It was a great experience and well worth our 45 min drive on a Friday night dinner.

Our waiter, Brendan, was so great and made sure we had a great experience with our first visit to this restaurant.
Bananarac drink was so great and made with perfect amount out alcohol with fresh Banana.
We were looking forward to Roti Canai and they did not disappointed us. We got one order with chicken and other with Lentil.

For entre, we got seafood Singapore noodle and crispy spicy duck (first timer) and perfectly cooked. So much flavor and cooked very tender and spice level.

A little disappointed with they were out of sticky mango rice ( seasonal) but we had Pandan creme brulee which was so tasty. But didnt like Ondeh Cendol(sort of jello) much.
Reservation definitely is needed for the weekend if you want to dine before 9.. very lively and decor is very welcoming.

Overall, we definitely had such a great time and Brendan made it so comfortable on our first visit here. We will definitely visit again.

Had a fantastic experience with our server Hannah. We had a large party and had multiple dietary restrictions. The level of professionalism and quality of service was greatly appreciated!

Food and decor was amazing! All the dishes were so flavorful and the vibes in there were so comforting. This is definitely the spot to go to for a weekend date night, family get together and any special occasion!

Definitely will come back and try other dishes on the menu!!

Southeast Impression is a really great concept, where you can get traditional dishes from multiple SE asian countries all in one spot! They have a diverse menu of different noodle dishes, curries, soups, rice, and so so many appetizers. Service here was amazing and food came out pretty quickly.

For appetizers, we ordered their fried wontons, fried calamari, salmon ceviche, and roti canai. All of them were delicious, but I highly recommend the roti canai because of how buttery the roti was and the curry was absolutely delicious! For mains, we got their pad thai, their panang curry, crab fried rice, pad see eiw, and hokkien mee. Favorites of the night here were definitely their panang curry and crab fried rice! Wish we had room more dessert but everything was so good, I was stuffed by the end.

Visited Southeast Impression for lunch for the first time and WE WERE IMPRESSED!! 🙂
The restaurant had a nice atmosphere, great vibes and the staff were all so great. I loved the decor and ambience.
Shawn, our server, was amazing! He made our lunch all the more special by accomodating our dietary restrictions.
We had the Tom Yum and Tom Kha soup – both flavorful. The star dish for me was the Drunken Noodles (chef’s kiss). Packed with vegetables and wholesome flavors.
We ended the meal with Mango Sticky Rice and Pandan Creme Brulee.
Would love to visit again!
Shawn, you were truly great!

Southeast Impression is a great concept restaurant fusion of Southeast cuisines like Chinese, Thai, and Malaysian dishes. We were recommended the Pad Kapow Crispy Duck and it was delicious and flavorful. The portion and price was worth it. Excellent service and parking is available in both Scott and Giant garages in addition to a few street parking. Gift card is available online and physical card. Another savings if you have AMEX.

We usually do takeout but finally got to sit down and try it. Highly recommend reservation, parking is free. They have an extensive menu, usually this kind of freaks me out because decisions paralyses. I know everyone raves about their hainese chicken but I didn’t see the hype. The curry laksa was ok, the desserts were really good though. Service was good kind of slow because of how busy they were but our waitress was still attentive.

Let me give you the most honest review that I can give.

The appetizer everyone was craving about, roti cannot, really basic Indian dish. I would suggest getting another app that seems more unique.

There was this chicken noddles dish. It was basically just sweet Ramen noodles with chicken. I would say that it was still delicious, but next time ill def try something else that is much more different. The drunken noodles were delicious but the chicken was bland and had no taste to it.

Salmon civiche was actually pretty good and interesting flavors with a bit of spice to it. I would probably get that again.

Atmosphere was real legit and it was a vibe being there so kudos to the establishment.

Service was actually really good honestly and had no negative things to say. The Asian guy with the glasses (I know that might sound like everyone lol) dont know his name though, but he was on point with drinks, the food, and also informing us a delay on the food. Which wasn’t a horrible delay. But also other people gathered our finished plates and dirty napkins to keep the table clean and not cluttered.

Overall, the place had great atmosphere, the food we chose were a bit basic, but I did see other plates that looked delicious. All of the foods presentation were real nice, even ours. And service was on point. To give you my honest review, that I usually do, I would visit this place again and try the other dishes. Just wouldn’t give it a full 5 stars yet in my opinion.

We went there with high hopes. Good things first- their service is really good. Liked their atmosphere as well. The cute bartender was the best. We found a hair outside of the glass but they replaced it when we pointed out.the non alcoholic drinks were great. We took BKk and beat the heat. Loved them both.

The appetizers were good. Loved the crab Rangoon. Didn’t like spring rolls and the fried calamari didn’t tasted fresh but the dip that came with calamari was good.

We ordered beef rendang and crispy duck. Oh boy. The food was way to salty to eat. We couldn’t eat it at all due to salt. Also didn’t bother to take it home because we would not be able to eat.

We ventured out to this restaurant based on the reviews. However my review isn’t going to be so great. Our dining experience was awful. Sad to say the food wasn’t up to much. The Roti Canai was ok. Plenty of meat in the sauce but the sauce was extremely watery compared to others we’ve had in other restaurants. The red curry wings were ok and a little spicy but the soggy breading wasn’t that appealing. The grilled jumbo prawn was inedible. It was so burnt it was solid. The beef Rendang was grisly and oily. We asked to speak to the manager but they never appeared. Very disappointing experience which we will avoid in future.

F.C.
An absolute must-visit for anyone craving authentic Malaysian cuisine — truly the real deal in the DMV. Most of the chefs are from Malaysia, and it shows in every dish.

Our server was knowledgeable, patient, and passionate about the menu, guiding us through the choices without ever making us feel rushed.

We started with chicken and beef satay, roti canai, and curry puffs — all bursting with rich, layered flavors. For mains, we shared the Singapore Chili Crab, Curry Laksa, Char Kway Teow, Beef Rendang, and Pineapple Fried Rice. Every dish was perfectly cooked, portions were generous, and the quality absolutely justified the price.

Service stayed attentive the entire night, and dessert — a beautifully Pandan Crème Brûlée — was the perfect sweet finale.

If you’re a fan of Thai, Malaysian, or Singaporean food, Southeast Impression delivers flavor and authenticity that instantly transports you across the world without flying. Already planning my next visit!
