Ipoh Garden Malaysian Cuisine - Millbrae, California

The K. G. S.

No complaints at Ipoh Garden. Ladies were very nice and the place was clean. Roti is the best and the basil rice was something I had never had before. The fish was very flavorful and meaty. We thoroughly enjoyed our meal!

Overall this restaurant serves very good Malaysian food. Being from Malaysia I have been yearning for some good Malaysian food and they definitely satisfied my cravings. The Kangkung Belacan and roti canai are the best, just like in Malaysia. We also had red curry chicken (a little more chicken would be nice), dry lamb curry and mee siam which were quite good, definitely not greasy. They would be perfect if I had ordered them spicy. The staff are very nice. I would definitely come back for more.

Loved their food. Only thing is they ran out of the Malaysian pulled tea or Teh tarik. If you need to park, you can park on the street. It may be difficult to find parking when they are busy, so you may need to call ahead and ask where you can park. They have authentic Malaysian dishes. We love ordering the Roti canai with curry sauce as an appetizer or side dish. They have delicious veggie dishes like eggplant, Kang Kung Belachan and Tofu.

Excellent Malaysian restaurant. Close to SFO airport on El Camino Real in Millbrae. Friendly service. Everything I had here was super good.

My only go to place in the Bay Area, never disappoints. Fast efficient and delicious.
I highly recommend the char kuey teow.

They serve real Malaysian food here. The service is good, the staff are from Malaysia, and you can even smell belacan in the air 😁. The fried rice and wat tan hor have great flavor. We'll definitely come back for more.

Dined here on a Sunday evening with a family of 5 and the restaurant was fairly crowded.
Being a person originating around Malaysia, i would say that the food is pretty good in terms of taste.
Serving wise, be prepared that the portions are smaller sized and not the typical American diner joint size, but go for quality rather than quantity.
My take on the dishes ordered:
1) Char Kway Teow - 4/5, Taste meets the cut however in terms of serving size its smaller and its missing the "wok hey" taste.
2) Singapore Chilli Prawn - 4/5; good enough as it is authentic enough, the lower rating is due to the spiciness, maybe its tuned to local standards?
3) Pineapple fried rice - 3/5 - missing "wok hey", canned pineapple was used and the chicken meat was pretty badly sliced.
4) Roti Canai 3.5/5 - curry was authentic enough but take note that the roti canai looks and tastes like the ones you can get from the Asian Supermarket.
5) Hot Plate black pepper beef 3.5/5 due to the excessive tenderizer and MSG used.

Overall if you are craving for Singapore and Malaysian Cuisine this is a place you can shortlist.

Ordered a green beans, red curry chicken, and a mee goreng, (noodles with vegetables and shrimp) everything was very delicious. The red curry chicken was one of the best, smooth and not so strong spice flavor but sufficient to taste the rest of the dish properly, specially eating with white rice. Several dishes are shown as hot but could be ordered without being hot.
