Lazat Malaysian Niddrie - Melbourne

I had the most delicious takeout from this place tonight. The food was fresh, tasty, and there was plenty of it.

Located on Keilor Road, this restaurant offers delicious Malaysian cuisine with great lunch specials, making it a perfect spot for a quick meal. We tried their laksa and nasi lemak and were impressed with the flavors. The staff is friendly and attentive, and I often order takeout during lunchtime. The menu also offers a diverse range of options for dinner.

Tonight, four of us dined at this restaurant. Upon entering, we found the atmosphere to be inviting, lovely, and cozy, although there was a slight unusual smell. I ordered taro milk tea, tom yum soup, and a chicken roti roll. I felt that the drink could have been larger for the price. The tom yum soup was rich in flavor, and I am interested in trying the laksa next time. The chicken roti was decent. My companions ordered green tea, Vietnamese iced coffee, beer, roti, vegetable laksa, chicken with vegetables, and salt and pepper squid. They all commented that their meals were excellent.

Very happy that we stopped and had a meal at Lazat Malay Restaurant as the food was just delicious. Having a craving (oddly) for sweet and sour pork and some fried rice, we looked through the menu and made an order of sweet and sour pork $18.8, salted fish and chicken fried rice $13.8 which was just deliciously perfect and we could've just had that on it's own. Also a serving of stir fried belechan string beans $16.8 went down a treat. Oh and for entree, a staple chicken and corn soup $6.0. To wash it down and also to wake up a little, a vietnamese ice coffee. Oddly this was a Malaysian restaurant so we guess they had a mixture of asian dishes and drinks but hey, we weren't complaining. Was the food laced with MSG, yeah probably but we expected it to be and thankful it wasn't to much.<br/ <br/ We feel that the decor and promotion of the restaurant isn't doing the food justice, if anything it's doing it a dis-service as the food is so delicious. A revamp of the internal decor with some traditional bespoke furniture, lighting and decorations along with getting rid of that tacky led sign out front and replaced with a more flattering and classy sign would do wonders. In saying that, for a Monday afternoon it wasn't quiet and in fact, it was quite busy. The one waitress who seemed to be doing it all (we think it's the owner as the husband/chef was in the kitchen) was managing (just) with a pretty busy floor. Well done to her. We'll be back again and/or will definitely order takeaway. Till next time, this is Our Foodie Find.

Went there last week to celebrate my 20th Birthday with my best friends , i really enjoyed the meal , the staff were very polite and patient considering we took a while to decide what we wanted to order but all in all a great night :
