Wife and I went tonight (Friday). We got right in with no wait, which was nice. With it being Friday night, they were busy so the service wasn’t the fastest, understandably. We got the spare ribs, pineapple fried rice, and traditional Singaporean dish, Hainanese chicken (the whole reason we went). Never having had hainanese chicken, I loved it! Will definitely be back for more. According to another review I read on here, it is very authentic (I personally have no way of knowing if authentic or not). The pineapple fried rice was not spicy, but very tasty. Oh, and the peanut pancake with ice cream. Everything was phenomenal with the exception of the dessert. It tasted like nothing but canned corn. Do not recommend.

Authentic Malaysian gem—the only one we saw at Boston Chinatown! Bold sambal heat. Fast, attentive service in a cozy spot. Generous portions at $$ value. Must-try

Penang now offers lunch sets and combination sets! We ordered the combination set, which included string bean with shrimp, spareribs, and curry chicken with a free white rice. It only cost $39.99! It was really worth it! At first we order Homemade roticanai to start, then we having the combination set! The atmosphere was really chill and nice, the server was really kind and helpful. You guys must try!!!!

Tell us what you ordered and what it cost. Two or three sentences about one dish is more useful to the next person than a star rating.
