Malaysian friends recommended for real authentic Malay cuisine. And they were right :) Our usual: prawn mee Watercress Hainanese chkn Roti canai read more

The beef rendang is flavorful, although I'm not sure it's worth $30. Its a fairly small portion for the price. After accounting for value I'd rate this at a 2, but the items on the menu look more reasonable so I'll bump it up to 3. I always get takeout, but have noticed that the restaurant is on the smaller side. read more

Delicious food, large portions for a great price!! We walked in around 12pm on a Sunday and there was no wait for 2 people. Ordered roti canai which was sooo good, as well as hainanese chicken rice and Malaysia Cheong Fun with Curry Sauce. Hainan chicken itself was good although not the best I've had, but the rice and soup were excellent. I'd come here again! read more

The food impresses while the clean environment adds to the experience. They serve plates full of food. The employees handle busy periods gracefully. Every team member's smile helps create a pleasant experience. The overall experience was great. read more

Food is usually a 20 minute minimum wait for takeout. C rating. There's indoor seating. The furniture is relatively old. Roti canai - 4/5 - roti was too thick. It wasn't flaky. The curry had a really fresh coconut smell. Seafood Tom yum rice noodle - 2/5 - soup was good, but the fish balls were very fishy. I think they went bad. Shrimp was over cooked. Hainanese chicken rice - 5/5 - delicious! The hot sauce has a slight kick. Chicken was good. Oil rice with soy sauce was good. Perfect combination! read more

One of my favorite and probably most authentic Malaysian go to spots in the flushing neighborhood. Although the inside of the restaurant may be dingy, their food sure isn't! There is a a wide selection of authentic dishes however I would recommend their Asam laksa which is packed with flavor and their chow kueh teow that is stir fried to perfection! read more

Malay Restaurant - Hainan chicken & Fish head soup. - Malaysian Near Me - Flushing, New York

Malay restaurant is a Catonese run restaurant trying to put out Malaysian food and some of it is on point and some of it is a miss. First the good. The roti canai and sate are excellent. Best sate I've ever had anywhere. I'd come back for that sate alone and just eat that. We got a curry and tofu noodle dish and char kwey tiow. The shrimp were hammered in the char kwey tiow. There was no sausage in it. And the noodles were greasy. GREASY. It had no wok hey. No smokiness. The tofu & fish cake in the curry was yummy. However, it came on a bed of noodles that were soggy and overcooked and that was pretty much the whole dish. Noodles with a few pieces of tofu skin on top. We had no idea. Neither of these tasted like Malay food. The flavor was wrong. There's the cook in the front grilling the sate. Whatever he's doing, he clearly knows what he's doing. Then there's the cooks int he back making the other stuff. They need to get a proper Malaysian cook back there who knows what they are doing. I was so sad. It's the only Malaysian restaurant in the area that takes credit cards. I wanted it to be better. :( read more

Only real Malay restaurants offer asam laksa & this is one of them, this review is for take out experience only. The laksa broth was nice & sour with good fish flavor & there are still bits of anchovies swimming around. Keng kung belachan was solid with strong shrimp paste thats salty & mildly spicy, regret not getting any white rice. read more

Came here with my best friend because we were craving Malaysian food and we were in the area. The roti was good, we were expecting it to be a bit bigger or at least come with another small piece. It was good but smaller than we expected. The Hainese chicken was delicious! We love it and it definitely satisfied our cravings. The shrimp with ladyfingers was a bit spicier than normal but still pretty good. The service was good, we can't complain. It's a mom and pop authentic Malaysian spot and we would definitely come back. read more

Decent malaysian food. The appetizer platter is okay. I like the deep fried tofu skin roll. The shrimp cake is okay for me but my friend likes it. Fried tofu is lame. The roti canai is good, especially the bread. The noodles is okay, a little overcooked tho. The place is pretty small. read more

I had the opportunity to come here with my sister as she was craving Malaysian food. This hole in the wall restaurant was relatively easy to find. We were seated right away and were provided hot tea. Can you say that you've gone to a Malaysian restaurant if you don't order Roti Canai? My sister and I decided to order 2 so that we can each have one and not share. It was super delicious and I was surprised by how fluffy the roti was. For the satay, we were able to mix the meats and get 3 chicken satay and 3 beef satay. I did find that the beef was more on the salter side than I was used to. My sister ordered the Haianese Chicken with Rice and finished the whole thing. With all the food we ordered, we were pretty full at the end of the meal. We had quite a few leftover as well. The price was very affordable. read more

My go to spot in Flushing for Malaysian food. We've been coming here for years either dining in or taking out. They also take credit card here (though tip is calculated post tax). My usuals to get here are: chicken satay, hokkien mee and chow kueh teow. This time we dined in and added the beef rendang. Food here is tasty and flavorful. read more

Next stop, we switched gears to Malaysian food, and Malay did not disappoint! The place was small and a bit old, but you could tell right away that the food was authentic. We ordered the roti, Hainanese chicken, and BBQ fish fin. The roti was a bit salty for my taste, but the Hainanese chicken was the star of the meal--so juicy, tender, and melt-in-your-mouth good. I could easily eat half a chicken by myself! Just thinking about it still has me drooling. If you're craving Hainanese chicken and want a quick, satisfying bite, I highly recommend this place. read more

My go-to Malaysian restaurant when I need a savory fix!! We got 1/2 hainanese chicken and chicken broth rice to go along with it which was super juicy and delicious. The roti canai was delicious, both flaky and soft, and the curry was very good (a small kick but manageable). Chicken satay mixed with the peanut sauce is always great. Got the Malaysian cheong fun w curry sauce was SPICYY, but lots of flavor. I cannot handle my spice well so it was not fun haha. I would skip on this dish next time though unless you're a big curry fan. This was a LOT of food for $60, so worth! read more

It's a very small restaurant, but the food is very good and authentic. The chicken satay was honestly the best Malaysian chicken satay I've had in NJ and NY. So much flavor and cooked to perfection! The squid with water spinach was out of this world, and it came with so much extra sauce that I was just dipping the achat pickles into it The Hokkien Mee could have been a bit better but it was still good. It's one of those dishes that is a bit more difficult to get right. However, I didn't like the addition of what tasted like liver in it. The Achat was refreshing, and the Chow Kueh Teow was cooked with enough wok hei but I do prefer it with a bit more flavor. The sambal chili they gave added a nice touch the chow kueh teow was missing. We would have tried more but wanted to food hop in Flushing. read more

Food was amazing. Had the roti canal, roti was soft and curry was delicious. We also had mixed satay was tender and juicy. The bok choy in garlic was so flavorful and the noodles were divine. Definitely coming back as often as possible. read more

The one star is only for the wait time for a take out order. 30 mins and counting. I haven't had their food in a while but there is definitely not a lot of orders and the wait is still forever. I suggest giving them an hour for take out orders. You might still be waiting even then. I was told there is only 1 chef making all the food, so they couldn't even rush the chef. The food itself was ok, nothing special. Their food used to be better that I could deal with the wait. Looks like a completely different owner/group managing the restaurant now. read more

Our go to place for authentic Malaysian food. As good as the hawkers in JB. Been coming here for over 25 years. If you're looking for a fancy dining experience this is not the place. Service is excellent, prices are higher than they used to be (but expected and still worth it) Our favorites include Char quetow, chicken rendang, Buddhist yam, satay, curry laksah, nasi lemak, chicken curry... Go and enjoy. read more

I don't want people knowing about this spot and then it getting crazy busy and I'm forced to wait 25+ minutes for a table. This place is EVERYTHING we all love about Flushing. Delicious food, huge portions, dirt cheap prices, staff that practically ignore your existence. Perfect example of an experience in Flushing. 1. Food: AMAZING. Chicken curry noodles was JUST $7. With tons of huge pieces of chicken. Fried tofu with sweet and chili sauce was phenomenal. It's a great palate cleanser. It comes served on top of a really refreshing salad. Lastly gotta do the roti canai. Literally just $4.5 and it's a great starter. 2. Staff: Hard to flag down. Limited English so they aren't offering any recommendations nor great at explaining dishes. But food came out really fast so I'm not complaining. 3. Seating: Very strict about keeping the restaurant half full. Me and my friend weren't even allowed in and told to sit outdoors. The weather was nice so we didn't complain. Nice to see outdoor and indoor seating offered. 1 card per table and only Visa or Mastercard. Aside from that, it's a great restaurant with delicious food options. I'll stop by again when I'm in Flushing. read more

This place used to be good but now seems the price gone up and the quality went down. The roti is just like the frozen one you get from the market. The curry chicken had way too much coconut milk which watered down the curry. The green beans was good but we asked for it with no shrimp but think they did not discount it at all. The beef satay came with some hair on the cucumbers...ewww. Think I will need to find a new place to have Malaysian in Flushing. read more

Big fan of Malay! Every time I'm in NY I try to make it a point to go and get their curry chicken. The restaurant is a little easy to miss and rather small; you seat yourself and the server brings out some tea and menus. The food is great-- my only qualm is that rice costs an extra $1 per bowl if you dine in, and $2.50 if you order to go. Without the rice, the curry chicken is $15 pre-tax. Will definitely be back! read more

One of the BEST hole in the wall restaurants in Flushing. Me and my friend went during the afternoon and it was empty. The nice staff told us we can sit anywhere and a waitress came to take our orders very quickly. My friend ordered the shrimp noodle soup and the broth and noodles were very tasty. I ordered the chicken satay and chicken rice which were delicious. We also had the roti which was perfectly crispy on the outside and soft and hot in the middle. Overall great experience and I will definitely be here again. read more

So in addition to craving soup dumplings while in NY, I also had to have Hainanese chicken. One of my childhood favorites. I do not get proper Hainan Chicken in Orlando. Had dinner at Malay Restaurant in Flushing with the parents. We did everything family style of course. Started with the roti canai, squid with water spinach in spicy sauce, Chow Keuh Teow (noodles), Hainan chicken with the coconut rice and the chicken rice. I loved the chicken the most. It's a comfort food that I can't get right back at home. The chicken was not dry and had the soy sauce over it. Enough meat. Was really good over both the coconut rice and the chicken rice. I will be missing this place a lot. read more

My family and I have been coming here for years for authentic Malaysian food. It's a hole in the wall that you can easily walk past, so look for the green awning that says "Malay" on it. We've been here for countless family meals and we love the delicious food!! Waitresses have always been quick if you flag them down, just don't expect to be checked on frequently. They're nice enough! Best to come for a group so you can try a handful of dishes family style. My favorites are the hainan chicken with oil rice, curry soup noodles with stuffed vegetables, and hokkein noodles. But honestly anything is good here! If you come for dinner it'll be pretty packed. I came here for Wednesday lunch and almost every small table had people eating after grocery shopping. read more

Was craving curry and tried this spot since i don't know any good curry spots since Sentosa closed down many years ago. Rainy day so did not visit, instead ordered via UberEats. It was packed nice and tight, no leaks and still piping hot. Roti - was good, so good it was stolen by my child from me. It had one big piece of chicken in it and was a little creamier or thicker maybe, than I'm used to, but no complaints here as it had great flavor and easier for my little man to scoop it with the roti. Chicken curry with rice - had potatoes as well and was spicier than the curry with the roti which i was happy about. There were barely any bones and had the perfect amount of sauce. It tasted sooo good and satisfied my curry craving. Once again, little man was eyeballing the curry so we shared it. This is my, err our, new go-to curry spot! Now that i know their curry is top notch, i can try other menu items. read more

My favorite spot to get Malaysian food in Flushing! Yes it's a hole-in-the-wall but the food brings it EVERY SINGLE TIME. I've tried a bunch of things but my favorites are definitely the roti canai, chow kuey teoh, Hainanese chicken and rice, and red bean shaved ice. The Hainanese chicken is tender and flavorful, and so was the yellow rice. And finally, the sauces (soy and chili garlic sauce) really complimented the chicken. Given that Sentosa is gone, I hope this spot stays in Flushing for as long as possible! Love love love this spot. read more

Malay Restaurant - Hainanese chicken, yellow rice - Malaysian Near Me - Flushing, New York

I was introduced to the Malaysian cuisine not long ago and was brought to this restaurant for the first time by a former friend. When I first walked in I was immediately hit by a sense of comfort. A somewhat small space with families gathered around, enjoying their time together with a bunch of delicious looking dishes that made my empty stomach growl louder than ever. Long story short, the rest of my experience was amazing and it got me HOOKED. So get ready yelpers because this is going to be a long one! A few weeks ago my boyfriend and I decided to come here for our anniversary dinner because he likes to stick to his Korean roots most of the time but I like to have variety, so I try to push him onto new stuff and he simply HAD to come here with me. We entered the space and were directed to our seats. Having had barely anything for the day, we ordered a feast of a half Hainanese chicken, shrimp with cream, beef satay, oil rice, and baby bok choy with garlic sauce. The prices are alright not too expensive but some dishes are priced as "S.P." which if I'm not wrong means seasonal price. The food came after about 15 mins and my boyfriend immediately went for the satay... I had to stop him from eating my share :,) The beef was well seasoned and tender and the satay sauce was the perfect nutty condiment. I love to munch on the cucumbers on the side immediately after I take a bite of the skewer, the freshness of the cucumber pairs well with it all. Moving on to the shrimp with cream, my favorite part. One thing I love in this world is seafood and this place does not disappoint. The shrimps are properly deveined but still have their shell on which gets nice and crispy when fried, like I don't even bother to take it off since it carries so much flavor. The caramelized coconut cream gives it the slightest hint of nuttiness so good that you won't even be mad if it stained your clothes! Next on the list is the hainanese chicken which is pretty good. I'm not a huge fan because it tastes a bit too "chickeny" so I don't have it often but it is incredibly soft and juicy. It goes well with the sweet chili sauce on the side. I haven't had regular white rice in this restaurant because I always get the oil rice. For those who don't know, it's just rice mixed with the oil that the hainanese chicken is cooked in. Sounds simple right? You'll be surprised. The rice is so flavorful that I could have it by itself for a meal (a not so nutritious one) no joke!! The bok choy was pretty tasty, it was soft and the garlic sauce was rightfully garlicky. We were so full we couldn't walk by the time we finished but did not regret it one bit. Gotta note not to go there too late because after we were seated, the restaurant got full pretty quickly and I'm sure they remained full until closing time. If you love Malaysian food and are strolling around Main Street, definitely consider giving this place a try. Whatever you order, guaranteed it will be mouth watering! Until next time :) read more
