Curry Leaf in Birmingham

Authentic Flavours, Warm Hospitality – A True Malaysian Gem I recently visited Malaysian Delight, and I can confidently say it was one of the most satisfying dining experiences I’ve had in a long time. Whether you’re already a fan of Malaysian cuisine or completely new to it, this place is an absolute must-try. The combination of authentic flavors, generous portions, and warm, welcoming service makes it stand out in the best possible way. Food Quality: Every dish we ordered was a celebration of bold, rich flavors. The Nasi Lemak was beautifully presented — fragrant coconut rice, tender sambal chicken, crispy anchovies, and perfectly boiled egg all served with that signature spicy sambal that had just the right kick. The Char Kway Teow was smoky, savory, and loaded with prawns and Chinese sausage, just like it should be. You can tell the kitchen takes pride in getting traditional recipes just right. Authenticity: As someone who’s tasted Malaysian food both in Malaysia and abroad, I was genuinely impressed by how true-to-home the dishes tasted. The ingredients, spices, and cooking techniques all reflect genuine Malaysian street food and home-style cooking. Nothing felt watered down or westernized — this is the real deal. Service: The staff were incredibly kind and knowledgeable. They took the time to explain the dishes for those unfamiliar with the cuisine and made thoughtful recommendations based on our preferences. Service was quick but never rushed, and there was a real sense of pride and hospitality in the way they engaged with customers. Atmosphere: The ambiance was cozy and clean, with simple but thoughtful decor that highlighted Malaysian culture. It’s a casual place, perfect for a relaxed meal with friends or family, and it felt very welcoming. Value for Money: The prices are more than reasonable considering the quality and portion sizes. You get hearty, flavorful meals that leave you full and satisfied. It’s clear they focus on quality ingredients and generous servings — no corners cut here. Highlights: Roti Canai was flaky and soft, served with a rich curry dip. Teh Tarik (Malaysian pulled tea) was creamy and comforting, just like I remember from street stalls in Kuala Lumpur. Vegan and vegetarian options were also available and well thought out. Overall: Malaysian Delight lives up to its name — a true delight in every way. It’s rare to find a place that so successfully captures the spirit and taste of Malaysia. Whether you’re dining in or taking away, the experience is consistently excellent. I’ll absolutely be returning — next time with an even bigger appetite. Highly, highly recommended!

The rest of the food was great apart from the masala fish. We ordered Cod fish and it was most definitely not. It was also over cooked. I had guests over which made it embarrassing- nobody ended up eating it and we had to Throw it away. Really disappointed.

This place gets 5 stars all round from me. It was my first time in Birmingham for a business trip, so I was eating alone. I came across Barajee and had to try my favourite chiken Balti dish. I wasn't disappointed. The garlic nan was also amazing. I asked for a garlic rice that wasn't on the menu and they were more then happy to make it for me. My waiter, Ray gave great service and I will defo be back the next time I visit Birmingham. In fact I will recommend this place to everyone I know.

Good scran, friendly driver. Bless you.
