    Great food. Friendly and efficient service. Small dining area that's great for small groups. Chill vibe. Family run business. We ordered many dishes and unfortunately forgot to take picture of everything but nothing was disappointing. Everything was delicious! Multiple paid parking lots nearby.

    Fried tofu

    I found this no frills restaurant while we were on our way to another restaurant in the area. The restaurant is small and only have 1 staff when we came in for lunch on a Monday. We ordered the fried tofu appetizer which came with fresh veggies. Flavor was great. We ordered the chicken curry and the hor fun noodles. Curry was ok and I wouldn't recommend the hor fun as it was pretty bland. The chicken rice was flavor full.

    Kueh and sambal

    There are ice kacang and Chendol here! Plus home made sambal and kaya for sale. A great addition to the food scene in Steveston. This place has better food than the other Malaysian restaurant in the area. A smaller menu but has some of the favorites. Even though it's called Nyonya, the dishes are not really Peranakan here. The dishes are more of the noodle soup (curry Mee, prawn Mee and Assam laksa) and bak Kut teh. The rice dishes are Hainanese chicken rice and Nasi lemak with rendang (beef and lamb) or curry (chicken or pork ribs). And you can't leave out the roti and satay. I like you can get food not commonly available like the shrimp roll (hae chor, a teochew dish) and fruit rojak. We had the chicken curry Mee, prawn Mee soup (penang style with a bit of spice in the soup), cassava cake and wanton Mee with char siu. Everything was good though I'm not sure if the wontons are house made. It's all shrimp and tasted like CP frozen wontons. I notice they don't have dishes which require wok hei cooking so none of the char kway teow, nasi or Mee goreng or hor fun dishes are on the menu. The only downside is the limited tables (4-5) for 4 people and the long wait for food and any extras. It's still only a mom and pop operation with the husband cooking and wife running the front of house. Bring lots of patience and don't be hungry when coming here. P.S. I appreciate they include the pickled green chili for the wonton Mee which is common in Malaysia. And they didn't charge me for cut red chili in soy sauce which is also a common condiment for any dishes in Malaysia. It just took a long time to arrive.

    Shrimp Roll .. crispy & very flavourful!

    Friendly Warning : Be ready to wait for table and food as the restaurant is still very new ( with limited staffing .. husband & wife only ) and is already receiving overwhelming attention from locals and visitors alike!! Brand new entry into the Historic Stevenston Village ... this Mom & Pop Southeast Asia .. Malaysian restaurant is truly a Gem to be discovered! Highlighted items from my visit: - Roti Canai .. very light and not greasy at all, the curry dipping sauce is "Gold"! - Shrimp Roll .. crispy tofu skin wrapping shrimp mousse with a touch of 5 spices, very authentic great as a starter!! - Prawn Kee Soup .. this is a Malaysian speciality, with broth made from shrimp shell and other ingredients! Chef's skill in this dish shows his love of his craft as the broth is both deep and very flavourful with a touch of spiciness! With all the ingredients on-point, this is a rare find in Vancouver! Will be back to savour their other creations!! Best wishes to this lovely family for their new venture in Richmond, BC!!

    4th time eating here and I've never had a dish here i didn't love. Everything is so flavorful here!! I LOVE the taro ring dishes cause it's unique and don't see that anywhere else I get it with the rendeng beef usually. Such a cute mom n pop neighbourhood gem

    I am from Singapore so I know good Malaysian food when I taste it. First of all, adorable girl greets you though she has a "on strike" poster on her table . Her parents are the chefs and wait staff - truly a family small business! I was impressed by the amount of items on the menu. Everything from char hor fan, Chendol, cassava dessert, bak ku teh, lamb rendung ... along with expected staples like laksa and hainanese chicken rice. We ordered lamb rendung and chicken rice. I liked both and found it pretty authentic, even though we asked for mild spice. The lamb was fresh and in general they were very generous on coconut. I saw someone order chendol and it looked amazing. I am excited to go back to the other dishes. I am quite sad it's so far in steveston but the chef definitely has talent. Go try it!

    Great family run Malaysian food place at Steveston pier. Great atmosphere and really kind staffs. The food is made with care and each item was made to order. Can taste the home-cooking of the food and food felt clean and healthy. Definitely check out this place if you are on the pier!

    Tried this place for dinner. Cozy small restaurant, comfortable and clean enough. Its a casual…read moreplace and service was as you'd expect. Friendly and quick. We tried: Nasi Lemak rendang lamb - one of my fav dishes at malaysian places. The coconut rice was excellent. Came with the usual fried sardines and peanuts - no surprises here. The sambal was not spicy at all which was disappointing. The rendang lamb was sadly dry. The sauce was not bad but not spiced enough. The meat was just too dry. 3/5. Assam Laksa - pretty rare to find this dish at Malaysian places in town. Sadly this one is disappointing. I suspect they dont sell much of this. They use canned sardines and canned pineapple. The broth didnt have any depth of flavour and lacked the deep umami and funk I expected from a good bowl of this. This is at best, a rough approximation of this dish. There are better versions in town, but truthfully I have yet to find one anywhere near the quality I had in Malaysia. 2/5. Char Kway Teow - excellent. Beautiful char and "wok hei" and noodles maintained a great texture. They do use regular chinese ho-fun that is abundant around here rather than the wider versions, for those who care. I wish they gave more fish cake slices though. Only 2-3 in the entire dish but lots of lap cheong and shrimp. One of the better versions of this dish Ive had in town. 4.5/5. Sambal Kang Kong - also excellent. Nice cook on the veg and char flavour. Also comes out in a sizzling iron pot which im sure helps. I just wish they added more fermented shrimp paste and more chilis. 4.5/5. Satay - beef and chicken. Not bad. Had a bit of char from the grill and meat was cooked nicely. I wish they were smokier. peanut sauce was good. 4/5. Dessert - taro pandan layer cake - pretty good. nice texture, strong on the pandan and coconut but could not taste the taro. 3.5/5. Its in a little strip mall with only a few parking spots but there is free street parking around. Overall, they seem to excel at dishes using a wok. I would come back, and would like to try some other classics. Their menu is huge; not sure if that's a good thing or not yet.

    Love this place! Wondering where have I been the last dozens of visits to Vancouver? The owners…read morewere busy but took time to chat with us. Super nice family owned business originally from Ipoh, Malaysia known for good food. Ambiance is quaint with lots of pictures and references to Malaysia. We had amazing food and below are a few highlights. We look forward to be back for sure! Kam heong clams- so delicious and a must-order!Reminds me of the real taste of Malaysian food. The heat from the spice, curry leaves and work hey was the best I've had in Washington and BC. Taro ring- so crispy and satiating. The taro is very flavorful and a great combination with the squid, shrimp and other savory goodies in the middle of the taro ring. Asam laksa- Penang style chewy noodle soup in super savory and umami fish broth with tamarind, pineapple and shrimp paste. Such a beautiful balance of slightly spicy, sour, and sweet broth. Yum!
