Curry House

Really good spot and glad we came here. On a Sunday, there was a lot of space available though the restaurant was still busy.Food came out Asian style - as in it comes out once it's ready, and the apps came out within 10 minutes of us placing the order. The noodle didn't take that much longer.Before we started eating, we were contemplating ordering more but we're glad we didn't! The portion sizes of the noodles and satay tofu is pretty big. I imagine most things on the menu are of good size as well. Flavors are on point, though I tried to get our noodles "less spicy" but they took out the spice entirely. So if you plan to order a spicy dish, either keep it as is or know that they likely don't do a milder spice option.

A few nice dishes among a sea of very similar ones.We came to Curry House after a short run and were very hungry to say the least. Seating was wide open around 8pm as we strolled in and the staff were very attentive to us.We ordered several dishes, including a Curry Beef, Chow fun, and Sizzling Tofu. the standout was the tofu as none of us expected it be so soft on the inside while being so crispy on the outside. It soft texture mixed very well with the sauce it came in to be an overall, surprisingly light dish.All the curry dishes we ordered tended to blend in with each other. While it would have been nice to distinguish each curry from the next, I understand that they were fundamentally very similar.In end, a lot of the dishes were hard to separate. The nice thing was that our server gave a free bingsu-like dessert at the end. I only wish it had actually tasted like anything other than artificial sugar and water.

It's noodle soup season. If you enjoy a curry noodle soup that won't break the bank, check out Curry House on your next trip to Chinatown.I had bookmarked Curry House for a while now and was glad we finally decided to visit on a chilly fall afternoon. First impression, there were multiple families dining there and the tables are spaced out comfortably enough, which was welcoming. Although we were hungry, we decided to first order two appetizers and two noodle dishes to be on the safe side. It's been more than a year since our trip to Southeast Asia, so we had to order some satay skewers. We opted for the beef satay, although lacking some smokiness from being cooked on charcoal, was quite flavorful and moist. We also ordered the omelette with oysters, which was large and great for sharing. We had to try the curry noodle soups and we chose the one with beef brisket. Although the beef brisket was nice and tender, I thought the curry soup base could use a little more complexity in taste. My favorite dish was easily the silver pin noodles with shrimp, the noodles were nice and chewy and the portion was generous. We managed to just finish all the food and ordered ABC shaved ice as dessert. The ice was nice and fluffy. Overall, the service was quick and the servers were friendly.

When the place is packed on a weekday afternoon, in a neighborhood filled with amazing eats, you know it's probably pretty good. It's safe to judge a Malaysian restaurant by their Nasi Lemak, so I knew I was going to order that when I solo dined here recently. They kept it traditional, complete with crispy anchovies, hard boiled egg, sambal and peanuts. I paired it with a satay chicken app. The portions and the crowd were harbingers of good things to come.The chicken satay came with 4 generous skewers of dark meat, with that signature sweet marinade and peanut sauce over it. I found both chicken satay and nasi lemak serviceable but not so memorable. I think it's about the quality of the ingredients. As a solo diner, I also found the portions, which were mostly family sized, made it difficult to try more of their menu.The flavors were solid and the kitchen was pretty efficient however. I like WokWok across the way for some of my other favorite Malaysian dishes.

This cute little eatery is tuck away on Pell Street closer to Bowery in the heart of the nostalgic part of Chinatown from my childhood. The staff is friendly, one gave me trendy, nosy, auntie vibes, lol. Note: make sure your full party is either present or nearby (they get busy). The space itself is bigger than I thought, lots of tables, and the space is broad. I "thought" I was going with the beef silver pin noodles and got a whiff of the fried rice from another table.... needless to say, no more noods! I chose the chicken & shrimp variety, and it was absolutely delicious. I wish they had hot oil or chili crisp, but their homemade chili sauce was tasty. The portion was plentiful so I had lunch for the next day. I'm still thinking about that roti will definitely see them again.

I've been back to this restaurant too many times to not right an updated review. As per before, the best thing here is the Nasi Lemak which is both a massive portion for the price and is also a very flavorful excellent take on it. The rice could be a little bit better flavored but otherwise no complaints. The Satay here are excellent also with a particularly good beef one but the chicken is also great. Also, they have an excellent take on char kway teow listed as Penang Kueh Teow done the traditional way though I of course order it without squid and there's plenty of meat in there regardless of that including a whole lot of lap cheong/Chinese sausage and shrimp with a good amount of wok hei. The Silver Pin Noodles are also pretty good as is the roti canai which comes with one piece which is pretty common. Other dishes I've had have included the decent Pan Fried Rice Cakes, the very tasty Malaysian Style Spare Ribs, the ok Bird's Nest/Oyster Omelette, and the pretty good Eggplant Okra Petai Bean & String Bean with Belacan Sauce and Sambal Beef. As I've mentioned prior and other people mention, the weakest thing here is ironically the actual curry and if they named themselves Noodle House, I think it would be more appropriate for what you actually should order here. I love this place and I wish I didn't as much as it is taking me away from the other Malaysian spot I like Rasa which unfortunately is a lot pricier by comparison but has better service. Upper 4 for the good dishes and the good deals especially in the rice section.

My husband and I haven't had Malaysian food in a LONG time. Our fave Malaysian restaurant in Vegas closed. Anyways, we were in town for a long weekend and my husband's friend recommended this place. Service was great as they were very attentive while we were there. We also received a complimentary desert by (not sure if she was owner) and she was so friendly. The restaurant was bigger than it looked from the outside and they had a good amount of seating. Everything on the menu looked good. We ordered Roti, Satay beef & chicken, curry, Haianese Chicken and wonton noodle soup. All 4 of us almost left nothing on the table lol. We did have a couple of satay left but we did damage on the food lol. It was both our son's first time eating Malaysian and we are so glad they enjoyed it. Overall our experience here was great and would definitely come back when we're back in NYC. If you are in Chinatown, try this place, definitely recommend it

Came by for an early lunch with a friend; when we arrived around 11:30am on a weekend, the place was pretty empty still but slowly got busier during our meal.We ordered a few dishes to share:- roti canai: yum.  the roti was very tasty, nicely crispy and fluffy. The curry sauce was a bit too salty, although still it paired well with the roti. Would recommend.- satay chicken: the satay sauce admittedly looked a little unappetising when served, but thankfully appearances can be deceiving sometimes. The chicken was so delicious - very tender and juicy, well-cooked with just the right amount of char - and the satay sauce was fantastic. I love the peanut flavour coming through as well.- beef chow fun: not bad, although nothing too special. The noodles were pretty average - not too chewy, not too hard - and overall it was about as one would expect a plate of chow fun to taste like. The beef slices were good, very savoury and flavourful.Very yummy overall, and other than the great food, the price point was excellent, and we even had a little bit leftover for our next meal as well! Will definitely come back to try some of their other classic dishes (keen to try the char kuay teow and hokkien mee).

Homestyle Combination on Rice for $12 is a deal! The star is the beef curry. It is actually spicy and very flavorful. The chicken is okay but nothing crazy. I was so stuffed and felt I had a great, cheap meal!The service is fast and fine. When I came, three big tables came for just roti canai as a food tour maybe? But this did not slow down my order.

Really good curry and the young taufu fried well and flavorful. The fish stuffing is so flavorful. Classic done right.
