Been there few times. Food was okay and specially that’s the only place in akl making fresh ROTI. When the first opening boss was really friendly and welcoming. But been there today, was trying to order ROTI BOM which is a dessert roti cost nzd8.50 , nasi goreng n a teh ais which make up total bil of nzd27.50. But boss was rude which i dunno what happen to him today as maybe i’m not as regular customer or their restaurant is busy enuff for not necessary to hav us to be the customer as he told me if i’m trying to order dessert roti which is a low price item during lunch hour they wouldn’t really wan to do it as although mamak in msia is a place which can order a drink to sit there for chit chatting or … but not with their shop since this kind of customer expenses can’t even cover the minimum salary …blah blah blah.. was got a bit shock since i don’t think it’s pleasant to said this to customer. We still sit there to finish our meal but overall it’s really not a pleasant dining experience cause i believe service should remain although business has been expanded especially being a boss. This is just my personal experience. Thanks.

My friend and I went there as we thought of finding a place that taste similar to what we have back home in Malaysia. Char Kway Teow is pretty good unfortunately not the tom yam fried rice. Initially we thought of ordering the freshly made roti, but we both agreed is bit overprice. There is fresh roti around that charge at lower price.

I am not Malaysian but have lived in KL and this is exactly how I remembered the food. Right-down to the plastic side plates. The owner is very keen to give you are run through of the menu so that those not familiar with the selections understand the options and taste.

Start with the soft shell crab and try their freshly made Roti’s.

Well worth a trip into the CBD for.

Mamak is a small eatery in the heart of the chancery.

Here you can buy authentic malay style meals for under $15.00.

The service is fast and friendly and the owner and operator remembers your face and has a good sense of humour.

If you like Malaysian it’s a winner

Hi. I came to Auckland for a conference and found this restaurant via the website just few days before I left my country. They served amazing Malaysian foods which were almost similar in tastes and presentations like the one in Malaysia. I had the mee goreng mamak, teh tarik and popiah. Awesome. Nice ambiance. Clean and cozy. The Malay words that they printed on the wall were very entertaining. Very creative. Friendly owners. Great job Jeffrey and wife!

Highly recommend to all Malaysians who plans to visit Auckland someday!!

Ziera was here from 21st November till 26th, 2011

I love coming here! Their menu is simple but covers all the malaysian favourites. I really enjoy the curry chicken roti and although it does not look like much when it comes out, there is plenty of chicken and the flaky roti is endless

Great place to grab a quick yum feed without feeling bad about parting with your money

Great authentic food and well priced. They’re busy for good reason, so best to make a reservation if you can. Good friendly service

I been to this place many times now and I am not disappointed with the food at all!

Food: It is really delicious. A must try -The dessert prata and the seafood laksa..everything seems to taste authentic…great that is how the end product should be.

Price: Reasonable and they do give you a large portion. Great for sharing.

Location: Suitable for a group of 6 max. Good place for both Lunch and Dinner.

If you like the price of going to the food-court…why not go to a more fancier environment at the chancery square.

Enjoy!

Best and most authentic seafood laksa I have ever had – fresh and plenty of seafood in it, AMAZING rotis. Might need to bring my own chilli however as theirs doesnt quite pack the punch I’m looking for. I’m on a wedding diet which allows me one free day a week and I intend to spend every one of those here. Devine.

Had two great meals here in the last few days. Situated in a nice quiet spot in the city, Mamak has smaller affordable dishes so that you can enjoy more flavours at a reasonable price. I had lamb curry, Sambal prawns, Roti and Soft Shell Crab. All the flavours were fabulous, the ingredients fresh and authentic and the service great. Good price for these outstanding dishes makes this a great place in the city.

I’ve been here many times, even bringing friends along. Love the food. It’s authentic, tasty and reasonably-priced. Service was impeccable too.
Highly recommended. The laksa is good, mamak mee goreng is yum and roti tisue is just heavenly..

i agree the roti was too crispy but the fish gravy was good, not so much the dhal

My workmates and I have been having lunch here every week for at least a month now. Although quiet and empty when we first started (the restaurant is relatively new) it soon got to the point where we were being turned away because there were simply not enough tables! Lots of vegetarian choices ensures everyone in the group can be happy. Particularly recommend the mee goreng. The freshly made roti were tasty but almost too crispy.
