satay village

the foods served here are not up to scratch. i have been there twice. first time, i ordered chicken rendang, the dish was watery and did not have typical thick gravy that rendang dish supposed to have. since the restaurant carries the name ‘satay’, i thought the satay there might be good, but i was wrong again. i ordered chicken satay on my second visit. the chicken was tasteless and the peanut sauce was pitifully way too little.

if you are looking for good or authentic malaysian foods, look elsewhere. kk malaysia or kayu manis is your best bet!

definitely a "go to" option for good food, especially if time is an issue. has not disappointed on the several visits we have made dining in and taking away.

i had been really looking forward to having dinner there. however i was deeply disappointed with the food and the service. i ordered some satay sticks. when they came oil / fat was still dripping from the sticks, which was very off-putting. the chicken in my chicken lemak was very very dry. the jasmine tea was so weak that one could barely tell it was jasmine tea.

i wondered if there had been change of ownership or what. though the price was reasonable the food was just not great. i certainly will not go back again.

very affordable, tasty malaysioan food love the vege laksa and mee goreng!!!

been here a couple of times lately and just been dissapointed by the food. my laksa lacked that "laksa" flavour and instead just tasted like thin soup with curry powder. my partners rendang was equally disappointing with the meat lacking that tender rendang style and that rendang sauce. great service but pity about the food.

good service, insanely quick. literally about five minutes. food really nice, and relatively cheap. would recommend. only reason it's not a five is due to the lack of ambience.

food was fantastic! i had the mixed curry laksa which was thick and creamy, with roti which was sweet but not oily like many other places. he had the chicken and vegetable nasi goreng which was perfectly spiced and had lots of chicken and veges. the whole meal was very reasonably priced and thoroughly enjoyable! we will be back!

went to satay village tonight for dinner with choir for big sing. the atmosphere was nice, and good for a social event. the food was plentiful, the food and service was great. just a wonderful experience overall :)

will definitely go again in the future.

simple malaysian food. quick, easy, and friendly; probably my favorite all time restaurant. try the hot chicken mee goreng.

satay village is a a wellington gem! great food with no frills!

amazing food and great guys. the quality of food is excellent, and it is very well priced. always my first stop whenever i'm in wellington. i dined regularly here when i lived in the city, and i really miss it! the chicken mee goreng is to die for - easily the best in wellington.

went to satay village on sunday. they had great food and service. i didn't even have to ask to get my water refilled. i ordered chicken roti and it was lovely. my compliments to the chef!

my partner and i and our teenage daughter just finished having dinner at satay village and the food was delicious! the service was prompt and the food was hot. thoroughly enjoyed this dining experience and would recommend it to anyone :)

have been going to satay village for a few years now and have yet to be disappointed, great food, fast friendly service at a great price. chicken satay sticks are a must have, and the chicken curry with roti and the chicken rendang are among our favourite dishes.

my fiance and i had taken the family to satay village as he's been there several times in the past and had great food and service experiences. we aren't from wellington so we were really looking forward to this treat. the prices were not bad however the food was a disappointment. it was not how my partner had remembered and he was very disappointed with the quality. his stir fry was more of a soup! it was drowning in a liquid sauce which was impossible to keep on the plate every time you tried to pick something up. we had asked someone to dump some of the sauce out and to add more spice as it was definitely not 'medium' as requested. they had tossed in some spice and then it was far hotter than we wanted. all of the vegetables were like watties mixed vegetables which were rubbery and pre-frozen. the shrimp in my mothers meal was freezer burnt and the chicken pieces in my meal was rubbery. hard to believe as we had checked all of the reviews on menu mania and other sites which were all positive. will not go back.
