Despite the glowing reviews, my experience at Belacan Malaysian Grill was a letdown. We ordered the Crab Rangoon and the $20 Tangerine Peel Chicken, but neither dish impressed us; the flavors were mediocre and certainly didn’t justify the price tag. It was particularly frustrating that a $20 entree doesn’t even include rice, forcing us to order the coconut rice as a separate add-on. While the ambiance is decent and the ample free parking is a convenient plus, the service was lackluster and didn’t make us feel particularly welcome. Between the underwhelming food and the poor value for the money, I won’t be heading back anytime soon. Purely my experience.

When we enters we were prompted to enter our names at the kiosk. Not exactly wanting to give Yelp any more of our info. We did wait 10 min and were seated and served right away. We had several dishes, some where authentic, some seem modified to suit there recipe verses traditional taste. The sauces were the same some were traditional and some seemed modified. So if you are looking for very authentic, I would say maybe they changed things based upon a region or family recipe.

Wanted to visit this place for a long time, and finally was able to, as I happened to visit another place nearby.
Got there around 12pm. Waited for about 10 -15 minutes to be seated, even though there were empty tables.
Food is good, but not at the “excellent” level. Staff are very friendly, albeit busy.

Big restaurant with many servers. Food very tasty and portion is reasonable. Pricing is on a pricier side though. Would recommend Roti, Hai-nan rice, and chicken satay.

Some of the food we ordered were good and some were not, the overall experience we had was to the best but missed some flavors of experience that we used to have all these years . On other side prices being bit expensive now

I’m from out of town, but will make sure I can have dinner here at least once while I’m in SoCal. Dont skip on the chicken satay .
Today’s curry lamb is peak flavor. Really yum.

For someone who has spent an extensive amount of time in SE Asia, this Malaysian restaurant is absolutely spot on with flavor and taste. Warm, casual, setting; on my go-to list!

The food was good. I have had better tasting Malaysian with better presentation in other areas of the US, however this is what’s available locally so I tried to use a bit of objectivity in this review. I typically gage reviews for Malaysian by their Rendang, which traditionally has to simmer for a long time to develop the flavors. Texture and color. The Rendang here was pale and the flavor was topical, not deep into the meat. The cut of beef used did not seem to be the best choice and had a fibrous makeup. Typically I have Rendang made of short rib meat, very dark in color as a result of simmering for at least 4 hours, permeated with flavor and thallo fat. I also had the lemongrass soup that resembled Thai Tom yum, but with richer flavor. It was very good. The other dish I tasted was orange rind chicken and that was pretty basic Asian deep fried fare.

This Malaysian restaurant really hit the spot! Everything we ordered was packed with flavor — the satay skewers were juicy and came with a delicious peanut sauce, the char kway teow was smoky and well-balanced, the Hainan chicken was tender with three great sauces, and the kangkung stir-fry was perfectly spiced. We ended with a refreshing bowl of cendol that wasn’t too sweet — just right.

The only downside is that service was a bit slow, but the food more than made up for it. Definitely worth the wait. Will come back for sure!

The food is delicious with reasonable price.
Make sure to book seats to avoid wait-time.
Will definitely come back for the Hainan Chicken.
