"I've never tried Indonesian food before. After reading all the great reviews on Yelp about this place and it's authenticity, I decided to give it a try. Walked in here on a Tuesday evening and there was no one inside. Place was a lot smaller than it appeared in photos and there are only about 3 4 tables inside, and one of them was occupied by the owner. It's a small family runned restaurant and we were greeted by the owner or matriarch of the family. She seemed unprepared for business and was preoccupied. We didn't mind and sat down. We wanted to try the tapas sampler for two but didn't since we didn't feel like it would be worth it. We ordered lumpia, nasi Goreng and Kare Ayam (which is basically mammasen curry with chicken). The lumpia looked like a big patty I was expecting more of a thin spring roll like Filipino lumpia. Nonetheless, it was good. The nasi goreng was essentially beef fried rice and the curry chicken tasted like a home cooked meal. While I'm not an expert on Indonesian food so I'm not speaking on its authenticity, the dishes tasted pretty standard to me. Both dishes tasted like a home cooked meal I can make at home, which makes sense since this was a family run restaurant that's been around for many years in the Park Slope neighborhood. Food is good but nothing outstanding in my opinion. However, don't let my review steer you away from this place my rating is solely based on my palate. This restaurant seems to be quite popular so do give it a try and support this small business.Also, note this place is cash preferred. They charge an additional fee for card payments."

"I was greeted by a very attentive staff at the door. A friend suggested this facility to come together, take a bite and catch up. We had lamb roasted rice and lamb cabobs. Both dishes were perfectly prepared. I also had an avocado potion that was smooth and refreshing. Very recommended."

"I came to this place today because I have been have been craving for Indonesian food for a while. This review is not to throw shade at the cuisine but to this place. I ordered the Nasi Padang and wasn't disappointed except for their chicken curry in the Nasi Padang. I was disappointed because as soon as I split the chicken from the bone, it smelled really bad! The chicken was not fresh! Coming from a culture that doesn't like to waste food, I still took a stab at it and to be honest, the chicken was horrible! It tasted and looked like the chicken was rotting away and they still decided to cook it. Talk about food safety. I could've gotten sick from it. Very disappointed in what I came out here for. I chose this place because the other Indonesian places were either fusion of Thai and Chinese mashed alongside Indonesian food which was not what I was looking for. No doubt the menu is good (they're the only ones in the area that were open and had authentic dishes) but please if you are the owner of this place and you are reading this, please practice food safety before any of your customers practice their right to sue you for damages because of food poisoning. Needless to say, I would not come back here again and I would not recommend this place to anybody."

"Great atmosphere and friendly staff. It was nice to be able to catch up with people from Bandung and Bogor. The tofu satay had a nice crust charcoal aroma with generous serving of the satay sauce. The ayam bakar Bali was good as well. Just enough crisp on the outside with aromatic sweet and spicy soya sauce glaze with fresh red chili (There's no substituting the taste of a fresh cut/ground red chili on a spicy sauce). The kelepon was good but can use a little bit more gula jawa filling (more is always good). The Martabak was good also. The Kwetiau Goreng was so-so though. But more items to try ... Will be back for sure. Can you guys make Siomay Bandung please ???"

"I've been a huge fan of Simpang Asia for decades, but it's quite pricey. So, when I came across this more affordable Indonesian restaurant featuring some of my favorites on the menu, I was excited! However, upon delivery, I was thoroughly disappointed. The Nasi Bungkus was overcooked and lacked flavor. The Gado Gado Salad was an absolute disaster—it's hard to even describe how bad it was. The Es Cendol had far too much sugar, and the Chicken Satay was overcooked and drowned in an unappetizing sauce. Having lived in Southeast Asia, I can confidently say that Simpang Asia does it right, while this place is nowhere near the mark."

"I recently visited this restaurant and had a disappointing experience. The food was just okay, but it didn't taste fresh. The portion sizes were extremely small; I only received one piece of meat when I ordered a combo. We requested the noodles to be a little spicy, but they added an overwhelming amount, making them inedible after just one bite. I had to order additional dishes because we were still hungry, and I had to order everything separately. The portions I saw in the photos looked much better than what we received. In the end, I paid $90 for two people, and I will not be returning."

"If you're a fan of Thai and Indian cuisine, this restaurant is a must-visit! It offers a delightful Dutch-Indonesian fusion that perfectly balances flavors without being overwhelming. The portion sizes are just right, allowing you to savor every bite and finish your plate! If you haven’t tried it yet, I highly recommend the rijsttafel, or rice table, which provides a wonderful opportunity to sample a variety of dishes—it's absolutely delicious! They also have an outstanding wine list, and if you're unsure about what to pair with your meal, Pieter, the owner, will gladly help you choose like a pro. This restaurant has truly brought something unique to the Miami food scene, and its off-the-beaten-path location adds to the charm of discovering a hidden gem. Plus, after your meal, you can take a leisurely stroll to the beach since it’s just a block away!"
