Belacan Grill - Malaysian Bistro 17460 17th Street, Tustin, CA 92780

"I have visited this place years ago and I remember having a good experience and amazing interior . So this time I wanted to try Malaysian fusion food and decided to visit here again. It was Friday night and I was not expecting it to be so full. I entered our name in the waiting list, we were 8 people including 5 kids . The waiting list said 1 hour . We really wanted to dine hence planned to wait. The waiting time turned to be 1:30 minutes . I kept on asking about our turn but the lady started being rude , mind you we had 5 hungry kids. The people who came after us were seated . We saw that there were seats outside those were empty. But the lady was persistent that we need to wait more. Finally a manager came and assisted us and apologize us for the delay and mismanagement . The food was ok, not worth the wait. We ordered Char keow teo, tangerine chicken , Kung pao chicken and Roti canai. The char keow teo was not what I was expecting it to be . Will I be visiting again? I might not. I am a big supporter of halal eateries but was disappointed."

"Wow, the food at Belacan is so tasty!! It’s no wonder there were people waiting as soon as they opened. We arrived around 5pm on a Saturday and were seated within 20 minutes or so. We ordered: • Teh ais (iced milk tea) • Roti canai • Fish Fillet with house chili tamarind sauce • Kankung (morning glory stir fried veggies) • Beef rendang • Malaysian curry chicken We loved all the dishes and the service was excellent. Our water was constantly refilled and our table was checked on. I would definitely recommend this spot and come back!"

"The last time we came here was 10 years and this plaza has expanded and doing very well now. Great menu selection and excellent customer service. The roti prata is great and satay was acceptable."

"Front rank of atmosphere for party with friends. The food is amazing in quantity, but the real Malaysian flavor or not depends on what you order. For example, the curry chicken I ordered is 100 percent genuine as the Malaysian flavor standard. But, Shrimp sauce water spinach is a little bit spicy even I can eat spicy food very well. The sambal shrimp had a flavor of sour sweet. Nevertheless, the restaurant reserves a visit."

"This is it!! As a Malaysian, I can say that their food are considered very authentic. Top two Malaysian food I had tried in the USA (I like to look for Malaysian food when I go to a new city). I am really glad that this is only 1.5 hrs away from my home. Wat Tan hot, Laksa, mamak mee goreng and of course roti canai!! Wonderful atmosphere and service on top of that. We asked and learned that the chef is from Ipoh (food city in Malaysia), no wonder!! Highly recommend!"
