Malai Kitchen - Southlake

Every time my husband and I visit my family in the area, we get our first dinner after landing here (and then come at least two more times each trip). Most of the vegetarian stuff can be made vegan, and it's all delicious. Sometimes it can be a touuuuch too saucy, but still really good.

I’m in love with Asian fusion restaurants! This place was a show stopper! Staff was super knowledgeable about veganism and willing to help with options. The Singapore sling cocktail was mouth watering and every dish we had from the free sticky rice Appetizer to the tofu supplement bahn mi was amazing! The patio was cheerful, well lit, had good air circulation and wonderful music. The only downside (besides serving animal flesh) was the photograph in the ladies room of what looked to be sheep in a cage on the back of a moped. Very sad. But other than that the restaurant was clean and seemed well managed, we recommend getting a rezi (reservation).

Came here for my birthday last year, as a lactovegetarian. I asked for the fried rice without the egg and the server offered tofu (which wasn’t even listed on the menu). She made sure everything she gave me was vegan, even though I wasn’t vegan. However, within days of that experience, I decided to fully convert to veganism. I’ll be going again this year!

My wife and I ate here about a month ago. Most of the food we had was delicious and they allowed us to change almost any dish to make it either Vegan of vegetarian (for my wife). Food is very greasy, so if you are like me and don't use a lot of oil, please be aware. Only bad food item was the vegetable samosa my wife had. She was not a fan and only had a couple of bites. We will return.

I was so happy to try out Malai Kitchen when I was visiting my parents in Texas. The menu clearly labels vegetarian dishes and the chef is more than happy to make the vegetarian dishes vegan friendly. The portions were very large and the flavor was GREAT! I really wish there was a place like this closer to me in NY, I would eat here all the time. Definitely a good option if you are craving asian food!
