My family visited this restaurant many times, since I was a child. We had not been here since 2018 or 2019, however, we visited again today for the first time in five years. It was awesome. The pork with preserved vegetables was soft, kangkong was well-cooked, and the hainanese chicken was delicious when paired with the sauce. We also ordered a pad Thai and that was really tasty. All I'd say is that the kangkong was on the dry side, but otherwise everything was great. We'll be back!

Great service and great food! Food portions were big for dine in, we got the golden pork chops and there were 5 pieces in one order. The Malaysian iced coffee and chicken flavored rice are highly recommended! Would definitely come back here again!

Went here for a weekend late lunch. Calamari was SO good. Roti canai solid (wish we had ordered more)! Hakka crispy pork SO SO crispy and tasty. Papaya salad was a little spicier than I remember but still good. Can’t wait to eat here again!! Only remembered to take pic of the calamari because too busy eating once all the dishes came out.

My family loves it here. The staff is friendly and asks about our kids when they’re not with us, feels like home! The wonton soup is the best I’ve ever had and the Tom yum is delicious. I always order a side of eggplant and Chinese broccoli w home made garlic sauce, and they accommodate our special requests! Kids get the meat skewers and noodle soups. The mango and sticky rice w/coconut sauce is amazing for dessert. I always order extra so I can have another meal!

Haven't been here in so long that I was eager to go back. This used to be a frequent spot i would visit. E were pleasantly surprised that there wasn't much of a wait. We were seated right away and ordered the roti, Hainesese chicken, pad thai, and Sarang Burong. The Sarang Burong is my all time favorite, the taro bowl is crunchy on the outside and soft on the inside. All the seafood is so flavorful and is excellent with rice. Next up is the roti. The curry is creamy and paired well, just wish we had more roti! The pad thai is average, a bit too sweet for me. As for the Hainanese Chicken, I'm not really a fan of cold chicken so my review of this is bias. Overall, still a great place to dine. Staff is friendly. The only issue is parking. The lot is quite small so I would recommend parking in the Kam man lot that is adjacent to the restaurant.

The young lady had such an attitude. I'm not sure if she was having a bad day, lazy day, or not care at all. I was glad an older waitress attended us after she neglected us, and she was so sweet and helpful picking our dishes. She was on point with her knowledge of the dishes we ordered. I love her

This place is my favorite restaurant in Marietta Georgia. Looks like it will be here as well. Service was served with smiles and our orders came out ready to fill our tummies. So yummy. Will be going to sleep very good this evening
