SO SATISFYING! The signature Traditional Laksa was very very yummy and fully loaded with chicken, prawns, fishcake, fishballs, Green beans, boiled egg, and the best ‘tau pok’ (fried puffed tofu) I’ve ever had. And I grew up in Malaysia and lived in Hong Kong for quite a few years. Tastes as authentic as I could hope for, though bear in mind “laksa” can mean many things depending on region [not sure where “Kebun Teh” is though lol]. I’m so stuffed and satisfied, but definitely need to come back and try the other things. The beef rendang looks very good.

Was craving Singaporean/Malaysian favorites after travelling in Europe for a while and this was a good spot for some comfort food.I was a lil confused upon entering cos it looked more like a bar than a restaurant and the music was turned up too loud for dining and the lighting was rather dim. So we decided to move upstairs to a more normal dining space.We ordered their traditional Laksa (I changed my noodles to the yellow noodles), nasi lemak, gado gado, satay, Roti Canai to share. We each had a glass of Teh Tarik.Laksa - yum! The gravy was lighter than what I’m used to but very tasty and went well with the noodles. Good amount of ingredients.Nasi Lemak - the rice (the most important part!) was fragrant with light coconut flavourGado Gado - the sweet peanut sauce was perfect with the boiled vegetablesSatay - which was ordered as part of the appetisers came abit too late (after we had finished most of our meal) was thick and chunky. It was the least impressive of the lot but maybe cos we were too full to enjoy it.Roti Canai - crispy on the outside and fluffy on the inside. Perfect with the curry dip.Teh tarik - was surprisingly good. I asked mine to be less sweet and it was done just right.Definitely worth a visit if you have a craving!

YES! AUTHENTIC MALAYSIAN FOOD! highly recommend this place. we requested for our dishes to be made spicy and they absolutely delivered!!! the laksa is super delicious and definitely is something i could find in malaysia. the nasi goreng kampung and wan tan hor are also equally delicious and authenticthe staff members were also very friendly and accommodating :)

Slightly disappointing meal here at Laxsa, but maybe because I have high standards for Malaysian food in general! But the Kangkung (water spinach) belacan was tasty and moorish, and the Char Kuey Teow was pretty good too! Just lacking in wok hei overall.

We made a last minute decision to visit this restaurant. It did not disappoint. We sat on a table outside watching the world go by while drinking the cocktails. The service was very prompt and efficient. The food was delicious, I was full at the end of the meal, but it was that nice I wish I could have ate more.

I must say, I was pleasantly surprised on my first trip here. The food was delicious. Often in many restaurants, when you order noodles or rice dishes, there isn't much ingredients. This is not the case here. My noodles were full or chicken, vegetables and prawns. All very reasonably priced. Service was brilliant too. Well done and keep up the good work.

Stumbled across this place in Soho on a Friday night. My order of roti canai was spot on. The roti was crispy, flakey, and chewy with good flavour and wasn't excessively oily. The curry sauce was wonderful. Fried chicken was very good. The teh tarik tasted just like it is in Malaysia. We'd already had dinner so couldn't manage anything else but we'll be back for the laksa which looked great. The menu also includes Malaysian classics such as hainanese chicken, char kway teow, wat dan ho, and hokkien mee. There are a few tables on 2 floors. It was a bit dark and cramped, and the prices are a little steep but I guess that's to be expected in the current climate and in central London.Edited following a 2nd visit on a Wednesday evening for dinner before a gig nearby. It was packed at 7pm. We were seated upstairs and the 2 waiters couldn't keep up. We were served 2 of the 3 dishes we ordered and it became apparent that the 3rd order hadn't been put in and arrived 15 minutes later. The food was very good. Beef rendang was well flavoured. The laksa was pretty good, but also very close to a certain brand of make-at-home laksa kit you can get in some Asian grocery stores so it didn't taste particularly special. There was a good amount of fish balls, fish cake, prawn, and chicken. Unusually it came with green beans rather than bean sprouts.Overall recommended.

Got the ‘Pad thai £13.50’.It had prawns, chicken and fish cakes in it.It was really nice.The prawns weren’t the freshest though and the pad thai noodles themselves were slightly overcooked.The service was really good but the restaurant could have been cleaner.

In the West End to see a show and I saw that I had saved Laxsa Soho in Maps after reading an article.Booked a table and was seated quickly. The place was busy so is clearly a popular place to eat.We each ordered a Traditional Laxsa which came super quickly and was absolutely delicious. To drink, my husband had a beer and I chose the Pandan Leaf Collins which was delicious and a really different type of drink which I really enjoyed.2 Laksa and 2 drinks came to around £50 which I think is very reasonable. The staff were really attentive and very friendly. Will definitely be returning!
