One of the best Cheap Eats if you're hankering for some fried noodles. My go to every time is the Mee Goreng (how can you say no at $10?) which is always hot and delicious. Staff are friendly and easy to deal with. Limited interior seating, but more seating outside and it is located down Left Bank (off of Cuba St) so a bit more quiet even during the lunch and dinner rush.
The. Quintessential dining place for the VUW student. Went back yesterday, seven years after graduating and it's still just as good as I remember. Can't go wrong with the Mee Goreng 👌👌
Friendly staff, fast service, cheap food made great. Would definitely revisit!
Friendly staff and efficient service. We went to Welly for few days and was looking for a nice Malaysian place with reasonable price. We are so glad we decide to try the food there. Ordered satay (beef and chicken), roti, seafood laksa and Sambal chicken. Really like the food.. would say they are more on the sweet side in terms of seasoning not spicy. Come and give it a try, looks like they are popular amongst the locals too, saw many office people drop by for lunch.

OK so I was asked a question the other day. Would you rather work at Wagamamas for a million dollars an hour or work at the Kingdom for free cleaning tables. I looked at the person who asked the question and said, "Mate I hope that is rhetorical." This is honestly hands down the best most authentic Malaysian cuisine in the country if not the world. I go into the restraint, don't even look at the menu and order the straight up roti Chennai. The best Chennai in the land, the spices and creamy sauce runs down my throat and touches my heart. Coupled with the soft, luxurious roti and tangy peanut sauce i honestly could not ask for anything else in life except this. I no longer view the staff as ordinary restaurant staff, but as my family. They are always there smiling away, passionately serving the customers. I'd just like to say thank you Satay Kingdom, tears are dripping on my keyboard as we speak and I can already taste the roti Chennai I will indulge myself with this afternoon. Love Cholley.
I love Satay Kingdom! I tell anyone who wants a cheap meal with hearty food to hit up S.K
I've settled on one meal and one meal alone...Noynoya chicken. It's so good, I dream about it! Ive been going here about 4 years and in the last couple of months though (I always get it takeaway) they have filled the container almost 3 parts rice, 1 part chicken & veg. It's totally gutterd me! I travel a long way to get it and I always will come back but maybe sit in and dine - they give you way more.
Every Wellington students memory would have a space for Satay Kingdom. All these years this place still maintain the quality of their food and most importantly----student friendly price.
My favorites are the Curry Laksa with Roti and the fried noodles..
The situation of the cafe is unique to Wellington too.. down the end of a quite but boutique style complex at the middle of Cuba St.
I love this place, cheap and worth it. Can get a really simple feed of roti and peanut sauce for $3.50 and it's like a great time. Satay Kingdom is essentially my second home and it's just the place to be!
Hands down the best. Fast and prompt service, food is always amazing and so reasonably priced. Restaurant is smaller and isn't really designed for dining in, but they can have a takeaway roti chenai ready for you within ten minutes tops. I'm struggling to find anywhere that does it better.
This was one of my favourite spots to eat when I was studying in Wellington!
It is cheap and worth your money.
All their food was delicious especially their Roti Chanai! Their fried rice and fried noodles was also good. It was always packed here, mostly students.
Now when I visit Wellington I always come here! It's my fave spot for cheap eat.
Great spot for a cheap, cheerful meal. Friendly staff and good food. I had the chicken curry which was flavoursome but a bit watery, could have been thickened-up a bit. The roti here is pretty good too. It's amazing how much food you get for your buck here. I will definitely be back :)
Satay Kingdom is a weekly occurrence for the fam bam, never lets you down. Best dishes for me are the Roti Chanai, Noyonya Chicken and you cant go past the Mee Goreng🔥🔥
Been here a couple times, always great, decided to order off Uber Eats for once... Selected my food and Vanilla Coke and went to submit order. Before completing i decided to actually take the coke off the order, but i left a note accidently asking for what type of drink i wanted because Uber dosen't do this for whatever reason. When the driver get close to my house i realised that my note was still on the order. The driver arrived, package in hand, and the Vanilla coke was there poking out in all her glory!!!!! Workers had kindly left the drink in the order! 5/5, would recommend
Found on the Left Bank off Cuba St in Wellington this iconic dining establishment never fails to deliver excellent tasty food at excellent prices. I spent less for my Roti Chennai Chicken meal than I would have for a meal at McDs and the food is soooo much better. The service is quick and delivered with a smile. Been coming here for more than 15 years, great place!!
3pm in Wellington and nothing open except for this tiny space which serves noodle salad. A new combo for me but to my surprise was really tasty. And the price is absolutely cheap. Really happy with this new discovery.
This is such a special place in my heart to go have a sit down inside or outside. Me and my son went back to Satay Kingdom Cafe after 9 years use to dine there all the time with my son and daughter when we were living in wgtn. The owners are lovely people and the food is excellent and yummy it was so lovely to go back after all these years to see the owners are still there just can't beat there food thank you Satay Kingdom 👑 your the best 😊 and they do deserve 5+stars ✨⭐✨
Ordered Satay Kingdom through Menulog and was disappointed when Menulog never delivered my order! On pickup, Satay Kingdom went above and beyond and made me a fresh order, even throwing in a free drink! I am so appreciative, food was great too, don't walk, RUN to Satay Kingdom because they the best <33333
Quick and friendly, even on a very busy Friday night. Reasonably priced and huge portions, easily got two meals out of a single main.
The fish tasted a little old, but to be expected for the price. Wat tan hor is life
Yum food, and can't beat the price. You'll be wearing your puffer jacket if you eat there though - there's no hearing and the door's always open.
Love this place! Good cheap food with fast service and loads of flavour.
Not as cheap as it used to be unfortunately but still nice food and cheerful. Always open. Used it for years and I've never been ill or anything.
