Local Food Picks






1. Sadrasa Kitchen & Bar
Modern Indonesian plates with bold local character.
“We've been visiting Sadrasa at the new Pullman Bandung several times already for different occasions and it certainly never failed us! After a last minute decision we've went here for the set menu on Christmas Eve. First being a bit sceptical on the low price (we booked without even asking what is included), we were absolutely stunned by what we got. Welcome Eggnog, several courses along with a selection of drinks including wine already part of the package we paid. We then spent Chinese New Year at the hotel for a short staycation and after the previous Christmas experience didn't think twice but booked the set menu again and one more time were absolutely stunned on the selection and quantity of food provided for a very reasonable price. I still remember that at one point we were asking how many more dishes will come, since we were already struggling to try everything brought to our table. But Sadrasa team around Chef Ian (fantastic guy and you'll most certainly see him around!) & the very forthcoming restaurant manager Kiki, is not only doing great on set menus, the breakfast buffet is also huge with a fabulous selection of Asian and Western dishes. Again, my wife and I kept eating even though already full, since we wanted to try ALL of the dishes. And also, they have ice cream at breakfast buffet!! 😁🍦 Now just recently I took my team out for Iftar to Sadrasa, knowing that I won't be failed for sure, while the price at 285k absolutely great value for money compared to other 5* hotels in town charging 350-450k. And again... I couldn't even try everything I wanted since the selection was so huge and everything I tried was so tasty! For tajil already they had 4!! different types of dates, among other yummy things of course. The food selection went from very local (salty Martabak), through Indonesian dishes (try the Sate!), Middle Eastern dishes (2 different types of Shawarma) & also European cuisine (very nice pizza & 4 different types of very authentic Italian pasta sauce at live cooking station). One of the multiple highlights for sure the Kambing Guling! Those are just some highlights, I couldn't even list everything if I tried! I'm a dessert lover and as much as I wanted, I couldn't try it all! Again including ice cream station and a chocolate fountain. One more thing to highlight is the great implementation of health protocols. Besides the usual temperature checking etc. the whole buffet gets served by the team and you won't have to worry about your health & safety! On top of it all I'd also like to mention the bar at Sadrasa and especially their Mixologist Didda! No need to order the same old standard drinks you always order, but just tell him about your favorite spirits and flavors and he'll find the right drink for you. Try the signature drink created by him that is inspired with the local surroundings. My wife and I love Moscow Mule and the one we got here was among the best we've been ever served. With fresh ginger and in a copper mug as it's supposed to be! Overall the place is very highly recommended & we can't wait for the rooftop bar and the Mad Cow restaurant on top of the hotel to open.”






2. Nasi Mandhi Bosgil Citarum Bandung Kota
Fragrant mandhi rice layered with rich spices.
“Have been seeing clips of this place in instagram and finally can come and visit, it doesn't disappoint. If you come here, the first thing you will notice is the PR's friendly manner, greeting you a welcome and escorting you to the counter. The cashier matches his energy, warmly guiding you through the menu and taking your order. Once you pay, the PR escorts you to your seat (unless if you wanna sit inside, I guess) The chicken is super tender and tasty to the inside. The rice is super fulfilling. For breakfast, this is more than enough indeed. If you order the sweet ice tea, you will be given a huge glass of it. The tea is so nice with a hint of vanilla. Like it so much 🥰 What I like is that there is always someone standing by just in case we need something, while the others are busy in the kitchen. Talking about effective job divisions 👍 They also clean the tables quickly. Well done in that matter. Oh, need to mention, seeing the packaging used to deliver their online order, it's just wow to see how it is packed neatly with a box. What's amazing is that whenever someone is done, they will greet them farewell. Great training of the employees here really pays off. Love this experience so much 🥰 So to everyone working this morning (27 April 2025), thank you for giving me a great first experience eating here. You guys are great 👍👍👍 One thing that I would need to mention is the people coming to ask for money. It is not uncomfortable but it would be better if it can be reduced to create a great eating experience.”

5. Kampung Kecil Bandung
Village-style Indonesian comfort for gatherings.
“We had lunch here on a weekday, not a weekend. Enter from Jalan Perintis, the parking area is large enough for many cars. The place is spacious, neatly arranged and clean. We can sit at wooden tables and chairs or in the saung while sit on the floor. The Saung is surrounded by a pond filled with fish. The system is that we order first, there is a menu book, pay first then sit down. The menu is extensive including liwet rice, honey grilled spare ribs, hotplate grilled gourami, kangen kampung package, rice package with various choices of gourami dishes or chicken dishes. This rice package includes white rice, sayur asem, sambal and plain tea. We ordered a package for 6 people, containing white rice, spicy cooked chicken, salted egg gourami, flour fried squid, pete balado anchovies, kangkung cah seafood, sayur asem, orange ice, tea ice, sambal lalap. The overall taste was good according to taste, although nothing special. Other facilities include a prayer room, toilet and VIP room. There are 2 VIP rooms with a capacity of around 18 people each. There is also 1 room for a sound system and karaoke. If we are a group, the VIP room is free for the first 2 hours, then there is a charge. Enjoy the photos and videos.”






6. Nasi Kapau Kedai Pak Ciman Bandung
Hearty Kapau dishes rich in Minang spices.
“This restaurant isn't like most Padangnese eateries. This restaurant has a distinctive taste of historic Minangkabau. Bold spices; all the herbs blended perfectly into the meat but doesn't leave hot after taste in your mouth. If this is your first time trying Minangkabau foods, we recommend Ayam gulai (chicken curry), if you would be daring go with Cincang (beef curry) or Rendang the explosion of flavor will give you Mouthgasm. Nothing goes wrong if you pick Tunjang, with a chewy texture it'll make your tongue dance. Gulai otak (Cow brain curry) and Gulai Telor ikan (fish egg curry) have a gooey texture but it has a sweet taste. The bottom line is you should try all the menus here. This restaurant is open in other area also, you should check the availability on google”






7. jalaseafood by Golden Monkey - Lengkong Kecil
Fresh seafood dishes served with bold seasoning.
“The place is easy to access and easy to find, but rather small as a restaurant. It also has a small area to park in front of the restaurant. They have 1 bathroom, 1 sink, and 1 small musholla. For the seafood, it is delicious but a little bit salty. So it's best to eat it with some rice. Oh, they don't give you any tools to open the lobster or crab cause they make incision on the shell. And it helps us to just crack it with our hands. Overall, it's a nice place to eat seafood.”






8. Theo's Wife Lois
Cozy comfort plates perfect for relaxed dining.
“Visited TWL on Saturday, 12 July 2025. The place is pretty, service was okay, ambiance was great. Food 1. Chicken Popcorn [8/10]: Crispy chicken with flavorful coating. It has a very spicy dipping sauce but nevertheless, taste really good. 2. Sea Salt Caramel Basque Cheesecake [6.5/10]: I thought it was the normal basque cheesecake because there was no sign telling what flavour it was & I grabbed it ASAP because there was only one left. Taste wise, does not have the cheesecake feel to it, it is leaning more towards vanilla-cheese cake. I did not taste the sea salt & caramel which made me shocked a little bit when I saw the bill. The good part that it is a quite big portion. 3. Bacon Cheeseburger (9/10): Excellent cheeseburger, every ingredients used complement each other magnificently. If I have the chance to explore Bandung again, I definitely will come back to eat TWL Bacon Cheeseburger. Drinks: 1. Black Forest [7.5/10]: It has heavy cherry taste which mask the cold brew, grated chocolate on top to mimic the cake. It is a unique drink to try. They also have a complimentary drink if you are waiting in line. If any of you read this review, please do try their cheeseburger. Thank you for the great food. 100/10 will come back for your burger 🥓🧀🍔”






9. Bijan Restoran Nusantara
Heritage Indonesian recipes with refined touch.
“Truly serving the next level of Nusantara cuisines in Bandung! As the scene starts growing at quite a rapid pace, we'v got new players coming up and each time it just gets better! As of last evening, Plataran, move aside because now Bijan has overtaken you! Keep it up and you are sure to soar! The asem asem daging was kurang asem, ( do make it to become more asem please!) but it was great nonetheless, kudos to you for the bebek goreng bali, the meat did not reek of game one bit as testified even by my wife who is senstive to such stuffs! Please do add more soup dishes such as soto betawi, i'd like to definitely taste your take on such an iconic dish! And do not overlook the pineapple - shaped nastar thats individulally wrapped packaged in the 2 jars at the front entrance cashier's bread shelf top! The filling is amazingly delicious and dont get me started on the tart bit, heavenly buttery soft! At Rp13,000 each that is a bargain for this side of paradise that you will your palate with! Kudos7!!!!!!!”






10. Dadar Beredar Ujung Berung
Sweet and savory street-style pancake bites.
“Ini pertama kali saya makan di sini. kebetulan lewat dan memutuskan untuk makan di sini. Ternyata nggak mengecewakan, tempatnya bersih dan meja kosong tersedia nggak antri. Menunya juga variatif dan banyak pilihan rasa seperti dadar usus, dadar udang, dadar kulit, dadar daging dst. Pilihan telurnya juga ada, dadar krispy, dadar bakar dan ceplok. Pelayanannya ramah, kasir dan waitress penuh senyum dan informatif. Hanya mungkin menunggunya agak lama karena pas saya pesan, kebetulan ada grab dan gojek yang antri pesanan juga buat dibungkus. Makanannya enak, nasinya pulen porsi besar beralaskan daun pisang, telur dadarnya enak dan kriuk gurih dengan bayam krispi yang enak dan diberi dua macam sambal, sambal bawang merah dan sambal hijau. Sambalnya nggak pelit ngasihnya, banyak cabenya dan pedasss dan dua jenis sambal ini sama-sama enak menurut saya. Secara harga, murah meriah dan lezat, worth it banget menurut saya. Minumannya standar, porsinya besar dan harga murah. Wastafel tempat cuci tangan bersih, kamar mandi juga bersih. Masukannya mungkin perlu ditambahkan menu tak pedas sama sekali yang cocok buat anak-anak ya, karna saya bawa anak 7 tahun, menunya terbatas hanya bisa nasi telur dadar saja”
