This came with fried wontons, fried tempeh and meatball skewer. The fried wontons were crispy and had a shrimp and herb stuffing, went well with the sweet and spicy chili sauce. Fried tempeh had batter on it, little pieces of cilantro (or some green) in batter. This went well with the sweet and spicy chili sauce. The meatball skewers had a sweet soy glaze on it, nothing too special but reminded me of an asian meatball with a sight chew/bounce to it. Overall, this was a good snack to have.

The chicken rice ball is just like the ones I used to get at an Indonesian restaurant in Hong Kong where I used to get desserts and snacks bites. The beef rendang came with rice and some veggies. All three items complemented each other well, and made a great overall dish. I overheard some people congratulating the lady at the counter for opening that location. It sounds like she already had a successful business elsewhere and this is an expansion. If you are at Public Market, it's definitely worth giving the place a try.

Super awesome. The kitchen is wide open. Everything was super clean and well put together. Service - 5/5 Great recommendations from the staff. The house slaw and banana pudding were clearly popular choices, and they definitely knew what they were doing when guiding the order. I told them it's my first time. These were what they recommended me. One of the staff actually gave a piece of brisket to try. Very nice of them to give a free sample before I order so I know what I'm expecting. Food - 4.5/5 Dish Ordered: Dino Rib, Brisket ( 1/2 lb), House Slaw, Banana Pudding 5/5 Dino Rib Wow. This was the highlight. The meat was unbelievably tender--every single part of it. Usually with ribs, especially the upper portions, you get some toughness or dryness depending on how it's smoked. Not here. This one was melt-in-your-mouth soft, juicy throughout, and you could practically pull it apart effortlessly. The seasoning was perfect--balanced, not too salty, not bland, just right. Every bite hit. 4/5 Brisket ( 1/2 lb) About two slices. Visually, it looked great--nice color, juicy, with a solid fatty portion. But after eating the Dino rib, it felt a bit underwhelming. Still good, just didn't hit as hard flavor-wise. Might be better appreciated on its own next time. 5/5 House Slaw This paired extremely well with the meat. Sweet, tangy, and refreshing. The hint of peanuts adds a nice nutty layer that makes it stand out. It cuts through the richness of the meat perfectly. 5/5 Banana Pudding Not your typical pudding--it's more like a banana cake. The sweetness not too overwhelming, smells amazing, and just hits the spot. A great way to finish the meal. Additional Comments The Dino rib alone makes this place worth it. It sets a very high bar, which honestly makes everything else feel secondary. The best Rib I have ever had in my life so far. Important thing to note is that the rib will be weighed. I don't think you can ask to get the portion you want like you can with the brisket. My Dino rib came out to be 1.6lb. The sides and dessert complement the meal really well and round out the experience. Price is bit is definitely in the higher end but the experience is definitely worth it.

My husband wanted to order food from here to take home for his birthday. We came on a Wednesday a little after 4:30 PM and there were less than 5 people in line. It went quick but we can see how there can be a line on weekends since there's only one person cutting meat in the back. The food is phenomenal though and worth the wait (again coming from someone who doesn't eat a lot of bbq or meat). The sides are my favorite. They are so good. We got every single one :). I loved the brisket and the mustard sauce. And we got the dessert drink which was tasty for someone who has a big sweet tooth. Overall, it's fantastic and next to a brewery. There's a small parking lot near by. Would definitely come again!!!

Lucky for us, eater published an article of best places to get crab and I found a familiar chef offering her Indonesian Crab feast. I used to attend Chef Siska's pop-ups back in the day and she's one of the only people offering Indonesian cuisine in the Bay Area. Most people are familiar with Singaporean or Malaysian Chili crab but chef Siska offers a great Indonesian Crab with Padang Sauce. The crab was really fresh and I thoroughly enjoyed this crab feast. The sides were crab cornbread, crab Rangoon and crab salad. These were probably the best crab Rangoons I've had and the crab cornbread blew my mind - it's the kind of fusion that was unexpected but was fantastic. Chef Siska is definitely one of my favorites and I'm looking forward to getting some rice plates from her after crab season (she's concentrating on crab orders in January/February). She's the type of chef that deserves the support from our Bay Area foodie community. Highly recommended!!!

Curry Leaves Bistro: 2025 December (5 of 5)…read more The holidays mean attending parties or hosting one. I was recently invited to a neighbourhood holiday party where each neighbour brings a dish - like a potluck. I decided to bring Curry Puffs. The curry puffs were a hit - they were gone in seconds, a testimonial to the deliciousness of these treats made by Curry Leaves Bistro. The host even placed the curry puffs the star and centre of the photo he sent to the neighbours. Source: Malaysian curry puffs are widely available at street food stalls, bakeries, and markets and are enjoyed as a breakfast item, an afternoon tea snack, or a late-night treat. Locally known as karipap, it is a popular, savory, half-moon-shaped pastry snack with a flaky, crispy crust and a thick, spiced filling. They are deep-fried until golden brown, resulting in a crispy exterior. When eaten hot, the curry puff provides a satisfying contrast between the golden, flaky, and crispy exterior and the soft, warm, savory, and mildly spicy interior.

It was bittersweet -- the wonderful homey lunch experience, but knowing it would be the last at this location. So now we wait for the reopening at another spot, hopefully nearby. And live on with the memories of amazing dining experiences here. A big and hearty thank you to Chef Jai, Vicky, and their entire staff especially Rasul. We'll see you again in a few months!
