It's great for non vegetarians but it is terrible for vegetarians. Their "vegetarian options" have shrimp paste in them

Totally enjoyed our Chinese New Year celebration here with lots of great southeast Asian Chinese dishes. Our favorite was lo hay, a special fun salad that is only served during New Years.

I ordered the laksa, which was perfectly flavored and delicious. It also tasted freshly made. The service wasn't that friendly, and it sounded like 2 of the staff were arguing in the middle of the restaurant. @goodforjo

I had a nice experience here with good food, but I also had Malaysian friends with me to ease the service and fill our table with wonderful food. The roti canai was just okay, but the curry was good. We loved the marmite pork and the water grass and the tofu sizzle platter! It was peaceful on a Saturday morning, but it was filling up quickly by early afternoon.

We arrived at the restaurant 20 mins before they were about to close and they glady took us. We ordered the roti canai, qui tao, shrimp sambal and chicken satay. Everything was delicious and quickly prepared. The roti was soft and flaky unlike others I have tried! The staff was very friendly and told us not too rush even though they were closing. I would definitely recommend this restaurant to anyone who likes Malaysian cuisine!

OMG! this place is so good. I've had most of the malaysians food in NYC. this place is the best hands down no contest. The curry is so good is ridiculous. This place has been around for many years. I love the pickled jalapenos they have. I had the curry combo. show them the photo if you can find it on the menu. the price is right the portions are good. I had to take out mines. couldn't finish it. Just go try it after you finish reading this. the place is small and little worn down. but yall know the best food is always in the small little smelly places. lol... go get some now. don't even ask me anything.. just go get some

Has some nice unique suite of authentic dishes prepared quite well that may be hard to find elsewhere. Average dishes is ~<$10. Portions could be a bit bigger and this is slightly bigger than a hole-in-the-wall (but expect that decor), but overall I'd definitely come back.

Small busy but easy to miss Malaysian restaurant that serves laksa noodles, among other things. Pretty good food for the price. Nice to stop in for a bowl of noodles. The roti canai was thicker but smaller in circumference than other places that I've been to (I prefer the thinner kind). It was fresh and hot off the grill though so still very good. The curry sauce that came with it I felt was better than other places. The popiah was kinda meh. Would definitely stop in again to try other dishes. Cash only.

A true gem for delicious and inexpensive Malaysian food. I will always order their roti canai and hainanese chicken (leg) over rice. The roti is very fluffy and the laksa was not too spicy yet still flavorful. Their chicken is perfect: the skin is gello like and the meat is tender and juicy. You can either eat it with the sweet soysauce or dip it in the sweet and spicy hot sauce. Layer that over a pile of chicken stock rice and eat it all in one bite! The chicken over rice also comes with chick stock and it is light in texture but rich in chicken flavor. Enjoy that with the rice and chicken makes it a really satisfying combo. Most food over here is under 10 bucks a dish so it's really affordable and the service is speedy. It's a block away from the Elmhurst train station and I really recommend this place!

Good, relatively cheap food, and plenty of options for the whole family. You can have it family style with many plates to share or individual dishes for yourself. It is cash only so come prepared. The service is fast, the food is delicious, and the prices are decent. Parking is hard here so try to come by train. Hopefully they don't get anywhere since all the lots around there are getting built up into condos.

The place is quite cramped, but decent service. No AC so if it’s hot outside, it gets really hot inside. Food is pretty good although I prefer the lighter softer type of roti that they serve for the appetizer. The stir fry guo tiu and other noodles were fantastic. The hainan chicken was not so great. Not bad but not great. The salted cod fried rice is pretty good as well.

Awesome authentic Malaysian food. I'm relatively new to Malaysian food but everything we ordered based on recommendations has been fantastic.The restaurant is not much to look at but their food is really amazing. Like many local small asian restaurants this place is cash only so be prepared when you visit. I don't believe they have an ATM inside but it's right by Elmhurst Ave subway stop so probably many other places for ATM.Prices are very competitive too among the many local restaurants you'll find in the area.

I used to work for a Malaysian boss as a teen in Downtown Manhattan. She used to ordered Malaysian cuisines for us. Since then, Malaysian foods was a big deal for as to my fav Espana Tapas. Taste Good Malaysian restaurant make the mark. Authentic and budget friendly. Came here with my mom today for lunch, it was packed, but somehow they found seat for us. Service was quick, friendly services, but make sure you bring cash. No cards accepted. Give it a shot, really good!

Oh my where to begin! This is one of those "hidden gems" of Queens. Located near a very busy road going to Broadway and right beside an Asian supermarket, you hardly get to notice this restaurant. Let me just say this. All the food here tastes AMAZING. You will never go wrong with what to pick. They also have photos of the different food on their walls so if you do not know any Malaysian food, you are not lost. Service wise was pretty snappy. The server was nice and accommodating. Good ventilation, even though it's a hot summer day. Get the beef rendang and the nasi lemak. Their roti tastes great too. Get everything! Haha. Price is also cheap. All stars here, believe me.

ABYSMAL service. I gave a what would be considered a generous tip in cash. On my way out, the waiter came and pointed to the tip and said "NOT ENOUGH". My family and I were appalled. I think he did this because my wife was Caucasian and he thought he could get a bigger tip from English-speaking folks. (It's never happened when I go out with only Chinese people.) I left the tip as it was, but I should have given NOTHING. This level of service is completely unacceptable. I will never go to this place again, and neither should anyone who wants even average service. The food is unremarkable and you can do much better in Flushing.

This place used to be great! Food is good/ok. But this time, my server wasn't very nice. In fact, he kind of forgot about us for a while: We didn't get the rice we ordered until the end of the meal. I'm Chinese, so when I order rice, I'd like to eat it with my meal, not separately at the end of the meal as if it's some kind of dessert. And I most definitely do not want to pay for that rice.When we stood up to the front counter to take care of our bill, he charged us for the rice. I'm kind of dismayed at it, but I kind of give up and don't want to argue for the $1.75. But then he had the audacity to request more tip. I used to be a loyal customer, but I'm not so sure about this place anymore. Sorry, Taste Good. If you forget about my table, that's fine. But you don't also get to demand a very generous tip at the end of the night.
