Halal Reviews for Love Mama East Village

I’ve had this place bookmarked for quite some time and really wanted to love it. The service was friendly and the food was ok, but mostly too sweet for my taste. The best bites were the appetizers. We ordered the roti canai and the calamari, both on point. The entrees: mee goreng, curry laksa, and fried fish filet were all too sweet. Glad I tried it, but probably wouldn’t return.

Attentive and pleasant service is the best feature of this restaurant. We were not impressed with their food though. Nasi lemak and chicken satay was just ok, we definitely had much better elsewhere. We especially did not like the beef nasi lemak (beef was chewy and fatty), chicken one was better but not great.

I hadn’t been here in a long time, and I was pleasantly surprised. The place looks beautiful after the remodel, the food is still just as delicious, and the service has improved a lot, both in attention and presentation. Congratulations to the team for the effort and the improvement. My server’s attention was excellent. I’ll definitely be coming back!

Great spot for a small but mighty variety of well executed Vietnamese, Malaysian, and Thai options. Plus the staff is warm, helpful when it comes to food allergies, and willing to help you navigate the menu if you need.

3 stars because I found the food was absolutely MEH. The curries were WAYYYY SALTY!!! Everything was honestly just OK and too salty, and also either overcooked or undercooked and with the same sauce.
