Hainanese chicken is the must have. The food came out at flashing speed and tasted great. We always come here after going to Boston events. Very reasonable price. The restaurant is sometime packed so would need to reserve a head of time

Penang is great for large group dinners. My family and I used to go here a lot. It can get quite busy given its location in the heart of Chinatown, so try to make a reservation.
There are a lot of options that are all decently priced and large enough to be shared. I like the pad Thai and Hainanese chicken.
Service can be a hit or miss depending on how busy it is.

Penang will absolutely never disappoint- their Wonton soup is one of our faves; comforting with a big pile of thin egg noodles and plump, juicy wontons! The string beans are fried to perfection- other hits include their chicken pad Thai and Roti Canai

Loved the food that I ordered here! I loved the pancake? that you use to dip with curry. The stir fried dishes were really yummy (really recommend the beef) so I will definitely come back here!!

That fact that I got a hot soup after a day of walking and biking and still think its great says enough. I got the Prawn Mee and it has two type of noodles. Thick egg noodle and vermicelli. Lots of shrimp and pork in it. All delicious and not too salty. I want to come back for the laksa. I bet this would taste better in the winter.

We liked it. It was super tasty and price is good. Will definitely come again.

The food came in big portions but the taste was a bit too simple, maybe because of the menus I chose. However, I think the taste of the satay sauce is important. It should be tastier as I'm quite used to this menu and tried many places elsewhere.

I visited here for something NEW away from hot pot or Asian fusions. This Malaysian restaurant was quite cozy and the service was very very fast. Also the food was awesome and reasonable. I honestly was not satisfying with the temperature of dishes (a little cold for me) but still the chicken skin was chewy and bubbly. Try chicken cuisines and some stir fried rice!
++ Whole size chicken seems to serve for three. It's too big for two.

Watermelon juice was super sweet not sure if they added sugar but still could taste legit watermelon so it was good. Fast plate of chicken rice and Laksa. Great portion for the price! When we swing back around to Boston we will surely stop in.
