Amazing food, quality service, all at the right price. My first time trying Indonesian food and I wasn’t sure I was going to like it, but to my amusement it was spot on. We ordered several dishes and every single one of them was just awesome. Even the roti was amazing and the curry that came with it.
Service was great. The food was delicious. We ordered lumpia, and two of the traditional plates which are what the servers recommended. Everything was so tasty. You really have to get down and dirty and eat the chicken with your hands but it’s part of the whole experience. The fried chicken part of the Rames plate was absolutely delicious. Will definitely be back
The food here is legit southeast asian; the flavours are excellent. We had the nasi goreng jawa, ikan bakar, kangkong, and vietnamese iced coffee. Mildly spicy for southeast Asian standards. Highly recommend
A pleasant Thai experience with authentic items and flavors but it falls short in some areas.
Parking is a very tiny and busy lot so during busy times you'll have a better chance just going to the streets nearby. The outside area can get a little be chaotic and jank as well. Service was fine and unremarkable
Laksa: Get!
Always love the bright flavors and how all the tart, sour, and savory flavors combine so well.
Roti: Get!
So amazing similar to the laksa, it's just so composed that fills all your different taste buds and makes you go mmmmmm
Mei tek tek: Skip
This item took an extra 15 minutes to come out and when it finally came it was quite bland. Didn't have any personality at all and could have been something I threw together at home.

This was my first experience with Indonesian food, and it was fantastic. The service was attentive, and friendly. Staff were able to make any customizations needed as well. Absolutely delicious, and would recommend (:
This is our family's go-to for Halal Indonesian food. We love the food. Our only critique is recently the portion sizes for each dish has gotten smaller. I understand if it's due to inflation but if I knew before I would have ordered more. Usually our 6 dishes (for 2 adults and 2 kids) gives us left-overs for the next day. This time we hardly had anything leftover.
Simpang Asia is my favorite Indonesian café in Los Angeles. Food is delicious and authentic, it’s comfort food. The best is to come with a group and share food family style! Every time I come here, it’s always a feast and would order about everything on the menu. Definitely order the traditional dishes, they’re served on banana leaves and comes with a variety of the popular Indonesian food, you will get a taste of everything! If you love bold distinctive flavors, you will love Indonesian food.
Simpang doesn’t serve alcohol, but there is a bar next door. Simpang will allow you to order drinks from the bar and take it to your table while eating there. You can even keep your bar tab open and ask the bartender to bring the drinks to you while you eat.
Had laksa and Nasigoreng jawa. Both were great. If you are into spicy food, order nasigoreng jagger. Great atmosphere.
Food was mostly really good and presentation was solid. The migoreng was amazing.
My only issue is they don't remove the stems from their green beans. It's a big pet peeve of mine so have to mention it. But I would still recommend this place.

Simpang Asia serves authentic and flavorful Indonesian food in the heart of west LA. Their menu is expansive and teleports you to Southeast Asia with their bold and distinct flavors.
🍽️Ordered:
1. Char kway teow
2. Nasi Bungkus
3. Chicken sate
4. Roti Paratha
5. Garlic string beans
This meal was AMAZING! Everything was absolutely delicious and I enjoyed every last bite. I can quickly see that this will be my comfort food from now on since each dish is hearty and packed with familiar flavors. My favorite was the nasi bungkus since it had chicken curry, beef rendang, and rice. I loved this place so much that I came back twice in a week.
💡Tips:
-go to the bar next store (Boardwalk 11) while you wait, they have the yummiest flavors of beer on tap & they allow you to bring it in this restaurant
-order coconut rice with the nasi bungkus, it adds another rich layer of sweetness to the curry
-there is a parking lot here but it’s rly small so you may need to get street parking
-go with a group and order a lot of dishes to try a little bit of everything!
