Uncle Chin's Kitchen

So happy we found this hidden gem! Every dish is freshly made to order with care and authentic flavors. The owner and the young cashier were both incredibly warm and welcoming. If you’re looking for genuine Malaysian cuisine, this place is definitely worth a visit. Highly recommend!

My family and I had an exceptional experience here. The owner was incredibly kind and helpful. We ordered the combo A which came with the Hainanese chicken, roti, and chicken satay. In addition, we got the nasi lemak which was served on a banana leaf. The chicken was juicy and the skin was crispy with the perfect amount of seasoning. We had a wholesome time and definitely will be back!

Nut allergy friendly: There's a peanut sauce for the satay skewers, but I was fine with everything else. The employees are fluent in English so no problems in ordering! Time to Order: 20-45 minutes? We were in a group so maybe that's not accurate, but we also ordered a lot. Roti Canai (5/5): One of the best roti Canai I've ever had. The curry is thick with potato and super tender chicken and the roti canai bread is chewy but somehow still flaky and flavorful at the same time. It was so good that I ordered another one for myself to go to let my partner try it at home. Malaysian Chicken Satay (5/5): You will read "tender chicken" in my review several times. It's not a joke. The chicken nearly melts in your mouth. The last time I had meat this tender it was a filet mignon that was 6x the price of this dish. Char Kuey Tow (4.5/5) and Mee Goreng (4.5/5): Yeah we got both the flat noodle and the mee goreng. Because both are awesome. Noodles stayed chewy, beansprout and veggies were great, proteins were great. Not too saucy. Solid. Uncle Chen's Sizzling Tofu (4.5/5): We got this seafood style and it comes loaded with shrimp, calamari.. fantastic. Great by itself or on rice. The middle gets a little soggy if you let it sit too long, so chow down on this whole it's hot! Roasted Hainanese Chicken (4/5): Nothing against the dish itself, I just don't like all the bones. Yes, the chicken was beautifully tender. Chicken rice, also fantastic. Curry Chicken Puff (4.5/5): So this was way more filling than I expected. It's like an intense Asian empanada? Totally worth it. Comes out really hot. Lastly, we got a serenade from the man himself. Yes, he pulls out a mic and sings. It's his break from cooking during the dinner rush. So, you might indeed get dinner and a show! It's beautiful to see someone who enjoys what he's doing - and his voice is such that some people think it's a song over the intercom instead of live music, take that how you will :) TL;DR: Absolutely contends for Best in Katy. Yes, it lived up to the hype. Come and eat family style and you won't be disappointed!

Genuinely divine food. Like every dish is amazing. I usually get the beef Rendang, stir fry noodles, sweet n sour fish, or roti canai. They are all amazing. Amazing taste. Uncle Chin the goat
