About Sui Restaurant

Sui delivers an authentic split-shift feast on Unley Road, pairing regional Sarawak street fare with rich Taiwanese dinner banquets. Lunch focuses on hawker staples—steaming bowls of Sarawak laksa and comforting Foochow noodle soup—while the evening menu pivots to generous family-style platters. Diners regularly single out the house-made crispy taro duck, layering savory, seasoned meat beneath a delicate fried taro crust. Tables fill with crisp Nestum cereal king prawns, silky crab roe tofu, and complimentary pots of hot tea.

  • Signature Taro Duck: Tender, seasoned duck encased in a crisp shell of whipped mashed taro.
  • Family-Style Feasts: Generous share plates designed for group dining, from crab roe tofu to cereal prawns.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do the lunch and dinner menus differ?

Sui features a dedicated Malaysian lunch menu highlighting regional East Malaysian (Sarawakian) fare like Sarawak laksa, Foochow noodles, and kolo mee, while the dinner menu focuses on extensive Taiwanese and Chinese banquet-style specialties cooked by a Taiwanese chef.

What are the standout dishes to order?

The crispy taro duck—featuring tender duck encased in a crisp, fried mashed taro layer—is one of the most frequently recommended signature dishes, alongside favorites like crab roe tofu, Nestum cereal king prawns, and sweet and sour pork.

How are the portion sizes and dining style?

Diners report generous serving sizes, with entrees and mains well-suited for sharing around the table. Complimentary peanuts and prawn crackers are often served with meals, along with warm rice in a side pot.

Where is the best place to park?

Parking directly behind the restaurant block is largely designated for staff, so street parking along Young Street is generally the easier option when driving.
