2023-05-31 18:01:23Market-like restaurantI found a dried fish whose package was written in Japanese even though it was an Indonesian food store.

2017-06-21 07:13:43My friend suggested I tried their fried chicken. They have 3 different seasonings. I started out with #1 which comes with a crunchy topping. My daughter got noodles with no meat and they substituted it with tofu. I was very happy with my fried chicken. I got a half chicken which is on the small side but just the right amount for me.This w place was crazy busy at lunch time and there was a few groups waiting for a table. The parking lot is super small and youll have to wait for a space because theres no other parking near by.

2017-08-03 23:38:09As I was browsing Indonesian restaurants at LAs area to try on yelp. I came across this Indonesian restaurant. My husband really missed eating Indonesian food. Especially me... I really want to eat gado2 (Indonesian salad with peanut sauce) that tastes really like my favorite gado gado in my hometown in East Java, Indonesia.I was reviewing the pictures from this restaurant and found it.So we order 1 order of nasi bebek (duck rice), 1 order gado2, 1 es teler (avocado, jackfruit, green gelatin, coconut, palm fruits, coconut milk, shaved ice, syrup, & condensed milk), and 1 es blewah (shredded cantaloupe with ice & syrup). The portions of nasi bebek and gado2 were huge. So delicious. Highly authentic Indonesian cuisine. Especially the gado2...was much the same as my favorites.We also ordered for to go, 1 order empal goreng (marinated fried beef) and another nasi bebek.We really liked eating here and the service was great. We will definitely be back, enjoy.

2020-11-09 05:29:43Family-run Indonesian restaurant with fried chicken. They’re currently offering takeout/pickup during covid. I’ve always seen this place whenever I go get a massage at Ancient Thai, so we ordered lunch here on a Sunday. You can order online through their website or via phone. They said it would take ~20 minutes to prepare, but it was closer to 30. There were some Indonesian food stuff for sale inside the restaurant, and they enforce wearing a mask, social distancing, etc. Credit cards are accepted. Parking is available in the strip mall lot.Food-wise, the meat is a bit on the smaller side, but the flavor is top-notch. The half fried chicken (ayam kremesan)was more akin to the size of a quarter chicken, but the chili sauce and the fried crunchy things that came on the side were delicious. The sate babi (pork sticks) were also on the smaller side, but very tasty. The peanut sauce that came on the side was thick and peanut buttery; it completed the sticks very well. The chicken fried rice (nasi goreng Jawa) had a slightly pungent taste (maybe due to the fish sauce) but had a generous serving size and had a decent level of moistness. Overall, it’s a small family-run restaurant with authentic, good food with reasonable prices.

2021-11-21 16:27:48Stopped by here as I didnt want to stay in traffic on the 60 and came in for a quick snack/light dinner. The rissole and nasi bungkus didnt disappoint at all. Be prepared to get takeout since they have limited seating in the store and outside. Will def visit again!

2018-09-11 06:02:28Great chicken place! I like how they put all the fried crumbs just on top so you can adjust how much you want to eat and not feel too oily after eating all the breadings. Good for my Keto diets, too!

2019-03-22 19:44:12Fried chicken (actually Cornish hens?) Is good albeit very small. Also tried stir fried vegetables and tumeric chicken soup. All are good. If you are in the area, I think this restaurant is worth a visit. I wouldnt go out of my way to eat here though as there are plenty of good fried chicken options these days.

2019-01-19 03:53:43Second time here and it definitely hasnt disappointed me yet!Owners are such friendly people and make meals that give you the feeling that youre right in their home kitchen.Today I chose the Ayam Goreng Kremesan (fried chicken with tumeric marinade and spicy shrimp paste sauce) and was delighted to find out how deceiving the chicken looked. It appeared dried out like it had been refried but once I grabbed a piece with my fork the chicken began to fall off the bone.Dont miss out on adding a bit of lime to the chicken and a bit of that shrimp paste sauce with it. Half a bird was more than enough for me with a side of rice. For about $10 for the meal Im a satisfied customer.
