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 🤪

Overall, recommended 7.5/10
Dry Bak Kut Teh — 4/5
Soy sauce-based dish featuring tender pork ribs and pork belly cubes, simmered with a mix of soy sauce, fish sauce, and sugar for a savory-sweet flavor profile. The meat is soft, flavorful, and pairs wonderfully with stir-fried onions, scallions, and okra. However, the pork belly cubes had a slight gamy taste.
Fried Chili & Garlic Crispy Eggplant Stuffed with Pork — 3.5/5
The fried eggplants are wonderfully crispy, and the minced pork flavored with chili, garlic, and fish sauce pairs excellently with rice. However, the eggplant itself lacked seasoning, which left the dish feeling slightly unbalanced.
Teh Tarik (Milk Tea) — 5/5
Absolutely amazing. It’s smooth and slightly thick, with a rich aroma of black tea, similar to Hong Kong-style milk tea but enhanced by a hint of unique spices that set it apart.
Anyway, I’ll definitely come back to explore more dishes on their menu.
