Visited MS on a late Tuesday evening. The crowd was light, so we had no issue getting a table. The service was excellent from the moment we walked in until we left the restaurant and the food was very very good. We ordered the MS Fish and Chips, MS Soft Shell Crab and Mud Crab Mee Goreng, Truffle Fries, and Coconut Milkshake. The fish, in particular, tasted really fresh; it was plump, tender, and juicy... more than I had expected for Fish and Chips. They even gave us a free slice of cake! All in all, a great experience. Would come back again.

My family and I dined at The Malayan Settlement on the afternoon of 16 May 2026, and we had a truly enjoyable experience. We ordered the Lemak Chili Padi Duck Pasta, Wagyu Burger, Creamy Carbonara Pasta and Shakshouka, which were delicious and beautifully prepared. The food was served promptly, and the service throughout our meal was pleasant and attentive. Just before we were about to leave, my wife was pleasantly surprised with an ondeh-ondeh cake paired with coconut ice cream and a glass of sparkling wine. It was such a thoughtful gesture in celebration of Mother’s Day, even though Mother’s Day had already passed the previous week. A special shout-out to Ms Sara, who attended to our table. She was warm, professional, presentable, and maintained a cheerful smile throughout our visit. She cleared our table efficiently and presented us with the complimentary dessert and drink, which truly made the experience memorable for my wife and family. To our amazement, we were also given a red velvet cake for takeaway before we left. This extra gesture of generosity and hospitality exceeded our expectations and left a lasting impression on us. Thank you to the team at The Malayan Settlement for the wonderful food and exceptional service. We will definitely return again and highly recommend the restaurant to friends and family.

Warm earthy ambience with a touch of elegance, perfect for casual gatherings and special occasions. The Malay-fusion dishes were enjoyable — especially the smoked duck spaghetti, satay and mud crab Caesar salad. Visited for a Mother’s Day lunch as two mums with our daughters, and the attentive staff made it extra special with a complimentary cake and red roses for the mums. Friendly service and a lovely dining experience overall.

Heritage flavours reimagined with a modern touch, all set in an elegant, intimate ambience. Dishes feel familiar yet refreshing, & this halal-friendly spot with unique local fusion fare in town makes a lovely pick for special occasions, date nights, or hosting gatherings. The presentation for their Nasi Lemak Risotto ($32) is soo chio?! Made w arborio rice, each grain holding a slight bite while staying rich, creamy & indulgently lemak. Served w tender fried chicken wings, quail eggs, crunchy peanuts, ikan billis & a sambal that leans sweet. Nasi lemak in risotto form, & the flavours really hit the spot ~ XO Ribeye Fried Rice ($39) is mixed with homemade XO sauce, crispy silver fish, asparagus, dried shrimp & scallop. Umami-packed, though slightly on the saltier side from the silver fish. Would have loved the beef to be a bit more tender for a better bite !! SO generous with their shoestring Truffle Fries (vegetarian) ($16), this honestly felt like a meal on its own. Finished w grated parmesan, a drizzle of truffle oil, & paired w garlic aioli & sweet chilli sauce, both leaning slightly sweet. Durian Pengat Cake ($13.80) was a light, airy sponge cake topped w creamy durian & vanilla ice cream. Apple Martini ($18) was lightly sweet, w crunchy apple pieces (best to drink it early as it gets a lil tart after a while). Bandung Butter Beer ($19) was bandung-forward, smooth & creamy without being too cloying, just the right amt of indulgence !! We were also served complimentary croissants w butter at the start, plus a cake to take home, a really sweet touch from beginning to end. tldr, did wish the prices were slightly more affordable, but you’re paying for creative interpretations of local favourites presented beautifully. The textures may not be mind-blowing, but the flavours are comforting, satisfying, & one of a kind !!

I recently visited Malayan Settlement to celebrate a friend’s birthday, and it was a wonderful experience. For those planning to dine here, I recommend making a reservation on Fridays or weekends since it’s a popular tourist area and tends to get crowded. On a Monday, I found the place quite empty with plenty of tables, so walking in was no problem. The staff who took our order was friendly but a bit average in service – a smile would have been a nice touch. However, the female staff member in hijab was incredibly welcoming and outgoing. She was especially helpful in organizing a surprise birthday cake for our friend, which made the occasion even more special. We ordered: • Chicken Percik - The taste was delicious – juicy chicken that wasn’t dry, complemented perfectly buy the Percik sauce, which blended quite well and added a rich flavour • Beef Wellington - The outer pastry was incredibly soft; biting into it felt like biting into cotton candy. The beef inside was juicy and tender. Highly recommended! • King Prawn Black Wonders - A must try for squid ink pasta lovers! The prawns are gigantic, and the portion is generous enough to share with two people. It has a slight spiciness, which I loved. For drinks, we had: • Iced Café Latte • Chamomile Dream • Chocolate Shake We also ordered a starter – Truffle Fries and received a complimentary birthday cake for our friend. Plus, each of us received a takeaway cake to enjoy at home. Overall, the food and service made for a memorable celebration. The total bill was over $200, which I think is reasonable for a special occasion. If you’re looking for a nice spot to celebrate. Malayan Settlement is definitely worth considering!
