The food was OK, nothing special, and the portions were small for the price. We had 2 appetizers, and 3 entrees, the ostrich, pepper prawns and seabass. I felt it was not enough food for 4 people. We ordered rice for 4 and... (more)

Well, I don't know how authentic it is, but Shiok is a great find in Menlo Park, its on a quiet street and it has great teas including the lime one that I had where you got to pour your own sweetener in. The shrimp was really... (more)

Strictly speaking there is no such thing as Singaporean Cuisine. It is really a hodgepodge of Chinese, Thai, Indian, Indonesian, and other Asia Cusines. Whatever it may be, all the dishes served at Shiok are... (more)

Shiok has delicious pan-Asian food...I highly recommend the roti dish. It's hearty, and you get a huge portion, but it's soft, buttery, and very, very yummy! Other noteworthy menu items are the grilled prawns and... (more)

I recently got the "Cholesterol lecture" from my doctor ... no panic, just eat better and exercise. I quickly discovered how hard is was to eat well for lunch. A burger with fries? Eeek! I finally found Shiok. For... (more)

Great food and service all round. It's authentic SINGAPORE food... nothing like your make believe fusion types. Neither is it Malaysian or Indonesian cuisine. If you have been to Singapore you'd definitely agree.... (more)

We tried the beef samosas which had no beef. Waitress suggested that the beef and vegetarian samosas look the same. Cost $6 for 2 small-ish samosas filled with just potato. We had Hokkien Mee - not authentic Malaysian... (more)

We love this Menlo Park Restaurant. Menlo Park downtown sucks, but this place makes it worth going to. We love the Roti Prata! The best around, however the curry sauce at Thaiphoon is much better. You really have to try... (more)

I've been going here for a couple of years and never been disappointed. Earlier this year they "refreshed" the look of the place to make it even more welcoming (especially at night). In other words, this is not a... (more)

I love their chilli crabs. It tastes so authentic with no pretentious efforts to make it a fushion style that we commonly find in Asian restaurants these days. Service and ambience is a bit family style so don't expect... (more)

Menlo Park is awfully white. This place isn't. On the Friday night we went by the customers ranged from adventurous blue-haired Menlo-ites to Indian families, young yuppie couples and what appeared to be a party of... (more)

Now there are lots of restaurants serving Singapore / Malaysian / Indonesian food. Straits is fine is you want Cal-fusion. But if you are looking for authentic "hawker"-style food this is it. The downside is that the... (more)
