“ We have been wanting a roti since we arrived in Melaka and this place did not disappoint. We had roti canai, the curry additions are left on your table so you can help yourself, a good idea. The food was tasty and very filling and the staff were friendly. It was busy with locals so it must be popular. If we were here for longer, we'd definitely return. Nice tea tarik too. ”
“ Flavorful food with fast and friendly service. The veg set meal included a number of dishes served on a banana leaf and each one stood out in its own right. I ordered plain dosa as takeaway and it remained soft and retained all its goodness even after 3 hours when it was finally consumed. ”
“ The food was good and the service was super fast. Will definitely come again if I’m in Melaka. Not giving an over-the-top rating though, ’cause I’ve had other Indian restaurants that were even better. ”
“ It's not difficult to locate this restaurant as it's located on the main road and at the intersection of traffic junction. Tried the roti telur bawang, tosai and nasi lemak and had teh tarik. The food is served pretty fast and it's tasty and portion is reasonable. Unlimited serving of dhal, fish and chicken curry gravy and different chutney. The restaurant is bright and clean. The servers are friendly ”
“ Try the signature Banana Leaf biryani. A lot of rice and chicken and taste so good. And they even gave us the crackers and refills it when its out. Good services and prices ”
