I booked ahead online and in the notes section said I was bring my 73 year old mum in for her birthday. So cute they put a helium balloon with happy birthday on the table. So sweet. My mum loved her spinach curry and the chilli prawns and mum kept saying the waiter was nice and had great smile 🙂. Reasonable pricing too.
Easily the best Malaysian restaurant in Wellington. Amazingly authentic dishes that takes me back to Malaysia instantaneously. Especially the fish and Klang chicken curries. Actually love most of your dishes. Keep up the good work
This is the only legit Malaysian restaurant in Wellington! Especially loved the curry puffs, roti canai, and nasi lemak. This is a hidden gold!
Pandan, pandan, pandan. My expectations were high, and it did NOT fail to disappoint, gorgeous curry and brilliant accompaniment of a garlic roti. I will be back to see Neeta and the team
First time I’ve ever written a review on here but this place warrants it for the best Indian food I’ve ever had. The restaurant was empty when we arrived at 8pm, but apparently there was a festival on at the town hall nearby. From the entrees to the mains the food was remarkable! I have tried many curries before and often make my own from scratch at home; the flavour of the KL lamb curry and the prawn entrée were complex but well rounded. Even my daughters plain old mild butter chicken was possibly the best I’ve tasted! The service was prompt and friendly, and the environment, while only having a simple and low-budget fit-out, was clean, tidy and organised. The prices were very good and the portions fair for the price. I’ll go out of my way to go back here, even if it’s a 20min drive just to get takeaways!
The food is always delicious and the staff are always friendly. There is so much yummy food to choose from their menu. Pandan is now our favourite regular restaurant
Love the food here the staff are always very welcoming When you arrive and are always whiling to answer any question that you may have. Definitely would recommend coming here they also do take aways yummy
Best roti in Wellington. Fresh and light, egg roti is awesome. Food is tasty and doesn't cost a heap. My favourite is the lamb curry. Lunchtime has good combos that will fill you up for $15.
We have beef rendang and chicken briyani. The taste was great and really similar with the one I has in Malaysia
The place is really clean and the staff is friendly
What a find! Amazingly authentic Malaysian flavours….wonderful menu & very friendly staff. I had tried Gado gado and a chicken curry with roti chanai previously so this time opted for a spicy chicken rendang with roti and the Cendol (shaved iced) dessert to finish. Absolutely no faulting it! Massive yum! Can’t wait to return for the recommended clay pot fish curry.
The food was amazingly delicious! Everything was easily adapted to a vegan diet. Service was great! We would definitely go to Pandan again, if back in Wellington some time.
One of my favourite places to eat in all of Wellington. If not NZ. Always amazes. Highly recommend the weekend brunch special: clay pot fish. And everything else on the whole menu!
Been wanting to write a review and always forget.
Hat down to the best Nasi Lemak in capital region. Honestly couldn't find anywhere that serves a better Nasi Lemak.
I'd drive all the way from Miramar to Lower Hutt just to fix my craving for a good Nasi Lemak. The beef rendang amazing, generous amount of sambal and fragrant basmati coconut rice.
Apart from that, if I'm feeling extra hungry, their roti chanai is definitely another excellent choice to go for!
We stumbled upon Pandan on Friday night. What a delight ...authentic flavours and extremely friendly and helpful staff. Ordered clay pot fish curry , Mee Hoon Goreng
Chicken chops and Egg Chanai. Mouthwatering aromatic dishes cooked to perfection. Reasonably priced and good quantity. Will be going back to try their famous Ikan bakar. Highly recommended.
Good food, good prices, location wasn't too bad, but I think you may struggle finding a park on a Saturday evening.
My only critique is that for a $5 coke you'd expect a glass bottle but it's just the $1 can, better off getting the Bundaberg gingerbeer.
Best Malaysian food we've had in Wellington. Our first experience of thosai/dosai in New Zealand. Supposed to be for lunch, we were there for dinner. The owner made it for us anyway after seeing our disappointed face. Came because our friend recommended. Braved the rain and severe weather—did not disappoint! The satay sauce, OMG, the SATAY SAUCE! We were in heaven.
Went to eat here for my 18th birthday last tuesday, and i highly reccomend!!!! My parents were enfatuated at how good it was and now they're planning days to go get dinner here again.
Dad had the Beef Rendeng and scoffed it so fast i blinked and it was gone. Mum had goat curry and dad had half of it because it was so good. I had mango chicken and very yummy!!!! The Spring rolls, curry puffs and Murtabak were so good I could barely finish anything I ate so much. 100/10
Thank you everyone!!! Had a lovely birthday and wil be coming back very soon ofc :))))
I had been to this place heaps and Everytime I go out there I say to myself that I will click some snaps of the dishes that I order. However, once the food is on the table I simply forget it due to the mouth watering aroma and the hunger that kicks in. I am a fanboy of this place. Amazing service great food. PS: If you not a great spice lover (Hot food) do let them know ur pref beforehand.
Fab flavours, lovely peaceful atmosphere, can feel the love in the food…. Thanks for making the birthday real special.
