Finally found a good place for Nasi Lemak in Montreal! We took the Nasi Lemak, Rendang Ayam Beef & the Chicken Noodles & they were all delicious! The hospitality we got from the owners was amazing, they were so nice to us. Honestly, it's totally worth it to go support them, good food & good people! We'll be back for sure! ❤?
This is a small casual eatery. Malay dishes & some Malay style South Indian. It's tasty & a different experience for me. I like South Indian & this is similar but with a twist. Example a nice touch to include fried anchovy in the veggies. The chicken 65 & the Saturday special plate was really good. Portions are good. Chicken roll delicious & less spicy than in some Sri Lankan restaurants. Generally this is spicy food but manageable.. & can't wait to try the nasi lemak.

Unassuming, hole in the wall restaurant. Nasi lemak didn't disappoint. Sambal legit. Two good size chicken (2 drum 1 thigh), generous ikan billis, 1 egg, peanuts, cucumber & the coconut rice. So big plate even my teenage son couldn't finish. Totally worth the $19.95cad. In the states, it would be US$20 with half an egg, only 1 piece of meat & maybe 2-3 slices of cucumber, & half the ikan billis & nuts.
For nut allergy, they can put the nuts on the side.
Next time, we'll order 1 nasi lemak plus extra meat that would be enough for two persons.
Actually next time, we'll try the rendang.
Was lucky to grab a parking spot. Not the place to impress your date but otherwise the food is so good.
A gem in Parc-Ex!
This was a truly beautiful culinary discovery.
The food was incredibly fresh, flavorful, & clearly made with love. We took the Chicken Noodles & Nasi Lemak (highly recommended). As you can see, we completely devoured our dishes!
The owner & his wife, who run the restaurant, provided a warm & welcoming service. They took the time to guide us through the menu & give us great recommendations.
You truly sense the passion behind every dish. I highly recommend this spot & will absolutely be coming back.
A true must-try!!!
I got the Saturday special & the chicken 65 for entrée. I think the highlight of the dish is the chicken 65 which is also in the Saturday special, you get a lot of different flavors in 1 dish. There's fish, shrimps, chicken curry, vegetables & fried chicken. The portion is really good for the price! I'm definitely coming back to try something else because I'm not the biggest fan of seafood but I think someone who likes shrimp would enjoy this dish.
The 4.8 score does not lie. This is perhaps one of the most underrated spots in town. This restaurant seriously serves some of the tastiest dishes you'll ever have in Montreal. I've eaten here three times now & I'm hooked on their chicken noodles dish. Fresh, crispy vegetables, tasty chicken, perfect noodles & a generous portion. Canada Best is mos def the best of Canada.👌🏽

Incredible Malaysian food in Park Ex, one of the few in Montreal. Warm service in multiple languages, incredible food. The $22 meat thali (available on Saturday only) has a variety of curry & easily feeds two people. Chicken rolls are delicious & filling & a great value.
we had beef rendang & nasi lemak, then a mango lassi & masala chai for our walk home, it was perfect. food was delicious, the spicy anchovy chutney was quite spicy for me but so good i braved myself to eat all of it, the boiled egg helped a lot actually. the spices on the fried chicken was very delicious too! & the crispy anchovies! the sour chutney on the rendang was also very yummy!
i really appreciate the kind owners' detailed attention to the food & drinks they make & to their customers. go here to support your local business!

Friendly owners. Everything I've had here has been super delicious -- from the kottu roti, ayam rendang to the friend chicken noodles, it's all great! Edit: Consistently good. Arguably the best restaurant in Parc-Ex, & one of my faves in the city.
We had the banana leaf special on Saturday, that was a feast. The chicken was fall off the bone tender, the shrimps were delicious & the dhal was flavourful. Everything was great.

Was walking in the neighborhood & searched on Google for recommended places, & this restaurant popped up. Was welcomed by a very nice & friendly man & he gave me good suggestions. The food was great. I ordered Nasi Lemak & noodles/ chicken. Spicy & flavorful. The family back home agreed & was happy about this discovery.
Fantastic nasi lemak & mango lassi, very fragrant coconut rice & delicious sambal with crispy chicken drumsticks & anchovies. Owned by a lovely Sri Lankan & Malaysian couple. Will be coming back.
Extremely delicious Malaysian Food with South Indian food! We Had Nasi Limak which had consisted of Spicy Fried Chicken with crispy anchovies , Coconut Rice with egg , cucumber & A type of spicy Curry Sauce. Each of which tasted amazing ! Their fish cutlet & Chicken rolls were on point as well!! 11/10
My partner is Chinese Malaysian & said the Nasi Lemak tasted just like at home. I tried it with a new option they were trying out with sambal fish & it was great! The sambal is spicy; I thought it was nice that they have a mix of spicy & non-spicy dishes on the menu. I ended up having *two* mango lassis -- great fresh mango taste with a hint of coconut. The restaurant was also trying out a new soup with a chicken & lemongrass broth & winter vegetables, which I really hope they officially add to the menu for winter. Definitely recommend.
