⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Authentic Indonesian Flavors at Kafe Betawi Citos
Kafe Betawi has always been one of my go-to places for authentic Indonesian cuisine, and their branch at Cilandak Town Square (Citos) delivers the same consistent quality. The atmosphere is cozy and perfect for family meals, business lunches, or simply enjoying traditional dishes in a comfortable setting.
One of my personal favorites here is the Garang Asam. The broth is refreshingly tangy with just the right balance of sourness and rich spices.

Overall, our dinner at Kafe Betawi did not meet our expectations, and the quality of the food was concerning. We hope they can address these issues to improve the dining experience for...

I ordered the Indonesian laksa but it had a mussel that tasted off to me. Apart from that, the taste was ok. I also tried the new salted caramel coffee but found it too sweet for my liking.
We shared some dishes such as the sate (tasted good) and goreng pisang (additional sweetness from the chocolate rice and with shredded...
