I had these guys before and their Indonesian food is super delicious! Today I went for their Lumpia and they were super good. I enjoyed the lightness of the crispy texture before biting into the soft and moist veggies. It came with a small sweet and sour sauce which was really nice. The gentleman that took my order was very friendly and super quick in getting my order ready. Really friendly folks with excellent food. I highly recommend them, try them out and enjoy! read more

As an Indonesian, I've wanted to try Bumbu truck ever since I discovered we have an Indonesian food truck here in town. However their stops are never close to where I've lived or worked. Until more recently as chance would have it, we had an appointment near Bothell area and they posted they would be in the surrounding area that day. We made a quick stop there on our way to our appointment. After circling the large office complex, we located the food truck and immediately placed our order. I'm a satay lover so naturally I ordered the Satay with Fried Rice which comes with 3 skewers, fried rice and side salad. He got the Curry Over Fried Rice which comes with a yellow chicken curry, friend rice, one satay and a side salad. It was too cold in the parking lot, we went somewhere else and found a picnic table at a park that we could enjoy our late lunch at. There was only one man working in the food truck who was super friendly and welcoming. He offered us a sample of their delicious sambal (you can taste the terasi/belacan in it). Though, there was a little oversight that the bowl which the curry was served in didn't come with a lid. We weren't informed of it so we spilled the curry all over in the car. We were able to save half of the curry. Regardless, I personally think the food were all delicious. You could taste all the seasonings - though I prefer the spices to be a tad stronger (if I'm being picky). The satay was all soft covered in a delicious satay peanut sauce and you can further dip your satay in a sweet soy dipping sauce. The fried rice is savory, garlicky, sweet and salty.. accompanied with a fresh chopped salad.. On such a biting-cold windy Seattle afternoon, the warm, flavorful and fragrant meals truly hit the spot. read more

The cute Bumbu Truck lunch was un-inspiring and over priced. Parked in the North Creek area of Bothell, on the edge of walking trails though the suburban sprawl of low rise office building, this food truck ruined my lunch. This was my first time visit, I had high hopes for a new lunch option (truck) as we meander back to our offices. Instead, I was served a lunch consisting of a single flavor. I ordered the "Undecided" $15, a sampling of several items. Thumbs down to the refried rice and noodles, marginal acceptance of the chicken on skewer, and a "nice" rating to the time little salad on the side. There is no thought, fore-sight, effort, or creativity added to this hastily assembled lunch. It was just an over-salted plate of reheated food that should have never been cooked in the first place. I only ate about half, that is all I could pallet. The unfortunate part is, I drove by 2 other "Asian" inspired, strip mall places that serve far better lunch than the "Undecided" $15 meal. No, I do not recommend No, I will not be back. Yes, I am now decided. No more Bumbu Truck for me. read more

Bumbu Truck - Truck at North Creek area Bothell - Food Trucks Near Me

Bumbu comes by regulary to our office and I have had them a couple of times. We get a list of food trucks emailed to us monthly, and if I forgot to bring a lunch and see Bumbu on the list for the day, I usually don't mind grabbing a lunch from their truck! Prices: typical food truck prices I have had: - Undecided Combo - Chicken Satay I really like their satay and egg roll. As for the noodles rice and salad that comes with the Undecided Combo, it's alright, nothing overly amazing. The lunch box is filling though. I love Asian food so whenever I see an Asian food truck in my work parking lot, I am usually more than happy to buy food from them! read more

This food truck is not bad. When we went to grab it, we were alone in the line and it look maybe 3 minutes to get our food, which was excellent. The food itself is definitely quick street food- it's pretty greasy. It's got decent tasty to it, but reminded me of Chinese takeout, but with Indonesian flavor. I quite liked the the chicken satay and peanut sauce, that was great! Fried rice was good too. I wasn't a fan of the noodles, but the fiancé was. Overall, it's not bad and a great quick option for dinner or lunch! read more

Fun Fact: For those foodies who are familiar with Food Network's show, Chopped.... the owner of Bumbu won in 2015! With that noted, I couldn't wait to try this truck. They offer daily specials, however, based on others' reviews, I already knew what I wanted to order from the regular menu: The Undecided Combo ($11), which includes two chicken satay skewers, fried rice (Nasi Goreng), noodles, a lumpia and salad. I'm all about sampling, so this was the perfect lunch and the serving was so generous that it provided me with two meals! Everything was delicious and bursting with flavor. The chicken skewers were tender and nicely grilled, brushed lightly with peanut sauce. Usually I find the taste of peanut sauce overwhelming, but their version was just right and had a touch of sweetness to it. I LOVED both the noodles and the Nasi Goreng. The noodles were cooked perfectly with notes of garlic and mixed with cabbage for crunch. Also, I can't remember the last time I ate up every single grain of rice on my plate, but with their bold and savory Nasi Goreng, I couldn't bear to leave any of it behind. YUM! I unfortunately found my lumpia to be soaked in oil and both the noodles and rice left a glossy film in the container. Although I enjoyed my order, I didn't feel the healthiest after eating it. However, the salad - consisting of chopped cucumber, carrot and cabbage - was refreshing and its vinegar-based dressing helped cut through the grease. It also had a surprising hint of heat! Service was friendly and pretty quick. It was pouring outside, but I appreciated how they set up an umbrella stand by the ordering line. In addition to fantastic food of course, it's the small gestures like this that I find memorable and convince me to return! 4.5 stars. read more

Bumbu Truck - Undecided Combo ($11) - Chicken Satay, Nasi Goreng (rice), noodles, salad and lumpia!  Delicious & filling! - Food Trucks Near Me

Food: *** | Service: **** | Value: *** We got the undecided combo, the fried rice combo, and the roti. I'm usually a big fan of Javanese stir-fried noodles, but this time, I actually prefer their fried rice over noodles. The roti is pretty good but the chicken curry that comes with it was just meh. I think the best thing from their menu is the satay - I will go back just for that! Would I make another 20 mins trip to go back and have their food? Probably not... But if I happen to see them at an event, I will probably grab some satays :) read more

Food was average, very average. What bothers me the most is how my total was $27.00 but somehow my card was charged over $5.00 more and I wasn't given an option to tip in the first place. I would have tipped if given the option myself; I don't appreciate the owners helping themselves to it. Another possibility: there is a debit card fee. That would have been nice to know. I realize it's 5 bucks but it's principle. Doubt I'll order from them again. read more

Bumbu parked in the courtyard near by office so I thought I'd try them and was delightfully surprised. Got some tasty Indonesian street food - curry over rice with potato, a cold, sweet cucumber salad and chicken. Only cost $10. The gal that worked the window was polite. Took about 8 minutes to get my order with three others ahead of me waiting. read more

This is one of the trucks that we are a regular at. Good food and quick service make this one a great option. They usually do have specials, but I always end up getting th undecided combo. It includes fried rice, stir fried noodles, salad, 2 skewers of chicken satay, and a lumpia. Th3 food is always good. I like this because you get a little of every thing to make a complete meal. The one complaint we have is the aluminium foil they add in the takeout boxes under the food, makes it a little tricky to eat with a fork. read more

Bumbu Truck - Undecided combo - Food Trucks Near Me

I was very excited that my apartment building brought this food truck in for us. The menu looked promising and the plates sounded like they were going to be good. I ordered my food and I was taken care of by a very kind woman. The business seems family owned. I ordered the "The Undecided Combo" which brings "Fried Rice, Stir Fry Noodle, 1 Lumpia, 2 Chicken Satay, Salad" and my boyfriend ordered the "Chicken Curry Over Fried Rice" which brings "Fried Rice, Chicken Curry, 1 Chicken Satay, Salad". The food tooks over 30 minutes to make. As soon as I opened our food I was disappointed. The portions were really small for what we paid. At first bite the food tasted bad. The rice had a weird taste and our chicken did not taste like chicken. The food seemed like it was old even though I saw them cooking after I ordered. Maybe it was a one off chance, but I will not be giving this place another chance. The food was just not good. read more

If you live here long enough, you know how hard it is to find good Indonesian food!!! And I found it and I am so happy! I went there 2 different times. First time I got the famous undecided combo to try everything out, and the second time I was not too hungry so I chose the Roti with curry. The undecided combo is all you have ever wanted. Where to even begin? The salad is moist and fresh, not mayo mix vinegar trash sauce but the authentic saucing. The noodles look dry but actually moist and flavorful. The satay was perfect and the nasi goreng is amazing! (Only had the knockoff American version..But kinda know what it should taste like) Just... perfect lunch right there. The curry dipping is BEST I have EVER had! I was worried that it would be like the trashy knockoff curry they make in Teriyaki places, cause that's what Americans are used to as "Asian curry". But NO! They got the lemongrass and coconut milk flavor right there. Just like the authentic Indonesia curry. IN LOVE! And the roti is finally a perfect grilled crispy and soft roti, not some trash one they heat up to hot enough temp. That says something if you know you knowww! The "fire" (aka "wok hei" in cantonese sorry idk how to translate that) is there! OMG I LOVE IT. I am craving for their food constantly!!! So good and so authentic! Not from Indonesia but been to Singapore and from Hong Kong. Have had so much Indonesia influenced food in both Singapore and HK. I AM SO HAPPY for this! Recommended 100%! Wish they get to open a spot somewhere later cause I WILL GO AS MUCH AS I CAN! Thank you for making good food! No more sad lunches (sometimes)! read more

Bland and small portions but satisfying. I don't know Indonesian food well but I didn't expect bland. Had the "Undecided plate".

Delicious food made with care! I had the "Undecided Combo" for $15. The food was super tasty, not greasy at all. The salad was fresh and had a nice light dressing. The noodles, rice, and meat were all cooked perfectly. Perfect amount of peanut sauce. Will definitely go back to this food truck! read more

Bumbu makes super tasty food! I came here for lunch tempted by the promise of Indonesian curry over rice and was really happy with what I got. A generous portion (appx half a square takeout container) of fried rice topped with savory and spiced curry. With a side salad topped with peanut dressing, chicken satay stick & cucumber relish, it was altogether satisfying. I especially liked the satay and the curry. The curry to rice ratio was a little off - I was wishing for more curry to go with the last quarter of the remaining rice.. At $8 I'd say it's a decent value for a food truck. The curry ramen with egg looked a little skimpy in comparison ($7.5). The biggest drawback was the wait time. It took about 25 minutes for the food to be ready. Granted there were ~10 orders in front of me but given that they have only so many things on their menu, I'd imagine they'd be able to streamline something. read more

Bumbu Truck - Curry over rice! - Food Trucks Near Me

They never took my order. I was waiting for 30 minutes (1 person in front of me) in near-freezing weather while the person who was taking orders was in the back cooking food. She kept telling me to hold on. This could have been remedied by taking my order, giving me a wait time, and I would have come back when my food was ready. It isn't a good business practice to make people wait before they've placed their order, and especially not when you have to wait outside. They need a more efficient system in place. read more

Good food especially if you are craving Indonesian. It can takes a while to get your order though.

Food was very overpriced, wasn't seasoned it was very bland. When I found out they were coming o was exited but it was not good at all.

My first time trying Bumbu food truck. It happened to be at a bellevue apt near the area I was in. I find $15 reasonable for the nasi kuning - special menu item for the day. There were two meat - curry chicken and turmeric chicken drumstick and the portions were decent too. The Curry was not spicy, although we would have preferred both the chicken and curry to have a stronger /spiced flavor like we thought Indonesian food should have. We like the chilli, turmeric rice and the potato, peanut tempe medley. The medley was sweet and savory, very appetizing to go with the whole entree. I wouldn't go out of my way to get Bumbu but sure wouldn't mind ordering again if it's in the area. read more

I came here twice! First time, I ordered Chicken Curry Ramen but I wasn't impressed. But, I wasn't going to give up. I happened to have a chance to come back again today and they had chicken nasi goreng (only 3 left when I was there in line ordering). It was so yummy! The special Indonesian sauce they put on the side was very delicious. I loved how they marinated and grilled the chicken thigh. It was so tender and flavorful. The cold sole on the side was in peanut sauce dressing. I was happy I was able to get one of the left 3 chichen nsai goreng. I'd like to try their "undecided" on the menu next time. I think it's chef's choice. But, I think undecided is cool. read more

Bumbu Truck was at the Mobile Food Rodeo in the International District. The owners are really nice and staff are top notch. I've been meaning to check out the truck for awhile and finally got my chance. The curry beef lumpia is pretty darn good. I like the size, tight wrap, and perfect golden brown fry. The beef is slightly spicy and very flavorful. It comes with a bit of chili sauce and I tend to spatter a bit of sriracha on top. Yum! For $5, it's the right price for a great snack! I also tried nasi padang which is chicken dry curry. It came with white rice, collard green curry, and a hard boiled egg in red chili sauce. I specifically asked for a bit of spice in mine. I'm not very familiar with Indonesian food but I liked what I tasted. the chicken was tender and spiced well. I had never had collard greens with curry and it was a nice change of pace. The dish went well together. Opening up the red egg was fun. It was like opening a present and there was a perfectly yellow yolk inside. I enjoyed the meal and I'm sure I'll be back soon. read more

Bumbu Truck - Food Trucks Near Me

We visited Bumbu Truck at Lantern Brewing, and it was satisfactory. I ordered the Chicken Satay but received the Undecided combo, this was okay since there is a lot of overlap on the menu anyways. The food certainly isn't much for looks, a lot of brown, and I was surprised that there was not a ton of flavor to much of the rice and noodles. I will say that the lumpia was delicious though! Overall, this truck will fill you up for a good price. read more

This might be the closest thing Seattle has to real Indonesian food trucks (gerobak)! I've had their Nasi Gudeg and Nasi Padang. Holey crap! Indescribable perfection. Savor the flavor. Close your eyes and you can probably transport yourself to the streets of Jakarta. Warung Jajanan may have authentic Indonesian food, but they've all been boxes and packed and even frozen. On the contrary, Bumbu has everything freshly made by order and served to you hot. "Bumbu" means spices/seasoning in Indonesian, so remember that Indonesian cuisine is cooked and concocted with a variety of spices, seasonings, and TLC. Do NOT expect McDonald's drive-thru speed service at this mom and pop shop. Many people in line with me turned quite restless and annoyed waiting for their food. Go play with your phone or something. Don't try to rush the art of Indonesian cooking. Okay, maybe that's a little too much, but you get me. Be forewarned that it will take between 5-15 minutes to have your order made (unless you're ordering a simple snack). read more

This is for the South Lake Union location. The line time was 25 minutes. I get to the front of the line and all the chicken curry ramen was gone. There wasn't a notification or something written that it was gone. I get the chicken curry over fried rice, but the chicken satay was sold out. They offered $1 off or a lumpia, which ended up at $7. I asked for an egg and they added the $1 back to total at $8. Oh wells. The chicken curry ramen was $7, which includes and egg / no satay. Not sure what the price justification for my order was since I just replaced noodles with fried rice. The food wait time was 32 minutes. I got my food, and I'll admit the food was very tasty but it didn't seem like it would take that long to deliver. Two pre-made salads, fried rice with curry and a fried egg on top. I assume they are making each fried rice to order since that has to be the explanation. I wouldn't go back again. The lines are similar to other trucks but they don't have their operations together to churn out product in a timely manner. The food was good, but not worth the ~1 hour wait. There's better food trucks in SLU to choose from. read more

Bumbu Truck - Chicken Curry over Fried Rice with a Fried Egg. - Food Trucks Near Me

I really love variety and am a sucker for indo/Malay food. This truck often helps satisfy that need. Probably my fave is the curry beef lumpia and the roti canai. Funny enough, the cucumber salad is fresh and delicious as well. I'd like to visit their restaurant at some point too because I think they'll have fresher satay, but the truck food us pretty good. 3.5 stars. I'm a fan. read more

If you're fortunate enough to find this gem in your vicinity, cancel your plans and proceed directly to the Bumbu Truck. The queues can be long, so be prepared to wait a bit. But it is worth it. The "Undecided" is arguably the best for a first timer. It's a sampler plate of Indonesian delights. Get the lumpia as a side. Their take on Chicken Satay is the real shiny star. It's ethereal. Perfumed with coconut, nuts and Indonesian spices make this a surprising symphony in your pie hole. Why are you still reading this? Go get in line already! read more

Great, affordable Indonesian food! Generous portions. The nasi kuning/yellow rice is soooo fragrant and rich just like in Indonesia (I can taste the pandan?). I really like nasi kuning so I kinda wish there's more of it vs. the noodle (although the noodle tastes good too). Please make the nasi kuning a permanent addition to the menu! The satays are juicy too! I also think the choice of acar/asinan as the accompanying salad goes along really well with the satay. I hope they expand their menu so that I can try more stuff from here. read more

This truck was parked behind babies rus in Bellevue. I walked over without knowing which truck was going to be there but I am always excited to find authentic Indonesian so I decided to give it a try. Having an undecided combo is great for foodies. I debated whether to try the Nasi Tim Ayam, twice steamed chicken mushroom rice, but I could not pass up on the chance to try their classic. The couple running the place were very friendly. They had run out of fried rice when I ordered so I waited about five minutes while they made a fresh batch. read more

Bumbu Truck - The regular menu when the special - Food Trucks Near Me

This food truck has a lot of potential. The food is absolutely tasty. However, the customer service still needs work on. They have been at the Queen Anne Farmers Market on Thursdays so I've had the opportunity to try them more than once if I wanted to. The first time I tried, I wanted to place an order and the young lady/cashier simply laughed at me and told me they were out of a few items that were part of the meal. I completely understand how busy the market can get but I felt disrespected that she laughed at me and didn't even bother to say sorry. The following week, I decided to give it another shot. I successfully ordered a Rijsttafel plate and kindly asked how long the wait was. I saw several people waiting around the truck so figured it was worth asking. The young cashier (the one who chuckled at me a week prior) laughed once again and said it would take about a half hour. There were plenty of other people ahead of me who had received the same customer service as I did, and not once did she say sorry to anyone. Again, the food truck has great potential, but please work on the service! read more

Love this truck. The Nasi Goreng Sate is great and damn close to getting it in Indonesia. The Marta Martabak Telur is amazing too. I haven't had anything from this truck that wasn't good. Don't listen to the haters (ie Matt Low), do yourself a favor, and try this place out! read more

Visited the truck for the first time and was pretty excited to have indo street food. The food tasted strange and the chicken was off, it didn't taste like chicken. The food also seemed reheated and not fresh. I felt sick within 30 mins afterward and had stomach issues for the next couple days, I won't be returning to this truck. read more

They've consistently improved on every visit to the point where it's my weekly Friday food destination. This week the Satay was spectacular!

2.5 stars, but had to round up to 3. Pros: Food has pretty good authentic Indonesian style taste. Bonus: they accept American Express! Cons: I felt the picture menu was a dishonest and misleading. I ordered the #1 Combo for $9, and the picture of the combo had a fried egg in it. I personally love fried eggs, and was disappointed when my meal did not come with an egg. The cashier later told me it is an additional add-on cost. I searched throughout the menu to see if it was stated that the egg was not included, but could not find this fine print anywhere. Its almost like if I purchased a bicycle and it didn't come with wheels. As such, the good food left a bit of a sour taste in my mouth. To the owner of the truck: Retake your picture menu so none of the items have the fried egg on top, or explicit say the dish does not come with an egg, and it costs extra because at the moment the menu is misleading. read more
