	Reviewed by : Anonymous On: Three cuisines fuse under the heading of Malaysian food: the intense sweetness possible in Chinese food joining the slower, more lumbering heat and weight of Indian and the brightness of Thai that we identify with cilantro and fish sauce. ...?
	Reviewed by : Contributor On: Thai and Malaysian cuisines in an unassuming The Scene Even on cold, rainy nights, locals crowd inside this cozy spot, located in a small strip mall. The blond-wood paneling surrounding the cashier and bar area provide an overall casual feel: this is a no-frills, pleasantly efficient ...?
	Reviewed by : satay On: 2002-08-19 I've dined at this restaurant once and had a good experience the first time, unfortunately the quality of service is not consistent. In my second visit I ordered "seafood noodle" dish, which was described including "sautee shrimp, etc. ...?
	Reviewed by : fionablack On: 2002-11-10 I have never been to the Malay Satay Hut without ordering Roti Canai-has anyone? It is beyond a doubt the best deal in town. I was sso sad when they were closed due to a fire, but happily the food is just as good at the newly remodeled ...?
	Reviewed by : judychen On: 2002-11-30 I've been a fan since the 1st time 2 yrs ago at the downtown location. The owner has ties to Nyonya in NYC where the Roti Canai is made in the window so people can salivate during the 1 hr+ wait. This place is still a favorite but the ...?
	Reviewed by : chuchu On: 2003-01-13 I regularly introduce friends and visitors to Malay Satay Hut and most of them declare it one of their new favorite Seattle restaurants. For those unfamiliar with Malaysian food, it is a blend of three fantastic cuisines: Chinese and ...?
	Reviewed by : lumdechef On: 2004-05-13 I am a Malaysian so hear me out. The food is alright, roti canai was good no doubt but that's about it. Want curry or anything spicy? Go eat Indian. Want Asian? Go eat Chinese cause they're pretty much the same (better in some cases). ...?
	Reviewed by : kenshongad On: 2004-08-22 This restaurant used to be good when it first opened, but as they gets busier in recent years, the food quality has dropped to the point where I have decided not to go back. The biggest problem I have with the food is: the food tastes "very ...?
	Reviewed by : gunadi On: 2004-12-20 I came from Oregon and I spent my dinner in Malay Satay Hut as recommended by CitySearch. Service is horrible and horrible. I had not finished my food, yet, they tried to take a way my plate. It was 8.30 pm for god sake, not even a busy ...?
	Reviewed by : sumocat98 On: 2005-04-22 The food it great! We always get good service no matter when we go. The place is always busy though to be ready to wait for a seat, but it is worth the wait. Try to roti canai and the chicken satay! Yum! ...?
	Reviewed by : afyuen On: 2005-05-08 I have been going to the restaurant for close to 8-9 years now and have noticed that the quality has degraded since the expansion. It seems that when the owner is at one of his restaurants, the quality seems to be better probably because ...?
	Reviewed by : Molly H. On: 2005-06-24 Malay Satay Hut hits the spot. A unique mix of Asian and Indian foods this small restaurant will please many palates. The appetizers are excellent and there is a wide variety of tofu dishes and excellent vegetable dishes that aren't just ...?
	Reviewed by : spankmehard On: 2005-07-24 It is mouthwatering, and others know it so you better arrive early on Fri & Sat evenings because this place can get packed. The Satay appetizer melts in the mouth, with a rich curry-like dip. The Salt and Pepper Squid are some of the ...?
	Reviewed by : cccc On: 2005-07-30 If you are well-versed in Asian menus, you will enjoy this place for a dining challenge! Has the expected satays (have never eaten them!) but we go for the unfamiliar--like steamed chopped pork with salty fish, omelet with baby oysters ...?
	Reviewed by : Michael S. On: 2005-08-18 Malay Satay Hut is one of my favorite restaurants in Seattle. I can have old standbys or try something radically new off the menu and I am always extremely pleased with the dishes. When trying something radically new, this is a pretty ...?
	Reviewed by : M G. On: 2005-09-06 Malay Satay Hut is one of my most favorite restaurants. They specialize in Malaysian food, so some of the entrees are spicey. One of my favorite things to order is the Indian Bread appetizer (roti) that is served with a bowl of curry ...?
	Reviewed by : Weng K. On: 2005-09-15 Malay Satay Hut has a huge menu that can dazzle newcomers. It was like an adventure to browse through every item and choose what I wanted during my first visit. The food is ok, not very delicous but not too bad, definitely not up to an ...?
	Reviewed by : Denise H. On: 2005-10-07 I've never been to the Seattle location, so I can't say anything for the staff or decor. However, the Malay Satay Hut chain has one of my favorite dishes ever, the Hot and Spicy Tofu. My mouth waters just thinking about this dish. ...?
	Reviewed by : kaushals On: 2005-11-30 This place doesn't have the largest vegetarian menu, but these two dishes are the reason I keep coming back again & again. And oh, the lychee drink compliments this spicy food very very well. Great for lunches -- they have some good lunch ...?
	Reviewed by : yich3n On: 2005-12-27 Not every dish is great, but the good ones are absolutely fantastic! Roti canai, dry curried tofu, curry vegetable noodles--- anything involving curry on this menu is almost a guaranteed winner. ...?
	Reviewed by : momolee On: 2006-02-10 I finally get to try Malay Satay Hut in little Saigon in one lazy afternoon. I ordered roti canai and bak kuh deh. The roti canai did not disappoint but the bak kuh deh was very much lacking in flavor and sustance. I've read a previous ...?
	Reviewed by : judieinseattle On: 2006-02-26 It was good to see such a huge menu with many different choices. Where I sat there was a cold draft blowing down on me from above which was annoying. The wait for the appetizers and the orders was slightly long, approx. 15 minutes. ...?
	Reviewed by : A TripAdvisor Member On: 2006-03-08 The wait staff was the most appalling, rude, offensive and unfriendly staff I have ever had to meet at a restaurant. Speaking in Cantonese, they made insinuating comments on the customers' apparent outward appearance and fashion ...?
	Reviewed by : Cam N. On: 2006-04-12 I haven't tried any other Malaysian restaurants in the Seattle area except the Malaysian Satay Hut. The service is not exceptional or anything, but the food is definitely very flavorful. My favorite dishes there are the Hainese Chicken ...?
	Reviewed by : lysistrata On: 2006-06-07 Great fusion of Chinese, Thai and Indian cuisine. While some Malay food is spicy they also have dishes that can please most palates. The chow kueh teow and papaya and tofu salad are some of my favorite on the menu. Most items on the menu are ...?
	Reviewed by : wtraveler99 On: 2006-08-23 I have been going to this restaurant for about 6 years and find the food to be good but the service has become abysmal since the owner moved to the second restaurant in Redmond. The last time I was in there I canceled my order and walked ...?
	Reviewed by : mimithan On: 2006-09-27 I went to their chinatown location and their food is sub-par. Service is fast but unfriendly. Found a much better restaurant in Indo Cafe (near Northgate Mall) to satisfy my cravings for Malaysian/Indonesian food. ...?
	Reviewed by : sweetburke On: 2006-10-04 This used to be my favorite place to have Southeast Asian food. The food quality now is aweful and the food taste like cheap Asian food that can be found at the malls. ...?
	Reviewed by : cheriwan13 On: 2006-11-17 I've been a regular here for 6 years. Since it burned down and re-built something HAS become different. It used to be my favortie for comfort food, service, and quality; now I find all three lacking. The one reviewer who mentioned that ...?
	Reviewed by : DaveN1135286 On: 2006-11-29 The roti bread with curry is outstanding: get TWO orders going immediately upon walking through the door. Otherwise, the food is good and solid fare; beef dishes are occasionally overcooked and tough. ...?
	Reviewed by : StephanieS3146 On: 2007-06-08 I felt the food didn't live up to the rave. When I mentioned to my friend, he stated they had changed management and nothing was quite the same. Still solid, wide variety of menu options (some a bit too exotic for my taste). ...?
	Reviewed by : Katz'sNYC On: 2007-06-09 the roti here. Tourists order the mango dishes, but the real deal here is curray and dishes made with sambal. Tiny bathrooms and tight spaces between tables may not be comfortable for larger people. ...?
	Reviewed by : Sphinx38 On: 2007-07-11 but rather - at least in Redmond - a restaurant with a wide-ranging selection of Singaporean/Malaysian/Indonesian foods. These appear in an extensive photo-menu and on wallboards which show daily specials. Some items may scare off unitiated ...?
	Reviewed by : stefohnee On: 2007-07-13 with curry-potato dipping sauce) is delicious and CHEAP! Any squid dish is also delicious. Buddhist yam pot is beautifully presented, and a tasty vegetarian option. The lime ice (like limeade) is refreshing. Get the durian milkshake if you go with people you ...?
	Reviewed by : VineethM On: 2007-07-14 Crisp and Flakey! The best and most authentic-ish place on the eastside for food from the Singapore, Malaysia, Indonesia region. The service is like in Singapore - ok only lah. ...?
	Reviewed by : ling On: 2007-11-02 The other food was only average quality - equivalent to the average street food back in Malaysia. The sour laska was pretty bad -worse than any I ad ever eaten in my life. They used the wrong rice noodle (thin ones instead of thick) and ...?
	Reviewed by : djstrychnine On: 2008-05-16 This is one of our favorite restaurants in Seattle. The Mee Go Rang is noodle heaven with shrimp, fried yam, fried tofu, fish cake all in a tangy tamarind sace. Unbelievable. My 2 and 4 year olds love it. Don't forget to try the Roti Canai, ...?
	Reviewed by : Epikouros On: 2008-07-24 them to complete their kitchen remodel. The prices increased by $1 - $2 per order. The size of my Roti appetizer was smaller than pre-remodel. I was also disappointed with the quality of the Singapore Noodles. I probably won't return for awhile. The restaurant was usually ...?
	Reviewed by : Diane D. On: 2008-11-04 This place has an amazing menu, and I love to get a group of friends together here to dine at the big round tables. Plenty of choices to keep everyone happy! ...?
	Reviewed by : JG5857 On: 2008-12-31 which is a good thing. I like the Curry Chicken Noodle Soup--nice and spicy. The Roti Canai is also good, but is quite similar to the soup. The only think I haven't enjoyed from MSH is the Sambal Squids dish--the sauce was a bit too gritty for my taste. ...?
	Reviewed by : Nizar On: 2009-03-18 Good Food...........Great Roti...................................More Quantity......Nice Food ...............Great Area Bellevue instead of China Town ...?
	Reviewed by : ann n. On: 2009-08-07 I would venture to say this is excellent food at a reasonable price. The only challenge are the reduced business hours. You can enjoy dinner from menu with a wide array of choices. Expect to pay between $25-35 for 3-4 dishes. ...?
	Reviewed by : Ant On: 2009-08-10 My favorite dish here is their coconut shrimp. It's already a pretty good family sized plate, but sometimes we just have to order seconds. One of my regularly attempted spots when in town. Menu has pictures for those who may not know what to ...?
	Reviewed by : pk On: 2009-11-12 Having been to Malaysia and Singapore, I would say that the food is as authentic as one can find in the Seattle area. The chicken satay is far and away the best I have had since moving here in 2000. The peanut sauce is made with real ...?
