INDO Restaurant & Lounge - Palo Alto (CA)

5 /5 Gruff Has: ADDING IT TO THE "ROTATION"! We like really extra delicious food. Thats what I tell locals whenever soliciting restaurant advice: "whats the most delicious food?" I only grabbed a Pic of the dessert (graciously offered after seeing us hem and haw about it), but the food here was insane. I said "whoa" out loud twice while eating dessert. Spiced like gingerbread, one of the most unique cakes weve ever had, with some sort of crazy smooth vanilla ice cream and creme anglais. Still reading? Just come here. If you want more details though, heres our order: -hot chocolate ginger cake with vanilla ice cream (blueberry and fresh strawberry) -roti: soooo good. Probably the table favorite, we almost order this for Salty dessert -pad thai: well executed. We got chicken that was nicely cooked, juicy not dried, not too citrus-y -rib eye: no regrets. Dip it in roti sauce for bonus flavor party Shout out to the bartender with the silky baritone. Juan, you magnificent man, we will be back... frequently! (Maybe next time Ill take pics of the food before inhaling it)

5 /5 Tim Oey: Excellent Indonesian / Asian Fusion restaurant. One of the best Indonesian restaurants I have visited outside of Indonesia. Casual dress code. No bike parking but considerable car parking. Google directions tend to have you overshoot the side street of El Camino you need to take to get to the parking lot and restaurant entrance. The chicken and lamb satay were both excellent as well as the Gado Gado, Ayam Rica Rica, and Nasi Goreng. Very attentive service kept our water glasses full and empty serving plates cleared. Can order individually or family style.

5 /5 Olivia Tam: I like Indonesian food but there are not that many around. We decided to try this one. The restaurant can accommodate many diners but on a Saturday lunch, there are only few guests. We followed the recommendations of the waiter to order the salad Gado Gado, the roti prati, the short ribs and the nasi goreng. The nasi goreng (Indonesian fried rice) comes with a spicy kick, rich flavor and is very delicious, we highly recommend it. The short ribs are tenderly cooked with a tasty sauce and can go very well with plain rice. Dont be disguised by the modest front look of the restaurant from the street, the food is tasty, the ambience is nice and the waiter is hospitable. They have some special dessert that we would come back next time.

4 /5 Shree S: I’ve been a regular here for many years, and the quality has remained consistently great. It’s the perfect place for a casual lunch or dinner during the week. The ambiance is enjoyable, and the food is always top-notch with a wide range of options. The drinks are also fantastic. Highly recommended for anyone looking for a reliable and delicious dining The service is great

5 /5 Matt McKay: I dined here with 2 colleagues. We are in the food and hospitality industry. This place knocked our socks off. We tried 10 plates and a few craft cocktails, and this was one of the best food experiences we have had in a quite awhile. We dine weekly at restaurants across the country. Yes I am very lucky. Melissa was our server she was great. Linda the manager spent time with us and gave us the great back story of the restaurant.
