This gem of a place has it all. The ambience/table setting/decorations match what you will get in terms of food and service, which is superb. Before eating it felt like it would be a good experience with great value (not being over the top on price while having great food quality). As it turned out the dishes had wonderful and different flavours. Our party had never had Malaysian food before. We particularly liked the Bebek Menyatnyat (duck) and Nasi Goreng Kampung (fried rice) and Nyonya Kari Laksa (soup I would say is like a cross between pho/ramen/curry - but better than them all). We also loved the Sate Ayam (chicken skewers) however we were recommended an appetizer platter which served them and 3 other things. I would not get that mixed platter again but instead just the chicken because only the chicken was impressive to me. The other items reminded me of frozen aisle oven pastry food with a low filling content to outer pastry shell. Also the flavours didn’t hit at all with me. I won’t take away points for those items because I don’t know how authentic they are. The other dish we had which I would not get again is Kari Udang. The reason is it was too spicy or rather had a lingering spice which none of us particularly enjoyed. It did say 2 peppers of spice on the menu so beware. However, interestingly enough the Laksa had 2 peppers as well and did have a hot spice to it but it also dissipated well and was enjoyable. Overall the place offers an experience of special and different flavours and if you are up for trying spicy food it also has many options for...
Read moreLocated on Calle de Alcalá, Restaurant Malaysia brings authentic Malaysian flavors to Madrid. The cozy, vibrant decor and Southeast Asian-inspired ambiance immediately make you feel welcome. Their menu includes Malaysian favorites like Nasi Goreng, Laksa, and the standout Rendang Beef, which is tender and full of rich, aromatic spices. The Char Kway Teow was another hit, offering a smoky, authentic flavor that spice lovers will appreciate. Don’t miss the traditional Teh Tarik (pulled tea) and Cendol for dessert.
The staff is friendly, knowledgeable, and happy to explain dishes if you’re new to Malaysian cuisine. Service is prompt, and they’re very accommodating with dietary requests, which adds to the warm experience.
Prices are fair, especially given the portion sizes and quality of ingredients, making this a great spot for an affordable culinary adventure. Whether for a casual meal or a small gathering, Restaurant Malaysia is an exciting find in Madrid, offering a genuine taste of Malaysia. Highly...
Read moreDe lo más exótico que habrá en Madrid: Restaurante de Malasia.
Me encanta probar cocinas nuevas. En esta ocasión fuimos en Metro a Malasia, línea 5, metro Suanzes por 26€ + bebida.
El menú degustación incluye 6 entrantes + 4 principales + 2 postres mínimo 2 personas, bebidas a parte. También tienen menú del día por 13,90€ y menú fin de semana por 22,90€ o carta.
La cocina malaya me recordó a la tailandesa, china e india. Un híbrido muy interesante. No será la última vez que vuelva a Malaysia. Pero espero que el servicio sea más rápido que mi primera vez. Más de 40 minutos esperando a que nos trajeran los entrantes, luego vino todo de golpe… Se veía que hacía falta más camareros.
Entrantes: Lumpia sayur: 2 rollitos de primavera. Muy buenos. Wantan goreng: 2 wonton de gamba frita. Muy sin más, media gamba y mucho frito. Sate ayam: 4 brochetas de pollo a la plancha. Buenísimas y la salsa de cacahuete casera super sabrosa. Samosa sayur: empanadilla rellena de patata, guisantes. Nos gustó mucho, se notaba que era casera. Roti canai: pan malayo con salsa de curry. Picaba pero nos gustó. Green salad: cacahuetes, mango, lechuga, tomate y cebolla. Al mango le faltaba madurar, al principio pensaba que era manzana... Nos sobraba este plato aunque nos vino bien para rebajar el picante del Roti canai. No tenía gracia.
Principales: Kari daging: tenera al curry rojo picante. Bueno. Bebek menyanyant: pato crujiente con salsa especial. Lo mejor de la comida. Buenísimo!!! Volvería solo para volver a comerlo. Está con suplemento +1,5€ en su menú del día. Acar awak: verduras agripicantes: piña, col, cacahuete. Nos encantó! Unos sabores que nunca antes habíamos probado. Muy recomendable. Kung pao udang: langostinos con salsa de soja espesa. Pasó bastante desapercibido al comer primero los otros platos picantes. Me recordó a la cocina china. Sabor conocido. Nasi jasmine: arroz jasmín.
Postre: Mango y lichi con helado de vainilla y tapioca. Bastante interesante, me recordó a mi merienda en Taroquísimo. Brownie con helado de vainilla. Sorprendentemente bueno, no se si sería casero pero estaba muy rico. Respecto al helado, no me gusta la vainilla.
Me gustó mucho Malaysia. Voy a repetir. Eso sí, para reservar no intentéis llamar por teléfono, lo intenté 5 veces y nada (a distintas horas). Os recomiendo que os metáis en su web y desde ahí solicitéis la reserva. Os...
