp soup base, with a savory kick from the pork is awesome. The noodles really tie the whole soup dish together. The Lamb Chop Rendang was cooked perfectly; well-done, fall off the bone chops simmered in a spicy blend of coconut milk, ginger, turmeric, lemongrass, galangal, and a flurry of other spices. I usually don't like my pork chops well-done, but I think i've found an exception. The Squid Sambal is a very sweet dish. Squid, peppers, and onion sautéed in sambal belacan. The belacan had a lot of extra sugar, too much maybe, but still delicious. All in all, I will be back to try more Malaysian staples and hopefully will be armed with additional experience to compare this to. read more

Good local Malaysian spot. Portions are generous and food is authentic. Would highly recommend the Roti canai, Indian chili chicken, and the Char Kway Teow. read more

Everything is sooo good! Their Haianese chicken rice is my favorite and their coconut rice is so addicting! Can't wait to try everything else on their menu! read more

The gentleman serving us was very kind, and helpful giving us recommendations and suggestions. We got the roti canai, the Chinese broccoli with garlic, pineapple fried rice and the pineapple curry chicken. Everything was amazing! The desserts like the sticky mango and black sticky rice were delish, and we got a peanut pancake to go for later. Love this place. Definitely recommend it here! read more

Coming from Flushing Queens NY I have some pretty high standards when it comes to Malaysian food so I will try to be gentle. We ordered the beef rendang , chicken rice , Malaysian noodles among others. The food was good but comparing it to NY standards particularly coming from flushing queens where we have Pulau Pinang this food was under seasoned and not as flavorful. It needed a bit more kick in the spice department but otherwise was good. We got several dishes between 10 people and the price point was very reasonable. All and all it was pretty good by NJ standards and easy on the pocket. Definitely somewhere to check out if you can't make the trek to the NY. read more

Amazing food.great seafood & Tom yum soup is so delicious. My husband and I have been coming here for over a year & it's about time I left a review. We have both loved the lettuce wraps,dumpling,chili chicken....pad Thai & jumbo shrimp are the best. We also love the complimentary peanut cookies. We need to buy them next time. :) read more

I always have a great experience here. They are fine with substituting egg noodles with rice noodles, they will make sure no meat is in your dish, they will not use fish sauce upon request. And they added vegetarian chicken to the lunch menu! My absolute fave is the Mee Gorang. Replace egg noodle with flat square rice noodle, no fish sauce, no egg, add tofu. And PLEASE try the black sticky rice. Coconut milk and black rice...I need it everytime I go, no matter how full I am! Modern, clean atmosphere. They also have a somewhat private room in the back with a huge table for large parties. read more

Malay - Black sticky rice (pre-mixed) and mango sticky rice. - Thai Near Me - Morristown, New Jersey

I have taken the train to work for a long time and passed this restaurant many time. Yesterday, I was too lazy to cook so we finally walked in for dinner. The staff immediately knew that we are new cunstermer. BYOB. The food are a little fatty, but very tasteful. I love the gilled chicken-beef appetizer with plenty of smoky flavor. The two entrees are not bad as well. I think The Thai iced tea was made from powder and I prefer adding a little more water to make it smoother. The floor need further cleaning as you can feel the sticky surface. After the dinner, we were given a couple of their home made peanut cake, which you can buy as in box. read more

Order takeout was told 25 minute to come and pickup. I waited 30 minutes outside the store. Every 10 minute they said it be 10 minutes more almost ready. When I ordered the seafood combo I asked if it could be made mild not spicy. Well my wife could not eat it because of the extreme HEAT. We traded our dishes and it was very spicy and I can handle spice...beside being extremely hot the seafood coating was soggy and came off the seafood very disappointing. On the plus side the wonton soup was generous with the dumplings and broth very tastey. Duck salad was ok..needed more seasoning. Basil Thai duck was average large portion. I understand times are different, but they should be more accurate on the pickup times. read more

First time I went here, had the red curry and massaman. Was not too impressed then. The next time I had their tum tum soup and pad Thai, and it was the best in the area! The pad Thai comes in a huge serving, with ample protein. It has since become my go to place for pad Thai! read more

Horrible. Papaya salad was super sweet without any taste. They have no extra seasoning except just adding by jalapeños. Prices were not consistent with food quality. Would not return. Still hungry after leaving the restaurant. Definitely not authentic food read more

Terrible food. I don't know how this place gets such good reviews. Thai Iced tea was flavorless. I never got bad Thai Iced tea before in any restaurant! And it was served in a cloudy plastic cup. That was a tip-off but things got worse from there. Had Pad Thai and the noodles tasted burnt and were completely rubbery. They were hard to chew! Also had Pi Pa duck which lacked any flavor and was tough. My guests and I left half the meal since it was so unappetizing. On top of that, the waitress never checked back to see how we were doing even though the place was practically empty. The worst part was that all of us had stomach pains that night and the next day. Absolutely terrible experience and leaves me concerned about how all of those positive reviews were written. read more
