Malaysian Garam Masala

Best place to have fried rice and noodles.. Me and my husband love visiting this place atleast twice in a month.

Can't go wrong with this spot on a late night. It hits the spot. Generous portions with fair value. Anna has been killing it for 17 years! Highly recommend!

At first glance the place has little lighting inside and looks unattractive. But they provide very good service and generous food portion size to customers. You can get more than enough portion from low price I ordered a fried rice takeout and the food is about 2.5 to 3 times the portion shown in the picture. Never been to Malaysia so I can't say much about authenticity of taste but it tastes quite like South Asian style. One small thing I don't really like is they mainly use unsustainable packaging for takeout, but It's overall a good experience

Would return and would recommend their curry, want to return and try their fried rice and chilli chicken. We had the Curry Mutton and Chicken Kothu Roti Service was excellent! The chef in the back was impressive! The Curry was legit (not from a can or form powder curry). The flavours were intense, the mutton flavour was strong! It was a bit too much for my GF but she recognized and appreciated the authenticity of intense flavour curry. The Chicken Kothu Roti had good “wok hay”, eventhing nicely browned and coated with stir-fry flavour. Price was extremely reasonable. $15pp before tip (2 dishes and 2 orders of roti)

Small restaurant but excellent food. Went there late night on NYE. Was a little sceptical but the sweet lady at the restaurant made us feel warm and at home. We ordered Johnny wrap..mutton curry with parotha..chicken murtabak.. chicken kothu..chilli chicken kothu and mutton roll. Everything was delicious especially the mutton curry. A must visit in Scarborough.

As a Singaporean, I first doubted the authenticity of the neighbouring Malaysian cuisine served here, due to the dubious naming of the restaurant and the extremely “diverse” options on the menu. However, after learning that the owner is indeed a Malaysian himself, I knew I had to give them a chance. To test it out, I went ahead with the Roti Canai/Prata option, along with a side of chicken curry (default combo back home). I was surprised that at a price of $3 (Egg) + $1.50 (Plain) + $2.50 for curry, I did get taken back home with the very authentic crispiness, slight flakiness and flavoursome curry burst in my mouth. With the dimly lit interior and slightly outdated furniture stacked inside, the sight of the eatery might not be aesthetically pleasing to many but don’t let that fool you from the food that is served here. Dining-in is not an option at the moment, so I got to take-out with some disposable plates provided by the friendly lady who took my order and handled the cashier. Nevertheless, the strong stench that I suspect to be coming from the adjacent fish & meat store, can be extremely overpowering. It’s such a pity that the restaurant has to face the end of the strong stench, despite them serving some aromatic flavoursome food. I will definitely return to try their Mee Goreng and other Malaysian dishes in the near future, when I am in the area. I strongly hope that the issue of the stench gets fixed and dining in becomes an option by then, the latter being my only reason for not giving it 5 starts.

Food is pretty good. Reasonably priced. The front entrance looks pretty ghetto as it's not very clean and frankly don't open wide enough. Going inside, the lights are a bit dim. Foodwise, it's pretty good and has some unique flavors. The chef I'm told is Malaysian, the cashier who's also a helper seems Filipino. The mee goeng noodles are pretty good. Quite flavourful. The mutton curry portions are quite good.. a little gamey but ok. The chicken pakora is ok too.. though the chicken pieces varied in size. Price to portions to flavors, it's not bad.

Love this place. Fantastic, fresh food at probably the most reasonable price. Please don’t expect chicken to be cooked to perfection at 165 degrees, it’s a cheap, fast eatery so evaluate it at that standard. What’s important is that the two key people the older gentleman and the asian lady are very friendly and hard working and put passion into the food. I can’t recommend this place enough.
