Ayam Chef

What a lovely place tucked away in Melbourne. It's been a while since I have Singaporean/Malaysian food and it was really yum. Bring a friend or two and you get to try more dishes! The prawns were great and the hot plate Tofu will definitely make my son's list!
Will definitely come back the next time I visit.

Amazing Laksa! Love the service and the taste of it. I highly recommend this place

Have always had a great experience here. This time round, decided to order dishes and wasn't disappointed at all. The Nyonya chicken was crispy, moist, tangy and spicy. We also ordered the Thai fish, and both went so well with rice. The staff are always friendly. Definitely recommend this place.

This beautiful Malaysian restaurant is so close to my temporary accommodation and have lots of yummy foods. Staff are extremely helpful and will assist you to choose the best option from the menu. I’ve been there mid week and had a great experience. I definitely recommend to try this restaurant and support local businesses.

Thanks 🙏

Wanna have the Best Version of Malaysian Cuisine in (probably) Australia

Visit Ayam Chef! Period! That's the review.

Top-Notch Quality, Standard and Taste that is easy on the pocket is so rare these days and this place consistently excels in all these qualities. Nothing that we have ordered so far has been below excellent. Their portion sizes are big as well.

I ordered nasi goreng, Chicken curry rotti and curry laksa for takeaway. All the dishes were so delicious. Not the usual heavy seasoning kind of taste but real yumminess. Will be going back in the future when I feel like Malaysian food!

Drove past this place when I was looking for lunch, so I thought I give it a try. The food presentation might not get the "Master Chefs" approval, but they certainly taste good, together with reasonable prices, it is highly recommended for those who love food and not eating for the love of Instagram.

Had an amazing dinner here the other night. Authentic in flavours and good serving size. Service was fast and the stir fried dish had a good wok flavour to it. The hainan chicken was silky and tender. Definitely becoming one of our locals.

The best Malaysian restaurant in Melbourne hands down. Incredible selection of dishes with some wonderful chef specials - seafood in particular. Wonderful staff, easy park and walk into city afterwards. Highly recommend.

The food is extremely delicious i telling you guys!! And also fast to arrived!!one of the best Malaysian restaurant in Melbourne....Cheers to the Front and back of the house staff!🤟🍻....Ayam Chef Bole🇦🇺🇲🇾!

Visited this place a few times now and have ordered different dishes and everything has been delicious. My favourite so far is the chicken curry and the hot kumquat drink is yum! The service was prompt and attentive as well. A hearty lunch to have, watch out for the food coma though if you are going back to work. The price isn't bad at all either!

This is one of our favourite Malaysian restaurants in Melbourne. The dishes are authentic and the staff are very well organised and accommodating even at the busiest times. They do delivery (to the Southbank district) and pickup.

Been coming here for years. Never disappoints. Highly recommend the hawker dishes: nasi goreng, char kuey teow, roti and curry sauce, chicken satay - outstanding and very authentic

Missing home while in Melbourne , came here after countless recommendations from my friends living here

Nasi goreng is just wonderful , huge portions , good flavour too !

Feels just like home :D

If you are looking for good Malaysian food , come to ayam chef , it’s legit

I'm not a big fan of Malaysian food but this restaurant offers great delicious dishes. It's has become one of my favourites go to restaurant.

My all time favourite dishes are the Steamed Beanshoots, Salted Egg Chicken Ribs, Wasabi Mayo Pork, and Cereals Prawns. Now I can also added the Roti to my favourite dish. There are two sauces to accompany the roti; the peanut sauce and the curry sauce. I'm not so keen on their Dumplings, they are okay. We also ordered the Sizzling Beef with Black Pepper Sauce. I'm not liking this dish.

Overall, this restaurant offers us great foods and great service. The price is also right.

It's feel like I'm eating at home.

Ayam Chef simple Malaysian cuisine. I have been here for lunch and dinner and the quality of food and service has always been fantastic.

After taking my family here, it has become one of my family favourite restaurants!. There are so many great dishes but some of our favourites are chow hor fun, 5 spice chicken ribs, san low fried bee hoon, fried kueh teow and curry laksa! 👌🏻👌🏻(Just to name a few)
New dish Kam Hiong clams wow soo yummy and delicious.

The restaurant has a great atmosphere! And is always buzzing with diners as there are indoor and limited outdoor seating arrangement.

A shout out to Connie and the Ayam chef team! Keep up the fantastic work and the delicious food you provide.

Will see you soon!

Great place to have some food that makes you feel at home if you are south East Asian :)

The long beans are my favourite, steam fish, sizzling tofu and also the dessert for the sago are all great!

Can’t go wrong with this food and it’s a definite try.

2nd Visit Sun Aug 2023: Gr8 to find quality has been maintained if not better. Had lunch with a few friends - curry laksa, claypot eggplant sambal, lobak & Kam Hiong calamari was delicious. Reasonable price at current cost of everything. Just get their attention for service. Authentic Malaysian - they have both hawker style stand alone & dine in menu.

1st Visit Aug 2019: Great authentic Malaysian fare & attentive service. Try the lemongrass chicken, eggplant sambal & Tofu. Goes well with the ginger rice.

Just delish and satisfying Malaysian cuisine, the Bee Hoon a highlight and salted egg chicken ribs one of the best we've had. Staff were super busy but still friendly and warm, just know what you want!
Only slight quibble is the Nasi Lemak needs more of that good samal! 4.5 stars rounded up

One of my go to restaurants that serves authentic south East Asian food. They offer both dine-in and take away services, and the food quality and taste will not disappoint. Some of my favourites include their San Low Fried Beehoon and Salted egg chicken spare ribs. Or if you're wanting a quick meal, the Nasi Lemak and Hainanese Chicken rice are great options.
