How we read reviews →St Kilda's 43-year Acland Street institution, famous for a rich, comforting seafood laksa.
Cosy but cramped Acland Street institution with a hectic, buzzy energy on busy nights and a homely, dated charm reviewers describe as 'cheap and cheerful'.
43 years serving Acland Street, BYO wine welcome, halal options, outdoor street seating, and a wide selection of Asian desserts including sticky date pudding.
Mixed. long-time fans describe it as genuinely authentic Southeast Asian cooking, while some recent visitors say dishes like nasi lemak and laksa have drifted from traditional flavour.
Long regarded as reasonably priced for generous, tasty Malaysian food, though several recent reviews report shrinking portions and prices that no longer match the quality served.
