Roti King- Euston

@rotikinguk

Went to @rotikinguk again after I think almost 2/3 years maybe more I don’t even know anymore, but either way the queue was even worse than the first time, I waited about 1hr 15mins in total 🥲 but in a way it shows how good the food is if ppl are willing to wait for it, found a place nearby as a backup & someone in the queue told me not to bother as it’ll disappoint so I decided to wait 🥲

Anyway, the food.

Beef Rendang: 9/10

Cost £8 & for me it was the right portion, on a bad day I’d have needed 2 rounds of it but this time round the rendang was soooo much better than the first time I had it, also the duck dish has been removed 😪💔 but it had like a mild citrusy hint to it as well which was beautiful.

Sweet roti: 7.5/10

Second dish was this sweet roti with caramelised brown sugar & bananas, this was really good but I felt like it needed some sort of single cream or double cream even to make it even better but was still decent either way.

Overall:

Food: 8.8/10

Roti King

Famous place with queues outside, people can't wait to get in for the incredible Malaysian dishes. Recommend this if anyone is looking for authentic Malaysian food. I've heard Roti King is known for offering nice Malaysian food, and they certainly didn't disappoint. The food is brilliant and absolutely worth a visit, even though very often, would have  to wait for a while before taking the stairs down and entering the restaurant. You would be amazed how delicious the dishes would taste. We come all the way from Manchester, and it is worth waiting for.

Roti King is a small diner located near Euston Station, the menu is well priced and affordable compared to many places around the area. Food tastes fresh and quite hygienic - obvious by the way we are able to see them cooking. Waiters are friendly and calm despite how busy it is! Be sure to arrive early as soon as its opened or you would have to wait in queue. Delicious Malaysian Food!

Classic hole in the wall type of restaurant with a limited menu where the food speaks for itself. You looking at Malaysian cuisine with a focus on Roti (obviously) and you only get one chance to order. This is good because it keeps the tables rotating at a good pace, which is handy because you can’t book and have to queue outside. We only waited 10 min though so not that bad.

Had been waiting to try this for a while, arrived before opening time and there was already a queue. It moves fast so don't be put off, but it is a quick in and out service, we were in and out within 40 minutes and we were there longer than most. They have tried to make the most of the space, but not much room for bags/coats! Food was good and more filling than we thought. Would recommend the noodle/rice dishes.

Great experience, it is well worth the waiting time in that long queue. Unfortunately they don't accept reservations, as the restaurant is quite small.
The food was so so delicious. The service was very efficient.
Highly recommended.
