I love this place so much, I wish I could live in that kitchen! I have gone several times and ordered from them, and every single dish, drink, or dessert that I had has been SCRUMPTIOUS AND DELICIOUS, OMG!
The chicken gizzards, the liver skewers, the rendang... every single item on the menu is so dang good that you can't help but wish that the cooks there have the most amazing and fulfilling lives always and forever. What a way to make people's bellies so happy!
I came from NYC cause Many times i heard from friends this place is really good if you look for Indonesian Taste, and it's true, really good taste wise and portion wise. This is the best NASI GORENG i've ever try in USA. I will look forward to try other dishes when i came back to Philly.
My friends and I ordered takeout from D’Jakarta Cafe. This was my first time trying Indonesian food, and I would definitely try it again. We got the Beef Rendang, a slow-cooked braised beef in coconut milk, herbs, and spices for dinner. This dish reminded me of similar dishes in Nigerian and Indian cuisine. Overall, I loved the taste of this dish the most! We also ordered the Special Fried Rice and Mix Vegetables with Seafood Rice. All orders came in sizeable portions to share and had fresh ingredients.
My first experience trying Indonesian cuisine, so I don’t have much to compare it to. That said, I’ve been here twice now, everything I tasted was fresh and super tasty, and the service is great. Definitely a new go-to spot for me!!
My first indonesian cuisine and it did not disappoint. The DJakarta noodles tasted amazing. I love all the toppings but wished there was more and the portion could have been bigger. Plus, the nasi goreng was delicious as well.
I highly recommend this place when in the area.
Food was good & price was just right.
Authentic Indonesian food, delicious, reasonable price. We loved everything we ordered. It’s a small restaurant. Bubur ayam (chicken rice porridge) is so good. You must try the Mentega Udang goreng! It’s prepared the same way as I had it in Indonesia. Ikan Bakar (grilled fish) was also good. It’s cooked perfectly, crispy skin and moist meat. We couldn’t try the dessert because we were so full already. We’ll be back and try other dishes.
Such an incredible place! Delicious and very different food, bright spices and very welcoming people. Highly recommended!
When we lived in Philly, we probably ordered from D'jakarta Cafe at least once a month. Very good food at a reasonable price. Dining in is also great with attentive servers. Highly recommend.
Their food is good, waiting time much less to be desired. I believe their waiting time is much less shorter if you visit in weekdays, compares to weekend. We visit D’Jakarta Cafe last weekend with a big party, around 12 people and we could barely get any spot. However, their food is pretty tasty, I had soto and I wish their meat cut was bigger and chunkier. Other than that, this place is good if you would like to try Indonesian food.
