  Cheap, good food, friendly staff. They also bring you complementary tea and fortune cookies at the end. Love it also for lunch, as the lunch menu is cheap and the portions are generous.

  The vegetables with black mushroom was great. Actually, all of the green vegetable dishes were delicious!

  Royal East Restaurant is a new restaurant. They have very good vegetarian (and vegan) options, like basil eggplant, which is good for me. Excellent food, and very good prices. Well worth a visit.

  I am taking stars off because of slow service (ended up canceling a dish because it took more than 40 minutes) AND a transparency issue. We were charged a 18% tip on the bill without even being asked. Be careful to check the bill before giving them your credit card.

  I have a group of foodie colleagues and today we were in Cambridge for work, so we decided to go out for lunch. We went to Royal East restaurant; they serve both Chinese & Malaysian food. One of my colleague is from Malaysia, and recommended the authentic Malaysian dishes.
  For appetizer, we had Roti Canai, Satay Chicken & Poh Piah. The satay chicken was too good, specially the sauce that came with it was very different than the normal peanut sauce that you get in any other restaurant. I loved the roti canai as well; the roti was fresh & flaky (which is good) & the chicken curry that was served with it was just awesome!
  For entree, we ordered Kurma Lamb, Hainanese Chicken, Beef Rendang, Pineapple Shrimp, Chicken Rice and Coconut Rice. The kurma lamb was spicy, flavorful but not hot and the beef rendang was hot & spicy. I did not like the Hainanese chicken much, as it is a steamed chicken dish, so I found the smell of chicken in it very strong. The rice dishes were very tasty too.
  All in all food was very good, every bite bursting with flavors and absolutely tasty. Being in Cambridge area it was obviously very busy, but the host was very courteous. I will definitely visit Royal East again and recommend you to try this place as well.

  You must try the roti and kari! The staff were so friendly and spent so much time recommending things for me to bring to a pot luck at my uni. Will definitely be going back.

  One of the only places to get south east Asian cuisine, I am thankful it is here. Ippo fried noodles are great, so is the char quay teow (for Boston standards)
