"Mamak was a wonderful spot to catch up and enjoy some warm, comforting food. I had dinner there with two friends. Since I had heard their roti is popular, I ordered it along with a curry chicken laksa. Even though it was a Wednesday, the place still had a nice crowd. The laksa was hearty and delicious, and the roti was perfect for dipping. Definitely a place I would recommend!"

"I’ve been here a handful of times and always had a good time. The food comes out quickly, and the staff are always great to chat with. The menu covers all the Malaysian classics I enjoy - char kway teow, laksa, mee goreng. It’s a solid spot that consistently delivers. The Chancery location also makes it a convenient place to meet and continue your day/night, whether you're in a small or large group."

"CURRY CHICKEN NOODLE - A must have dish here. Served in a massive bowl, full of flavour, veges and heaps of chicken within. This is a flavour punching delicious curry Noodle dish. You must have this here. Sambal chickens flavour was good, but was very diluted, hence would recommend a skip on it The staff were friendly. The environment is a bit out dated, but it still is a delicious dining experience so you forget about the environment. Will be back again!"
