Roti Chenai is a longstanding restaurant known for serving up great Malaysian and southern Indian cuisine in a casual environment. The food is consistently good with appealing regional variations. I enjoyed chicken murtabak, which is bread stuffed with spicy chicken, egg and onion with lamb curry. The rest of my group had butter chicken with roti, chilli chicken masala and lamb korma. The service can be a bit slow and our meals were just lukewarm tonight. We also had to remind staff about our side order of roti, as we’d nearly finished our meals before they were served. Other than that, Roti Chenai is somewhere we happily return to for delicious meals.

The atmosphere here is peaceful and warm. I felt so welcome and my masala dosa was perfect. Something about this place which manages to create a consistent service and food quality with real humbleness.

On a 6 week NZ trip. Have been in Wellington for 3 days. This place is right next door to our apartments. We leave for South Island tomorrow so went in because it's handy. Regretting now that we hadn't been in before.
Delicious food and friendly service at a fair price. What more could you want?

In the early 90's this place was the best for value for a 20 something looking for an ethnic meal under $5 for lunch.
20 years later I walk in with my wife and child and I recognize the faces of the person making the food and the person waiting on the tables.
It's the same people I shared my low cost lunches with!
The amazing thing is that they recognize my wife and I!
We smile and grab a seat and introduce them to our soon to be 21 year old daughter and the faces change from recognition to "OMG I'm old"
The food is always good. The gingerbeer is still the great Bundeburg.
We will use Roti Chenai as a Wellington Staple. Now it's up to our next generation to keep enjoying this place.

Best food. Authentic Indian Malaysian food. I love their Roti Chena and Chicken curry. Spicy but not hot. Very Flavourful. The Masala tea is very nice. Staff are very friendly. Lovely Atmosphere with desi music playing in the background mostly. I would love to visit this place often. I would definitely recommend this place

I’ve had lots of Curry’s in my time, been living in NZ for 6 yrs and this is easily the best curry I’ve had.

Located in a very central business area this popular Indian-Malaysian food place offers great tasting food. If you are lucky you may be able to watch the chef twirling flour dough in the air skillfully that ultimately ends up being a delicious paratha to be enjoyed with one of their lip-smacking curries for which this cafe has achieved popularity amongst locals and tourists alike.

Great Malaysian South Indian food. Friendly service. Value for money. Hard to find car park during peak hours but still worth it. Highly recommend.
