Food was pretty nice & authentic. Roti was a bit chewy & Teh Tarik was too sweet to my liking. The cafe is a bit grubby & high chairs needs to be replaced as there were broken ones there.

Food is alright. Enjoyed the rice with fish and curry very much, the first time. Place could be cleaner. Cups for drinking water need change. A more friendly service would be nice though. Doesn't have the "want to go back" factor

More photos were added. Chef Bala told he started this restaurant 12 years ago. He was a chef from Subang Jaya of Malaysia. The curry goat was fresh and tasty. I liked the Teh Tarik (hot bubble milk tea) here. With the noise and the TV sports games on, this place made me felt like as if I was sitting in a Mamak restaurant in South East Asia. (2021-08) Instead of a real banana leaf, Rasa Sayang uses a big banana leaf plastic plate to serve. It does not have a traditional potable three or four curry serving containers for you to pour on the rice. The curry lamb and curry fish are nice. The Parata is crispy and not so fluffy. You can choose mild or spicy curry as you wish. (2021-03)

Best dhosa especially the onion and egg, ask for a few drops of ghee, and ask the expert dhosa maker aka Phav to make it crispy.

This is a small cafe (Kedai) selling Malaysian food. It is very authentic and the aroma is so very reminiscence of food shops of Malaysia. The only complaint I have and always had is this new server there kept pushing you to decide what you wanted to eat from the glass servery. She was very pushy. A customer has to see the curries etc to decide and not select something because of the pushyness from the server. Example, if a small serve of Biryani or plain rice was requested, by the time your plate was filled you ended up with a large meal instead of a small one. So be forewarned. The Biryani was Malaysian style minus the meat. One had to choose what curry you wanted with it. Unlike the Indian Biryani where rice and meat was cooked together. There were many other Indian snacks, like vadai and Malaysian Meehoon as well. I like the food very much. Price wise it depends on small or big serve. But I don't think it will cost more than $15. I was treated to lunch here so can only guess from past experience. I am not sure if the vadai was only sold on weekends as part of breakfast. Pays to check. Overall, an enjoyable meal. There are some outside seating as well.

This is the best place on Earth to eat this kind of authentic food in our wonderful Perth weather!! I mean eating in South East Asia, you are sweating bullets as penance while enjoying curry rice, roti or mixed altogether. Right here the flavors bring you right back to the source but more importantly the produce we have in Australia is the highest standards. The guys cook with so much soul and the spices are humming along. Truly amazing food and you cannot go wrong with the food selection, because everything is great! The price is also super reasonable. If you want a real true experience, this is the spot. I highly recommend everything, notably the goat curry, this was epic!

pretty good feed at a decent price during lunchtime on the weekdays - briyani (or plain rice) with whatever dishes they have on that day. taste is pretty good, but quantity could do with a bit more. staff here are pretty friendly too.
