The food was good more like a comfort food just that it takes time for the food to be served, I wouldn't mind that as the food was great, the staffs were warm and welcoming, I went 15mins before they closed though it was past their kitchen closing time since the chef was there they dished up what I ordered, shows how much they prioritise their customers, will definitely recommend, the location is not a fancy one but it's pretty clean & well lit and the food is good.

4.5/5 but rounding up to 5 Stars! Awang Kitchen has been on my list of "places to go" for the longest time! I finally made it there, and seriously, cannot wait to go back. This may be my favorite Indonesian restaurant! They have an incredibly extensive menu; offering some dishes that I've never seen in other Indonesian restaurants. Even though there was 10 of us, we "only" got to try 8 dishes. There's just so much one can eat, right?! Hahaha But that's ok, even more reason for a return trip. All of the dishes that we tried were incredibly flavorful and distinct to each dish. The sole disappointing dish was the Omelet; compared to our other dishes, this Omelet seemed bland. Here are the 8 dishes we tried tonight: MENU (shared by 5ppl): - Cilok Goreng (tapioca cake balls) 15pcs/$7.50: I've never had this before! These were pretty good. Loved the peanut sauce. - Sate Young Goat 5 skewers/$17: we originally wanted to try the Clam Skewers but they were sold out tonight; in lieu, we ordered the young goat skewers. They were terrific, and came with mini-rice cakes and a spicy sauce on the side. This sauce was outstanding! - Gado Gado (mixed veg w.peanut sauce) $13: basic salad w.Veg, Tofu & Rice cakes, topped with a delicious peanut sauce. - Sayir Gulai Nangka (curry jackfruit) $6.00: this was rather disappointing since the portion size was tiny. It came in a little teacup sized bowl. The flavors were very mild and unmemorable. - Telor Dadar Bawang Cabe (omelet w.garlic, onion & chili) $6.00: compared to our other dishes, this omelet seemed bland. I wouldn't order this again. - Beef Rendang (beef w.spicy coconut milk) $24: This dish was bursting with flavor and just delicious. My only complaint is that this came with 4 big chunks of beef. This dish would have been outstanding had the pieces of beef been smaller; absorbing more of the delicious flavors and sauce. - Udang Goreng Sauce Telor Asin (shrimp & salted egg) $24: Absolute perfection. The shrimp was nice and crispy, without being overcooked. This dish was so addictive! - Tongseng Kambing (curry young goat) $17: this was a very small portion for the price but pretty good nonetheless. - Rice $3/Bowl: None of the entrees come with rice, so you have to order the rice separately. (Note that they do have "over rice" dishes if you don't want a full-sized entree). Service & Hospitality were very good. My only complaint is that all of our dishes came out at the same time (even though I asked them to space out the serving of the 8 dishes). It was a little overwhelming, and we ran out of room to place the dishes on our table. But service was very warm and friendly. There was a little confusion with the check, as we were paying cash, and there was no cash total; just a credit card total, which includes a credit card fee. Also, they charged tax on the combined credit card total. Tax and their "suggested tip" should be based only on our menu items; excluding the credit card fee. (Why would you charge us tax on a credit card fee; and why would we pay you tip for this credit card fee and the taxes?). Anyway, this confusing check forced us to recalculate 1). cash payment, 2). corrected tax, and 3). corrected 20% tip. Well...we paid the check with the corrected amounts and left. It's a good thing a few of us were lingering outside because the owner and waiter came running out, looking for us! I miscalculated the menu items (left out the cost of the rice), so I inadvertently shortchanged them by $18!! So sorry!! They very graciously said no problem and just let it go. Thank you so much!! :-) All-in-all, a fantastic, tasty meal. All 10 of us raved about the delicious flavors in most of the dishes. I will definitely be returning to try other menu items!
