Best Malaysian restaurants in Canada

Broth here was good not oily, beef balls were good as well but the beef slices had a weird taste imo. overall 7/10

Ordered their BOGO deal on uber. Grilled Chicken Chop Vermicelli Soup (L) and 088 Pad Thai(Shrimp， Chicken， Egg， Peanut)
Grilled Chicken was packed with the Vermicelli which made them a bit soggy, skin wasn't crispy. Pad That was tasty but could not find a single shrimp. Even chicken was minimal.

First time here for me. The food and portion is big and yes very tasty.
Rice noodles are top notch and I loved the pineapple fried rice.
The rice noodles is not oily and the beef they put inside is lean so my family loves it

Ordered #42 (house special beef soup) and #51 (Grilled chicken chop vermicelli soup). The beef is large ( I ordered the small) and has a nice refreshing taste. The vermicelli soup comes with chicken chops for a very reasonable price.

Very nice and attentive service!

The dining area is nice and clean but the stairs leading to the bathroom and the bathroom needs some attention.

FOOD

GOOD The chicken and porkchop rice is really tastey. Well seasoned and cooked well with nicely cooked rice.

BAD The vietnamese coffee is drinkable but lacks good coffee flavor. The strainer also let some coffee grounds into the coffee along with some what I think may be dried milk floating bits.

BAD The pho is mediocre. The soup lacks flavor but you do get A LOT of meat and noodles in it.

BAD The shrimp in the fresh rolls tasted freezer burnt unfortunately.

GOOD Lastly their curry chicken vermicelli was great! It's part of their $10 daily special and I think it's worth it.

Ordered off Uber eats and they had a buy 1 get 1 free Pad Thai dish. Portions were massive and I also ordered the spring rolls (I had already eaten 2pcs before taking a photo).

Pretty yummy, would love to dine in next time :)

Ordered Uber delivery today.. and it was OK. The Panang curry was super sweet.. sweeter than usual compared to most I’ve tried, and it had lots of potatoes which to me is not traditional. I chose calamari for my protein with my curry and the calamari didn’t taste that fresh, extremely dried out. Spring rolls were good, and the hot and sour soup was good, lots of veggies.

The best place to eat Thai food! Really delicious!! Love this place

A very decent place to eat. Everything was above average, and I would definitely consider going back to try other things on their menu (I had the spicy beef noodle soup).

Only thing holding this back from a 5 star is their noodles being and bit too overcooked, and the broth is a bit fattier than I prefer. This could just be personal preference though, so go try it yourself!

Ordered the vegetable curry pad Thai and it was delicious 😋 large portion and filled with lots of vegetables. It was flavorful and not too spicy either. Would recommend it! Can't wait to try other dishes!

Très jolie découverte. Nous avons commencé par leur spring rolls, un vrai délice, hyper croustillants. Puis on a testé le pad thai classic et le curry pad thai, les deux en végétarien, c'était très bon, les portions sont généreuses. Leurs cocktails sont pas mal aussi. Le restaurant est chic mais convivial, déco sympa avec des vraies plantes (je déteste les plantes artificielles). Je recommande!

We ate here for a late night snack. Ordered the chicken yellow curry and mango sticky rice. Their curry was good, although I wish the dish had more chicken portions. Their mango sticky rice isn't the usual sticky rice you see where the rice is white and the mango is served separately. It's all mixed together and had cashew nut toppings.

Wow

I absolutely loved the ambiance of this establishment. It's very elegant and classy inside. There are multiple different types of seating available inside, as well as an umbrella and and outdoor patio area for two outside the restaurant.

The server I had was an absolute sweetheart. Thank you so much for your service today!🙏

🌟Friendly Thai Appetizer Plate
🌟Beef Pad See-Ew
🌟Pineapple Fried Rice

The Appetizer plate was a generous portion and included both hot and cold spring rolls, calamari, shrimp satay and mango salad. Everything was absolutely DELICIOUS. The shrimps were a nice size too.

I'm a HUGE noodle lover; the thicker the better. The pad See-Ew was flavorful and full of perfectly cooked noodles to satisfy my craving.

I was expecting the pineapple friend rice to come in a pineapple.🍍 While it did not, it was still plated beautifully. The pineapple hunks in this dish were enormous. They use real pineapple here, none of that canned stuff. The shrimps were seasoned well and plentiful.

I was impressed with every dish I tried. If you're looking for a well priced, delicious Thai meal DO check out The Friendly Thai!

Prices are reasonable. Food came out fast. The restaurant is clean and spacious. Roti Canal is a must try. Bread is flavourful and tasty. We also had laksa, hainanese chicken, gado gado, char kuey teow, and sambal egg, but we feel like they are missing flavors and don't fit our taste bud.

Food was tasty and place was quite busy. Service was good but limited. It’s more like a fast food joint where you order and pay first. Then they call your number and you go up and grab your tray of food.

Delicious thai food. Tried the green curry, fried rice and some appetizers. This place probably has one of the best cooks out of several locations I've been to. The spice is perfect for my taste and of course Green curry was out of world. All flavours of food are top notch.

The garnishing of each dish was amazing and neatly presented. I would highly recommend this place if you really want yummy thai food and fast service.

I haven’t been back to this Friendly Thai since before COVID. Used to love it. The staff and food was always great! Now that I have eaten there a few times recently, I got to say, they have gotten better!

Their dishes that are spicy tickle the tongue just enough to dampen your periorbitals without losing flavour. The portions are almost perfect as in there is too much food! It fills me up that I sometimes don’t have room for dessert!

They have a wonderful drink selection. Menu covers all the meals you’d want from a Thai Restaurant and the Staff are great. Dine in experience is best. Vegetarian options are yummy. They will do their best to accommodate dietary restrictions but if you’re allergic to Peanuts, well you can’t eat at a Thai Restaurant!

My biggest issue with this place is that they get a lot of Uber Eats orders because their food is good. I enjoy coming here regardless.

Cafeteria quality food for restaurant pricing. You order at the front, you get a ticket with a number on it. Once your number is alerted, you will have to go and pick up from the side counter. Customer service was fine. The beef was super dry. I would not recommend this dish. Reading previous reviews, this seems to be a reoccurring theme with the beef. The roti was good and well done. The noods are ok, but I’ve had better at green and oak. I will come back to try the chicken rice, but I would not go out of my way to do so.

Today was the first time I tried Singapore Hawker and it was amazing! I saw that there were 2 locations but I decided to go to the one in Burnaby as it was closer. The reviews weren’t the greatest which made me a little bit skeptical but to my surprise this has to be one of the best restaurants I’ve visited in a long time. I decided to order takeout on the phone as it was busy at the time. The person on the phone was really professional while taking my order and when I arrived the staff were welcoming and nice. Even though I didn’t dine in, as soon as I stepped inside the restaurant I could feel the atmosphere as like I was back in Singapore which really brought back many memories.

The food was amazing as well. The takeout order was packed really nicely which made my commute home so much more easier. Everything tasted really high quality and reminded me of real Singaporean food. I would recommend visiting this place if you are around the area and I am definitely coming back for dine in.

Wonderful little Pho spot on the main strip. Delicious authentic tasting food with a quant and cozy atmosphere. Definitely one of those places that is a hidden gem in the neighbourhood. Their food was simply amazing, service was good and attentive. I would highly recommend not having to choose between chicken or beef skewers, get them both! That peanut dipping sauce was superb.

Contrary to the negative reviews, I decided to give this place a try and was pleasantly surprised. They've created a food court-style setting to keep prices reasonable, and the dishes are delicious. The curry was especially noteworthy for its thick texture and generous portions of meat. The staff were friendly and attentive, which made for a great dining experience. It seems that the management has taken steps to improve their operations based on past feedback. In my opinion, this restaurant offers an authentic Southeast Asian taste at an affordable price with welcoming service.

Disappointing food.
Rice was dry and beef in curry was dry and chewy almost like beef jerky!
Roti were soaked with oil not crispy. The rest of the food were mediocre at their best.
In comparison, their Coquitlam location is much better.

I was excited about the new location since it’s a bit closer to me.

It was nice that I was able to call and reserve a table because the walk in wait is about 45 min during dinner time.

I think I need to try again in a few months when the cooks get used to cooking because I feel like everything tasted sweeter than usual? but still tasty!

The wings were my favourite

Fast and efficient service! It's run like a fast-food restaurant. You first register at the cashier counter and wait to be seated. When a table is ready, you order and pay at the cashier counter, get seated, and wait to be called to get your food. Staff members are friendly and speak fluent English.

Food was tasty. Portions are generous. Good Malaysian curry at medium spiciness. Skewers are grilled well, juicy and tender. Authentic laksa noodles. Worth the wait and will visit again!
