Had dinner with my son 26 Oct 2025. He heard of the place from his friends so we decided to go there. We had Nasi Lemak with Rendang Beef, pineapple fried rice, and squid nestum. Hot Tea was complimentary. All the fare tasted great. Service was reasonably well. Atmosphere was just right. Asian and Kiwi customers were dining that night. All in all a very fine dining experience.

Real authentic tasting Malaysian cuisine. The portions are generous and the flavours are spot on. We had the deep fried snapper with curry sauce, Homemade egg tofu with soy sauce, Marmite Sauce Chicken and a Eggplant dish. Parking at the rear, but need to register on the Ipad once inside

On the list for me top 3 Malaysian restaurants in Auckland (as of August 2025). Petaling serves up great food with great service.
My pick to try are the butter floss range of dishes and the Kam Heong chicken.
Make sure to book if you’re attempting to visit on Thursday, Friday, or Saturday 🤪

Visited Petaling Malaysian Restaurant and ordered the WatTanHor (mixed noodle) and the Fish head curry laksa. Both were good overall. If I had to be particular, I probably would not go for the fish head version of the laksa next time - not much meat, and the laksa flavour overpowered the fish head (but then again, what did I expect? LoL). The deep-fried beehoon in the WatTanHor was also a bit too much compared to the rice noodle (HorFun), and it ended up absorbing too much of the sauce, making the dish a little too dry for my liking. Still, a satisfying meal and worth a visit.
