Sarah WeinerJune 27, 2012Love the ayam kalio (spicy chicken curry) - I can't remember if I think this is spicy or medium... We'll find out! The mango smoothie is great - just mango and ice for all you lactose intolerants!
michael deveroApril 7, 2018Awesome food!! I had the Roti Paratha, #8 Nasi Bungkus and Nasi Goreng with chicken all super good. Nasi bungkus is a must. Very rich flavors and a lot of food for a good price
Delicious Indonesian food with a great little Asian grocery attached. Order the nasi bungkus for several different types of curry wrapped in a banana leaf.
Rachel RebeccaJune 10, 2017Service was friendly, patient, and helpful! I had the vegetable dish with chips, which was tasty and unique. The blended Indonesian drink was tasty and different.
Brandon TomyoyOctober 18, 2015Weekend brunch here is not only delicious, but one of the more affordable brunch options in West Los Angeles. Attached to an Indonesian specialty market and cafe.
LA WeeklyOctober 4, 2011"You can, though, get nasi bungkus across the street from the old Indo Cafe as was pointed out to me at length when I suggested that Indo Cafe's was the only version in town!" - Jonathan Gold- Nasi goreng with corned beef, nasi rames padang, nasi mantep, and the roti paratha are so good!
Kevork KazanjianOctober 27, 2014Nasi Bungkus is amazing, tell them #8 they'll know what you're talking about. Try their "smoothies" too I like the sour sup one.
Kelly BoneAugust 12, 2014The Ketoprak "Salad" is hardly a salad... But it's a delicious vegetarian/vegan option!
Connie ChiuSeptember 12, 2016Mix up that nasi bungkus with their peanut satay sauce. So deng good. The chicken satay is pretty tasty tasty.
Spencer SchoebenMarch 30, 2019i’ve never had food poisoning so quickly after eating a meal. oh my. it was delicious though. now it’s in the toilet.
A taste of the motherland. All-Star meal to share for two: ikan bakar, kangkung, and nasi mantep. You won't regret it.
Roti paratha (delish bread), mie tek tek (street style noodles), and fried rice are my picks. The ayam kalio (chicken curry) isnt bad either.
Miss AfaJuly 24, 2010I don't know what to do with Simpang Asia! I cook a lot, and this is where I can find most of the ingredients, herbs & spices from my country! Visit this place n try also their meals.. Yummy!
Linda C.January 29, 2018Avoid the Pepes Ikan (Steamed Spicy Fish). The fish was not cleaned and still had scales and all the internal organs including the gills. The milk fish also seemed very old.
Jennifer YipJuly 10, 2016Roti is a must get. Skip the Laksa (not too flavorful). Smoothies are great!!
indonesian market and restaurant all in one. one of my fav spot to hangout. great food, great people, great everything! try their "roti bakar" and "pisang bakar"..yumm!!! :)- Sarah WeinerJune 27, 2012Love the ayam kalio (spicy chicken curry) - I can't remember if I think this is spicy or medium...

- Nasi bungkus (pictured) is tasty but not as good as nasi mantep in my opinion!
Greta AndersonApril 21, 2011Your Foursquare check in gets you a free drink! Try the Fruit Smoothie- the Melon was refreshing & tasty!
The grocery section has a lot of imported goodies. The stroopwafels were a pleasant surprise.
Maaham AzizSeptember 1, 2014Nasi bungkus was not disappointing, nasi mantep not as spicy as expected and a little dry. Roti prata is not a miss however!
Winnie KhooNovember 16, 2014Faves: Nasi Bungkus, Yellow rice, Roti Paratha, Lontong Cap Go Meh (sub rice)
Love both sides: the cafe and market. This is where I stock up on nasi goreng paste.
You can't go wrong with Mie Tek Tek noodles. I also recommend trying the Melon Juice. One of the most refreshing drinks I've ever had.
Where I stock up on Indonesian groceries when I'm feeling a bit homesick, buy a box of Teh Kotak jasmine tea, and eat nasi bungkus. They've recently renovated! :)
Catherine AzaliJuly 30, 2012They have everything that are made of Indonesian food that you want. 2-in-1 together Grocery store/restaurant is nice.
Garick ChanFebruary 21, 2010Not bad. If you like this place, you might also try Singapore Express on Lincoln in Marina Del Rey as Malay cuisine is very similar to Indonesian.
Sophie LaurentOctober 6, 2011I always get the Sayur Bungkus for a vegetarian option of the Nasi Bungkus.
They dont always honor the loyalty special so be careful who you ask. If they do honor it they limit what you can get. Just a heads up.
