Indo Bistro — Restaurant in West Covina

I’d like to share my disappointment with the service I received during my recent visit to your restaurant. When I sat down, the table was not clean, so I politely asked an employee (with very short hair) for napkins to clean it myself. Instead of helping, she told me to move to another table. I ended up getting napkins from my car and cleaned the table myself. Later, she came to take our order and brought a wet towel, wiping only the side of the table without checking whether it had already been cleaned by us.

The food was great, but the poor attitude and lack of basic courtesy significantly affected my experience. I had planned to order more food to take home, but I lost interest and didn’t even take my leftovers or order the sweet drink I usually enjoy.

I hope management addresses this issue and reminds staff to provide better service to all customers. Simple courtesy can make a big difference.

Thank you for your time...

I don’t see a lot of Indonesian food places around, so I wanted to try it.

We had the #19 Nasi Bunkus Padang. It is a rice dish wrapped in banana leaf. It wasn’t as spicy as we were told and that’s a good thing say tolerance for spice is low. It was a decent dish. There was such a mix of everything it was hard to tell what’s what lol.

Soto Bewati was good. It is a soup in rich coconut base curry. There is beef tripe and beef in it. I loved the texture of it. There were crackers you top it with. That was good.

The shop has a mini grocery. I got myself some Teh Botol tetra packs. 6 for $12. I had those in bottles in Indonesia. I recall it was much sweeter in Indonesia when in bottles.

The lady who served us seems grouchy 😂 Please...

I don't recommend eating at this dump.

It's fairly dirty and unkempt, and they regularly sell food that has been sitting out uncovered. In fact, I bought some noodles there a few days ago (sorry but I don't remember the exact name of the dish), that was served with spoiled tea eggs. It was takeout, otherwise I would have asked for my money back.

Anyway, the substandard fare at this establishment is nowhere near worth the prices they charge. Even if it was much cheaper, eating here means potentially sacrificing one's health due to the unhealthy conditions of the restaurant....
