    Such a great place ! Food is absolutely delicious, and always consistent. Been here a few times now, and never been disappointed. The curries are perfect, so much flavour and spice. The roti is amazing! Being able to order from a QR-code and pay at the same time is a great new way of service. Highly recommend this place

    Authentic food and very much a guilty pleasure. The food is pretty much exactly what you'd want from an Asian canteen / casual restaurant that serves Malaysian food. The curry is somewhat mild and thin compared to other cuisines such as Indian or Japanese curries, which means that you definitely want rice to go with them. The meats were delicious and fresh, and I find that in general they are great value. I also tried the fish curry which was very generous in the portion of fish and I would say probably the best curry I've had at Mamak. Dessert cone is very interesting if you don't mind getting your hands a bit sticky.

    Delicous Malaysian cuisine, the is a little bit dark inside, and can get packed during lunch.

    Decent Malaysian food. These guys have been around for a while. I wouldn't say their food tastes amazing, but it's better than average and the quality has been consistent for years. Good enough to settle any cravings if perhaps they're the most reasonable offer that does delivery through Uber Eats at the time of ordering for instance.

    A really cheap and delicious Malaysian restaurant recommend by our lovely friend. We ordered the classic roti and the omelette one. Also the satay, goreng. And me goreng. Everything was so perfect and we enjoyed it a lot.

    So tasty!!! We have never walked away disappointed, it’s a local favorite - reminds me of eating in Malaysia! You can watch the roti being hand made and cooked in the front window, it’s a great show! Then settle in for some very tasty dishes! The fish curry is a favorite, but everything is great. Heads up: no alcohol is served here, but they make some great sweet teas and free bottles of water. They also sell some of the sauce for take away in a jar for you to use at home.

    Had the worst experience here. Ordered a take away and waited for 15 mins. Lack of staff and terrible service. My order did not packed properly and the curry was spilled on my jacket. I had to take my jacket for a dry clean. Curry is the hardest stain to be removed. The staff was irresponsible and careless. The owner should be aware of the customer service. Never come here again!!

    Delightful experience in Melbourne CBD. All the dishes were hot on arrival, the downside was the wait time for some dishes - Customers who ordered after us received the same dish first. Overall, the spiciness of the chicken was up to standard, and the roti was fresh and crispy. Would recommend this spot on a cold evening for dinner!

    It's Australia Open 2024 first Sunday and we decided to head to the city for brunch. Service & Ambience [3]. Inside the restaurant looks ordinary and boring. The colour combination of the tables, wall and floor looks like you step into a factory canteen. As for the staff, there quite a few and service, nothing to highlight. Food [4]. What we like - mee goreng, nasi rice, cheese and egg roti and satay. What really odd are the satay sauce, tastes sweet and lack of the nuts, the chicken (ayam rembah) seems dry inside and lack the taste. The beef satay also lack taste. The teh xi (evaporated milk tea) taste alright. There several good feedback on their food but for us, not sure what happened at the kitchen. Won't rule out coming back again.

    This was my first time dining in this restaurant. My friend and I ordered the Mee goreng and nasi lemak with a side order of chicken rice. Both dishes tasted close to being authentic and it was indeed a very gratifying meal. I would definitely make repeat visits.

  • 4/5 Andrew P. 1 year ago on Google
    Flavours That Last Tried mamak for the first time and it is not disappointing. It tasted like an authentic Malaysian dishes. The highlight of the dish is the Chicken Satay. The sauce is good and the satay are nice and smokey. Dessert can be better but overall would come back again for an authentic Malaysian dish

    Ordering is via app, and everything we ordered today was delicious and authentic! Would definitely come back again to try their other dishes. Payment via cash gets 5% discount, however paying by Liven will get you a better deal! So glad we came in early as they had group bookings today and the place was full and so lively :)

    Got nasi goreng ($16) and sotong sambal ($22). The nasi goreng was FAR from authentic, they must have added tomato sauce in it - I could taste the tomato flavour in every spoon. Also, they used the frozen mixed carrot, peas, corn and beans veggie packet for the nasi goreng. You are better off making your own nasi goreng/fried rice at home instead of paying a visit here. The sambal sotong was slightly better, a little salty. Overall, it was utterly disappointing. The fact that they could ruin a basic Malaysian/Indonesian dish like nasi goreng says everything about the authenticity of the food here.

    Great restaurant for your Malaysian fix. The roti is buttery soft and crispy that goes so well with the curry dips. Highly recommend the slightly spicy curry dip as its the perfect level of spice to cut through the roti. Also ordered the classic Nasi Lemak with an extra piece of chicken. The chicken was big for its size and delicious! Had to also get the green peas to balance out the meal which tasted great with a fresh crunch. Will come again!

    So tasty and authentic Malaysian cuisine! Mee Goreng is my favourite. Their roti are all freshly made to order. I have recommended this restaurant to a few friends and they all love it.

    The Roti Bom is the Best! Tasty, buttery, crunchy on the outside but gooey on the inside. Perfect combination with condensed milk? We ordered Mee goreng, a piece of fried chicken and teh tarik enough to fill 2 hungry tummies. We’ll be back for more!

  • 4/5 Tony J. 8 months ago on Google
    Good spot for some Malaysian eats. My favourite is the fried chicken. Different flavour that the ones I’m used to so it was a nice change of pace…crispy but still juicy. Down side would be that I wanted to buy some extra roti but you can’t just buy individual extra pieces with your meal.

  • 5/5 Madeleine D. 11 months ago on Google
    If you know what to get, Mamak is great. And it even has my Malaysian father-in-law's approval! Top choices include the roti (perfectly flaky with savoury and sweet curries/sambals for dipping), the teh tarik (fluffy yet strong tea with just enough sweetness), the rojak and the nasi lemak. The curries and fried noodles/rice are also tasty but didn't leave the same impression. I don't even know how many times I've been here. And the food has been consistent throughout.

    Don’t bother trying to order takeaway here. I had to wait over 40 minutes for my order and the service is disgusting. I’m shocked how I was treated. I ordered enough takeaway for two and sat at a table to wait as the restaurant was almost empty, aside from one table of customers. I was quickly directed to sit on a stool by the wall. I was told my order would take around 15 minutes so I left and returned to pick up my order around 20 minutes later. I think they’d forgotten it, they took my receipt into the kitchen and started laughing. I had to ask what was going on and was told to wait. I had to wait another 20 minutes for my order. I waited there this time. Bloody nightmare.

    This has been in our list for a while, as I love Malaysian food, and I am a big fan of Nasi Lemak, Malaysia's national dish, we decided to finally visit. This place gets packed very quick, so you’ll have to wait for a while before getting yourself a table. Once we were seated by the friendly staff, we ordered the following: - Nasi Lemak - Fragrant coconut rice accompanied by an ensemble of sambal, peanuts, crispy anchovies, cucumber, and hard-boiled egg. You have the option to add curry chicken/fish/lamb/vegetarian. I opted for the Fish Curry. - Kari ikan - A tangy fish curry cooked with fresh tomatoes, okra, and eggplant. - Ayam goreng - Malaysian-style fried chicken. Marinated with herbs and spices and full of flavour. ($5 per piece) - Nasi goreng - Malaysian-style fried rice with spicy sambal, eggs, prawns, French beans, assorted veggies, topped with fried shallots. Loved the Nasi Lemak! Everything about it is exactly how I had it in Malaysia. The fried chicken was nice & juicy, if a bit oily. The Kari Ikan (fish curry) was not as tangy as we expected it. The Nasi Goreng wasn’t served with the traditional fried eggs on top, so it was just a mixture of fried rice with prawns. Didn’t feel traditional. We asked for single rotis, but were surprised that they don’t serve them individually, and you have to order the curry dips and spicy sambal sauce with. It was a real let down, as we just wanted some bread with the curry. At the end of the meal, we ordered the Kopi Tarik (Malaysian white coffee), and asked for no sugar as we know it it’s made with condensed and evaporated milk which is already sweet. Apparently, that is not possible, and it has to come with sugar!!! So even with one spoon of sugar, it was way too sweet for us, and we honestly couldn’t be bothered to drink it. This place has potentials to be better if they are a bit more flexible with stuff that can either not be added or can be purchased as a single item. We are not asking to change the food, just don’t add sugar to the drinks, and charge us for single rotis, similar to the fried chicken.

    Delicious curry and the roti is very crispy and flaky. Satay chicken is good but it’s not the star of the show. The food portion is not very big but it’s way worth the price you’re paying for.

    Cheap, Quick and Some decent flavours! Please do not expect amazing customer service. Here speed and customer turnaround is important. I recommend the famous roti canai and murtabak…good value for your money

    This has long been one of my favourite quick Malay restaurants. The kari ayam, chicken curry, is simply great as is the nasi goreng and the Roti canai speciality are equally great. The meals came out so quick that we had practically finished them when the Roti's arrived. The restaurant is looking tired, the tables are sticky and they're not really cleaned all that well between guests. For what you end up paying you'd expect a little better and the plastic drinkware is terrible.

    Came here for brunch on a Sunday afternoon. Weekend, there's a 10% surcharge. Restaurant is spacious and easy to find. Ordered through their online menu and food did not take long to arrive. We ordered Nasi lemak, beef satay, Ayam berempah and ais Kajang. Portion for the nasi lemak was a little stingy on sambal and anchovies but it was expected. Satay was nice and tender and delicious. The peanut sauce was nicely done and generous serving. The Ayam berempah was crispy, tender and delicious. The spices were slightly over powering but overall, we enjoyed the chicken. We asked for the ais kacang to be served a little later and when they brought it, it was disappointing. Did not look anything close to the generous portion in the photo. It only had minimal amount of grass jelly, red bean and cream corn. No peanuts, no cendol, no other toppings. $10??? That is not right. I'd stay away from ordering the cendol or ais kacang If the portions are going to be so skimpy. I had eaten at the Sydney location and remembered my good experience there. Sadly, this location was a little half hearted in presentation, hence minus 1 star.

    Go here for some casual Malay food cooked very well. Rotis are delicious along with the curry and the mixed skewers. Their sauce is amazing and is also available for purchase in jars. They have an interesting dessert dish with the upside down ice cream cone shaped sweeter roti with ice cream. Worth a try if you’re still hungry afterward.

    Mamak offers a good range Malaysian food - authentic and not too greasy. Appreciated the option to tweak the spice levels here as well for us non-spice eaters. Paying in cash gets you a discount here!

  • 5/5 AnnA 4 months ago on Google • 85 reviews
    It seems like they only got orders through the app and QR code? Food was nice and the portions were pretty much 😋

  • 4/5 Michael L. 1 month ago on Google • 21 reviews New
    I like coming here as they have good Malaysian food at decent price. Dozen satay for $30 bucks is pretty good deal and they are pretty tasty. I was here with 5 friends and we got a bunch of yummy food and shared. $150 and all of us are full and happy. 😋

  • 4/5 Doc K. 2 months ago on Google • 20 reviews New
    May be I am a little critical of the food as I am an Asian tourist and perhaps the food was catering for more Aussie taste buds! Services and the overall set up were excellent. It was lunch hour while we were there, the restaurant was packed. For a quick bite and taste of Australian style Malaysian food it was good

  • 3/5 Kheng Hui C. 5 months ago on Google • 20 reviews
    Nasi lemak is good. Lamb curry I would prefer slightly thicker gravy. Roti canai would be better if hot and more crispy. Dhal for the roti canai and the sambal is tasty! Narrow space between tables will need some adjustments.

  • 5/5 Arif U. 2 years ago on Google
    Amazingly tasty Malaysian food. Well recommended place. One downside is price. It’s a bit on the higher side

  • 5/5 Saijal B. 3 years ago on Google
    Quick service, staff is friendly and very professional. They already let you know which items on the menu are not available prior to ordering. Food was amazing - totally value for money. I don’t eat spicy and was worried about the Sambal but everything was just perfect. They also took into account allergies and altered the ingredients to cater for that; food was still DELICIOUS without prawns & prawn paste. Toilets were clean. Lots of space in the restaurant. Overall 10/10! Would absolutely recommend and will absolutely eat there again. Could not be more satisfied.

    It was a reasonably good dinner. Food was delicious and good price. Also you can get 10% discount if you pay in cash. Negative point was the loud noise. Kitchen was too noisy while they were cooking and even the people were talking too loud.

  • 4/5 AJ 2 years ago on Google
    Mamak is always a good time! Close to work for a quick dinner. Get the roti and the chicken satay. That sauce is like crack. They actually bottle it and sell it in store. We also have been loving the mee goreng noodles too. It’s really filling and tasty.

  • 5/5 Villie Jo G. 2 years ago on Google
    The smell, it was nice, and you know it's Asian. A frozen flower manager, great food and the Roti is heaven. If your looking for a Malaysian food, this is the place.

  • 3/5 Keven L. 2 years ago on Google
    Had the spicy lamb curry with a milk tea. Food was decent and good value for money. Malaysian curry tastes different to what you’d normally expect from your usual curries. I’d say it’s slightly worse than what I would want. Same with the milk tea.

  • 3/5 Angel K. 1 year ago on Google
    Mamak served Malaysian cuisine in a casual environment. Their menu wasn’t large and I’d been here a few times so I’d tried most of their dishes. My favourites were their nasi lemak and ayam berempah, but I also enjoyed their range of roti. Service was pretty much non-existent but overall very decent and good value.

  • 4/5 Darren W. 2 years ago on Google
    Mamak specialises in Malaysian street food served FAST, informal dining, and is a consistent performer. I’ve been eating here and at the sister restaurant in Sydney for years and never disappointed. It’s unbelievable how fast the food arrives. Just for fun, I set my stopwatch today - food hit the table 4:08 after ordering. Crazy efficient. If you’re reading this, Mamak, please add a couple more vegetarian options to your menu. Food is delicious and fresh. Specialities are roti canai and chicken satay skewers. i think only it’s getting a little bit expensive for street food - todays bill was $60 for one vege curry, one serve roti and one serve skewers

  • 5/5 Jay I. 11 months ago on Google
    Great food, service was good. The only thing they could improve is to have food coming at the same time or close to each other, apart from that great and recommend the place.

  • 5/5 Gabriel W. 8 months ago on Google
    Taste: 5/5 Price: $-$$ Portions: medium The plain rotis were really tasty but the rotis stuffed with lamb and chicken were a bit disappointing. The beef satay skewers were delicious as well. The pandan and coconut sweet roti was to die for.

  • 5/5 Susan W. 8 months ago on Google
    Roti Telur Bawang (Egg and onions - a must for omelette lovers) with Teh Ais ( Traditional Ice Milk Tea ) Just scan the barcode of restaurant menu and order from the table, it takes very convenient way, fast reliable and easy to access technology support for avoiding customer service manual order. Very popular food and tastes absolutely delicious! 😋

  • 5/5 Isuru W. 11 months ago on Google
    Here you get an ultimate Malaysian dish experience, the food is great with good portion size and booking a table is very easy just have to scan the code on the table no and you can order your meal as well. Lunch is served between 12pm to 3pm so make sure to visit during that time. The roti dishes are really superb with two curries served with it and never forget to have the teh tarik with it ☕.

  • 5/5 Jennifer Z. 1 year ago on Google
    Great range of dishes, would highly recommend the chicken satay and fried rice. Nasi lemak is always a classic and we had the egg roti as well. Waiting time to be served was better than expected during peak hours and tummies were very full on leaving :)

  • 5/5 Nguyen Tuan K. 1 year ago on Google
    The roti dishes here are awesome, especially the buttery one. I initially thought that the red paste is spicy, but it turns out to be shrimp paste (which is great). Only thing is that the portion is quite small. The skewers were great as well, with very delicious sauce. The fried chicken was good, but a bit salty to my taste (But I heard that is Malay/Indo fried chicken taste standard, so maybe that’s alright). 10% off if pay by cash.

  • 5/5 Taryn F. 9 months ago on Google
    Delicious food and drinks, especially the roti and the dahl it comes with! Service is friendly even when they’re super busy (all the time!). Tasty, reliable, reasonably priced (for Melbourne) food that has stayed consistent for the 6 years I’ve been a customers.

  • 4/5 Norain H. 3 years ago on Google
    Sambal sotong is the best ! Even its too spicy but thats what make I want to come back again. You can find real Malaysian food taste here. It would be great if you can add some more special dish in the menu for local to discover Malaysian food ;)

  • 2/5 Chennai G. 4 years ago on Google
    Salty food with poor value for money. The Nasi Lemak would have been great if the sambal had less salt considering the anchovies and peanuts are salty enough. The sambal calamari was even more salty with calamari that looked dead centuries ago. One additional roti is 8bucks regardless of whether it is an add on. Service was friendly and prompt but the food is a downer. The table next to mine wasted food too. The set up is so cramped that you can neither enter nor exit your table comfortably. Probably not worth another trip for me.

    Randomly stopped in here for dinner with friends and were glad we did!! Smells were divine and no wonder - the food was fabulous ! I had the lamb curry and roti and it was brilliant - flavoursome and yum with beautiful fall apart meat ! Grabbed some beers from the local Asian supermarket and we were good to go!! I would definitely come here again !!

  • 3/5 Steven N. 4 years ago on Google
    The last time I ate in Mamak was in Sydney in 2013. It has been about 7 years since the last time I ate this nasi lemak. It was quite alright but I was disappointed with the fried chicken. It was a little bit plain. The sambal and anchovies helped to bring in that rich flavor. Definitely, the overall taste downgraded since the last time I tried this dish. However, the teh tarik was nice.

    Mamak has a range of good Malaysian food. However, they are a bit lacking in seasonings. Also, the service was slow even though the restaurant was not busy. Overall, it is a good place to grab lunch or dinner, but nothing really stood out that will make me come back for more.

    My husband and I live in the CBD so are spoilt for choice when it comes to Malaysian food but we always order from here. The best Mee goreng I've ever had and we always make sure to have one of their banana rotis with curry sauce. Awesome, awesome food, friendly staff and great value for money. A big recommend.

    The food at Mamak is stunning! The dishes are presented beautifully and are loaded with flavor. We tried a roti, noodle dish, and a rice dish with fried chicken and goat curry; everything was delicious. I would recommend this restaurant to anyone looking for excellent Malaysian food at great prices.

  • 3/5 Edwar K. 3 years ago on Google
    One of the most well known Malaysian establishment which originated from Sydney. We tried the rojak and the nasi Lemak. Both food are well presented but lacking anything special to make us want to come back again. Prices are also on the steeper side compared to the servings. Food - 6 Service - 8 Vibe - 6 Price - $$$

  • 4/5 Moyeen K. 4 years ago on Google
    Family friendly restaurant. Satay chicken, fish dish and tiger prawn sambal are great. Most of the curries have gluten-free options. Service is very quick. Price is reasonable. Crockery and cutlery has done their time. Restaurants is very big but sitting arrangements are VERY cramped.

    The place is spacious, lots of tables, looks crowded .. I eat nasi lemak which is aspired from the hotel, the distance from the mercure is not far. Nasi lemak that I eat is not the same as the nasi lemak in Singapore and Malaysia. The side dishes is only sliced ​​cucumbers, anchovies, half boiled eggs, chili sauce. The price is Aud 11 ... fried chicken adds Aud 4 ... it tastes much better in its home country ...

    The best lamb curry I've ever had. Melting tasty spicy enough fresh.... I don't have enough compliment to give to you. It was exzctly the taste I was looking for for my last day in Australia. Thank you for this delicious moment. 20$ as a main course very generous in meat

    TBH, i really looked forward to having these. But it’s not up to my expectation? Besides there are so many ppl and crowded and noisy. So it’s not a good restaurant to have cosy experience. But!!!!! ROTI BOM is crazy delicious?❣️ I wanna come back later to try again this.

    Reasonable food. Priced on the higher side. Asked for some chilli sauce and the guy brought a very tiny amount over to our table. When I went to clear the bill I was charged $5 extra for the sauce.

    I heard good things about Mamak before visiting, but it’s a bit hit or miss. Let’s start with the hits. It’s BYO with a minimal corkage. The staff will store your chilled wine and top you up. The egg roti is fluffy and delicious (as well as the curries it’s served with). But the service is a bit slow. There are no wine glasses. The vegetable curry contained barely any vegetables and the Nasi Lemak was pretty plain. The flavours were fine but not great, and the dishes were affordable but didn’t provide value, unfortunately.

    (Translated by Google) The fat rice & satay is worth it !! (Original) The nasi lemak & satay is worth it!!
