Penang Delight Cafe

Server doesn't have a sense to speak with anybody....... the food is also worst

Pretty standard Malaysian place. Ordered my favourite, roti with a side of curry - that was delicious. Also had bak kuh teh and it was meh... still on my search for an amazing bak kuh teh in Vancouver. Skewers were good tho. It's a cute restaurant. A really nice place to have a super long lunch where you can chat for hours, which is what we did. We never felt rushed by the staff to leave, the noise level is perfect for conversation - no loud music to shout over :) Was there for lunch on a weekday.

I've literally dined there twice within the past week. The service is good and the ambiance not-overbearing. The quality of the food is good as well. I would recommend this restaurant to anyone craving Malaysian cuisine. It is quite authentic.

I heard about this place from a friend. Is was pretty good; I only wanted something light for breakfast, so I only got the roti with a creamy curry dipping sauce, but I was still pretty full after. Tried some of my friend's chicken as well; in short it was smooth and quite flavorful. I will probably visit again to try something else.

Good Malaysian cuisine and a nice variety of items.The place is very cozy so be prepared to wait. We waited 25 mins.Overall the dishes were good.Hainanese Chicken 4/5 - succulent. Tofu 2/5 - did not really understand it.Chicken skewer 3/5 - just as expectedRoti 3/5 - just as expectedCurry Platter 2/5 - Very price but also the meat was very dry.The menu does have a nice variety of items. I do want to go back and try some of the other items.

Really good traditional Malay food

The Rendang Beef is so tender and flavorful as is the House Special fish. Cozy with very attentive and friendly service.

Penang deserves a much higher rating 4.8+ . Very high quality entrees very consistent throughout the menu. Restaurant is very cosy and clean with great decor. Staff are very prompt, organized and friendly. Authentic Malay dishes for any occasion. Go support this hidden East Van gem!

Excellent food! Nice, comfortable ambience.

Very good food overall. Prompt service.

Family ordered take-out for several entree dishes from the Rupert location. Our experience eating in restaurant at Penang Delight Marpole and other family members' experiences eating at the one on Rupert were positive. That's why we were quite disappointed with our experience with our take-out order. Portions were surprisingly very small for all dishes relative to expectations based on previous dine-in experience. It's too bad as the food itself was reasonably tasty. Perhaps its was just an off-night but I can't recommend ordering take-out. Again, my family and I have had positive experience at Penang Delight Marpole and Rupert for dine-in but today's take-out experience left us wanting.

Food was good and the service was quick. Just thought the prices were a tad high

Like their lunch menu a lot. Great choices and very authentic.

Love this place. Authentic Malaysian food!!

Terrible food. Way too salty. Ordered 4 items tonight and everything was over salted except for the roti. Ordered sambal green beans...got salted green beans with garlic. Im malaysian and these dishes arenare even close to anything malaysian.

Good food but with slightly above average prices for a neighborhood restaurant. Service is not so attentive!

Great food. Super flavourful and delicious. Highly recommend the roti.

Authentic delicious Malaysian style food. Service is alright, but the food makes up for it. They also have a fantastic atmosphere it's quite cozy. I would recommend getting the Seafood meegoreng, or the the beef rendengi. They also have delicious fried fish with mango. And they do have vegetarian options. Though the staff are stingy with giving any extra sauce.

This restaurant is a gem for those who love south east asian food, specifically Malaysian food. The food is authentic. The price is fair and the service is good.

The service was prompt and quick, however the servers seemed a little annoyed by us, likely because we came in a with under an hour left until closing. However, the food was overall good, I really enjoyed their laksa as it was spicier(still too mild for my taste) than most places, and they also used egg noodles I addition to vermicelli.

Very expensive Malaysian foods. I went there a few years back and because of good memories, I travelled long distance in the heavy rain on Feb 01, 2020 to get to the Rupert location. I found that prices have jumped 50%. Things that were $10 per dish are now $15, really expensive. Quality and ingredients have also changed and services have gone down too. I will not be back!

this place is going down hill. with the competition of all the malaysian places around they need to step it up.

Malaysian dishes. Laksa tastes good. Dishes have the similar ingredients

Penang delight has the best Ice Kachang in Vancouver. ICE kachang is a Singapore ice dessert that everyone loves. This colourful Singapore/Malaysian shave ice has heaps of ingredients, peanuts, sweet corns, jello, grass jelly, brown sugar. Must try when you are at Penang Delight.

Yummy beef rendang.

Very good and tasty food albeit on the pricier side. The Penang Chow Fun and Penang Char Kway Teow is especially authentic.

Good food and fast service.

Food is ok, environment is cold during the winter.

Had the Penang noodles, beans and chef's special chicken wings. Good choices all around! Desert was fried banana and Malaysian coffee. Very good. Will be back soon.

Best Malaysian restaurant I have ever been to. Has a great ambience which makes you feel at home. The food is always to my liking, no complaints whatsoever.

Nice food and coffee

I like the food here. It's very authentic and consistent. The place also has a pretty nice vibe to it!

Amazing soups and dinner lovely service and friendly staff

Fast service and tasty beer!

Little cosy cafe serving South East Asian Cuisine. Can be quite packed during weekends. Taste and serving wise is ok. Slightly pricey but I guess that's what you get for South East Asian food.

They have great mee goreng. Not very spicy, but tasty.

Food is so good !!!So fall in love with the Malaysia milk tea！

Good food, average service and very pricey

Lunch price posted outside is $10.xx, go inside and lunch is $11.xx on the menu. I’ll let that slide as price change happens. I have a dairy allergy. I asked if I can substitute the drink on the lunch menu (a specialty creamer coffee or a milk tea) with something else, making sure it is equivalent in price before I asked. She was adamant it can not be done. I asked twice making sure she understood. She said I can forego the drink or pay the regular price of the drink on top of my meal price. Just because they print on the menu to tell them about your allergies, does not mean they care.

A familiar taste but not exactly the best stuff.

Lunch menu has a wide selection of choices. Cozy place and great food.

Food was expensive and mediocre. If you like strong tastes, then this is the place for you. Decor is kinda cool.

This is a very cozy place, I would say it's small but I rather this because they always have enough staff. The food is delicious and there is no much wait for it, we order the Laksa soup and some chicken with rice, both of them where decent price for the amount of chicken and sea food in the soup, definitely will come back. There in the menu the deserts looks great but the food was filled hopefully next time we can eat them

Not the most remarkable first experience here. We just made it there for last call so the service was a bit rushed and not very friendly. I had the asam laksa which I read was suppose to be a bit sour, but I didn't enjoy it. My friends beef laksa was very good, however. I really enjoyed the desserts!

Everything was just fine. A little more expensive than your typical neighbourhood Malaysian restaurant. Ordered Nasi Nanas and I felt the pineapple was too strong and wet. It made the fried rice a bit watery and sour. Or perhaps this is what an authentic nasi nanas should taste like?

It is a good place for small group. Decent food.

A year ago we were here, we were quite happy, this year very disappointing become very expensive for lamb curry with six pieces small meat cube and curry sauce nothing else plus two glasses cendol & ice kacang = $32 plus force tip 10%. wow no wonder not many customers.

Great Malaysian food. I went to their Marpole location 3yrs ago and happened to stop by this one for brunch. I love the Roti Canai. The veggie Nasi Goreng wasn't pretty bland and not flavorful like the one at Banana Leaf, but the waiter did say that without the meat and stuff it's no longer a Malaysian fried rice. No complaints though as everything else was good.

The food is delicious but their level of spiciness is definitely not for me.

friendly staff and good food
