“ After staying almost 2 weeks in LA, finally found the best restaurant in LA. Staffs are friendly with smile. The foods are so tasty and delicious.. must try the Nasi Uduk with fried chicken, and the Grilled Chicken, best . The place is not huge, but big enough for 30 people and very clean. Overall, i love this place and hope i can come back to enjoy it again Thank you! ”
“ Outstanding in every way. Bold flavors, justright portions, comfortable and beautiful space, not loud, cheerful and honest service with excellent menu suggestions. The water spinach wow! And the sauce for the roti paratha is out of this world!! ”
“ This place is amazing. My family took me out for my first REAL Indonesian food. The food and people are awesome!! Great experience. My family is Indonesian, so they know good Indonesian food. I plan on revisiting everytime Im there. L ”
“ Theres so much to choose from here, and everything Ive tried has been excellent. The kwetiau goreng is the standout dish for me. I love the chewiness of the flat rice noodles paired with all the flavors of the chicken and veggies. I do prefer it to the mie tek tek, which I find has a stronger flavor but is also still delicious. The serving size isnt huge but I think its enough to get you full, and the pricing is fair for the quality and area. Wait staff is always friendly, service is quick, and the place has a modern, clean feel thats made even better with recent renovations and expansions. The parking lot can fill up on a busy evening, but theres some free street parking in the residential area nearby as well as another parking lot behind the building. Ive found on off weekdays its pretty quiet, but theres restaurant does fill up FriSun for dinner. ”
“ Simpang has a great variety of dishes on their menu that range from Thai, Indonesian, Chinese etc. There was no wait and it was somewhat busy the meal was quick and reasonably priced. This a great lunch spot or a simple dinner with friends. They have another location but the menu varies. ”
“ Authentic Indonesian food in an elegant and elevated setting. Decor shows clear presence of traditional elements with colonial influences. Plenty of seating all around with combination of tables with chairs and cushioned benches that can be easily arranged for small to large size groups. Some items in the menus are similar to the sister property of the original Simpang Asia, but there are uniquely innovative dishes that are only available at the Venice location, such as the Pad Thai that reminisces the char kway teao with familiar taste of traditional pad thai. Other dishes we had there are nasi goreng, roti phratha, sate ayam, and laksa which are all very tasty in their own right. The drinks are really good too, including the egg coffee Hanoi style, teh tarik, and the iced Vietnamese coffee. Service is friendly, prompt and efficient. Theres a small parking lot at the back side for all Lincoln plaza patrons. ”
“ Gem of a place! Fantastic customer service, pleasant ambiance, and good food. The menu is really well labeled for allergens and the staff is very attentive and listens well to customers orders. The sauce with the branzino was a little cold by the time it made its way to me, but otherwise quite good, very flavorful. ”
“ I came to Simpang for the first time on Wednesday this week and returned on Friday! That says a lot! What a gem of a place! Great quality food that is reasonably priced, amazing flavors, super cute decor, everything is spotless and the staff is professional and friendly. You cant ask for more! You gained a new regular customer. Ill be back again soon to try more of your wonderful food ”
