We're visiting Houston from Maryland and discovered what we believe is the best authentic…read moreIndonesian food in the area: WARUNG INDONESIA in Sugar Land, Texas! Owned by a very nice couple, Robin and Ida, this restaurant truly impressed us. The three of us ordered Soto Ayam, Empek-Empek Kapal Selam, and Ayam Penyet. Every dish tasted just like the authentic Indonesian food you would find in Indonesia! We've tried many Indonesian restaurants in several other states whenever we travels, but so far, none has come close to Warung Indonesia. Honestly, we've been disappointed by many Indonesian restaurants we've visited, but this place is a wonderful exception! The restaurant is clean and comfortable, with a good, modest size. We arrived about 40 minutes before closing time, yet the owners never made us feel rushed. We truly appreciated their warm hospitality. If you're unfamiliar with Indonesian cuisine, you don't need to fly all the way to Indonesia to experience its wonderful flavors. Just visit Warung Indonesia if you're in the Houston area! Although there are other restaurants around Houston that serve Indonesian dishes, what makes Warung Indonesia stand out is its dedication to Indonesian cuisine, rather than mixing it with Japanese or Chinese dishes. Highly recommended! If you're craving authentic Indonesian food in the Houston area, Warung Indonesia is a must-visit!!!

Slow but Decent * My…read moreparty of 4 waited nearly 45 minutes, had to cancel most of the orders and swap to go orders to make it to an event. Family friendly restaurant, but slow. * two staff in the back, one in the front. Extremely kind and helpful for helping us change our orders and explain where the food was! We were disappointed that after 30 minutes of waiting they hadn't even started on the combination fried rice. It seemed they waited until batches of orders were put in to start. We got a Gado Gado, and so did the table who came in and ordered 10 min after us. They were ready at the same time. * ended up trying the Nasi Campur (no pics sorry ) and a half portion was filling. Rendang was soft and flavorful, tempeh goreng was a comfy kind of spice. Sayur Lodeh (veggie soup) balanced out the heat but was a bit too salty for my taste * would like to try again, perhaps not on a weekend

First of all, the waitress that took our order had us tell her what the menu item number was for each of our orders. Which was fine, except she didn't seem to understand one of the numbers. Her English seemed limited - not the end of the world. When I physically looked at the tablet, I corrected what almost became a mistake, and then she proceeded to walk off without taking our menus. All the prices have increased since the last time I came, which is not abnormal, but something to keep in mind. The food itself was fine. We ordered curry chicken laksa, a mee goreng, and a roti canai. The laksa was good, but my colleague mentioned her mee goreng had very little protein in it. So when it came time to pay, our waitress just brought the tablet and asked if we were paying together or separate. I proceeded to take out my credit card, and given this is yet another Chowbus establishment, the POS system started gratuity at 18%. There was nothing about our service that garnered 18%. I don't even recall our waters getting refilled. I didn't want to bother pressing the custom button to have to do mental math while the server waited so I begrudgingly selected the 18%. And I already know Chowbus calculates tip AFTER tax, which is another annoyance. Here's the kicker. After I received my receipt via text, I then realized there was a 3% credit card fee. At no point did our server mention this. And as I was going over the receipt, I also found out that the credit card fee was calculated based on the subtotal, tip and tax. This setup felt very predatory and not transparent. Their math and the lack of effective communication has ensured I will not be returning. A little honesty would go a long way.

I was driving around craving something light and affordable for dinner and figured let me try them out. The menu had an array of options and they were all reasonably priced but I decided I'll just get the chicken satay as I didn't need anything too heavy.

I think it could've used just a tad bit more salt but overall it wasn't bad all. I'll definitely come back to try other options on the menu.

It's a consistently delicious choice that satisfies my cravings every time. If you're in the mood for classic Chinese comfort food, Raki is the place to visit.

I will be quite honest with you that I really have no experience with Malaysian food. In point of…read morefact, I've bypass this restaurant numerous times simply assuming that it was Chinese. It is anything but in point of fact, it is in my estimation, a unique culinary experience. I don't write from the perspective of comparing this food to other Malaysian dishes that I've had in point of fact to the best of my recollection I don't think that I've ever had Malaysian cuisine. But if this restaurant is an example, I have missed a great deal. The food is very unique the servings are very gracious charitable. The prices are incredibly reasonable given the distinction of this particular cuisine and given the portions and quality of food that is served. The service is quite simple and the restaurant is actually quite small. However, I must tell you from A service perspective. It's truthfully amazing because the takeout business is extremely active. Not to mention the fact that the chef walks out and speaks to people will share anything that you want to know about Malaysian food and obviously from the quality of the food that I ate not only is his explanation thorough but my guess is his skills are incredible. As I said it is very small so it's difficult to Alpine about the ambience other than it was quite clean and given the number of whom I suspect were Malaysian people it's obviously quite popular within that community. So I take that to be a sign that this food is quite native in nature. I had a pork meal, which is only on Sundays. I spoke to the chef about it, and he explained that the preparation started one day in advance of actually serving the meal, so I understand why it is only served once a week. Although I must tell you because I lack familiarity it seemed to me that I would be hours and hours trying to replicate any of the dishes. All I can tell you is this if you are in an exploratory mood for a cuisine and have had or have not had Malaysian before I suspect this is a place to go. Quite informal, extremely fair pricing very generous portions great service very pleasant people and frankly it's a a family affair of what you will see many when you go. Quite a lovely experience.

Food - 4/5 Service - 4/5…read moreAmbiance - 4/5 Overall - 4/5 Within this busy shopping center lies this small Malaysian restaurant. Parking here will forever and always be terrible, but besides that, this place was almost entirely empty, especially for a weekend lunch (we did come almost right at opening time, but there were only like a few other customers by the time we finished). I think the main issue with this restaurant is the menu. With a wide variety of options with different cuisines, I felt that the quality of dishes was lower than I wanted. That aside, I absolutely loved the roti canai, with it being almost perfectly crispy, buttery, and tasty. The fried rice was really flavorful with the salted fish, almost verging on too strong. The curry noodle soup we got was not very strong and was a little bit disappointing. The beef tripe was so incredibly tasty, though the spice was a little bit much for my family. The beef dry hot pot was nice, though I only really liked the beef and not much else on it (some of it was bitter, other parts were just too salty). I don't think this place is terrible. We did come as one of, if not the first, customers in the restaurant, so everything was made fresh and was hot as we ate it. I just think was so much competition surrounding it in this busy shopping center, I don't think it accomplishes enough to be a go-to place for my family.

The green beans were flavorless, the sizzling pepper chicken was not spicy (we requested spicy) and no pepper, and the beef rendang was really oily.

I've been to many other restaurants where this has never been an issue, so I was surprised by how this situation was handled. What made it worse was the way one of the staff members approached us. He was extremely rude and told us to leave instead of trying to speak with us respectfully or find a solution. I understand that restaurants may have their own policies, but there is a respectful and professional way to communicate them to customers. Unfortunately, that was not the case here.
