We are from out of town and were starting to get disappointed in the Montréal food scene but then we discovered this little gem. As someone who spent a lot of time in Singapore, the Malay dishes from here take me back. Generous portions, flavours are spot on, food feels home-cooked and the owner is super sweet. We're seriously debating coming back here for some takeout on our way out.

The 4.8 score does not lie. This is perhaps one of the most underrated spots in town. This restaurant seriously serves some of the tastiest dishes you'll ever have in Montreal. I've eaten here three times now and I'm hooked on their chicken noodles dish. Fresh, crispy vegetables, tasty chicken, perfect noodles and a generous portion. Canada Best is mos def the best of Canada.

This is such a nice spot and really affordable, the food really brought us back to our trip to Bali. The husband and wife team were super nice and welcoming too! Loved the nasi lemak and the rendang ayam!

An authentic, homestyle dining experience, this place is truly underrated and deserves all the recognition it can get! From the moment we walked in, we were greeted by the sweet and friendly staff, whose attentive service made our experience even more enjoyable. The menu is a delightful journey through the diverse flavors of Indian cuisine, and I can confidently say that it's one of the best and most flavorful we've tried so far. The Nasi Lemak it was amazing, bursting with flavor and beautifully presented. Each component was thoughtfully crafted and made for a satisfying meal. Additionally, the fact that everything is halal is a great bonus, ensuring that everyone can enjoy. It is a fantastic dining destination that should not be overlooked. With its incredible food, warm service, and welcoming atmosphere.

A gem in Parc-Ex! This was a truly beautiful culinary discovery. The food was incredibly fresh, flavorful, and clearly made with love. We took the Chicken Noodles and Nasi Lemak (highly recommended). As you can see, we completely devoured our dishes! The owner and his wife, who run the restaurant, provided a warm and welcoming service. They took the time to guide us through the menu and give us great recommendations. You truly sense the passion behind every dish. I highly recommend this spot and will absolutely be coming back. A true must-try!!!

I got the Saturday special and the chicken 65 for entrée. I think the highlight of the dish is the chicken 65 which is also in the Saturday special, you get a lot of different flavors in 1 dish. There's fish, shrimps, chicken curry, vegetables and fried chicken. The portion is really good for the price! I'm definitely coming back to try something else because I'm not the biggest fan of seafood but I think someone who likes shrimp would enjoy this dish.

Incredible Malaysian food in Park Ex, one of the few in Montreal. Warm service in multiple languages, incredible food. The $22 meat thali (available on Saturday only) has a variety of curry and easily feeds two people. Chicken rolls are delicious and filling and a great value.

The best place in Montreal (and maybe Canada) for Malaysian food. Hole-in-the-wall kind of place owned by a lovely Sri-Lankan and Malaysian couple. I've been to Malaysia and their Nasi Goreng and Nasi Lemak is better than a lot of places I've tried in Malaysia. Very friendly people and service too.
