Rainforest Malaysian Kitchen — Restaurant in Hamilton

The girl who served us was good and friendly. Knew the menu well. It's definitely pricey for the portion sizes, but if the food is good, you don't mind the prices being on the higher end.

Malaysians - be aware. This isn't your Malaysian restaurant. It's a bit bland and tasteless. Also, it's not spicy despite asking for our meals to be made hot. It's disappointing when you get curry powder/baba masala in your mee goreng.

Reply - Dropped the review from 2 to 1 because of the unprofessional response.

I'm not sure which part of Malaysia you're from, mate. Never have I had curry powder on top of mee goreng 😅.

Furthermore, when someone checks the table, do you expect us to send our dishes back and say, "Nope, don't like it. Send the plates back and leave?" She was a young girl doing her job and possibly the only positive thing going for you.

Regards to "gobbling back food," it was the first meal we had for the day. It should have, in fact, been quite easy to please the tastebuds, but it didn't.

Your attitude and unprofessionalism in your response are both shown...

We went there for Sunday lunch with friends and ordered a mix of entrées and mains. The entrées weren’t particularly special, but they were tasty. The mains had unique flavors, not the usual ones you’d find everywhere, and we really enjoyed them. The highlight was definitely the mie goreng – the prawns were impressively large, fresh, and plentiful, leaving us all feeling full. My friends also enjoyed their meals.

Parking is free within the food complex, though the closer spots are limited to 15 or 60 minutes. We parked a little farther away where there was no time restriction, which was still convenient.

There was only one staff member serving the floor, but she was friendly and handled everything well. It seemed there might have been just one person in the kitchen too, so the food came out at slightly different times. By the time some of us got our dishes, others were nearly finished, which was the only downside.

Overall, the food was delicious, the service was kind, and I’d be happy to...

I had a wonderful dinner at Rainforest Malaysian Kitchen. I ordered the nasi lemak with fried chicken, and it was amazing. The coconut flavor was on point, and the fried chicken was tender and crispy. The sambal sauce was spicy and sweet, and the anchovies and peanuts added a nice crunch. My partner ordered the laksa, and it was so flavorful and full of spices. The broth was thick and satisfying, and the noodles were cooked perfectly. The chicken, tofu, and bean sprouts were fresh and tasty. We also ordered the chicken satay and peanut sauce, which brought me back to Malaysia. The chicken was so flavorful and moist, and the peanut sauce was creamy and nutty. The service was attentive and courteous, and the restaurant was warm and inviting. Rainforest Malaysian Kitchen is a must-try for anyone who loves authentic...
