A must order is the GadoGado with the rice cake and if you are a chilli lover then spicy is a must:. If heat isn't your thing then make sure to let the staff know not to add any chilli.. A good tip is to phone ahead and pre-order your GadoGado - as each dish is hand made fresh to order and due to the complicity of the dish can take about 20mins-ish to make! Their Nasi-Goreng is amazing also! It comes with a piece of chicken or meat on the side! And is sure to be a crowd pleaser! Make sure to buy some of their "Maicih"Indonesian specialty chips too!!

I chose a fish dish, which came with two or three large pieces of fish, fried without a coating. I asked for the least spicy sauce, but it was still way too spicy for my tastes! It came with a huge portion of sticky rice. I love that kind of rice, but am unable to eat much due to carbs. My husband got a combo plate that had a nice variety of meat around the huge mound of rice in the middle. His came with a very spicy sauce too, but the main curry sauce was nice and mild. The restaurant itself is small and old. The workers were very busy, but also pleasant and friendly. It was a new, fun experience for us.

I wanted to bring my fiancé to taste more authentic Indonesian food. We got a lot of dishes to try. Our favorites are Pempek, Bakso, Mie Ayam Jamur, and Es Campur with Durian. The Pempek tastes really good. The fish cake, sauce, cucumber, and everything else remind me of how it tastes when I had it in Indonesia. Bakso comes with vermicelli and pangsit goreng. Too bad there's no Indonesian sweet soy sauce and chili condiments. They will compliment very well if mixed with the broth. The beef meatballs and pangsit goreng are good. Mie Ayam Jamur is good all around. Siomay Bandung is disappointing. Don't order this! The siomay itself is very bland. It tastes like an over-steamed bland tofu with a glob of filling in it. The only flavor we could taste was the peanut sauce. Last but not least is the Es Campur with Durian. Good amount of durian on the top and variations of jelly and nata de coco at the bottom. Great dessert. Give this place a try, but don't sit near the wall because a lady at the next table saw a small roach on the wall seat and freaked out. I sat on the wall seat too, so I quickly grabbed a piece of tissue and killed it with no hesitation. Don't know why I did that. Usually I am the one who is scared of bugs lol

Once we were seated, the staff came by often to check if we were ready to order. Maybe if I was a regular, I would be fast, but as a first time visitor, I was overwhelmed with the choices. We eventually tried two things, but we were so rushed, I forgot to note what I ordered. All I remember was that I wasn't that impressed. I remember the chicken was OK, but the noodle dish didn't seem freshly made, and the beef was dried out. It was a somewhat disappointing experience. Service was a bit rude and very rushed, and food was bad enough that I didn't want to finish it

From my experience this was more like 2.5 stars. I really wanted to like this place, but here are…read morethe details. I went with my husband and my adult; they both got dried noodles with beef rendang, and I got nasi bungkus (pretty much assortment of rice, small sides, and beef rendang on a banana leaf. My husband and my daughter received their food fairly fast. I told them to go ahead and eat bc I figured mine would come out soon. After 10 min, 20 min, and 30 min passed I was about to go up and cancel my order. The place was busy, but not crowded, and the employees were just kind of running around. I was looking around and I saw few tables where just 1 or 2 people were eating. Initially I assumed maybe those people eating were there to eat, and non eating people just accompanies them. WRONG! At least 3 other tables were waiting for their food for as long as us. Close to 40 min later my food came out and the server just looked embarrassed and said in a soft voice I am sorry. I don't know what was going on in the kitchen, but the it really left a bad impression. The food was good, I do have to say, but I won't be back.

Walking through Sussex St in Sydney Australia and found this Indonesian restaurant. It was a…read moresimple place inside a building and very casual ambiance. The moment we entered there was a big menu stand to read , price and description of the menu. Then we fall in line to order. The dishes were pretty decent but too spicy for us. We don't tolerate spicy food and unfortunately the server didn't asked if we want it spicy or not. Anyway it was good experience to try different dishes from another county. We ordered : Gadogado salad with peanut sauce. It has a lot of rice cake rather than fresh veggies Seafood noodle with gravy was really good Chicken with coconut soup was very spicy . The complete protein was ok. See the menu I posted . Overall it was ok. Probably not used to spicy food but for spicy liver I bet this is an excellent dish. Advice pick up your own bottle of water , glasses and silverware's. Wait for your dish to be served. Thank you

Don't be shy as you may end up sharing a table with others. When we arrived we were at the start of a rush as the line developed behind us with an already full restaurant. Luckily we managed a spot sharing with a family of 5. We ordered their Char Kuay Teow and Ais Batu Kacang. And the family ordered Hainan Chicken Rice and Fish Head Curry. Smells really good. There was an interesting mix of customers from Thai, to Malaysian, to Indonesian. Mixed in with the a couple of locals. It took a while for our food to be served. So it left me thinking that he forgot our order... Finally it came! The Char Kuay Teow was pretty good - KL style. Slightly spicy but oddly with chicken, no Chinese sausage or clams. Regardless, it was tasty. It took a while for the drinks to come out as well. As the kitchen is pretty small. So be patient!

The pictures and reviews looked good, so I decided to check it out. You can go straight to the counter and place your order. You have the option of eating in or taking it to-go. I ordered the Nasi Lemak. As advertised on their menu, it's their signature dish. This is Malaysia's national dish, it's a fragrant coconut rice dish served with peanuts, crispy anchovies and pickled vegetables. I got it with beef rendang. Instead of beef, you have the option to get it with chicken curry. I never had Malaysian food before, but this breakfast dish was very similar to what Taiwanese eat. I thought it was not bad. I'm pretty sure it's good for Sydney and you would most definitely get something better at Malaysia. If you're eating in, once you're done, you can bring your plates and utensils to the counter.

Answer - you round up the troops and head down to Harris Street, Ultimo! Just a warning - I think it's best to take notice of the name of the Cafe and stick to ordering just "Martabark" Martabark is like a spongey, dense pancake served like a sandwich (top layer/filling/bottom layer) - served with various fillings ---- chocolate, cheese, durian, peanuts or savoury fillings.. We ordered the chocolate and peanut Martabark for my son - in Bali last year he would eat a whole one by himself, everyday! Needless to say he was in HEAVEN! This yummy treat is really something to rave on about - you must try it before you die ;) We then ordered a range of other dishes such as "Gado-Gado"* Nasi Campur Ayam * Nasi-Goreng * Martabark Telore * Satay Ayam * Durian Juice and Ice Cendol.. The savoury dishes were such a huge let down.. I wouldn't recommend eating here for anything other than the Martabark.. I felt sorry for my father-in-law as he was so excited about tasting authentic dishes.. He had a sad face when we left.. :( It's such a shame as there is another great Indonesian restaurant literally 5mins walk around the corner (however they do not do Martabark) The restaurant decor was brand new and clean. The staff were okay too.. Overall this place is really the only restaurant in Sydney (that I know of) who exclusively make Martabark on the spot! So - many props to them for that! Their Martabark is divine! #yum
