Cimon Resto & Coffee — Restaurant in Jakarta

we have no idea why the place is not that packed.

food 10/10 service 10/10 place 8/10

the Gurame Asam Manis is surprisingly amazing. one of the best I've had for a while. the chef literally put all the fillet on the plate (some of the resto doesn't, there were 2 of us and we even struggling finishing it. but it was so good we don't want it to go to waste. lol

the Sapo Tahu is comparable to those big-chain restaurant, the soup is not too sticky. served in a ceramic bowl so it's still warm even after 30 mins or so.

my partner had Nila and Pare, he said it was good and he is a picky eater. he ordered 1 more rice, so it must be that good.

idk about other review but our meal came less than 15 mins, the server is soooo nice and swift.

the place is clean, has no smell at all. but quite easy to miss out if you are driving for the first time. they have a separate smoking room inside, that's a plus point.

overall, more than happy...

They have a wide range of menu from seafood to all kind of indonesian and some chinese food as well. The place is not too big but they are well known to their regulars. Ordered seafood kwetiau goreng (⭐️) and request to make the taste towards the umami style (the standard uses sweet soy sauce), and very surprise that they can accommodate my request and it tasted just perfect! They are also generous with the seafood. Also tried the pangsit the pangsit tek2 and it was also pretty good. Would definitely be back to try other menus. The only downside is just the cooking time is long, so don't come here when super hungry.

Update: back here again to try other menu Iga bakar penyet ⭐️ Mie goreng ⭐️ Seafood...

Buat yang berkantor di sepanjang Jl. Satrio, Jakarta Selatan dan kebetulan hobby seafood, mie ayam, atau iga penyet kalian ga ada salahnya cobain CIMON. restoran yang ada dinpinggir Jl. Satrio ini gampang banget ditemukan karena eye catching banget dengan spanduknya yang gede dan ngejreng merah..hehee..

CIMON ini sebenernya kalo kalian masuk akan terbagi menjadi 2 area: area restoran dan area untuk nongkrong - nongkrong minum kopi dll dan keduanya ber AC dan sangat nyaman.

Menu favorit di sini adalah mie ayamnya, iga penyet, dan pastinya sea food. Bagi pecinta mie ayam dan kalo makan 1 mangkok kayaknya belum sah gitu ya tenang aja ada porsi jumbo yang paling cocok di hati dan diperut kalian. Hehehe...

Untuk iganya juga enak, lembut, dan berasa bumbunya. Temen gw pesen iga penyet (biarpun pesennya iga penyet tapi kita tetep akan disajikan kuahnya juga 1 mangkok) dan emang buat kami - kami yang mulutnya adalah gudang cabe rasa iga penyet ini kurang pedes. Gw pesen sup iga karena mau kuah - kuah anget, bumbunya berasa beda sama sup iga yang gw makan walau agak sedikit light bumbunya kalo menurut gw.

Temen gw satu lagi pesen nasi goreng udang sama nanas, ini enak banget lho bumbunya berasa banget rempah - rempahnya dan udangnya juga ga sedikit.

Untuk harga moderat ke atas tapi trust me it worth dengan rasa, pelayanan, dan tempat nyaman yang kalian dapat.

Pelayanannya ramah dan cepat, lumayan...
