Authentic Indonesian cuisine has finally come to the New Orleans area! I grew up in Jakarta, and my parents were there for 13 years. We all agree this is wonderfully delicious, incredibly authentic, and brought back a world of memories through tastes and smells. Highly recommend ten times over.

Absolutely delicious and the staff are very nice. We got roti canai, nasi uduk, rendang sapi, and es cendol. Everything was amazing. I started planning what I want next time we go, before we even left.

It was AWESOME! There was only one server and one person in the kitchen on a busy Friday night, but they worked SO HARD and you wouldn’t even notice they were understaffed. Our server answered all the questions we had about the menu and made some great tasting suggestions. Food was large portions and delicious. Definitely coming back again.

The restaurant is very cozy and the hostess was very nice and accommodating. I ordered the rice and coconut flakes fried chicken, unfortunately it had the taste of a chicken that they found out back fried it up and tossed on some flakes. It had no seasoning or flavor. My spouse had the butter chicken which tasted exactly like a orange chicken lean cuisine. The meals were over sixty dollars, and was not worth it. Maybe the other items on the menu are better, but I’ll never know it.

Went here for takeout and while i waited was given tea to drink on the house. Owners are very welcoming and friendly. I ordered the ribs, butter chicken and chicken satay. Portions were big and so delicious! Unique flavors you won’t find anywhere else for those wanting to try new cuisines. Ribs were falling off the bone. Small cosy family restaurant with Big flavor. Will definitely be going back. Highly recommend
