Ny Ratna Kitchen

"Thee ONLY authentic Indo food around! Can be hard to access with limited opening hours but definitely worth picking up some fried goodness, yummy curries and the sambals of my dreams :)"

"Ny Ratna Kitchen has became one of my favourite Indonesian restaurant in Melbourne. They have varieties of Indonesian food and very authentic. Since the lockdown, all the weekend menu that have so many episodes looked interesting and delicious. My church used to order many times from Ny Ratna before the lockdown. We called it Nasi kotak. Recently, I bought Nasi Merah Putih Nusantara, Sop Saudara Makassar, Lumpia Semarang and Cake Potong Coklat. My kids love Kue Bolu, the Lumpia Semarang is also the best, crunchy and yummy. Nasi Merah Putih Nusantara represents Indonesian Independence day , I love the chicken satay that is tender and the prawns have delicious sauce so overall is worth to taste. I will definitely recommend Ny Ratna Kitchen."

"The food is absolutely delicious! It appeared to be a small family run restaurant. So the menu may not have a lot of options, but they do offer very authentic Indonesian food nonetheless. It's probably good to know that they have special dishes only on Saturday, so if you were looking forward to having something special (photos featured on the reviews) you might be disappointed. Please don't be, as their regular dishes are great as well. For instance the smashed beef ribs (slow cooked) was one of the bests I ever had. Moreover, it's one more reason to come back on a Saturday. The service was awesome, as they are very nice and friendly. The price is reasonable (actually quite competitive) and the portion is generous. All in all, an absolute recommendation!"

"Out for dinner with mates and found the place to be cozy and the owner super friendly, the wooden large table is spacious to sit together with many people. We ordered Fried Rice, Chicken Satay, hot bowl of Cuanki soup, Grilled quarter chicken, and Nasi Uduk, we enjoyed every bit of all the food, nicely presented and each with its own sambal, its perfect, especially the Chicken Satay and Grilled Chicken, very delicious and flavoursome! The peanut sauce is just so good! Definitely will come back again to try their specialty, the Special fried duck and smashed Beef Ribs!"
