They have many affordable Indonesian dishes. The place is small but there are tables you can eat inside.

A bit hard to find, but I adore the food and owners. They are dedicated to their craft, and you taste it in every grain of yellow rice to every drop of oil from their meaty, juicy chicken. I walked here during a blizzard one year for my birthday and my god was it worth it. Their lunch special lets you choose a plate buffer style and it comes out to like $15-$17, so a bit pricey, but it's the best Indonesian food you'll get around Philly. They also do catering and were lovely, I ordered an entire tub of chicken, egg curry, yellow rice, and greens, and pretty much everything was gone by the end of the night.

Good, hearty comfort food. Choose from a number of dishes over your choice of rice. I'm not sure how they calculate the cost of your order but it seems to be related to what your dish is and how many different things you get.

This is my second time coming here and the rice was better than the first time. The first time I dined in, my rice was overcook- i mean cmon... but I gave this est. another chance and today they did not disappoint. IMO, if you do a take out it can be more expensive than dining in. For example- if you do a take out on Telor Balado (the marinated egg) it will cost you $1 each. I mean good lord...nevertheless, if you have the money to splurge then by all means. This place is a neighborhood joint where if you dont feel like cooking and need a quick grab.

Wonderful little hole in the wall filled with delicious indonesian & Sumatran food. Best goat curry I've ever had. Rendang was on point. Lovely counter person who handed me the remote when I asked to change the channel. Very reasonable prices. Good portions. A+

The place is cute but they charged me overprice for rice, kale, a piece of beef, an egg and a tofu while egg and tofu in the same dish for $12. This is my first time but I wouldn't recommend it. The other indonesia place on 11th st charged only $8 for the same meal.

Authentic and tasty. I had nasi kuning (yellow rice) with several side dishes (rendang, sayir lodeh, sambal goreng telor). The sambal (spicy relish) had the right level of spiciness. From the outside it is hard to tell it is here but it is worth it!

This reminds me of Indonesia, this is Indonesia in Philadelphia. I know a lot of people say Hardena is better but I think it's been overrated now. The price is very reasonable and they have nasi kuning(yellow rice)! I could only think of one other restaurant that sells nasi kuning, which is D'jakarta Cafe. The rendang and grilled chicken here are soooo good!!! The rendang is spicier than Hardena but that's what makes it even better!!! This restaurant is always full of other Indonesians, and we keep it down low so it won't become overrated like Hardena. But I do have to agree that there are certain dishes I prefer to get from Hardena than here. But this is my favorite Indonesian restaurant!

Was a bit skeptical when I 1st got here. Strange looking whole fried fish staring at me. Things in steam tables w/bones and skeletons sticking out. The woman was trying her best to help me, but there is a definite language barrier here.I decided to go vegetarian; as earlier reviews said meats were chewy. Tempeh, for protein, was a winner; rich & flavorful. Not oily. The braised greens (collards?) had a nice taste & texture & she put them in a baggie so they didn't spill into everything.So did the Japanese eggplant(she didn't know the name),which was sweet and cut into nice bias ovals and cooked al dente. Everything had a bit of heat and was served over excellent yellow rice topped w/fried shallots. The woman smiled when I asked for red sambal ( they also have green). It was amazing; easily the best sambal I've tasted. The heat was not overwhelming, and the flavor was intensely rich, savory, and a tad sweet.I also like that they put it in a side container;Platter cost me $6.50. Would like to add this to my Indonesian repertoire;wish I spoke the language.

Tiny steam table place. Vegan options available. Got some tofu and greens over yellow rice with red sambal, all was very good. Friendly service, too.
