What David Tyler likes about Jaya 888:

I sought out this restaurant for Malaysian food and could not have been more disappointed. I ordered rendang, but the dish was all but unrecognizable. I believe the cook took sliced beef that was readied for a Chinese-style stir fry and simply sauteed it in a boxed curry that did not taste like rendang at all.

Nestled in Chinatown, Jaya 888 offers a blend of Malaysian comfort food and classic American Chinese dishes. Many diners rave about the Beef Rendang, roti canai, and unique offerings like eight treasure shaved ice. However, experiences vary widely, with reports of inconsistency in food quality and service. Some patrons found the rendang unrecognizable, while others faced billing discrepancies. The ambiance leaves much to be desired, with concerns over cleanliness and dim lighting. Although some dishes shine, potential visitors should approach with caution and be ready for a mixed dining experience.
