I don't normally travel this far out of Fitzroy so never new about this very long withstanding Malaysian restaurant out this way. My Malaysian friend took me here for lunch and said its good quality no fuss Malaysian food.
🔆LOCATION🔆
Malaymas is situated on St. Georges Road in Fitzroy North along a quiet strip of shops.
The interior of the restaurant is quite old looking with exposed brick walls so it makes the whole place look a little dark.
🔆SERVICE🔆
The staff here was friendly and attentive.
The tables were quite clean. Menu and water was provided very promptly.
🔆MENU🔆
Hainanese Chicken Rice, $14.00
🔆VERDICT🔆
I really liked how the chicken was served in a separate dish, and the rice also on a separate plate. The chicken very tender and juicy and was swimming in light soy gravy sauce. There was a separate bowl of light chicken broth which was nice and tasty. There were some chicken pieces that still had a bit of blood oozing out from the bones. I avoided those pieces; otherwise overall it was a nice dish.
Friendly Malaysian restaurant, great for an affordable meal out. We really enjoyed the curry chicken nasi lemak which had an authentic delicious sambal. The curry laksa was average but still enjoyable. The sambal eggplant was not spicy but had more of a dried shrimp flavour. Overall we enjoyed our meals and would be back
Delicious and authentic Malaysian food. The hainanese chicken is deliciously tender and perfectly cooked. I’ve only discovered this gem a couple of months ago, but safe to say I’ll be a regular.
Love this place it serves traditional Malaysian cuisine consistently well at very reasonable prices.
Staff are always happy and it’s efficiently run. Worth a try if you’re in the area.
We are weekly regulars - love the food, love the service. ALWAYS a wonderful experience. Hainanese Chicken Laksa, Satay Sticks, Hor Fun are my picks :)
A new favourite in north Fitzroy! Relaxed atmosphere, friendly service and all the dishes we had are super tasty. The Hainan chicken is especially worth mentioning, and each bite of it is tender and juicy!! Love it!!
I’m a regular here and love it. Authentic Malaysian, family run restaurant with great service and great value for money. My favourites are the beef rendang, roti Chennai, tofu & vegies, laksa with hainan chicken and the mango dessert. But everything I have eaten is yummy!
Finally Good Hainan Chicken Rice.
I found it hard to find Hainan Chicken Rice in Melb.
Chicken is tender, rice is very tasty, comes with a bowl of soup as well.
The second dish I would recommend is its laksa.
Healthy chicken rice kinda day? Definately this is the place!
Definitely one of the highly rated malaysian restaurants in Melbourne. I’ve been here for years and nothing has changed (in a good way). Their food tastes like a home cooked meal. My favourite is definitely their chicken wings and curry laksa with Hainanese chicken!
They got authentic Malaysian foods here that are so tasty. The milk tea was great as well and the staff were friendly. Will keep coming back for sure!
We don't normally travel across Melbourne city just to dine at a restaurant but Malaymas is definitely one of our exceptions.
Everything we had there was delicious and packed with authentic flavors. I highly recommend their curry laksa (we had the fish ball one), fried chicken wings, curry puffs, Hainanese chicken rice and don't forget their ice kacang!!
To top it off, they have a wonderful cast of responsive, friendly and efficient staff members. We were looked after really well and felt like home.
Thank you!

Malaymas is located on the busy strip of St George's Road, but most certainly worth pulling over for.
On the first visit, we ordered roti with beef rendang, rice with satay chicken and combination crispy mee hoon. We went at 6:30pm on a Sunday night and the Hainanese chicken was completely sold out!!! The food could have come out hotter (in temperature, not spice) and the satay chicken was the most average of all three dishes. However, the roti was delicious and fluffy, as was the curry as it had depth of flavour.
The waitress mentioned you had to pre-order the chicken as it was their best seller, so the following week, we ordered takeaway. We HAD to try the chicken! This time we ordered fried kuey teow, seafood crispy mee hoon and a whole Hainanese chicken with rice and soup. ALL dishes were fabulous and we didn't even need to heat any up when we got home—I got the heat I wanted!
Highly recommend if you're looking for an authentic Malaysian experience, just pre-order the chicken when you make a booking!
Authentic Malaysian food... very delicious and good quality. Tried their hainanese chicken rice, malaysian dark hokkien mee, char keuw teow and wan tan hor.... also had fried chicken drumlets too.... roti with condensed milk and curry .... desert green sago with ice and coconut milk..... their teddy bear milk tea is also so nice!!!
The food quality never change from the last visit which is 5 years ago. Very good and authentic Malaysian food. Highly recommended. Will definitely come back.

One of my favourite Malaysian Restaurants in Melbourne. Malaymas is a family run business serving delicious and authentic Malaysian food. Malaymas is a cozy little restaurant with lovely vibe, and friendly service.
What we got:
🍴 Fried Chicken Wings
🍴 Special Fried Veg Balls
🍴 Hainanese Style Chicken
🍴 Fried Kuey Teow
🍴 Roti with Beef Rendang
🍴 Combination Hor Fun
🍴 Hokkien Mee
🥤 Teh Ais
Malaymas have the cute teddy Teh Terik!!! I couldn't resist not getting it haha and it was definitely the best choice. Love the strong tea flavour, not too sweet as well. Definitely recommend booking in advance and pre-ordering their Hainanee Style Chicken because it is so popular. Chicken is so soft and tender, very juicy. Beef Rendang is also a must order - beef is slow cooked so super soft.. I could have more than 2-3 bowls of rice with the hainanese chicken and beef rendang. My favorite dishes at Malaymas!!! Also love their Fried Kuey Teow - Prawns are big and very flavoursome with "wok hey"!
Excellent and authentic Malaysian foods. Must pay for a visit at the very least!
An amazing version of Nasi Lemak. Not spicy, but still absolutely beautiful. The meal was above average size for price, stuck to the Chinese version of the meal. No pickled veggies. Entrees were prompt, reasonably sized and delicious.
The special rice (vegetarian) was huge and very tasty. Service was prompt and friendly.
Definitely going back again.
