Authentic, delicious, and affordable! Chef Sasa Sayang is a modest, cosy little restaurant with fast and friendly service.
-Mee Goreng ($12.9). Extremely flavourful, good serving of prawns, not so much chicken. It also included egg, a little portion of tofu, bean sprouts and green onion.
- Chicken satay ($10 for 5 pieces). The chicken was tender and had that classic charred/BBQ taste. The peanut sauce was extremely yummy and the cucumber added a refreshing touch.
-Chicken curry with roti canai ($14.9). Yum yum yum! The roti canai was slight oily but very soft and flaky. The curry tasted very authentic with large pieces of chicken, some of which were slightly dry, but super flavourful.
We will DEFINITELY be returning to this awesome little eatery!

I used to come here a lot as a kid, and I've missed it so much. I came here last night for dinner and the place was already quite packed. The staff were quick to clear out a table for us and another couple. The food came out relatively quickly
We ordered the Malaysian Fried Chicken, Char Kuey Teow, Fish head rice noodles and curry puffs. I only had a little box of Char Kuey Teow to take for lunch tomorrow as I couldn't stop eating. They de-bone the fried chicken for you (which is absolutely amazing) and it's in this delicious lemongrass sauce but it doesn't compromise any of the crispiness of the chicken. The curry puffs were a bit too oily (the skin was a little soggy) but I still enjoyed it nevertheless. The noodle soup was good - the soup was perfect! The noodles didn't taste like fresh rice noodles but it's not a big deal. I absolutely loved my Char Kuey Teow as well.
I can't wait to come back to try more of the menu. Just remember to book if you want to come during the peak hours - or come a little earlier or later than usual so you can get yourself a seat.
This was our second time here and nothing has changed, the food was still great and the taste was authentic similar to the dishes I had when I was still living in Malaysia. This establishment is located in Mokoia Road in Birkenhead, it’s a small establishment so make sure you reserve a seat when you want to dine in at peak hours.
I've have been eating at this place since it opened I have introduced several of my friends here we all love the food and know the owners personally i recommend chef rasa sayang my favorite is the chicken laksa it is fantastic friends of mine Bob and chrissy go once a week for the laksa go and eat there you won't regret it
Enjoy gavin packer
I have tried their take away Hainan chicken, fried tofu and marmite pork. Very generous on the portion serving. Too far away from my home, if not, will be visited regularly!
I have been to this eatery quite a few times now and food is still tasting delicious! I personally love the green beans. It’s a small place but food is tasty. It’s good to book a table a head of time because they are always busy.
Legit Malaysian food! One of the best I have tried in Auckland with reasonable price. I had the Wat Dan Hor and it’s delicious. Highly recommended
Lovely owner and fantastic food. A family favourite! Top picks - beef rendang, sambal beans and marmite chicken. Beautiful flavour profiles and blend of spices.
We come here for the Hainanese Chicken Rice almost every fortnight. Tastes like home! Generous portion and reasonably priced. This is a must!
Delish. Love it so much, I definitely recommend. 5-star rating for me. The Hokkien Noodles will not let you down. Also the spring rolls are REALLY good.
One of the best Malaysian restaurant you can find in Auckland. The owner was super friendly and the food was so good with a good portion and price on point.

Delicious mi goreng and sweet and sour pork. One of the best mi goreng I’ve eaten. Very affordable. Place is small so it can be crowded sometimes but it’s worth the wait. Staff are an old couple who are very accommodating. For sure will come back here to taste their other menu.
The service here is exceptional. The needs of the customer are put first. How refreshing.
We ordered Chicken Rendang and Chilli Prawns. The lovely serving lady suggested that these meals would be a bit too big for luncheon and suggested a small plate size. How correct she was, although the cost was 1/3 less it was more about us and our needs. How refreshing🙏
First time went there. Always looks busy so had high expectations for this restaurant. We ordered prawns Sambal. Prawns were good size and also tasty. We also ordered flat rice noodles (I forgot the name of the meal) which was also good. Staff was friendly, price is good. I felt I was in Asia! I am missing this atmosphere. Hope covid-19 will be ending soon and we can go travel soon.
This little Malaysian restaurant is a little known gem tucked away in a little suburb on the Shore. If you did not go looking for it, you probably wouldn't find it.
But they do the best deep fried blue cod in a slightly sour-ish, spicy, and yet light sauce. The tofu dish reminds me of a Malaysian snack called "rojak" which is tofu cubes mixed into a cucumber and sliced carrot salad along with lashings of chilli sauce and crushed peanuts - amazing. The sambal chicken wasn't too bad, nothing exactly worth mentioning but it did the job.
Service is prompt and with a smile and food comes out, quickly.
To get hot water refills for your jasmine tea, it's self service from the hot water flask next to the cashier's desk.
Excellent authentic Malaysian dishes. Highly recommend the Rendangs, and love their Nasi Lemak, one of my favorite dishes. As tasty as any I have had in NZ. An added bonus, it's very reasonably priced. Excellent service too. Definitely my go to if I have cravings for Malaysian cuisine. Will have to sample more of their dishes for sure.
Absolutely delicious. Beautiful small restaurant. Fantastic Flavours. Will be going again.
The besy malaysian food I have had on Shore. Well priced and generous portion size. Well done👍 will definitely be back😬
Very rich flavours. Food was pipping hot and very authentic Malaysian food. The tables were a bit too close together. Would return for takeaway.
Ordered Hokkein mee and was totally satisfied! Great taste with pork lard from a really hot wok. Decent portion as well. Char kuey teow was also really good. One of the best we have tasted. Definitely be back.
