Ma-Makan

After spending a year in Berlin, I finally found a place that truly captures the taste and feel of home – authentic Mee Laksa just like in Malaysia! The flavors were spot on – rich, spicy, and comforting. The shop’s setting immediately transported me back to Malaysia, with its familiar decor and casual vibe. The staff were incredibly friendly and welcoming, which made the experience even more enjoyable. It’s rare to find such a genuine Malaysian food spot in Berlin, and this one absolutely nails it. Highly recommended for anyone craving real Malaysian flavors or looking to try something new and delicious!

We had such a wonderful experience here! The flavors were outstanding, and we were especially surprised by how delicious the tofu was. The dessert was another highlight; we didn’t expect the tapioca balls to be that amazing! We sat on the terrace, and with the lovely weather, it made the whole experience even more enjoyable. Highly recommend coming here to taste this delicious food!

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ I love Ma-Makan and come here regularly for a delicious lunch at Lausitzer Platz. The staff is always incredibly friendly and makes me feel very welcome, even when I come by myself during work breaks. The curries and main dishes are consistently excellent—my favorite is the chicken curry, with its deep flavor and perfect spice level. The nasi lemak is also a standout, and I enjoy getting a small portion of curry on the side with it. You can really feel the passion they put into the food. I’ll definitely keep coming back. Keep up the amazing work! ❤️

Our absolute favorite Restaurant in Berlin! Everytime we come back to Berlin this is our top spot on the bucket list. After living in Singapore for a few years we can definitely say that the food is the most authentic. Our top recommendations are the Kaya toast and kopi for breakfast and, of course, the amazing chicken rice which is also a great dinner option next to the Rendang curry. The staff is always super friendly and helpful, this combined with the great atmosphere makes you feel super welcome every single time.

A restaurant I’ve been to many times by now to get my fix as a Malaysian - the food and drinks are authentic and the staff are lovely The things I enjoy the most are probably the rotating menus and specials - I’m always keeping an eye out for anything new on the menu

My new favorite restaurant in Berlin! So authentic. Definitely try the Tofu starter and Nasi Lemak. I loved all the dishes and the natural wine was delicious too! Felt like being back in Malaysia. Such attention to detail in the dishware, outside street style stools, loved the interior, and really friendly service. Will be back, thank you Ma-Makan! 😍

Highly recommend! The food was excellent. After traveling a lot through Southeast Asia, we’d really been craving more authentic flavors—less of the overly sweet, Germanized versions you often find —and that’s exactly what we got here. I’m so glad I stumbled upon this place and will definitely be back. Sitting out on the terrace on a warm summer evening was such a great vibe, too. I highly recommend the pineapple cucumber dish (forgot what it’s exactly called) — it was super flavourful and refreshing. The staff were also incredibly friendly (a rare find in Berlin!) and even went out of their way to serve us the pandan dessert in a deconstructed style—since they had technically already sold out. It still looked beautiful and tasted amazing, by the way. :)

Love the service, love the food! I have yet to experience their Hainan chicken rice, however all the other dishes i tried so far were amazing!
