Laksa KingExcellentLaksa King4.4 Based on 6517 reviews fromSee all reviews review us on ★★★★★ One of those is a fish head laksa . OMG. 10/10.Dave L. ★★★★★ My family and I have been eating here for many years now. It has become a staple restaurant of ours. I get the combo laksa and it is to die for. Laksa king serves food that fills your stomach and your soul. I recommend this place with all my heart.Philip B. ★★★★★ Laksa King is super! They deliver best customer service & dishes are tasty!Sanjay P. ★★★★★ Excellent service from Bella! keep returning for laksa, but Bella recommended me the fried rice that worth to try, and I really love the XO fried riceLaura L. ★★★★★ Amazing food. Service is always polite, friendly and fast!Scott M. ★★★★★ This is probably my sixth visit to Laksa King and the first time we’ve decided to order non-Laksa dishes (Laksa is affordable and delicious but we wanted to try the other items on the menu).Seen here is the Fried Kwei-tiao, Chinese broccoli, hot & spicy soup and fried chicken ribs. These ribs are easily the best fried chicken I’ve had in ages and are a long way ahead of fast food or Korean friend chicken. So delicate and flavoursome!Eating slowly, we finished most of the $80 meal there but there’s enough for leftovers for those with smaller appetites. Will definitely be coming back for these dishes.Robert L. ★★★★★ I just went here with friends. I tried the Assam Laksa and it was soo good! Very refreshing! The staff, Bena, was polite and friendly. I will come back again to try another menu 🙂Vanessa V. ★★★★★ So flavourful and delicious. The beef laksa was an absolute treat.Mursal K ★★★★★ Had dinner at Laksa King Glen Waverley this evening. Eric was very gracious and patient with our table. The food arrived without delay and was cooked to perfection. We orderedFive Spiced Chicken Rib, Curry Chicken, Sweet and Sour Fish Fillet, Organic Vegetable and Bean Curd with Steamed Rice, then ended with a serve of MeeGoreng. The food arrived quickly. And all dishes were very well done and so very tasty too. This well surpassed my expectation of good Malaysian food. I must commend the restaurant for the Sweet and Sour fish Fillet. The sauce was just right not too sweet and just enough sour tang to it. Well done Laksa King Glen Waverley. A big thank you to Eric and his crew for a very enjoyable dinner tonight.Karine Y. ★★★★★ I love this place the food is absolutely amazing.10/10Brett C. ★★★★★ Omg the food was the bomb… The roti chicken rolls, the chicken skewers and chicken curry channai with roti bread was delicious … see you again next week …The food came out quickly and the staff were friendly and helpful. Prices very reasonable…Retropopstop ★★★★★ The second best laksa in Australia (behind Mary’s in Darwin)Ben C. ★★★★★ Recommended by local, big serve and great taste. Indoor and outdoor seating availableGG Y ★★★★★ Laksa King has become one of those places we make time for whenever we’re in Melbourne.We first came here after a very long day at a music festival, arriving late in the evening hungry and exhausted. The place was absolutely packed and we had to wait for a table – and it was completely worth it.We started, naturally enough, with the laksa: vegetarian for me and seafood for my partner. Both were generous, deeply satisfying bowls and exactly what we needed. I also ordered the Asian greens with garlic, which is something of a personal test for me when trying an Asian restaurant. Get simple greens right and you have my attention. Laksa King got them very right.What really hooked us, though, was watching everything else coming out of the kitchen. The menu is enormous, and during that first meal we kept looking at dishes arriving at other tables, finding them on the menu and mentally making a list for next time.And there have been plenty of next times. 😅We’ve since worked our way further through the menu, including the chilli pipis and the egg tofu with mushroom sauce, along with various specials, and we’ve yet to come away disappointed. Portions are generous, the food arrives remarkably efficiently considering how busy the restaurant can be, and there’s enough variety that returning never feels like repeating the same meal.This isn’t quiet, formal dining. It’s busy, bustling, casual and often packed. You may have to wait for a table, particularly at peak times, but personally I wouldn’t let that put me off. Once you’re seated, settle in, look beyond the obvious choices and explore that menu.There are restaurants we enjoy when we happen to be nearby, and then there are restaurants that become part of the plan. For us, Laksa King is firmly the latter. If we’re going to Melbourne, chances are we’re already working out when we can fit in another visit. 🍜Chiara ★★★★★ Food is spectacular! Worth it a 100%! Everything was extremely tasty!!Ines Rios C. ★★★★★ The combination Laksa is always a hit. Prawns, chicken, fishcake, different noodles, billowing fried tofu, eggplant topping all excellent with a deep flavoured soup👌. Add some tea and a price point you can't beat. A number of locations.Michael W. ★★★★★ A classic for a reason. Highly recommend the chicken laksa 🤌🏻Al M. ★★★★★ Great food and even better service. Huge thanks to Mimi, who looked after us so well throughout the meal. She was friendly, attentive, and made the whole experience even more enjoyable. Will definitely be back!Joo C. ★★★★★ Great night out for some of the freshest seafood laksa I have had.Braden M. ★★★★★ My first-ever laksa experience, and it turned out to be an amazing one! The broth is vegan, which made me so happy because I have a seafood allergy and can’t have shrimp paste. It was rich, creamy, and incredibly tempting. The spice level was just perfect.I ordered the chicken laksa and managed to finish the whole bowl. The chicken was juicy and cooked perfectly. The chicken satay with peanut sauce was delicious too.The elderly gentleman at the restaurant was so kind. I’m not sure if he’s the owner, but his recommendations were excellent, and his friendly chats made the experience even better.One of the best Malaysian restaurants in Melbourne Laaaa 🇲🇾✌🏾♥️.rami C. ★★★★★ Well done. Clean restaurant, competitive pricing, great service. Would definitely come back.Jesse W. ★★★★★ My favorite laska place! They habe great service and even greater portions 🙂‍↕️🔥Pat A. ★★★★★ We recently visited Laksa King and tried the Chicken Curry Laksa and Beef Curry Laksa. Both dishes were absolutely delicious, packed with rich flavors and perfectly balanced spices. The broth was aromatic and full of depth, making every spoonful enjoyable.The portion sizes were very generous, offering excellent value for money. The chicken was tender, the beef was cooked well, and all the ingredients tasted fresh and high quality.Overall, we had a great dining experience. If you're looking for a satisfying and flavorful laksa, Laksa King is definitely worth a visit. We'll certainly be coming back to try more from the menu!Jehan J. ★★★★★ Tonight was the first time me and my family visited Laksa King. Customer service was friendly and very professional. The food was reasonably priced and absolutely delicious. I will definitely be coming back with my family. I don’t know who the gentleman was who served us but he had exceptional customer service and warm and friendly thank you Laksa king see you next time.Aleksandra J. ★★★★★ Always a great option super fast service delicious hot laksa and friendly polite staff. Easy parking and also right on the train line too.Look out for the musical robots!Osher G. ★★★★★ Amazing food. We had laksa and duck red curry with some roti and dumplings for entree. Would highly recommend. We will be back.Lukie M. ★★★★★ My mum loves their fish lasaka noodle soup, so we went to there to celebrate Mother’s Day, unfortunately I ordered the wrong dish, but organiser exchanged for us. I really appreciate it, thank you so much. Very kind!Vikita L. ★★★★★ We ordered Combination Laksa, Red Duck Curry, rice, roti canai. Food was good and full of umami. The portion size is generous. Price seems reasonable. The customer service was great. I recommend this place people who love laksa or Malaysian cuisine.Azharul I. ★★★★★ Quiet near the 2-3pm period before closing. Reasonable prices. Food was warm and portion sizes were generous. Rice possibly over-seasoned, but otherwise delicious.U Hei L. ★★★★★ The food is generally delicious, but it's very crowded on weekends and evenings.Jaehyun C. ★★★★★ One of my FAVOURITE restaurants. Been coming here since 2021, a few changes with prices and all that, but food is so tasty! And the owner is very sweet and welcoming. My number one favourite dish here at Laksa King has got to be the Chicken Laksa 💗🍜Mimsy1 ★★★★★ This is a great spot for decent Malaysian cuisine. The restaurant is well-managed, with a good standard of hygiene and sufficient seating for large groups. Orders are taken efficiently, and the food is served promptly by the staff. A wide variety of laksa, noodle, and rice dishes are offered, all featuring impressive flavours. Their famous desserts are also served alongside a quality selection of hot beverages, including authentic brewed teas and refreshing cold drinks.Ashwitha C. ★★★★★ Consistently amazing laksa, have been coming here for awhile and have always left feeling full and satisfied!Omar Kjs_loader
