Eight years after my initial review, Mamak remains our family's favorite spot. I believe the restaurant has changed hands at least once, but the food quality, ambiance, and portion sizes have remained consistent. Prices have increased since my last visit (of course), but they're still quite reasonable. The service is exceptional! We always enjoy chatting with Jojo and Chloe when we're there. These two ladies are incredibly friendly and helpful. My parents visit so frequently that Jojo already knows their orders without them having to say a word lol. You never have to wait long; our orders come out one dish after another very quickly. Our go to orders: * Chow Quay Teow * Fish Fillet * Kari Fish Fillet * Salt & Pepper Squid * Hainanese Chicken + Chicken Rice!! * Salt & Pepper Tofu * Stir Fried Okra in Garlic TBH you can't go wrong with anything on the menu. Highly recommend. read more

Yummy! Who knew?!?? An entire community tucked away and overflowing with shopping, dining, medical and MORE resources. We decided to try Mamak after our 1st option was BOOKED and busy for Cinco ... EXCELLENT choice. Since it was both our first time, we ordered an assortment of items including the puffs, spring rolls, egg noodles, roti and our entrees. My tofu and veggie dish was flavorful with a hint of spice. My friend ordered the glass noodles with chicken and shrimp. Great service. Absolutely locally patronized - always a good sign - and a range of options. Loved this for my first time having Malaysian food ! read more

Kids and I came on a Saturday for an early dinner. We were seated promptly and served a cool container of water right away. We ordered the roti canai with one extra pancake, the haianese chicken with coconut rice, dry fried green beans, mango chicken, and the chow kway teow. My son thought the coconut rice and mango chicken were amazing. I loved the green beans and chow kway teow. Daughter liked the roti canai and the Havanese chicken with spicy sauce served on the side. We were really impressed with how quickly all the dishes came out. They do a robust to go business as well. I definitely want to bring my husband here next time! And get their vegan location a mile away. read more

Food comes by fast. Good prices. Nice portions. For the food, the roti is good. The satay skewers didn't really have a strong aroma and aren't too tender. The beef stew is good. The walnut shrimp is gas. But I just like walnut shrimp. They were BUSY but they still got us seated and feed expediously. Big ups. Table could be less wobbly and slightly sticky. read more

We got a whole bunch of dishes with my favorite being the fried fish with bell peppers which had a spicy taste. The curry pastry was not the best but the rest of the main dishes were phenomenal! The spice wasn't too bad and the ambiance of the restaurant was nice. Service was pretty gas as they got all our orders in one go. read more

Mamak has been on my list for a while rn, so headed over to try this popular Malaysian spot on a Saturday evening. It was quite crowded so we put down a spot on the waitlist. The wait wasn't too long and we got seated fairly quickly. It is a bit crammed in there and gets noisy ofc since the tables are quite close to each other. We ended up getting their curry puff pastry and Kari fish fillet that comes with rice. Both of the dishes were absolutely delicious! Explosion of flavor, not as spicy as I would have liked but overall great! There were so many other dishes that I wanted to try but their menu is large and love that they label what are in the dishes. We got the food very quickly and overall glad I tried the spot. This complex gets quite busy as it is in the Sweet Hut plaza so be prepared to look for parking and there are some spots tucked away in the back. read more

It's been a couple of years since we have back here and not sure why we haven't because the food we had tonight was so good. We were craving some Malaysian food and decided to come back to Mamak. We ordered Eggplant salted fish & chicken and Curry beef Brisket. Both were soo delicious!! Beef was tender and curry was flavorful! The eggplant dish was also so good. It was a nice balance flavor with the salted fish. We'll be back again soon' read more

Prices have definitely gone up, but I love this place -- honestly, it's just that good. I don't even think about the price:quality:quantity ratio because the food wins every time. I can't really speak much about cleanliness, but overall, it's a solid spot. Service can be hit or miss; they'll take care of you, but it's not always warm or welcoming. The food, though, is consistently excellent. I've never had a poor experience here -- the flavors are always balanced, seasoned perfectly, and cooked just right. I've tried a wide range of dishes, and this is one of the rare places where I genuinely want to try everything on the menu. It's almost like I'm looking for a dish that falls short, but I haven't found one yet (maybe I've just been lucky). Even though I no longer live in Georgia, I make a point to come back whenever I visit home for the holidays. It's also a go-to for bringing visitors because it's never disappointed me. I do warn friends about the service beforehand, but the food more than makes up for it. I'm docking one star for service and ambiance, but the flavors are a solid 5/5. read more

Nice experience trying Malaysian. We enjoyed the roti canai and sambal okra. Curry laksa was ok, wish the broth had more flavor. The kids liked the hand tossed noodles. Service can be slow at times if they get super busy. read more

Small restaurant but still works for a large party as they will combine tables for you. With a party of 9, we ordered lots of dishes! I didn't do the ordering, so I can't list the dishes, but everything was tasty. Employees were not particularly smiley, but service was fine overall. read more

First time dining in after a few take outs. Casual restaurant with some nice staff. Luckily it wasn't too busy on a Sunday before 12pm and by the time we left they were about half full. Ordered: Roti canai - best appetizer!! I love flaky roti dipped into the delicious curry sauce. So good. Highly recommend and 1 order is good for every 2 persons I think. Curry Noodle Soup (laksa) with seafood - not bad but disappointed in the broth, more on the liquid side than thick and rich. The seafood was nice and tender and had a good variety though. Wish there were toppings like fish balls and tofu. Hainan chicken rice - pretty good but first time having the chicken be warm rather than room temp or cold. Garlic rice was fragrant and portion was huge, you can order 1/4 or 1/2 chicken and we accidentally got half lol Kari fish fillet - our fave main dish!! The curry was so flavorful and rich, lots of tender white fish and filled with a good variety of veg. Def would get again. Overall a great restaurant to get Malaysian food! Would definitely return to try other items. read more

There is plenty parking space, and service was courteous. I was expecting more Malaysian food, the menu shows about 3/4 are Chinese food, specially Cantonese food. My wife ordered CHOW KWAY TEOW （炒粿條）and I ordered CURRY LAKSA (咖喱麵). both were very good and tasty. For the fried noodle I liked the chewy noodle, but the squid part was little hard to chew; I liked my Laksa soup, which was creamy and right amount of spicy, but the noodle can be better. BTW, Roti Canai was also good with Laksa dip sauce. read more

We came here to experience Malaysian cuisine because we have a passion for trying different cultures around the world. We started off with the Roti Canai (worth the hype), Mamak Fried Wonton, & their Curry Wonton Soup! Everything was simply amazing. Very bold packed flavors. For our main dish we ordered the Nasi Lemak with spare ribs as our choice of meat and not onlyyyyyy is the presentation a beauty, everything on this plate was a 10/10! Thai Tea & Chinese Herbal Tea Was Also Amazing! Customer service was outstanding! Our waiter made sure walk me through their menu to help me have a better understanding of why "everything in Malaysia revolves around great food". This place on the overall was such a phenomenal experience. I will definitely be back for the food, service, & ambience! Thank you guys so much! We got all this for around $45! read more

It's been a minute since i've had delicious Malaysian food so when I saw great reviews on Yelp, I became quite excited to try this place out. They have a blackboard with the specialties written out. So we decided to try out the four items that were written out. Roti Canai, Hainanese Chicken, curry lasagna and an okra dish. Yum, the chicken was super tender, curry was flavorful and the roti with the dip was delicious! Location is in a strip mall so there's abundance of parking just outside. Friendly service and the food came out fairly quick so this was an ideal spot for lunch for us. Will definitely return! read more

Don't be fooled by the small interior because this restaurant comes with big flavors! My friend and I decided on the roti canai, curry puff, mango chicken, and rendang beef. Both the mango chicken and rendang beef had a good balance of protein and vegetables. The mango chicken was out of this world! The curry in the rendang beef was spot on, and the beef was very tender. Prices are fair. These four dishes totaled to around $60. My only complaint is that they were a bit disorganized while the restaurant was busy and did not have any system of keeping track of which parties arrived first. This caused some confusion, and I ended up getting seated much later than what I was told. Other than this, I'd be happy to come back for more of their dishes. Definitely worth a try if you're looking for authentic South East Asian flavors. read more

Fast usually not during peak times and good Small dining area so you might have to wait during peak times I know they're known for their hainanese chicken lo mein but I kind of felt like it was not as much as I had expected it to be , but maybe that's how it's supposed to be kind of taste like it's been steamed with minimum seasoning. I do however, like their seafood pan fried noodles I always ask for the noodles on the side so they stay crispy.. I've also ordered their raised beef stew one of their chef special and it was very tasty! We'll definitely come back again and again read more

I had heard a lot of great reviews about Mamak so I was looking forward to coming here. I got there with my friends on a random weekday and it was pretty empty, so we were seated quickly. The restaurant is not too spacious inside, so it can probably feel a little loud and tight if there are a lot of people dining in. I ordered the Beef Chow Ho Fun while my friends ordered the Nasi Lemak and Chef Special Stir Fried Noodles. Our dishes came out fairly quickly. I love beef chow fun because it is a dish that I often order at dim sum restaurants, so I wanted something familiar. I thought that their Beef Chow Ho Fun was just alright. It was nothing spectacular to me and I feel like I have had better beef chow fun at dim sum restaurants. I think there was a lack in flavor. However, I know that my friends really liked their dishes. I would come back and order a different dish next time to really understand the flavors of Malaysian food. read more

The seasoning was perfect - not too salty and had the perfect amount of spice. read more

One of my favorite spots on BuHi - and surprisingly never wrote a review, until now. Looking at an old draft never published - Curry Puff Pastry was $3.95, Chow Kway Teow $8.95, Haiwanese Chicken $11.95 ... definitely a long time ago! My new favorites - Lemongrass Chicken, Black Pepper Beef, and Salt & Pepper Squid. Small spot so you'll want to avoid peak times. Parking lot is not great. Health score 80 is concerning but didn't stop us from eating here. Service is friendly. LEMONGRASS CHICKEN - $18 The flavors of this dish were really out of this world - lots of bell peppers. Very good! BLACK PEPPER BEEF - $18 Also great flavors - accompanied by the same veggies - lots of bell peppers. Very good! SALT & PEPPER SQUID - $18 Portion was great - tastes like the Cantonese version. So good! MAMAK TOFU - $17 Fried tofu topped w/ minced pork in mild spicy sauce. Listed here but ordered a year ago - the gravy tastes very good w/ rice. Big tofu pieces. Good! CHOW KWAY TEOW - $15 Penang's famous wok-fried flat rice noodles w/ shrimp, squid, egg, and bean sprouts. Agree w/ the other recent reviews - disappointing, very bland. GREEN BEANS - price? Apparently they also serve green beans topped w/ the minced pork - not on the menu though. Ordered but it was also bland - my friend said it's usually very good. May try again next time. Overall great spot to visit - great menu. I'll be back to get the lemongrass chicken, black pepper beef, and you guessed it - salt & pepper squid! read more

Mamak - Menu - Malaysian Near Me - Doraville, Georgia

Food had decent flavors but minimal veg options. They also don't offer tofu that isn't fried in some dishes (I asked if I could have steamed tofu in a curry dish but it wasn't possible). The flavors were fine but I get the sense that it is made in batches and not very fresh based on how quickly the food came out and lack of modification ability. The roti canal is stellar and the veg tofu was just ok. I don't think I'd be eager to get it again read more

Solid visit at Mamak on a Tuesday evening. This restaurant had been on my list for some time, and when my cousin (whose mother is Singaporean and who has been to Singapore many times) came to visit, I knew I couldn't miss the opportunity to have him guide us on what to order. The menu can be a little overwhelming if you are not versed in the cuisine. Unfortunately, I'd had a root canal earlier that day... but fortunately, many options here for soft foods! From what was ordered from the table, I was only able to eat the satay skewers which were overcooked/tough and the preserved egg rice porridge, which I think actually soothed not only my mouth but also my soul. My cousin was very complimentary of the Hainanese Chicken which he said was better than Food Terminal but not as good as in Singapore. He and my bf also shared a noodle dish which they liked, but that could have been spicier. Inside, the restaurant is no-frills and quite small, so I can see how there would be a wait especially on the weekends. Another reviewer noted that the food came out so quickly that it made us question the freshness... but ultimately, we still enjoyed what we ate, so it doesn't really matter. The server was efficient but didn't offer much in the way of hospitality... on the contrary, she brought the bill while we were still eating, and it wasn't anywhere close to closing (nor was there a wait) which was a bit strange. Plenty of parking right out front. We definitely see ourselves ordering for takeout in the future. read more

-used to be 5 stars for me but now it's 3 :( -food quality has changed a little and I feel like it's not as good as before -two of the water glasses at the table were dirty (one had lipstick residue, the other had food debris stuck inside) and the waitress got argumentative saying that they were just water stains. she changed them but was clearly not happy about it -even the table next to us complained about the quality of the beef--was extremely dry and tough -beef in the chow ho fun was fine but they lack consistency these days -don't know if I can recommend this place anymore -if it was cheaper maybe I'd give it another chance but would not recommend it to others anymore read more

100% recommend going here coming from a local. The food was flavorful, and enjoyable as family style. We got assam and sambal shrimp which has a tangy and spicy taste to it. Assam is better than the sambal at this place! The chow kwei teow had a nice, bouncy bite to the noodles. The service was great in helping with our orders being mixed up with the wrong order of noodles. Come here if you want a mouth full of goodness. read more

I wanted desperately to have some amazing food here. Being from Singapore - this food felt like home. The chicken fried rice was fantastic , no faults there however the lor mee was bland and nothing like you would get back in Malaysia or Singapore. However I did ask for some "sambal" or hot chili paste and vinegar (note they have no black vinegar) and it improved the dish Service was fast, great - No loud music, good space between tables - I have heard good things from this place so will be back in no time to try other dishes read more

1st time at Mamak and will definitely return. Roti Canai was so good we ordered another. My favorite entree was the Black Pepper Beef. The Rendang Beef was very good and a great kick. Will try a different noodle next time. We chose the Singapore Mee Fun this time and was ok. Can't wait to return. read more

Mediocre Malaysian restaurant. Food Terminal is a much better option. Roti canai was ok but not enough sauce given and not very flavorful. Char kway teoh was fresh and decent but not enough sauce and flavor. Salt and pepper squid (sotong) was terrible. Squid pieces way too big and batter had minimal flavor. Curry puff was pretty good though read more

came to eat for 2 Roti Canai - fresh and hot, get it! curry laksa - has flavor, but could be more, to give more wow factor. Decent otherwise. noddle is fine. spare ribs were also good. about 6 pieces or so. The broth is quite light and not in a thick version. Mango chicken - fried chicken was done well. some piece with less chicken inside and more outer crust. Flavor was good, and you do taste the mango influence. tons of mango slices (would say more the less ripe mango) Dish was like a mango version of orange chicken. Has a sweet and tangy flavor. Enjoyable. Rendang beef - meaty and some potatoes and just meat. good spice and flavor, authentic. Goes well with rice. definitely need another dish to cut the taste buds. would recommend Service was straight to point. no complaints. read more

Haven't been back in ages, and the food is still amazing! The four of us scarfed down our food as if we were starving for days. It was THAT good. There wasn't a wait since we got there at the perfect time I suppose. But the location is still small, and the popularity is still there. * Sambal okra: A good portion size with good flavors. * Chow kway teow: OMG. I love noodles, and this dish was delish!!! * Hainanese chicken: Still a staple thing to get here. And it's still good. * Chef's special fish fillet: It's a tad saucy. The hubs said it was like orange chicken but in fish form. The fish was really tender and full of flavor. read more

This is still probably the best Malaysian restaurant in Atlanta. I'm never disappointment in any dish every time I come here. The restaurant always seems packed so that's a good sign. We got the sambal okra, chow kway teow, hainese chicken, and chef's special fish fillet. All four dishes were great but if I had to rank them the would go chow kway teow: Top noodle dish hainese chicken. It's tender and fresh. chef's special fish fillet. It's basically orange chicken except fish. It was sweet but not too overwhelming. sambal okra: It's not slimy or too fried. Would I come here again? Yes. I would always recommend this place over Food Terminal when it comes to Malaysian food. read more
