First time dining in after a few take outs. Casual restaurant with some nice staff. Luckily it wasn't too busy on a Sunday before 12pm and by the time we left they were about half full. Ordered: Roti canai - best appetizer!! I love flaky roti dipped into the delicious curry sauce. So good. Highly recommend and 1 order is good for every 2 persons I think. Curry Noodle Soup (laksa) with seafood - not bad but disappointed in the broth, more on the liquid side than thick and rich. The seafood was nice and tender and had a good variety though. Wish there were toppings like fish balls and tofu. Hainan chicken rice - pretty good but first time having the chicken be warm rather than room temp or cold. Garlic rice was fragrant and portion was huge, you can order 1/4 or 1/2 chicken and we accidentally got half lol Kari fish fillet - our fave main dish!! The curry was so flavorful and rich, lots of tender white fish and filled with a good variety of veg. Def would get again. Overall a great restaurant to get Malaysian food! Would definitely return to try other items.

Don't be fooled by the small interior because this restaurant comes with big flavors! My friend and I decided on the roti canai, curry puff, mango chicken, and rendang beef. Both the mango chicken and rendang beef had a good balance of protein and vegetables. The mango chicken was out of this world! The curry in the rendang beef was spot on, and the beef was very tender. Prices are fair. These four dishes totaled to around $60. My only complaint is that they were a bit disorganized while the restaurant was busy and did not have any system of keeping track of which parties arrived first. This caused some confusion, and I ended up getting seated much later than what I was told. Other than this, I'd be happy to come back for more of their dishes. Definitely worth a try if you're looking for authentic South East Asian flavors.

No photos, unfortunately, so I'll update this after my next visit. I ordered the beef chow fun (some places call it beef ho fun). It's one of those dishes that's either great or awful depending on the restaurant or chef. So far this is only the third place I've tried that makes it great (for my liking). Service is fast, and the food comes out in good time. It's in Asian Square off Buford Hwy, easy to access, and has plenty of parking. The space isnt necessarily big, so if it's a busy day or night, it may be hard to get a seat, but that's a good problem for the small business to have. The prices are affordable as well which is always a bonus when talking about Atlanta dining.

100% recommend going here coming from a local. The food was flavorful, and enjoyable as family style. We got assam and sambal shrimp which has a tangy and spicy taste to it. Assam is better than the sambal at this place! The chow kwei teow had a nice, bouncy bite to the noodles. The service was great in helping with our orders being mixed up with the wrong order of noodles. Come here if you want a mouth full of goodness.

Food was great! Service was mediocre and waiters did not seem to care about their customers at all. Last call for food orders is 830pm FYI.

Fast usually not during peak times and good Small dining area so you might have to wait during peak times I know they're known for their hainanese chicken lo mein but I kind of felt like it was not as much as I had expected it to be , but maybe that's how it's supposed to be kind of taste like it's been steamed with minimum seasoning. I do however, like their seafood pan fried noodles I always ask for the noodles on the side so they stay crispy.. I've also ordered their raised beef stew one of their chef special and it was very tasty! We'll definitely come back again and again

Eating here for a friends 40th birthday and the experience was elite! Let me tell you why. Ambiance: small hole in the wall, nothing special but basic. Service: fast, good and straight to the point. Food: flavorful, wonderful and each plate was authentic and so good. They unfortunately do have an 80 health score on the wall, which knocks them back a start. Will be back again!

I had heard a lot of great reviews about Mamak so I was looking forward to coming here. I got there with my friends on a random weekday and it was pretty empty, so we were seated quickly. The restaurant is not too spacious inside, so it can probably feel a little loud and tight if there are a lot of people dining in. I ordered the Beef Chow Ho Fun while my friends ordered the Nasi Lemak and Chef Special Stir Fried Noodles. Our dishes came out fairly quickly. I love beef chow fun because it is a dish that I often order at dim sum restaurants, so I wanted something familiar. I thought that their Beef Chow Ho Fun was just alright. It was nothing spectacular to me and I feel like I have had better beef chow fun at dim sum restaurants. I think there was a lack in flavor. However, I know that my friends really liked their dishes. I would come back and order a different dish next time to really understand the flavors of Malaysian food.
