The first thing I order in any Malaysian cafe or restaurant is usually Char Kuey Teow. I feel that if a restaurant can do a great Char Kuey Teow, the rest of the menu would be great too. Having heard so many good reviews about the Straits Cafe, I decided to try it during the Stage 4 lockdown period. I don't live within the suburbs they deliver to, but the owner kindly offered delivery for me on condition that I'm happy for it to arrive after 2pm. I gladly accepted it.... Yummy delicious food is worth waiting for 😋. I ordered Char Kuey Teow, Sar Hor Fun and Nasi Lemak Curry Chicken.
At 2.15pm, my doorbell rang and my order was delivered. Despite the distance, the food was still very warm, like it's just out from the kitchen! My partner and happily devoured our lunch.
OMG the Char Kuey Teow indeed was the best I've ever had! I like that I could request for extra wok hei and pork lard. The Sar Hor Fun was really good too, so is the Nasi Lemak.
I can't wait to try the other items in the menu.
Quick service, clean and authentic tasting Malaysian Chinese food. They char Kwai teow tastes just like what I ate in Penang. Would recommend!
Always driven past, so I stop by to grab lunch, I order the Hokken mee and it was so tasty, it brought me back to Malaysia. Rojak is good too that I kept the leftover sauce for when I have fruit at home. All of it has been very home style for my experience and great staff
We ordered the special duck noodle and it’s yum yum
Love the food- the flavour and texture of the dishes reminded me of the food I once had (when I was younger). Took my parents here and they said it taste better than what they had in Malaysia. Must try Poh piah, sar hor fun and char tong hun.
We came here for dinner on a Saturday. The place was quite packed when we arrived. We decided to order the popiah, sar hor fun, char tang hoon and ipoh hor fun to share. My favourite dish was the sar hor fun. The char on the noodles was excellent. The food was nice and the portions were sizeable. The only let down was the ice kacang. The syrup tasted like cough mixture and the ice wasn't shaved fine enough. Service was efficient.
My family and I are regulars here, but haven't visited in a while. We come back for its efficient service, tasty and simple Malaysian food. I would die for belachan kang kung and can usually handle the heat but this time round I was dying from its spiciness (we asked for mild) and the char tang hoon was a nice ratio of noodles and seafood. We also had Hainanise chicken rice to share - good portion for one, and the Sar Hor Fun - don't be deceived by its sloopy appearance.

Super authentic Malaysian cuisine. It does get super busy here so try to avoid peak times maybe have a slightly early lunch or slightly later lunch if you don’t want to wait. Food and staff here are amazing and prices are reasonable !
Tried this place once last week, looking forward to visiting again. Tried the hainanese chicken rice and curry with roti, both were flavoursome and reasonably priced!
