Fantastic Malaysian Chinese restaurant, especially the deep fried Mango Barramundi and the Jumbo King Prawns with tang hoon. Great Malaysian and Thai food and host owner Francis will sure to take care of you. One of best curry laksa in Melbourne. The Ox tail soup is fantastic and flavorsome and tender. The rendang is also tops with generous portions and tender meat. The that mango prawn salad is also great with healthy greens and juicy prawns. Highly recommend these dishes and pricing is great too. One of top asian restaurants in Melbourne. The pork hock trotters was nicely cooked and tender, the prawns was spicy and full of flavour, the chicken ribs in tamarind sauce was delightful and sweet too. The moochi dessert is to die for and a definite must try. Prices are reasonable and atmosphere and setting was great. Sure to be back.

The place looks quite old and the menu is mix of all South East Asian countries. Tried their basil fried rice, tamarind chicken, char kuew teoy & greens with black fungus & spring rolls. Basil fried rice was nothing special, can’t say I tasted much basil in it. Tamarind chicken was quite sweet, not what I was expecting, also took forever for that dish to come out. We pretty much finished eating everything else by the time the chicken came out. Char kuew teoy was the best dish that day, very tasty and big pieces of eggs. The greens are mild tasting, but I wish there are more black fungus. I think there were only like 5 pieces of it, so very scarce for the amount of the greens. Spring rolls were ok. The owner is very chatty & likes to tell you stories. Overall was rather disappointed with most of the dishes.

Refined cooking of South East Asian dishes and old school hospitality is what you will find here. The dishes are cooked with care using the freshest ingredients. The go to dishes are the Crab Paste Fried Rice that comes fragrant and perfectly cooked with wok hei! The Mekong Chilli Prawns comes lightly battered coated with a dried chilli paste that's both fragrant and aromatic. You will also find an interesting selection of desserts on offer here too far beyond your standard suburban Asian restaurant. Top this off with the service of Francis who is as experienced as it gets with his quirky sense of humour and warm hospitality. You will be surprised at all levels with this restaurant.

Came here for lunch at 12pm on Friday and was pleasantly greeted by a very friendly man, who I think is the owner. Place wasn't packed then, only one table occupied but within 30 mins the place filled up. We ordered the tom yum noodle and bun bo hue, also Vietnamese ice coffee. We really enjoyed our meal, soup was delicious and hot, noodles were soft yet bouncy, ice coffee was strong and sweet. The spice was just the right kick although menu shows two chillies. The owner took the time to explain the dishes to me when I asked how to pronounce them. Very nice friendly guy! I certainly will be back, this restaurant ticked all the right boxes.

I have been coming to this place for lunch take-out. I tried different Malaysian foods and was happy with the taste. Curry was quite thick for me to enjoy it and it wasn't that salty which was great. Basil in the fried rice needs some work to make it tastier. Overall it was such a good experience for me. The price is also competitive compared to other Malaysian restaurants. I would definitely come back again for other meals. The owner and staff are also friendly. The good thing is that we are able to customize to suit our taste 🙂. Requested chilli cut as well without any issues.

We went through many google searches for south Asian restaurants and we tried this one for the first time. Not restaurant is easy to find with lots of car park space at the back of the restaurant (near the train station) and we ordered the Rare Beef Pho, Pineapple fried rice and the chicken. (With coconut drink) All the dishes were nicely cooked to right portion for family and taste just right for everyone. Recommend to try with very decent price and good value for money. The owner is friendly and he offered very good service for us. It was a pleasant sunny lunch there.
