About Malaysian Delight
On Ladywell Walk in Birmingham, Malaysian Delight serves Malaysian and Chinese dishes with no reservations, taking walk-ins throughout the day. The kitchen turns out char siu and other roast meats alongside Hainanese chicken rice, and the menu also runs to nasi goreng, curry laksa, and clay pot rice with salted fish. Payment is cash only, though bank transfer is also accepted. The restaurant opens daily, and dishes are available to take away, with a 10% discount on lunch takeaway orders for those eating off site. Street parking can be found nearby for anyone driving in.

Customer Review Summary
Dishes are less consistent. Nasi goreng divides opinion: one calls it close to Malaysia, while others find it unremarkable, more like Chinese special fried rice, or lacking taste. Curry laksa draws mixed reactions, one saying the ingredients did not work together. Others note dry chicken in the chicken rice, an overly sweet mee goreng and thin portions of roast meat. One reviewer reports a takeaway beef stir-fry ho fun that arrived with only noodles, and another mentions slow service, while a birthday party was allowed to cut a cake at the table.

“Food was delicious, Service was extremely slow they didn’t even give us the menu until We sat and waited for 20 minutes. Food was so delicious we thought let’s order extra for takeaway, We ordered several items of the menu expensive ones at that, One of the items was the beef stirfry ho fun, It came in an unusually small Container, They had originally forgot to serve it with a meal when we originally ordered it so we thought to take it with us with the extra items we ordered for takeaway, When we got home, there was no beef in it whatsoever and it was just noodles. We paid a hefty price for just noodles. Service is slow, Food is delicious, but they scammed us. Beware.”

“Such a great find!! The food was exceptional, service quick, and vibe was really nice and relaxed. I'll absolutely be coming here again when I get the craving for banana fritters!”

“The food is always amazing every time we come. This time we had the special homemade tofu. Absolutely stunning. Also the Nonya chicken was delicious. We keep coming back.”

“I would normally give it a 5 star but this experience was so sad. I payed 15.90 for some marmite chicken and normally it would be the whole box. Tell me why when i open the box there is less than half the normal portion. Very disappointed”
