Kedai Nyonya Rumah — Restaurant in Bandung City

This restaurant was recommended to us by someone on the Tripadvisor forums, without them we would never have visited. You arrive at what looks a like a very nice bakery rather than a restaurant. Once you walk through the back of the bakery it opens out into a spacious restaurant with a huge fish pond surrounded by tables.

We were made very welcome by one of the owners, Lily, and her staff. The food was varied and excellent and there was live music from a good covers band. Most of the customers appeared to be regulars who were clearly known to the staff and greeted enthusiastically.

We had planned to visit another restaurant the following night, but were tired after a long day of sightseeing and lazily decided to go back to Kedai Nyonya Rumah. We were made even more welcome and seemed to have automatically become those regulars we'd watched being greeted the night before.

Lily told us about her Mum (the Nyonya in the restaurant name), gave us samples of some bakery items inspired by her, talked about how she had written cook books, and introduced us to children and grandchildren, some of whom have gone into the family business.

We would not have found this lovely restaurant without a recommendation and are now keen to recommend that...

Kedai Nyonya Rumah is, in my opinion, the best family restaurant in Bandung. Every dish I've tried there has been consistently excellent. I once ordered the ribs, and they were presented beautifully—hot, fresh, and with tender meat. I also tried their nasi campur Bali, which was rich, spicy, and authentic. Although I've ordered many other dishes that I can't recall in detail, the overall impression has always been one of satisfaction. Even the desserts, such as the banana split and cingcau, are delightful.

The restaurant is spacious, perfect for family gatherings. Kids will especially enjoy feeding the fish while dining by the pond. The service is quick, with food arriving promptly, and the cashier at the front is engaging and helpful.

The only minor drawback is that one of the waiters (who seemed new) lacked knowledge about the menu, which was a bit surprising given the outstanding quality...

Tempatnya kalau dari luar dan depan terlihat kecil. Hanya terlihat toko kue saja yang kue2 nya tapi enak, dulu pernah dapat snackboxnya dan risoles dll terasa ebak sampai akhirnya tempatnya dicari. Ternyata restoran juga. Soal kue macam2 kue yang biasa kita kenal sebagai kue di snack box atau kue tradisional. Restoran cukup luas. Tempatnya nyaman, ada kolam dan pelayan selalu standby meskipun pas diawal juga dibiarkan lama, alias tidak dikasih kartu menu, akhirnya ambil sendiri di bagian masuk, kurang tahu apakah ditaruh disana bermaksud untuk tamu memang biaa/ suruh ambil sendiri, atau apakah kita terlalu santai cari2 tempat/ meja sambil bawa kue yang kita beli di toko kuenya. Soalnya tujuan untuk makan kue saja sambil minum, karena belum lapar juga. Akhirnya pesan pizza, tapi di sini minusnya. Pesan Pizza yang dengan paprika - yang anak2 sudah bilang mereka tidak suka dan nanti mama suruh makan paprikanya, Yang variant full keju mereka takut rasanya tidak enak seperti yang di tempat lain itu. Cuma ternyata Pizzanya agak pedas dan bukan paprika merah dan hijau tapi hanya Paprika merah dan yang hijau ternyata mungkin cabai hijau yang besar2 gitu. Dan kadang terumpat dibawah keju, yang tidak terlihat dan kemakan oleh anak, dan kepedasan banget sampai dia heboh. Menurut saya kalau dikasih cabai semestinya di menu jangan ditulis hanya paprika tapi juga peperoni atau chili atau setidaknya ada tanda spicy supaya tidak diambil. Soalnya kalau Paprika sendiri mau yang netah kuning atau hijau itu tidak pedas. Jadi sayapun berani2 saja. Masalahnya kalau soal Pizza itu selalu makanan yang anak2 juga suka pilih dan makan, makanya kalau bisa harus dikasih tanda atau informasi jelas bahwa ini bukan paprika saja atau bahwa ada pedasnya, karena anak2 masih ada yang tidak suka pedas. Minumannya pesan yang coklat gitu. Ada menu2 yang menarik, tapi balik lagi memang tidak bertujuan untuk makan berat. Ada musholla yang laki2 harus naik, yang perempuan di bawah, tempat wudhunya ada di dalam. Pas malam minggu juga lumayan ramai, meskipun sore pas datang...
