As a food enthusiast always on the lookout for unique and authentic culinary experiences, Amy Heritage Nyonya Cuisine was an absolute gem to discover. From the moment we stepped inside, we were greeted with warm smiles and a cozy ambiance that immediately set the stage for an incredible dining experience. Our taste buds were treated to a feast of traditional Nyonya dishes that showcased the rich heritage and vibrant flavors of Peranakan cuisine. Let me begin by raving about the Ayam Ponteh—tender chicken pieces braised to perfection in a flavorful soy-based sauce. The dish was a delightful balance of sweet and savory, with each bite showcasing the expertise of the chef. Next up, we indulged in the Kueh Pie Tee, a traditional Nyonya snack that stole our hearts. The crispy golden shells were filled with a medley of finely chopped vegetables and topped with a fragrant and slightly spicy sauce. It was a burst of textures and flavors that left us craving for more. The Tofu with Thai Sauce was another standout dish that demonstrated the restaurant's ability to infuse flavors from different culinary traditions. The tofu cubes were beautifully cooked, showcasing a crispy exterior and a silky interior. The Thai sauce added a tangy and slightly spicy kick that elevated the dish to new heights. One of the highlights of our meal was the Udang Lemak Nenas—a prawn curry cooked in a rich coconut milk and pineapple gravy. The prawns were fresh and succulent, and the combination of coconut milk and pineapple created a delightful balance of creamy and tangy flavors. It was a true representation of Nyonya cuisine at its finest. Beyond the exceptional food, the service at Amy Heritage Nyonya Cuisine was impeccable. The staff was knowledgeable, attentive, and eager to offer recommendations based on our preferences. They made us feel like honored guests, enhancing the overall dining experience. The restaurant's commitment to preserving Nyonya culinary traditions was evident in every aspect of our meal. From the meticulously crafted flavors to the attention to detail in presentation, Amy Heritage Nyonya Cuisine surpassed our expectations. If you're looking to embark on a gastronomic adventure through Nyonya cuisine, look no further than Amy Heritage Nyonya Cuisine. Their Ayam Ponteh, Kueh Pie Tee, Tofu with Thai Sauce, and Udang Lemak Nenas are just a glimpse of the treasures that await you.

Delicious wholesome food that is clearly cooked from the heart and with years and years of crafting and perfecting. It really is some of the best food you’ll taste, Nyonya or otherwise. If you don’t know what the cuisine is, just go try it and you’ll be hooked I guarantee! We both love Chinese and Indian food and Nyonya food in a way is the best of both is how I’d best describe it, with some Malay and Portuguese influences also thrown into the mix. Usually our first port of call when arriving into Malacca. We actually got off the bus yesterday and jumped into a taxi straight to Amy’s for her Chicken Curry! Loads of chicken swimming in a sauce full of flavour and spices. It’s our favorite dish but plenty other dishes to try and even the appetizers like the ‘pai tee’ are delicious and a nice way to start off is with a few of them - they are thin little pastry shells stuffed with fresh sweet vegetables. Amy always finds time for a chat and it’s so interesting to hear about how the recipes have been passed down to her, how she learnt and how she’s crafted them while maintaining the true authentic tastes. Food portions are huge (we share the medium size curry and by the time we finish it, are always full to the brim so it’s plenty for 2 people). And we’re always kept topped up by the staff with rice and iced tea too who are also equally as friendly and attentive. Have been coming to this restaurant for over 10 years now and will coming for the next 10 too. If you’re in Malacca go have your lunch or dinner there you will not be disappointed! 🤤

Visit date: 3/8/2024 The food this round impressed up more than the first visit! We were really pleased and so left with satisfied and happy tummies! The dishes tasted homey and very much like how a Nyonya family would cook them. My Nyonya mother approved the food! We ordered: - Chicken Pongteh - Ikan Gerang Assam (⭐️highly recommended!) - Kangkung Kobis Keledek Masak Titik Lemak - Taibak (maybe can skip this, not great) Rice is free flow and Chinese tea also refillable. Very good service by a polite, soft-spoken and friendly Malay guy. He literally was the only one running back and forth serving food, taking orders, cleaning tables and attending to customer requests. There are 2 other Chinese men around but seems like the Malay guy was doing most of the work. The drinks lady literally only does the drinks and desserts and even when she was free, she didn’t bother helping around at the front of the house. Best to make booking for weekends cos it’s usually full house.

Malacca is well known for Nyonya, however if you are looking for other alternatives, you shd definitely try this out. It's a lovely place. We ordered Pie Tee (MUST ORDER), recommend 2 pieces for each people, it's a starter, it's like a small popiah but in a crispy and chruncy wrap. Next is their lady finger (Okra), comes with a sweet and sour sauce that will bring you to next level. However I feel that if they replace the purple onion with brown onion, it will taste better as purple onion gives the dish a bitter taste. 3rd dish was a dry Nyonya in lemon grass chicken, fantastic dish, with the dry Nyonya gravy, I could finished the entire bowl of rice! Last dish was my favourite, prawn with pineapple green curry! The aroma and taste of this dish is heaven! The prawn were fresh and the gravy will make you go for more rice😍 Overall I'm very satisfied with this restaurant! Thumbs up!

Ordinary. Nothing really stood out. Don't get the hype. Pretty annoyed that they gave our table to another customer when we had already made reservation. We arrived 2-3mins after the scheduled time. But clearly they gave the table away before that as we could tell by the way customer was already seated n done w order. Would appreciate a phone call or perhaps they could've waited just a tad bit longer. Titik lemak (18myr) was somewhat unique, can try. Although the ayam goreng (16myr) was done pretty well, with the right texture n all, but it was completely tasteless. Ayam Pongteh (23myr) was soso; had better ones elsewhere. Nothing to comment on the Toufu Asam Manis (15myr). Cendol (6myr each) was also very average. Bill came up to 81.50myr for what we ordered. See photo.

I came here during the recent Raya Aidilfitri holidays, in search of asam pedas and since this is a Peranakan (Nyonya) restaurant, my chances are pretty good. I ordered 2 dishes, the gerang asam ikan (another version of asam pedas) and udang masak lemak with nenas. I had a shock at the total amount--RM102! Although the dishes tasted nice but seriously? RM50 for 6-7 medium prawns, RM52 for a medium slice of fish? Totally NOT WORTH IT. My take home message: DO NOT COME HERE especially during the holidays when most other restaurants are closed. Unless you don't mind paying for overpriced food. And last but not least, the service was far from hospitable. Why was I unceremoniously escorted outside BEFORE I could order? Don't like the way I dressed, is it? Smh..
