The salmon stuffed calamari was amazing, chicken satay very good, grilled jimbaran fish was very tender, kangkung very tasty, bbq beef sticky ribs was super good according to my son and I would agree.

Although there was a long line outside the door, we were seated pretty quickly. The ordering method…read morewas very efficient but it took a while for waiters to respond to the push button. One time we pushed it hoping to have someone take a picture of the group for us by no one ever came. We ordered the #R08: biriyani with fried chicken, eggplants and prawns, #R17: the biriyani with beef rendang and prawns, #DS07: Pappa signature quails and 3 drinks...mango mania, watermelon juice & milk chai. Our food arrived quickly and the portions were big. For us the foods were little on the dry side, but tasty. The juices were very fresh (tasted just like the fruits they were said to be) & went well with th. They and was very refreshing.

This restaurant has good service and food to my liking. As an Chinese-Indonesian myself I can…read moreapprove that the staff are kind and attentive. The food is authentic and delicious. I enjoyed the nasi goreng and mie goreng which is cooked in a style I personally enjoy. Service is generally well. To improve on this occasion expansion of the menu would bring additional flare to this restaurant. Adding more meals could be the next step in bringing this restaurant to a high class dining service. Maybe the arrangement can be done more neatly before opening as I have had to improvise to afford large table. In general lovely food and lovely service. I feel like new additions will make it better.

I was craving for something Indonesian/ Malaysian/ Singaporean and that's how I ended up here. I…read moregot here before the lunch crowd did so, I had the place to myself...but not for long. You order your food and pay at the counter. They give you a number. You find a table and wait for your food. They have so many good options to choose from. I was so torn. I wanted sambal, nasi Goreng, mee goreng, roti, laksa...pretty much everything on the menu. But I had to calm myself down, clear my thoughts and focus on getting 2 entrees, kaya toast and teh. Sambal Fried Fish: Different chilies + deep-fried fish = amazing! Pass me the rice! 4/5 Singaporean Laksa: They have different varieties of laksa. I picked this since it has everything in it: tofu, fish, chicken, hard-boiled eggs, noodles in a coconut curry broth. 4.5/5 Kaya Toast: Basically, butter + sugar on toast. This reminds me of what my nanny would make for my afternoon snack when I was little. This is what made them famous (their tea and coffee are good too). 4/5 Teh: Hot or iced. White, black or green. With or without condensed milk. I got mine iced, black with condensed milk. 5/5 They have lots of dishes, drinks and desserts I remember having as a kid living in SouthEast Asia. Milo, longan, durian, lychee, mango sago, etc. I would have ordered more but I realized I had Canadian dollars left in my wallet instead of AUD. Mother of all failures!

Came here with partner and auntie. We ordered a signature vermi, chili crab and kung po chicken…read more The vermicelli was a single portion and spread pretty thinly for three people. The kung po chicken barely had any flavour (despite having dried chili) and was less than a portion. The chili crab2 (2) had a really nice sauce, though no taste of chili - but were $45 for the dish. This last was the best of the three. My partner mad to order more food, though, so went for a set meal for himself: Singapore laksa, grass jelly drink, and durian pancakes. The laksa was apparently good, but the durian filling of the pancakes appeared to be a flavoured cream filling.

Great to see this childhood favourite, award winning Indonesian franchise expanding in Melbourne,…read moreas it has been a while. All the traditional "Jakarta" style fast food; Bakso, Batagor, Nasi Goreng, etc. and their award winning "Es Teler" and you don't have to be Indonesian to enjoy their offering. Great simple natural interior, rather than the usual bright livery, great fast service too. One thing that I would like to suggest to the management, please tone down the sweetness level on your drinks, too sweet and it has nothing to do with my age or diabetic ... LOL. Well done and thank you for saving me a lot of hours and money to enjoy my childhood memory, 20 minutes down the Eastern Freeway, instead of flight to Jakarta.
