Wau is a authentic malay restaurant. Everything makes you feel you are in KL for a while. Food is good. Try the Curry Laksa! Only mishap: no malay beers (Tiger, Singha or anything like that) but thats ok.

We had dinner at Wau on Wednesday, November 27 with a group from work. 1. The Sfeer was super gezellig!!!! My colleagues loved it. 2. The owner Ben Kot was so helpful and welcoming - and very bescheiden :-) 3. Last but not least, the food was soooooooooo amazing, You could taste the time and love that it took to prepare the wonderful dishes. Reminded me of my mom's loving homemade dishes. Thank you Mr. Kot for a wonderful evening. We enjoyed ourselves so much. and thank you for also being so easy about the flower delivery for my colleage and having it ready on the table for us when we arrived. I will certainly be back. God Bless!

We had a nice evening with friends. In the restaurant it was a bit too warm so we did not stay too long.

Server was super cranky, blamed us for not giving the order correctly. The flavours were NOT there, even the peanut sauce was bland (and I honestly do not know how that’s even possible). The satay were NOT charcoal grilled, no smokey flavour at all. The only thing that tasted nice were the green chilies on the table. Definitely very much a disappointment, especially since we were in Malaysia last month.

Nice cosy restaurant in a lively street. We sat at the window with the doors open so we got both the vibes in and outside of the restaurant. Great Malaysian spiced food, perfect variety of satay, nice vegetarian dishes as well so something for all to choose from! Bottle of Prosecco to go with the food, great combination!

If you like Malaysian food and happen to be in Amsterdam, this is the place! Its a small restaurant and seats can fill up quite fast so better reserve in advance! The food was just amazing, definitely one needs to try the famous Nasi Lemak! Until next time, Terima Kasih!

Food is good. Service is a bit slow but if you are not in hurry, it is perfect. You could have a good long chat with friends while waiting for the food :)

Never disappointed! My favorite restaurant in Amsterdam. Taste and flavors remind me so much of the ones I experienced in my youth when we lived in Malaysia. If you're looking for genuine Malaysian food (and especially satay - only in the evenings of course), that's definitely the place to go, and believe me, I've been searching for places like that in all the many places I've been across Europe over many years. I only found another match: a Singaporean restaurant in Birmingham.

Very poor service We had to pay 1 euro each for the glass when we asked for tap water! We had shrimp fried dumplings for starters which were dry. Half way through our meal, the handle of the door of the restaurant! My friend accidentally dropped her mocktail as she was handed the glass, it took more than 10 minutes for them to clear the floor. Then when we were given the bill i mentioned that the spilt drink was not replaced. The owner then said well ‘Shit happens!’ So so rude! We paid our bill with no tip and left!! Would highly NOT recommend this restaurant!!! We accidentally We had beef rendang which lacked sauce and flavour We asked for pina colada mocktail and they put like juice in it and served one without a straw.

Food was lovely, very warming and delicious. Service was slow but I think that was due to the restaurant being very busy. Well priced for the quality too
