Ordered the food online through Uber eats and requested for a swap of ingredients for the Yong tofu. They did it for me without charge and also gave me a bag of free prawn crackers. Food was delicious also :)
I came on a late Saturday night and greeted by lovely staff. Food was amazing and will be returning for sure. Thank you for the great service.
Delicious cuisine, friendly and prompt service! Suzanne was so lovely and generous - she heard how worried I was about running out of toilet paper during the Coronavirus outbreak and she gave me some to take home to my family! Can't beat that for service - She said that if any customer was desperate she would be willing to help. Would definitely eat there again, really enjoyed the meal and time out with friends.
Food: Top notch Malaysian Chinese!
Service: Hit n miss. But mostly okay. Boss lady is friendly.
Ambience: Not too bad but harder with children.
Value: Bang for buck
😱Lizzie’s first impression: Quick, easy and delicious soup.
🍩Lizzie enjoyed: I love coming here to order the six pieces of stuffed tofu with noodle soup. It really reminds me of home. The idea is that you select 6 of the vegies stuffed tofus of your choice and they will cook it up in the clear noodle soup that honestly tastes delicious.
🍅Lizzie did not enjoy: It’s not a fancy restaurant but it has renovated and looks way better than it used to.
🥇Lizzie rates overall: love this spot so much for an easy lunch
Hearty Malaysian Food.
We went here for a Christmas eve dinner and came quite late so we called in advance and they were so accommodating! The place wasn't the fanciest but well kept.
Had stir-fried seafood kwetiauw, beef rendang nasi lemak, chicken feet dry noodle, hainanese chicken rice, and combination laksa and they were all delish. YES I am pretty damn impressed. I think you wouldn't go wrong with anything really, judging from my experience there. Portion was satisfying, waiting time wasn't long and food was delish. How I hope this place is close to me :')
But yes do check it out, perfect place for malay food!

Home to the best Yong To Fu in Melbourne! Yong To Fu is stuffed vegetable with fish paste.
This place never dissappoints. This family owned joint serves authentic Malaysian food at its best.From their ala carte items to dishes on the menu.Had their yong tofu and it was so good,you get a choice to select your own soup based (clear soup,tom yum and curry) and your choice of noodles. I would always go for the curry soup based and it is amazing. The yong tofu choices are good and it goes really well with the soup and noodles
Be sure to try their combination seafood noodles as they are really good.
great places to order dishes to share with rice! not quite a fan of their individual dishes - prefer laksa king’s individual dishes.
these dishes are great!
cantonese pork chop
cereal prawns
yam ring chicken
homemade egg tofu
beef rendang
My score 4.25 stars (this is a composite of 2 reviews). J and I had lunch here on Tue 9th of July.
I had Yong Tofu ($13.80) and I chose this combo: Curry soup, medium spicy, very curryish, quite salty. Nice and aromatic. Gritty down bottom of bowl. Hokkien noodles, plenty of them and held texture till the bowl was empty. 1 x chive fishcake (lesser), 1 x fish chinese donut (YUM), 1 x flat beancurd stuffed with fish (YUM), 1 x prawn dumpling (ok), 1 x tofu-stuffed beancurd (nice), 1 x pork and prawnball thingie (quite good , not too meaty).
J also had Yong Tofu: Curry soup. Rice noodles, plenty, silky but nice (maybe a bit soft, esp by the end of the bowl). 3 x tofu-stuffed beancurd (nice), 1 x chive fishcake (salty, a bit fishy, firm to the bite), 1 x vegetarian prawn (nice), 1 x beancurd fishball (light and fluffy and very nice, would have more next time). Both bowls had bok choy bits, beanshoots and fried shallots (sprinkled on top).
Service friendly. Atmosphere relaxed. Their spoons have a hook so it doesn’t slide into your soup (FAB)! Very filling and very tasty! Would have given 4.5, but is a little dearer than laksa’s round the corner (which are great too).
10months ago. J and I had lunch here for the first time. Not as busy as CL or LK, darker and less modern interior. We ordered a Yong Tofu and a Nasi Lemak w chicken curry.
The Nasi Lemak was better at both CL and LK round the corner – the serve was the least generous of the 3 places and the chicken was dry (major disappointment, as it’s one of my all time fav dishes).
The Yong Tofu was fab (good for vegetarians/pescatarians)! We probably blitzed 4 out of the 6 stuffed tofu - wouldn’t have the capsicum or eggplant again (a little bland). Worth visiting just for the Yong Tofu!
We'd been taking about Yong Tofu for a couple of days so we came here with exactly this in mind. They have to give you this little ticket at the table first before you can order. A decent selection to choose from, so we ordered at the counter and settled back in anticipation.
The results were two authentic, full-bodied serves, one with curry soup, the other one with chicken soup. I enjoyed the eggplant stuffed fish and the bean curd fish. My friend liked the bean curd sheets and donut stuffed fish.
They serve many other Malaysian favourites in this casual, no fuss setting. At $17.80 each it's not the cheapest place for Yong Tofu, but it was worth it IMO.
No frills Malaysian restaurant where you can get either individual dishes or main shared dishes. The yong Tofu was excellent with sour refreshing soup. Beef Rendang was soft and seasoned nicely which goes really well with the coconut rice. Definitely busy during rush hour so call ahead to book.

Nice local family business offering great Malaysian food.
We eat here so many time and always quite satisfied with the food.
Service is good, 2 aunties and uncle are very friendly and welcoming even they are busy all the time. They remember us whenever we come and always chit chat a bit.
Good selection of food and most of them are great. We highly recommend laksa, taro chicken, cereal prawns, sambal prawns, xo fried rice and especially their signature silky M Yong tofu. Salt and pepper squid is great for entrée. Variety of drinks and desserts too.
Please note they only accept cash now, no card accepted so ensure you bring cash with you.
Been going to the three Malaysian restaurants on this block for years, M Yong Tofu has taken over as our go to over Chef Lagenda and Laksa King. Home-style dishes that are more authentic tasting than the other two. With Chef Lagenda closed for renovations, this has been our only option.
QUINTESSENTIALLY MALAYSIAN
Delightfully casual restaurant on busy Racecourse Road in Flemington. In the same strip as Laksa King and Chef Leganda.
Delicious and authentic Malaysian dishes in a friendly no frills setting. Fast service, many menu options and always a lively crowd.
Its very popular but the turnover is fairly quick so, if waiting for a tavble, it shouldn't be too long.
The tables are jammed in tightly so expect to be up close and personal to the diners at the next table :) People with mobility issues will struggle a little because of the this. Try for a table right at the front of the dining room if so.
We tried the Hainanese chicken (delicious) and a plate of char kway teow each (pretty good and quite a large serve).
Very nice lady serving us.
Came here with my partner and mate, all enjoyed our meals.
I had the bbq pork dry noodles which was super delicious. It's everything I hoped for.
I would definitely come here again if I'm in the area.
Seriously good Malaysian food. All the best dishes you find at a hawkers centre under one roof. Very friendly staff that are really helpful too!
One of the best Yong Tofu
Not a lot of shops in Melbourne that sell Yong Tofu in Melb. So M Yong Tofu become the default options for it.
Selections could be more but if you are the only one that sell the food, it is kinda hard to compare innit?
Overall it is tasty, great menu and overall a good service but price can be cheaper. Ordered one bowl Yong Tofu and I paid $20 with a drink. A tad bit expensive for a yong tofu
