This group covers Japanese, Korean, Thai, Vietnamese, Indian and other Asian cuisines that are not Chinese, and the etiquette varies by kitchen. Japanese and Korean restaurants often take reservations for dinner and may add a service charge for large groups; Thai and Vietnamese spots are usually walk-in and quick-turnover. Spice levels are frequently adjustable on request at Thai, Indian and Sichuan-adjacent menus, so say if you want it mild or hot. Korean BBQ restaurants typically charge per person for all-you-can-eat service with a time limit, and grills are shared at the table. Vietnamese pho shops post bowl sizes (regular or large) and a plate of herbs, bean sprouts and lime is normal to add yourself. Card and tap-to-pay are widely accepted; cash-only is more common at small family-run counters.

Went with my friend for dinner. Rasa is amazing and a great place to try Malaysian food. If you are feeling spontaneous please ask your server what they recommend so that you can try something new. You will not be disappointed.

Stopped by after a show for late Friday night dinner. The restaurant was bustling with patrons at the time; we were seated within 4 minutes. Ordered the Malaysian combo for starters; enjoyed the curry puff and the satay peanut sauce was amazing. We had Curry Laksa with beef and Beef rendeng for entrees. The laksa flavors blended well and wasnβt too strong- just right for our taste. The beef rendeng had a generous serving of tender beef and the flavors were delicious. Canβt wait to go back and try more dishes!

Why is this place not famous? Come here if you want generous service and the most delicious food in NYC, Malaysian or not. They started us off with a vegetable soup on the house. It was hot, full of umami and a pleasant surprise. Ordered the curry laksa, prawn mee, aubergine with basil, and omelette. The laksa was coconutty and came with fresh prawns. Opted for the mixed noodles and they gave a variety of 3 types of noodles in the bowl. The prawn mee had kangkung (morning glory) and prawns as fresh as the former dish. The soup was spicier than the laksa, as guaranteed by the waitress. The omelette burst with flavours that make you surprised egg can hold such flavour. Truly, it tasted like an omelette back in Malaysia. The aubergine portion was large and was stir fried in a very tasty chilli paste. Almost akin to terung belacan back home for fellow Malaysians. For dessert, we got teh tarik and onde onde. The Teh tarik was fragrant and bubbly. Just the best. Onde onde was served hot, indicating they boil it to order and then toss it in the coconut shavings just in time for the customer to enjoy. I wish this would go viral as a place to enjoy authentic Malaysian dishes as much as

My husband and I ate here for the last Iftari. The staff were so kind and accommodating, which inspired me to leave a review. We arrived 40 minutes early. They took our order and made it closer to when my husband could break his fast. They also offered dates, which was nice. We had the roti canai (loved it!) and the appetizer sampler (liked it). For dinner I had the bbq chicken and he had Singapore noodles. If you only eat halal, the food was great and I highly recommend this place! If you eat halal and some non-halal, there are places in Elmhurst, Queens that I like a little better. Overall, the service was amazing, and I will definitely be back with my halal friends!
