"Bali Café is a little Indonesian spot where you can get some very generous portions of dishes you won’t find done this well anywhere else in the area. The big menu includes everything from poke bowls to sushi rolls—but you should focus on their Indonesian dishes, like the nasi goreng special. It comes in a little bento box with separated portions of fried rice, coconut chicken curry, and a tender pile of rendang. There’s no shortage of things to look at in the restaurant, which is decorated with colorful statues and masks you’ll want to touch and try on. Please don’t. Instead, just order the es campur for dessert—an icy and gelatinous sweet soup that puts snowcones to shame." - ryan pfeffer, mariana trabanino, virginia otazo
"Bali Café is a little cash-only Indonesian spot where you can get some very generous portions of dishes you won’t find done this well anywhere else in the area. The menu is very large and includes everything from dumplings to sushi rolls—but you should focus on their signature Indonesian dishes, like the nasi goreng special. It comes on a little cafeteria-style tray with separated portions of fried rice, coconut chicken curry, and an awesomely tender pile of rendang. There’s no shortage of things to look at in the restaurant, which is decorated with colorful statues and masks you’ll want to touch and try on. Please don’t." - ryan pfeffer
