Oh that fish!! – The Jaya special Fish is to die for. Specially if it is seabass and not red snapper. Try the fish if you are at Jaya and it will be added to your favorites in an instant..
The only thing good is the roti chanai – I have to say, definitely underwhelmed. Got delivery, and portions were small. Food was average at best. The okra portion was tiny, and the Indian Mee Goreng had mushrooms that were definitely not fresh. The only redeeming dish was the roti. Will not be ordering from here again.
great food for your money! – Jaya is one of my favourite restaurants in chinatown. food is just superb! the serving is pretty big and price is just so inexpensive. i do agree with the comment about their waitstaff, they tend to make you feel like you have to rush through your meal. i guess it's because there are a lot of people waiting to be seated. must try though!
yummy in my tummy! – I was walking around Chinatown when I noticed this spot, tucked away on the sidestreet of Baxter. People say the ambience isn't too great, but I think it's quite nice compared to most Chinatown restaurants. It has sort of an islandy feel, with bamboo chairs, wide open spaces and a large tropical fish tank. My only complaint would be the service. My waitress rushed me to order, never asked me how my meal was or if I needed a napkin. The water was warm, which didn't go well with my spicy dish. The food is ... read more
Got jury duty - make sure you have lunch here – Wonderful Malaysian food! They have a huge varity of dishes - great value for the amount of food you get and the quality! Love this place.
Not as good – Whenever I visit New York, I will make it a point to stop by Jaya. However, we are very disappointed that the food quality has dropped. The char kway teow is dry and the noodle used was not the soft chinese type. The pophia was the worst. The filling tasted stale. Seafood chow fun (our special order) was very starchy. You can imagine our disappointment especially having driven all the way from Philly. In any case, to give them credit on others, their mee goreng is pretty good.
Fire up ur appetite with Malaysian food! – If spicy food agrees with your stomach, dig into some of the popular dishes such as Homemade Roti Canai (crispy Indian pancake that comes with a thick curry sauce), Malaysian Lemon Grass Satay (BBQ chicken or beef skewers with peanut sauce), Curry Seafood Noodle Soup (be prepared to ask for water refills), and Beef Rendang over rice. Try the Steamed Carp Chew Chow Style, Crabs With Spicy Sauce, finger-licking Butter Shrimp, Grilled Stingray Fish in Banana Leaf, and Cashew Chicken in... read more
The Best NYC Malaysian Restaurant!!! – This was our first stop in a search for Malaysian food on a recent trip to NYC. My wife is Malay and this is the only restaurant that we went back to. roti Chanai is great, except the Roti bread reminded me more of a crepe than Malaysian Roti. We tried as many of the dishes as we could, the Beef Rendang is nice and tasty but needed more coconut milk. The place reminded me of some of the places in Kuala Lumpur, pots and pans stacked to the ceiling. Of all the Malaysian REstaurants in NYC... read more
Spice and All that is Nice – Malaysian cuisine is not for the spice-oh-phobic but some dishes had enough kick and bite to make it passable for delicate tasters. I always bring dates and friends to this off Canal Street eatery for the reasonably priced fare. Get the Tom Yum Soup, Hinanese Chicken, Beef Rendang ang the noodle dishes. Make sure you order the ABC dessert (no letters in it but just delightful shaved ice with tidbits of sweet jellies) and the Malaysian Coffee (their version of Thai Tea with cream) to ensure your t... read more
