Satay

Excellent Malaysian food. Had the Nasi Lemak and the flavor was just right good size serving rendang was very good just the right amount of spice. The mee siam was also good not to sweet Large menu although a little expensive. Definitely looking forward to a return visit. char kuey tow, Laksa, Satay So upsetting to see they are now permanently closed

Highly recommend Satay. Hands down the best Malaysian food in Houston right now. Agree with the other reviews that it's what you would get in KL or Singapore. Very authentic, high quality ingredients and excellent preparation. Service was also great. We have good Malaysian food in Houston but it hasn't been this good since Mata Hari was in the original location on Westheimer many years ago. And Satay is likely better than Mata Hari's was given how the whole restaurant scene has been elevated (along with expectations).

A few friends came into town and we were looking for an Asian restaurant for 7 people (which on a Saturday evening, you can imagine how hard they is!). We found Satay Malaysian restaurant on Yelp and decided to check it out. Walking it, there were 2 if the 10 tables were filled. Jackpot! We were immediately seated. Throughout our meal, the restaurant became half filled up. For our appetizer, we have roti with chicken curry, beef satay and calamari. You can never go wrong with roti with chicken curry (and they definitely didn’t disappoint!). The calamari was perfectly fried and juicy. They didn’t skip out the meat! The beef satay was tender and smoky, perfect for a start. For our dinner, we had the combination fried rice, Maggie Mee Goreong and Sizzling Pepper Chicken. Amazing! The Maggie Mee Goreong was very unique - it was not fully dry but not gravy either. It had the beautiful Malaysian taste. For dessert (yes we managed to squeeze that in!), we had the fried ice cream and the fried banana. The fried ice cream was good but I actually liked the fried banana even better. Overall, amazing food, amazing service. I didn’t want to write about this hidden gem (at least hidden for me) but it was too good to not share!
