The food was so good, I had to order another plate of rice with sambal. I’m considering taking a day trip everyday from UK to Paris everyday just for the food.
3 stars at best. Small portion. Ayam bakar was good, but nasi kuning was tasteless, with a bunch of really small condiments. And why put carrot/mayo for ayam bakar's side dish? why not tahu/tempe? Sambal was just OK not as good as authentic Indonesian sambal. Gado gado for €10 was really small and not worth it to buy too. just a bunch of cheap veggies and re-used satay sauce, not even a boiled egg. Disappointed.
An authentic Indonesian restaurant in Paris. We visited twice in just two days because the food was that good. Their Bakwan was super crispy and delicious. On our first visit, we ordered the Bakso Special and honestly, the soup was heavenly. The broth was clear but rich with beef flavor. The meatballs were perfectly chewy, meaty, and satisfying. They also added tetelan/tulang with a bit of meat, which made the bakso feel extra special and authentic. What I really liked was the complete condiments available: tomato sauce, sambal, sweet soy sauce, and vinegar. It truly gave the vibe of eating bakso back in Indonesia. On the second day, my friend ordered the Gado-Gado. The peanut sauce was incredibly tasty. The grilled chicken was tender and well-seasoned, and the sambal had a proper spicy kick. They also have a toilet in the corner of the restaurant. Its small, but clean, complete, and smells nice. The staff were friendly and welcoming, and card payment is available too. Highly recommended for anyone craving authentic Indonesian food in Paris!
The food was great and the staff were kind. I love the dessert crepe in pandan , super good. And the menu was good too. During the lunch it was full , i think better get an reservation.
A true taste of Indonesia! My wife dragged me across town in the rain… I was not pleased until we stepped inside this little restaurant and were immediately welcomed to Indonesia! The menu has all of the right choices, including many vegetarian options. The young ladies on staff were more than helpful in explaining each dish in Bahasa, French or even English! The iced tea was a real treat, as was the each dish: eggplant, tempeh, etc. the sambal brought it all home! If you want to enjoy some homemade Indonesian food, this is THE place!
Honestly the best authentic Indonesian food in Europe. Big bakso portion, authentic Jakartan noodle, super delicious cendol. Must try in Paris. Make sure to reserve table in advance.
Makan Makan was such a pleasant experience! We had a reservation and the owners sat us right away. As an Indonesian, I can say the food tastes like home. The sambal is pretty spicy—no holding back in my opinion. There’s no wrong thing to order here. It’s all good, and it comes out fairly quickly. The people in here are so friendly and I would recommend having a reservation. Mantep sekali.
So delicious. Truly authentic Indonesian cuisine. Seasoning and style of cooking was true to each and every dish we had. The ayam bakar was sublime (smoky meat that was just fall off the bone tender) and the tumeric rice is also a must try. However, the one thing that stole the show was the sambal. Fiery, fragrant and delightfully spicy. Having lived in Europe for some time, this sambal is the only thing I have tasted all these years that really reminded me of the rich flavours that can be found in food from South East Asia. I am sure they have put their heart into their dishes because all I can say is that the food is truly soulful and incredible. Anyone who is looking for real Indonesian food, this is as glorious as it gets!
