but we want to know what you think.

True Indonesian Food in PDX. Indonesian food is something wonderful. Having lived in various parts of Indonesia for over a year, and loving the food, I know the cuisine well. Taste of Indonesia serves it up. This place may be simple, but it is a treasure to those who love ethnic food. View Less …

Authentic, addictive ethnic food.
I know people are complaining about the lack of silverware and real plates. We solved that by ordering takeout every time. Now, my fiancee
order take out from Taste of Jakarta once a week. The owner is amazingly nice. The food is fresh, delicious, and spicy. My fiancee is from Malaysia and knows good Indonesian food. She is impressed, so take her word for it.
The nasi goreng and mi goreng are fabulous. They come with shredded fried chicken that's cooked until it's crispy. Perfect texture! The crackers get hard by the time my take out order gets home unfortunately.
The owner is real cool and takes the time to talk to his customers about anything. Really puts you at ease. I know a lot of people would rather have a more upscale Indonesian restaurant with better interior dec, silverware, real plates, and higher prices - but doesn't Portland have enough of upscale restaurants? These dishes are meant to be eaten in this casual setting - I prefer to save my money and eat here.

Just right spice mix. A must do for any foodie worth his/her salt. The balance of spices is great. No beer? Just have some mango or guava juice - it'll make the experience even more authentic. Can't miss with anything on the menu and the price is just right for what you get. Sure paper plates and plastic forks not of the top of restaurant ambience, but the bottom line is the food and the food is GOOD. View Less …
