J. B.

Great place to get takeaways. I was pleasantly surprised at how tasty the food was. I've tried a lot of places but I would have to say the fried rice and mee groeng was the best I've had so far. Simple and delicious. The only reason I didn't give 5 stars is portion size is smaller when compared to other Chinese restaurants, but overall good food and service. Parking can be difficult to find in front of the shop especially on weekends, best to park off street and walk to the restaurant.

Went there for the first time ... The Laksa was delicious , probably needed a little more filling , like vegs or chick or tofu to bulk it up a little more ...but other it was really nice . The other was the rice noodles , the portion was a little small , but it was still nice . Lastly the curry chicken , portion was good , probably would of been much better if there was a bit more sauce , or maybe have a small container for the curry sauce separately , so the rice doesn't absorb it all , as it tasted a bit dry by the time I got home . As I only live 10 mins away ... Price is well priced . But... Personally my suggestion would be , I rather pay a little more per dish , like $15 or something and have a slightly bigger portion or more filling , rather than $13.80 but with smaller portion and less filling . This is just my personal suggestion , depending on what your marketing target audience is .. as if you are price driven , then keep it the way it is , as I know there's only so much you can do with your current price and all your overheads.. I rather pay a little more for a bigger portion . Anyway , food was great . Would go back again , especially for the laksa .

After eating at various 'western' diners the first 2 days in Manukau, we were craving for some flavors of home (ok Malaysia is not my home but the food is close enough). Finally found this diner thru Google maps. First time here I ordered the Malay Curry Beef Brisket Rice and Malaysian Wat Dan Hor. The curry beef in particular was amazing. Wife was gushing over the Hor Fun saying it's better than any zichar Hor Fun she had eaten in Singapore. Oh and the owner also served us hot Chinese tea which "saved our lives" on that frigid day. First time eating such legit Malaysian dishes in Auckland. We came back here the next day and tried the Char Kway Teow and Rendang Chicken on Rice. Both were awesome as expected. Will definitely come back again if I ever come back to Manukau.

I often visit my parents in Auckland, dad knows a lot of good Malaysian food spots in Auckland. He took me to this one and said hands down best char kuey teow in Auckland. Food was great, even had a bit of my mums chicken rice! The chili they use there definitely has a kick so be wary! Overall a quite satisfying meal before heading off to the airport. Highly recommended

J. K.

I go there for lunch every 2 weeks or so. The Curry puffs are the best I've ever had, including Thailand, Malaysia, and Singapore. Favourite meal is char kway teow and laksa.

K. (.

If you ever feel like a Decent Curry Laksa - This is the place to go... Amazing owners who go out of their way to make sure you have left feeling fed, or over packed the quantities you've ordered for take away... Love this place....!!!

M. T.

Came here for dinner after reading some positive reviews. The taste is close to what you can get in Malaysia. The cook and the lady were busy when I was there. One has to be patient.

B. B.

Had char-Kueh-teow, spicy n non spicy. Spicy was too spicy for me. Fish head noodles had no fish head!! Taste average. Better than none!

D.

Had the Mee Goreng, asked for very spicy in Mandarin, was medium but the taste was great they refilled my water and had a good waiter (not normal for Chinese/Malaysian restaurants. Will go back.

Y.

Vegetarian friendly! My diet requirements are no meat, no egg, no onion, garlic, chives. They have many options of food to cater my requirements, ie noodles, roti, rice, curry etc. Customer service is good too! It is a small and busy Maylaysian restaurant. Good choice for a quick meal stay, especially for those who look for vegetarian meals in Manukau area.

D.

Large portion and very delicious. Some vegetarian/vegan options.

B. U.

I had tried one of their mee goreng and it was really nice. It was quite different from other places since it had a distinct sambal flavour in the noodles. The shop is a small area across the road from Rainbows End. There are other stores and restaurants around too and this one looks to be the smallest. They have a few tables inside. The menu looks interesting and would be keen to try more when I'm in the area, particularly the sago.

R. S.

I Googled Laksa and found this place based on that search. Thought I would check it out. There is no public toilet and the extraction fans are poor meaning the doors have to stay open or you will get smoked out, which is horrible on a cold day because you will freeze. Thats how we felt on our visit. The seafood Laksa tasted good but I felt a bit cheated as there was hardly any seafood in it and no Egg which is what im used to in a good seafood Laksa. No large prawns either. I think three stars is fair all considering.

K. C.

Went in today, had 星洲炒米 n 咕姥肉。 Very yummy. Good price. Taste really between Chinese food n Malaysia food. Will definitely come again. We also bought a 糭， it taste like home! N especially appreciated and love the hot tea they bring you once you seated. (Not cold water) This is so Asian... feels like home again. Thank you so much.

M. R.

I had the Chicken Curry Laksa. Taste was great and expected. Luckily I had some limes at home to give it that extra kick. Nicely presented place. Getting a parking was a difficult with it being close to a lot of other popular shops. Will be back for sure.

C. L.

Their Malaysian Kumpong Fried Rice is recommended. It comes with anchovies and you can request for additional egg on top of your fried rice. It really reminds me of home. 👍

G. B.

This place is a hidden Gem and I was lucky to stumble across it 6 months ago. It is extremely well priced and I go there at least once a week. I have tried nearly everything on the menu without disappointment. The decor could be improved on and the owner could smile a bit more, but food is full of flavour and you will not leave hungry.

A. K.

Absolutely the best food ever and service amazing. Got a glass of cold water before order came out. Also they had an A food grade rating so felt good abour the dining choice. Used to go to noodle canteen whom I love dearly but i think I will be coming back to yummy kitchen again for sure. Oh by the way i came all the way from Riverhead for this place so that means this review should be taken seriously. Now i am planning my next visit can't wait. Thank you yummy kitchen meitaki

M. L.

Great variety and selection of Malaysian dishes (even for vegetarian). Quality is consistent. Price is reasonable as well. Owners are very generous with serving, even when we asked for more chilli. Their nasi lemak chilli is homemade. Delicious.

R. S.

Brisket curry with rice was nice and flavourful bbq pork wonton with noodles was also very good. Overall excellent service was great very friendly and we got a nice complimentary glass of cold water each, Very nice especially in the summer.

S. G.

Indeed YUMMY! Big portions as well! My husband and I ordered Nasi Lemak, Mee Goreng and Chicken Laksa, and everything is just authentic! Their Nasi Lemak needs more sides (dried fish, peanuts and sambal) other than that it’s all good. Can’t wait for our next visit and will order the Hainanese Chicken, repeat order Laksa and mee goreng ❤️ Staff are smiling and nice to us.

A. B.

Ordered the pork dumplings tonight for dinner ,and its was delicious. Also got the beef fried rice that was top taste too. Would come back for more

P. D.

Good food for a good price. If you're Malaysian you will like this place especially when the chef is from Ipoh. The wait here can be a while hence the 4. But otherwise friendly service and good food. Highly recommend.

V. C.

Quite good. I have tried Hokkien Mee without lard and is ok. Tried the Chay Kueh Teow mix noodles, the noodles a bit hard. Also tried Hainanese Chicken rice, it's a bit over the average but not yet comes to the best. The sago gula Melaka is great.

J. P.

R. A.

P.

This is an under-rated little gem of a restaurant. It is nothing flash and lacking in decor, but the food is top-notch, super cheap with large portions. Service is fast and I never regret stopping by.

B. M.

A very friendly couple run this place. Huge variety. About $12 for most dishes. We had the Kway Teow and Veg Laksa. Both delicious with fresh ingredients. Highly recommended

A. L.

The fish noodle lacks fish pieces and pickled vegs but the noodles overpowered as its too much

R. S.

Quality authentic Malaysian delicacies at a very reasonable price. Curry noodles and mee goreng (Malaysian style fried noodles) are 2 must try dishes.

(Translated) Every time you come, you must order Hainanese chicken rice. The tender chicken is served with a slightly sour hot sauce and another bite of chicken soup rice. Perfect! The lard residue in the stir-fried pho is also a plus! Highly recommended good taste! (Original) 每次来都必点海南鸡饭，软嫩的鸡肉，配上微酸的辣酱再来一口鸡汤饭，完美！炒河粉里的猪油渣也很加分！强烈推荐的好味道！

(Translated) The boss and the proprietress are very humane. The cooking is delicious and the vegetarian menu is also delicious. The vegetarian food in this photo is eggplant tofu rice. Working in the southern district, I will definitely go to yummy kitchen to pack lunch. (Original) 老板和老板娘都很有人情味 煮的东西好吃 还有素食的menu 也煮的好好吃 这照片的素食是 茄子豆腐饭 在南区上班 肯定会去yummy kitchen 打包午餐

(Translated) It’s good to cook! But the kitchen is inside, I haven’t handled the exhaust, and the whole fume can’t stand it! (Original) 煮的是不錯! 但廚房在裡面，沒處理好排煙，整間油煙很受不了！
