Here's your edited Yelp review for Kopi Bar: Kopi Bar is a top contender for best coffee and bakery in downtown Walnut Creek. Their coffee is consistently good, and the baristas know how to make authentic drinks (my macchiato came with a water chaser, a true sign of expertise). The pastries are delicious and made in-house. The butter croissant is a must-try, although the flakiness can vary. The ambiance is clean, quiet, and offers high-top seating for coffee enjoyment. read more

This might be in the Top 5 Restaurants I love in Walnut Creek. We came here with my husband and kids to celebrate my birthday and wow! The ambiance, service, and food.. they were all amazing. Portion sizes are big enough to be shared and we absolutely loved every dish that we ordered. Very unique flavors, I never had them anywhere else before! Each dish is perfectly executed. Normally I would say which was my favorite but really, they all were amazing! For the drinks if you are at brunch, I recommend the avocado kopi, it was so different and delicious! The owner came out to to see how we are doing and she was super nice and so welcoming. Really added a nice touch. Can't wait to come here again! read more

Dessert time After dinner we decided to find a restaurant that looked like they had yummy dessert so we came here. The desserts are seasonal so they do swap it out through the season. We got: - passion fruit tart: So fresh and yummy! It was light and the flavors were so vibrant 5/5 stars - pandan mochi: No flavor. Just a mochi ball w coconut sprinkles... at least it was chewy and warm. I would definitely not get again 0.5/5 stars read more

Overall the food is delicious. Kopi avocado is amazing. Chili crab was quite salty. About service: while my husband and I are still eating, staff broom dust near us. The person who served our table was watching a game at Kopi bar, didn't check on us, letting us wait for about 20 minutes after we finished eating; didn't respect customers' time. Love the restaurant set up and decor! read more

We were super excited to try this new Indonesian restaurant and I even brought several friends because they all wanted to try Indonesian meal. But after tonight, I am super disappointed with their food and their service. 1. The server asked us if we want anything to drink. We told him just water for everyone since we still waiting for the other party to arrive. When the server came, he brought 2 bottles of water which he open and pour it into our glass. BUT then we realized the water bottle he gave us is not free! So I told the host that we didn't ask for these bottle water, we just wanted a regular filter water. But since the water bottle already open, we cant-refuse it and tell him to take it back. 2. We specifically select some entree from the non-spicy menu (Tahu Goreng) also known fried tofu for our daughter since she can't eat spicy food and when the the tofu arrived, it was SPICY !! and what's weird is that they use Rujak sauce all over the tofu?? ‍ 3. We ask the server for a regular steam rice and the server said they don't carry steam rice, instead she recommend another rice which is Nasi Uduk (rice with Coconut milk). I don't understand why they don't have no plain steam rice when a majority of Asian restaurants serve steam rice, especially when the meal they serve can be eaten with plain steam rice. 4. The Beef Rendang (Beef with special thick curry sauce) does not have any flavor at all! other than SPICY with NO Salt!! . The menu doesn't indicate no spicy and yet this entree came up SPICY!! 5. Ayam Percek (Grilled Chicken) the chicken )wasn't throughly cook! There was a bit pinkish on the chicken thigh meat and again it has a SPICY rub added with turmeric. All an all..of the 3 entrees we order tonight it was ALL SPICY ! And my poor daughter had to suffer eating her dinner because all the meals were all Spicy! I won't be coming back again to this restaurant and to be honest, I am embarrassed to even recommend this restaurant to my Indonesian & non-Indonesian friends! Because their food is terrible and I wasted over $130+ on my bill!! read more

One of my favorite restaurants in the area with a warm and inviting ambiance, delicious Indonesian food, and great cafe/bakery. They also host social events. Whether it's brunch with the gals, a solo breakfast, a new cuisine to introduce to visitors, SanDai is perfect for many occasions. When you make reservations, see if you can get a table in the Kopi room, but honestly the entire restaurant is adorable. read more

I was so excited to hear that there is an Indonesian spot closer to me, especially since there aren't a lot of them in the Bay Area. The food was so flavorful, but I have to give this spot a low rating due to the logistics of how my dining experience went. I came in at 7pm with no reservation for a party of 2 and luckily was able to be sat down at the high chairs. The server (who I believe is also the manager) was very friendly and was thorough in explaining what this spot has to offer. I ended up ordering the king oyster mushroom satay, beef rendang, nasi kuning, and klepon. I was also asked what I would like to drink and I assumed that the water would be complimentary. Despite the server offering various kinds of water, I thought it was all complimentary. To my surprise, two bottle refills of distilled water came out to $16 (I was so upset when I saw that on the bill AND the water wasn't even special). For the actual dishes I consumed, beef rendang was definitely spicy to the point I couldn't finish the dish and I do have a high tolerance to spice. It works well with the nasi kuning but even the rice couldn't tone down the flavors. For dessert, I got the klepon which was like a warm pandan mochi with maple inside. I really liked it! Now for the logistics of my dining experience, I didn't leave the restaurant til 9:15pm. That is more than 2 hours and I didn't expect to stay in there for so long. I waited longer than eating the food. Typically, appetizers come first. The person who was serving the dishes kept giving us the wrong orders. We were initially presented with shrimp satay skewers and then after that, our entrees came before the appetizer. Our designated server followed up with the status of our appetizer and turns out they gave it to the wrong table (totally fine) but then the server asked if we wanted to take back our entrees to get it remade again so all of the dishes could come out all at once. I wasn't sure what she meant by that but she took it back. I thought it was going to be quick but I totally regret doing that. Finally, about 30 minutes after ordering, we finally got the appetizer, but now, we waited even longer to get our entrees (which probably took another 15-30 minutes). By the time we finished our dishes, we were offered a dessert menu, and waiting to order took another 10-15 minutes. To get our dessert, it was a lot faster than what I experienced with the main dishes. I thought the downside of my dining experience was done, but I was wrong. At the time of payment, the bill we received reflected what we ordered. After our cards were charged, we were overcharged with 2 Klepons and 2 Beef Rendangs. We brought the attention to our server and this was fixed. However, it took maybe another 15 minutes to get all of that settled. While I am grateful to get a few items comped due what I experienced, I would not like to return for their dinner portion. I am more inclined to try their kopi bar and brunch menu instead. Hopefully, management can constantly improve so that no one has to experience what I did. read more

SanDai - seafood laksa goreng - Indonesian Near Me - Walnut Creek, California

Wow. I've been to Sandai few times now, but each time Chef Nora's food amazes me to a new level. Tonight's dinner was the most amazing one. The only regret is that I dined alone and only had one stomach so I had to choose my courses very carefully. What is the most impressive about Nora's cooking is that she is hyper-aware of her audience - her food's spice level is what I call "Walnut Creek medium" - some dishes are well balanced but not too aggressively spiced, and some will have extra kicks by her signature sauces but something else would offset that. She listens to her customer feedback, continuously refining her dishes. Don't expect her dishes you might be familiar with to taste the same, as she will put her spin on them. Don't expect what you are used to, spice level and ingredients. Show up, expect nothing but be amazed and surprised. In other words, be surprised how her ingredients create new flavor/taste you've never tasted. If you have to post your review by saying "I am from Singapore and..." Throw all of your pre-conceived expectations out the window. There are so much taste, texture and often playfulness that is like being on a roller coaster. I had: King oyster mushrooms with lemongrass coriander, cumin, peanut sambal, coconut rice cake, pineapple acar, 3 skewers. Peanut sambal. Always amazing and there's so much of it - this can be a meal of its own, if you order a bowl of rice (three options on the menu) with that. King oyster mushrooms are chewy/gummy in texture, so either you like that, or tolerate it (=in my case). Cumin goes so well - on my drive after my meal, I found that in between my teeth, as if Chef Norah says "hi! I hope you enjoyed your meal!" Next: Corn ribs with Sarawak white pepper, paprika, coriander, garlic, butter, cilantro, sambal aioli. This is her Indo-Mex dish. Fun to share, and flavor is explosive with a twang but the dipping sauce-aioli will tame that down. Again, I've never tasted this combination of flavors in my life! For my main course, I chose Soto Ayam, with turmeric coriander, chicken broth, potato bergedel (also known as Perkedel), egg noodles, fried shallots, cilantro and a lime to squeeze. Oh and Chef Nora's signature sambal kicap manis on the side. This. It's like a chicken ramen with curry flavor, but so much more. This is the rollercoaster I mentioned at the beginning of my review. I tried many combination of flavors - broth, lime juice, with or without the sambal punch (it's so good I took the leftover sambal to go, drizzled it to soft scramble eggs the next morning and it was magical.) I was not familiar with bergedel - fried mush potato fritter added deep umami to the broth which has the curry flavor that was just perfect. Each combination created new flavors, all ingredients working harmoniously and intriguing!!! Dessert: I was beyond stuffed but you cannot skip Chef Nora's desserts! I ordered "cheesecake apple pie: Granny Smith apple compote, cinnamon pecan streusel, vanilla sweet cream cheese, croissant bark, thyme. Wait. WHAT - "croissant bark??? This was not cheese cake nor apple pie. It was both. Again, everything in this dessert added super amazing flavors and texture. AND the croissant barks (never had them before)- so much crunch and fun!!! Oh I had to have Kopi Avocado to go with it. -The End- read more

SanDai is a wonderful modern Indonesian-Malay restaurant that serves contemporary SE Asian flavors at a pretty affordable price. My partner and I dined here on a Tuesday evening for a nice dinner and made reservations through OpenTable, which was easy since they have plenty of available slots. We're both Southeast Asian, so we were curious to see how the food fared, and if they toned down the flavors for the Walnut Creek's demographic...When we sat down we were one of two tables with Asian patrons. There are two options to dine from: the Kopi bar or the main restaurant. The kopi bar is where the cafe is located and has these huge windows; they draw down curtains when the sun sets. We didn't get a chance to look at the main restaurant but we enjoyed sitting there. Here's what we ordered: - BAKWAN ELOTE: Deep-fried corn fritter. This was a like a fusion Latin-Asian dish, and for $12 came with 3 well-sized fritters. Tasty appetizer. - AYAM PERCEK: This is a LOT of food: two grilled chicken legs, and a small bowl of sambal and salad. The chicken itself was fine but nothing to write home about. The sambal was fabulous: funky, umami and appropriately spicy. It reminded me of a Thai/Lao nam phrik and it went well with EVERYTHING. The salad on the side was crisp and refreshing and went well with all the dishes. - BEEF RENDANG: LOVE the portion size, it's a lot of beef. They cooked it till it falls apart, but the flavor felt lacking. I could taste a lot of acid, but it needed some more of that sharp umami funk that Southeast Asian food usually has. It tasted like it was toned down for the Walnut Creek palate. - NASI GORENG SALTED FISH: Salted fish fried rice. I loved the salty umami funk of this dish, and it went well with the fried egg. they also added chilies to it! Comfort food for me. We were celebrating a birthday, and they gave us a complimentary whole-ass mini CAKE. That was a nice touch. The cake tasted fine and was nothing to write home about, but the sheer size of it was charming. We had to take it to-go! Our total including tip was under $100, and we took home food to-go. We love how affordable it was for slightly upscale dining. Service was quick and efficient! read more

SanDai - I got so excited about the food that forgot to take a picture before we dug in - Indonesian Near Me - Walnut Creek, California

A restaurant and a coffee bar in one. We were there to try the restaurant, and it was kinda confusing where to order and how to get seated at first. You go to the coffee bar to order everything and get your number then they'll bring them to your table. Interior is very cute. I loved their pastries but the coconut latte was not my favorite, too acidic for my taste. Fried chicken was crispy but can use more seasoning. read more

SanDai is newly opened and located in the old Prima (Italian) space. However, the separate Prima wine shop still appears to be open. Gayle and I were here last Saturday night (maybe on their 3rd of 4th day of business) with friends after a really great performance of "English" at Berkeley Rep. We were seated in the back dining room with a ring side view of the kitchen. Before I move on to our meal, I note with interest a 2 Star review that commented: "In my honest opinion, I don't think any Indonesian or Malaysian who walks through your doors would enjoy this food". This reminds me of our daughter-in-law who was once a waitress at Angeline's Louisiana Kitchen in Berkeley. An interesting experience that she would have with visiting Cajuns was that one table would call their food crap, while the next would rave about the menu and that it was like mama used to make. My take away is what passes as "ethnic cuisine" (even among people raised on it) is not a uniform proposition and one should make one's own conclusions based on background and experience. Here's my take after our Saturday evening culinary experience: CONS 1. The Lasa Ravioli was well presented and tasty, but needed a little more portion/heft. 2. We had a relatively early reservation, and as the evening progressed the place completely filled up. As such, it got a little loud conversation-wise. Maybe that's the style these days, but maybe a little noise dampening adjustment might be in order. PROS 1. Nice seating (with a view), albeit a bit utilitarian. We enjoyed our space and the buzz around us, and we'll try the front inside room (by the windows) next time to compare. 2. Our wait person missed one of our selections, but otherwise our excellent service was friendly, attentive, and professional. It was certainly better than I would have expected for a new place in just opened mode. 3. Solid cocktails. Among us, we ordered 2 Kelapa Punches (with a cool single ice cube), 1 Bali 75, and a Spicy Mangga Margarita. Add a couple beers during the main meal, and we were happy campers. 4. Our other food items (Satay Beef Skewers, Ayam Percek (chicken), and 2 rice dishes (Nasi Ukuk and Nasi Kuning) were all flavorful and enough food for our group. I vaguely remember dining at Indonesian restaurants during business trips to Den Haag and this meal was different than that in terms of decor and menu. SanDai is more of a Cali-Indonesian fusion place and not a pure ethnic "hole in the wall" establishment that you'd expect from your local Chinese, Thai, Indian, or Burmese enterprise. That might partially explain the purist-related commentary above. At the same time, we found the menu intriguing/creative and probably a work in progress as SanDai finds its sea legs. We look forward to coming back and watching this place grow. read more

SanDai - Coffee: I had Kopi, a strong coffee with condensed milk. Coffee pairing: I had this sweet crispy pastry goodness. - Indonesian Near Me - Walnut Creek, California

Kopi Bar is the newest coffee shop to open in Downtown Walnut Creek! It's located across from 1515 Restaurant and next to the new Sandai Indonesian Restaurant that will open soon. I saw Kopi Bar on Instagram and immediately trekked over here today! It's an Indonesian fusion cafe with coffee and dessert influenced by the culture. I got the Avocado Coffee which has avocado, espresso, condensed milk and oat milk and it's insanely delicious!!! A Must! I also got the Pandan Custard which reminds me a lot of Filipino cassava. It also tasted great! The presentation of the coffee and dessert is so nice! It looks high-end! I love this place already and will be back soon! read more

Beautiful restaurant with attentive servers. Our waiter, Frankie I think his name was, was welcoming and congenial. The food is very unique to this area and worth a visit. Pandan rice - very flavorful on its own. it was recommended to pair with the beef rendeng, but the rendeng flavors drowned out the lighter flavors of the rice, so it was pretty much like eating plain rice. Salted fish fried rice - similar to regular fried rice but with bits of salted fish added, and topped with a perfectly fried egg. Even though it's a comparatively simple dish, it was my favorite as I found the flavors most satisfying. Gado Gado - a variety of fresh, lightly cooked, what I call "high end" veggies on a bed of wild rice with sauce. The sauce is labeled as a citrus vinaigrette on the menu but I recognize it as something else with lots of lemongrass from childhood. A beautifully presented dish. Ikan Pepes (whole fish) - in a coconut curry-like sauce. Flavor was fairly mild so was overwhelmed by the rendeng we also had, but the picked bits of veggies that topped the fish provided a refreshing contrast. Beef rendeng - very strong flavors. Reminds me of Vietnamese beef stew and fruity Chinese beef jerky, but more intense. I found it overly sweet but it was my husband's favorite. It overwhelmed a lot of the other dishes. Would have been better with something as simple as a small side of pickled onions and/or herbs for some freshness and acid to balance out the heaviness. Casava cake for dessert - pretty good, not overly sweet I loved different foods so was delighted to experience something completely new. The dishes here are good and seasoned intensely but fell just a bit flat for me, given the price. While I enjoyed everything, I was hoping to be wowed a bit more. The presentation did wow me but the overall flavors didn't. However, my husband rated this dining experience 5 stars so it comes down to personal preference. I do highly recommend giving Sandai a try, given the stellar service, ambience, and creativity. read more

Amazing set up for this restaurant. You walk in here and it's like another world (maybe I exaggerated that a little) Busy place knowing it just opened up. The wait on ordering your food is a bit long, with so many customers, that's understandable. The food is about pricey of course it's The Bay Area. Satays, starter they look good. We had stuffed chicken wings that was yummy. I had the grilled chicken that too was yummy. We abstained from alcohol tonight since had somewhere to go. The fish that the restaurant is famous for, is a no no, the fish was steamed raw, really strong fishy taste and smell. I told my husband not to eat it since it was done that way. We were really disappointed. We prolly won't come back.. read more

I'm from Singapore and have been searching for good South East Asian food in the Bay Area for the last 15 years. The flavor and taste of the dishes from this establishment is pretty damn close! We will be back with families and friends in the future! Food - we ordered Nasi Lemak, Nasi Goreng, Beef Rendang and Gado Gado and I had their Teh Halia (pulled milk tea with ginger). Everything was delicious. The beef Rendang is highly recommended and will go so well with the Nasi Goreng or plain basmati rice but they served it with toasted bread which was weird but whatever. Gado Gado was their 'farmer's market style' with fresh salad and is totally different from back home. It's a new twist and I love it! The fried chicken is great but if I have to be picky, the taste of the nasi lemak is off. Still good, but missing the mark. The sambal chili is sooo good. Eat it with everything!! Lol Ambiance - very chic and modern with hint of Asia with pieces of batik as framed art. I think that is a nice touch to keep with the Walnut Creek crowd. Service - our server was great and attentive. In fact everyone who served us are knowledgeable with their menu. Good job!! read more

We visited Walnut Creek on a Sunday early morning for an errand and decided to try this place out. I didn't realize that the Kopi Bar and SanDai were 2 separate establishments with different operating hours. They have different entrances but their establishments are connected on the inside. We thought we had to wait until 11 am to try their pastries. But it turns out that the Kopi Bar was open much earlier. Since we had waited until we thought they would open, we decided on a sit down service at SanDai. Here is what we ordered: - Kopi avocado - shiitake and gruyère snail - beef rendang hash I am a sucker for avocado shakes and was so intrigued by the Kopi avocado. I'm so happy I ordered it. It was the right amount of sweetness/creaminess and the espresso shot was so velvety smooth. I really want to try remaking this drink at home. As for my food order, everything I wanted to try was at the Kopi Bar so they let me order a pastry from there to eat at the table. I never thought of doing shiitake mushrooms in a croissant pastry. The lamination on the croissant was done so well and the filling was a flavor bomb. I enjoyed every bite of my croissant. My husband ordered the Beef Rendang Hash and it was also super flavorful! We only wished that it came with more sourdough bread slices. The restaurant is very beautiful and I feel it would be a great place to bring the family/friends for something celebratory. We weren't prepared to pay as much as we did for what we ordered on a random Sunday morning. But we would definitely come back to SanDai with their amazing staff and food for a special occasion. I'll be coming back even sooner to try more of their pastries at Kopi Bar. That pastry was amazing! read more

The taste however...is not authentic. The food has been toned down a lot...to cater to the westernized palate? Salted fish fried rice was so bland. Chili crab was just sweet, watery tamarind sauce...no chili taste. I wanted to like this place so much and I have waited for a special occasion to go and enjoy the food. I was disappointed.

We have been trying to find a good Singaporean place for the longest time in the Bay area. There is one in Menlo Park but it is quite far and not easy to get to. I remember passing by this place once while taking a walk at work and the manager passed me a menu and asked to keep it. It has sat in my drawer and reminded me of the restaurant a lot of times when I open my drawer up. It isn't open for lunch during the week and it is only open for brunch from Friday to Sunday and dinner from Wednesday to Sunday, so trying it out at lunch for work isn't going to work. (they do have the kopi (coffee) shop open then) We were in the area on Saturday and wanted to stop by. The food was fantastic and tasted like the authentic version of the dishes that represent. Moreover, it seems like the menu changes every month so there is something different to look forward to each time we come. The place was busy when we were there and having tried the food, we understand now. A great addition to Downtown Walnut Creek. read more
