Satay Kingdom Cafe - Te Aro

Found on the Left Bank off Cuba St in Wellington this iconic dining establishment never fails to deliver excellent tasty food at excellent prices. I spent less for my Roti Chennai Chicken meal than I would have for a meal at McDs and the food is soooo much better. The service is quick and delivered with a smile. Been coming here for more than 15 years, great place!!

This is such a special place in my heart to go have a sit down inside or outside. Me and my son went back to Satay Kingdom Cafe after 9 years use to dine there all the time with my son and daughter when we were living in wgtn. The owners are lovely people and the food is excellent and yummy it was so lovely to go back after all these years to see the owners are still there just can't beat there food thank you Satay Kingdom ? your the best ? and they do deserve 5+stars ✨⭐✨

Great food, good prices and quick service. A favourite for an easy family dinner out.

Had some mi goreng here. Super cheap and big portions. Everyone keeps talking about the roti canai, so will have to try that next time

I ordered two roti Chanai from Uber eats, using this business. I found a maggot In my food. Have reported the incident. I strongly advise that people eat elsewhere, this place clearly has a serious health and safety issue.

Ordered dinner for me and two friends, my favourite dish was Chicken, I think I got 2 pieces and the rest being rice, vegetables and toasted coconut. Very disappointed. Would not order again.

3pm in Wellington and nothing open except for this tiny space which serves noodle salad. A new combo for me but to my surprise was really tasty. And the price is absolutely cheap. Really happy with this new discovery.

Having been in Wltgn for three days and still needing to eat Malaysian as I usually do when here in this city that boasts a high ratio of these eateries, we ventured out. It was Sunday lunchtime so not all were open rendering us to make an eventual unfortunate choice down some inner city Melbourne type lane. Satay Kingdom Cafe. All four of their concoctions failed miserably. The two fresh juices were watered down (or tasted as much). Not enough to dilute the colour, but enough to remove the fresh full fruit flavour. The Rendang was not cooked down enough, an obvious sign being the light colour and shredded coconut still being intact. Not only that, they held back on the spice and other ingredients rendering (sic) their effort lacking the distinctive sweet aromatic flavours of star anise, cardamon, cinnamon and galangal. So insipid was it you could see water collecting at the base of the food. It should of been a thick type dark juice. And the Laksa even though looking acceptable, it too suffered the same budget constraints of the above described efforts. They went tight on the ingredients that are needed to make a Laksa taste like a Laksa. Instead, it tasted like something prepared at the hospital -you know, where even mashed potatoes taste like water. Malaysian Roti Canai consists of multiple thin layers of flaky light flat bread. This joint's version had no traped air whilst cooking creating pockets between the layers being the Roti trademark of the bread breaking into shards when pulled apart. This is the first Malaysian joint I've come across in Wltgn that has been useless. Very bad luck it was that we happened across it. Malaysian is my favourite, add my anticipation to finally sit down at one, only resulted in elevating my disappointment level to one of extreme annoyance. So much so that I'm now gonna tell them (I write this while sitting in the sun at the table).... (5 mins later).... Ha! The chef's from China! That partly explains the botched results.
