We are truly impressed with the food and the service here! Coming all the way from Melbourne, all we know about Malaysian and Indo food are laksa, satay, nasi goreng, nasi lemak, hainanese chicken and bak kut teh. There were simply not much to choose from, even in a big city like Melbourne! So we did not expect to be so blown away by a restaurant in Adelaide, but we did!
The first time we ordered flying bread, which came out super crunchy and flaky and was served along side a dhal dipping sauce. It's perfection in a dish! We also had a fillet fish curry, which looks like a thai red curry but may even be more delicious! The fish fillets were fresh, juicy, crunchy and soaked with the flavourful curry sauce. Yum!! Another thing we had was the flaming pork. This one was really nice as well, if you're a fan of sweet and sour pork. The dish was wrapped in foil and lit on fire upon serving, which was quite nice to watch! Our absolute favourite dish however, is the sambal squid dish. The squid was really fresh, the smell and taste is absolutely divine! A couple sitting next to us ordered this one on our first visit and it smells so wonderful that we said to ourselves we have to come back to try it out. And it did live up to, may be even surpassed our expectations!
One thing we also have to mention is the service from everyone at Hut and Soul had been truly wonderful on both of our visits. What we tend to notice in some Asian restaurants is that the service can be quite lacklustre, abrupt and sometimes borderline rude, but everyone here were really welcoming and hospitable. My husband commented that it feels like dining in a friend's house! The selection of background music is really nice too! Special thanks to the gentleman who served us both times (who is in one of the photos 😊). He was so friendly and gave us some really good suggestions for the dishes and where to go in Adelaide.
We would love to come back next time when we've got a chance to come back to Adelaide! 😊
Once again thank you for the great experience!

Only ordered and tried their Yee Sang and it was really good! Purely authentic Malaysian style and delicately presented. Staff are very friendly and helpful, explaining all the ingredients and their meanings.
In a nutshell, better Malaysian food than what you'd get in most Kuala Lumpur restaurants. The attention to detail in terms of spice balance and contrast is impressive. I eat here every time I visit from Brisbane and each time, the consistency is always impressive; sign of a kitchen with integrity. Standout dishes: Satay, Laksa, Nasi Lemak, Lamb Shank Curry, Prawns in Cereal, Rendang ...in fact, the whole menu!
Food here was delicious, with a range of classic Malaysian, Singaporean and Indonesian dishes. The decor is quite nice and the staff were very welcoming. The Singapore sling and beef rendang were both delicious
Being a Malaysian myself & living in Adelaide CBD, I had to check out Hut & Soul. I wasn’t disappointed. The restaurant ambience gave off a Malaysian feel & the deco which originated from Malaysia added to it. The food was great. I especially loved the Ikan Bakar, which I totally recommend. We had the crepe for dessert, another must try Malaysian delight. Can’t wait to go back again to try other dishes.
I decided to have a quick lunch in this renowned resto.They have a set menu for lunch which comprises of 6 dishes and drinks.
I had nasi goreng which was tasty,less oily,and had a perfect portio size for one.
Good ambience and staff.
I will go again to try their dinner menu.cheers

The Spot: I have to say, normally I’m charmed by shabby decor in an Asian restaurant, but in this case I think it does a bit of a disservice to the high quality of food and service of this place. You really shouldn’t judge this book by its cover.
The Service: I really rate waitstaff who are knowledgeable and enthusiastic about their recommendations, and this place does not falter. Fantastic information and suggestions to a group who are arguably novices to this cuisine.
The Food: entrée was the Malaysian Flying Bread, and I must emphasise that I am no expert in roti and am aware of the fervor with which many judge it. All I can say is that it was crunchy, fluffy, not drenched in oil, had a lovely chew and was served with a delicious dip. We wanted to save most of it for the mains, so we ordered two servings. Mains were Gulai Lamb Shank, Nyonya Prawn, a shrimp watercress special that I’ve forgotten the name of, and a couple of servings of rice. The lamb was delicious and fell off the bone - not too sweet or salty, but personally would have like a bit more heat. The prawns were a great contrast, tangy and sweet, and generous with small yet juicy prawns. The watercress has similar relatives in other Asian cuisines but its additions worked really well to add interest and texture. The desserts were what tipped this to a 4/5 for me. I did not expect their beautiful and unique presentation. We had the Mango Panna Cotta, Pandan Coconut Crepe and the Black and Red. Loved them all, especially the black and red, but I have a personal affinity to red bean and grains in desserts. They were all that perfect balance between sweet and savoury that I adore in Asian desserts, and I’m sorry to obsess over this but they nailed the multi-textures.
Would definitely revisit if I’m in town again to try other things on their extensive menu. Please forgo the PappaRich’es of this world and try this place.
Came here for a family dinner/catch up. Entrees were amazing, which was a good start (especially the avocado fries as mentioned in other reviews). I would seriously come here and just order entrees. Main course was hit and miss, some great and some just ok. Service was very slow. Fortunately everything came out intermittently so we weren't left starving for excessive periods but it made for a very long meal. Naan bread on the side was delicious, but small serves. Desserts were slightly above the usual standard you'd expect in an Asian restaurant. Overall, I'd give this place another try just to see more of the menu options.
Amazing service!
The recommendations from the owner were sensational
Brilliant food, personal service and an excellent wine list
Definitely recommend five stars
Really yummy food, especially the avocado fries! Well priced and really good service. Will definitely be back soon and would definitely recommend to others.
Incredible service and the food was absolutely stunning! Portion sizes were ample and it was a lovely experience to share the entree and main meals. The atmosphere was calm and quiet considering the restaurant was quite busy. We will definitely be back and recommend to others.
Honestly, this place doesn’t need any introduction. Everyone I know literally said, “oh my god, yeah, I loooove Hut and Soul”, right after I told them that we were there.
We were there for my FIL’s birthday, we had the banquet so we can try a bit of everything, and every single one of them did not disappoint. My favorite from the banquet was the fish curry and the pandan crepe, they were ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️, but everything else were also 🤌🏼🤌🏼🤌🏼🤌🏼✨✨✨✨, if you don’t speak emoji: they were divine! which was also my MIL’s testament.
I love the ambiance and the service. Everyone took care of us really well. To say that we were happy at the end of the night was an understatement - We were superbly content!
Thank you, Hut and Soul!
Visiting for two days and discovered this gem by chance. What a fantastic meal. The staff are kind and welcoming with efficient service. The food was authentic and really delicious. Highly recommend this experience.
First time here and we loved it! The crispy duck and satay are amazing! Have to come back soon to try more.

Coming from South East Asia myself, I can strongly recommend this place for anyone seeking good Malaysian/Indonesian/Singaporean food at a reputable establishment. We thoroughly enjoyed the food and the service was excellent. The ambience was really nice as well. It may be on the pricier end but is a good option to consider when looking for a place to eat on a special night out.
Nice, cozy, great ambiance, great value Asian food.
Everything is neat and clean. Staff are nice and friendly.
Food come out a bit slow (~20mins) for starter but very very good taste. You will be well-fed for sure :)
We have the chicken satay, the chicken was juicy and flavorful, the satay sauce was excellent with a hint of spicy, not too rich that overwhelming the chicken.
Laksa was also good and huge, my partner likes it but I found it is a bit light in flavour.
My fav was the Nasi Goreng and the sambal kangkong, realllll yumm and go super well with each other. The little minus point is the sambal kangkong was a bit too salty, but the taste is just awesome!!!
Great place to check out xxx
Excellent Roti, very good range of vegan options, attentive but not overbearing staff, not too noisy, good valued for better quality menu. Parking not too bad after 5:30pm on the side streets. Has outdoor option. Lighting a bit too dim.
Tasty Malaysian cuisine, friendly staff. Love the desserts! Must try the panden coconut crepe and the Red &Black
