Djakarta-Bali – Restaurant indonésien Paris

Anglais The restaurant is beautifully decorated, and the atmosphere is fantastic. It's a little cramped, especially for moving around. The food is delicious, and the dishes are prepared with care. However, the portions aren't very generous considering the price, which I find a bit high. Despite this minor point, which could be improved, I gave it the highest rating in every category because I truly believe you deserve it. Congratulations!

Went here on our first night and last day in Paris. Tried their course menu and was very delighted by how generous the portions, and how good the taste was! As an Indonesian living abroad, I felt like I was being back in Indonesia just for a while. It tasted like home. Some dishes needed a little bit more of salt but I guess it’s adjusted to what people like here. But overall I was very happy and satisfied with the food and the friendly service! Will definitely go back there the next time I visit Paris!

I had the pleasure of visting this restaurant on 9 October 2025. I was told this restaurant has been here for 41 years. Location: Perfect location smack in downtown near Louvre. Walking distance for you to walk in the Parisian streets. Ambience: Cozy Indonesian Balinese feel with a mix of Parisian charm. They managed to embody that Parisian vibe -light buzzing social vibe of Paris /European feel yet calm and authentic feel of Indonesian restaurant. Food: Authentic with the use of fresh ingredients and homemade paste. No MSG beng used. The fragrance, aroma and traditional taste retained yet the use of alternative ingredients/vegetables that complement the dish. We are in Europe afterall and the limitations of the usual vegetables or certain ingredients. They managed to balance this. Must try the beef rendang, mie ayam (noodles with mushrooms and caramelized chicken) , nasi goreng (fried rice) with chicken satays. I love the tenderness of the beef, flavours of the beef rendang (stewed beef) with the burst of lemongrass taste and fragrance. The chicken satays must try especially with the peanut sauce. And comfort warm food mie ayam on a cool autumn and winter days. In Dutch we say : Absoluut een aanrader !

fancy ah indonesian restaurant in paris! the taste is authentic i love the mie ayam <3 and i think the vibes is also very indonesian (bali i must say) it feels warm and a bit like home! and their mocktail/cocktail drink is so good (order the one with coconut)!🥥🥥🥥

very nice ambiente, service people are really kind and making the customer smile :) The cuisine was wonderful! If you are really searching a good asian restaurant for eating with your families, with friends or even as a couple - I really recommend this resto. I would go there again when I come back to Paris! Thank you for your great service from beginning until the end. I really loved it

One of the first times I’ve eaten Indonesian food in France and Djakarta Bali did not disappoint! The service is impeccable, the room is beautifully decorated, and the food was delicious. Their peanut sauce is divine!! A must try if you enjoy Indonesian food or want to discover something new in a calm, romantic setting.

We came during lunch. I’m Malaysian so very familiar with the taste. The food I had were delicious and very well made Bali food. The portion is not big, but enough to fill you up for a while. Might be more filling if you order appetizer, which we didn’t cos we wanted to have a quick lunch.

It was a good restaurant! The atmosphere is nice! The decor truly describes Indonesian culture. People who work there are very nice and welcoming despite that we didn’t book our table before coming and the restaurant was fully booked. They decided to give us table 😃 btw the food is so tasty it’s really tasty and you can taste something different than the other restaurant that are in Paris !

Visiting Paris. Wife is from Bali. She loved the place (me too). Nice environment, good service and great food.

So this place is great. Aku tinggal di Hawaii, yg nggak ada resto indo sama sekali. Berarti I needed to cross the world for this place I think they may have shortened their menu in covid times, as there were only about 6 mains. Aku emang senang sempat bisa berbicara bhs Indo ama Paris locals, dan juga restonya dipegagang sama org Indo. The rendang and is what you need to order. If you also get the Nasi goreng, pay the extra for the sambal Maison. It's terasi style and just yum. I wouldve given this place 5 stars, but the mie ayam isnt so much so. The mie is just not what it should be. Maybe it's a more Parisian style. The flavours didn't stick and I needed to add kecap manis and sambal to make it tasty. Still didn't quite cut it. The rest of the food Made up for it. Just would never order the mie ayam again.

Amazing ambiance -- really felt like we were in colonial Indonesia. The host owners incredibly gracious! Shrimp lumpia, chicken sate very delicious as well as their very spicy sambal goreng!! The best part was the surprise, complimentary dessert at the end (bubur sum sum) ---soooooooooo yummy

tried them last week on my europe vacation. I saw someone having fish that was cooked in banana leaf. It was being served on the next table. I just loved the flavor and asked them to get that for me. One of the best fish i had. I was cooked to perfection had panang curry over it and got some steamed rice. We also ordered vegetarian rice. One thing that I noticed was that there was this distinct spice that i do not find in US thai and other asian restaurant. That spice flavor was something that i had never felt in any asian cuisine.. so different and authentic. It tasted real good. The owner of the restaurant was there and this is a high end restaurant and he was picking up plates and interacting with guests. Nice experience and great food and wine. It is a bit expensive but then i doubt you will get too many indonesian places in les halles or for that matter in paris :)

I am confident they overcharged us when they saw we were tourists. There were several instances of this. For example they asked if we wanted water and we said specifically tap water, we were then given a bottle of unsealed still water that tasted exactly like tap water but later saw on the bill that they charged us $8.50 euro for water. All three of us also got food poisoning from their Beef Randang dish a few hours later. As our trip was not very long, this really cut into our time in Paris unfortunately. I'm not sure why this establishment is not worse reviewed, I am genuinely confused. I would recommend staying away and opting for something else if you're considering this spot. I hope this helps others.

I came here for lunch and took the Rijsttafel Bandung. I must say that I was not impressed. The lumpia was over cooked and dripping with oil. The acar had ingredients that I never saw in this dish like carrot and red beet. The rendang was ok but to have this rijsttafel for 35€ was not worth it.

As an Indonesian I was so excited to come across Djakarta Bali when my family and I were in Paris. Unfortunately, we came out of there very very disappointed. The food was way less than subpar (even I could cook Indonesian food better than that) and the price was omg so expensive! The food was a little bland and the portion sizes were super small for the price. Nasi goreng (fried rice) was a 12E side dish!! For the sate, you only 4 "batang" for a whopping 14E. It was a little unreal--broke my little Indonesian heart. I truly do wonder if my experience would be different if we tried the ristaffel, but too late now (and I can assure you that we will never go back). On the bright side, the decor was super cute and everything was authentically Indonesian. Additionally, the wait staff speaks Bahasa. But I gotta say, this place will probably be disappointing if you have a drop of Indonesian blood in you.

Having lived in Indonesia for years, when I saw this restaurant, I thought it might make a nice change of pace for dinner. What I didn't expect was the most expensive restaurant in the (quite expensive) neighborhood offering tiny, child-sized portions. You can't really see much of the menu from outside, so it was a surprise. The food itself was reasonably good -- we got rendang, gado-gado, and a nasi goreng -- but the prices are astronomical for what you get, and it wasn't much better than what you'd eat at an decent street-side warung in Jogjakarta for a couple euros. There is nothing in dishes like nasi goreng or gado-gado, which I often cook at home myself, to justify these inflated prices. It's not as though you're getting a better cut of meat or fresh sea food or anything like that, it's just things like peanuts and garlic and eggs and tamarind paste. Comparing this place to its European neighbors, the profit margins are surely much higher considering what goes into the dishes. When you're charging 20 Euros for a cup of fried rice with a little chicken, something's really wrong. If you're rich and you are really craving Indonesian food, you could do worse, but for everyone else, just hop on a plane to the real Jakarta; the trip will pay for itself after a few lunches.

Still one of my all time favorites in Paris. The Djakarta Rijstafel menu is to die for. The chicken is tender, the krupuk melts on your tongue the way it should, the ambiance is lovely, right down to the beautiful restrooms. The menu for 25E is well worth it. It's a sampling of their best meals. Make sure you put the shredded coconut on everything! It's amazing. If I lived in Paris, I would come here every night.

Not the typical indonesian food you hoped for. The food is average,portion is small and the taste is average. Price is very expensive

Good but not value This restaurant has a well cared for and authentic atmosphere. Somewhat restricted menu. Overal food preparation is average. One would have at least expected the Sate Ayam to be barbecued rather than what appears to have been boiled and disguised in peanut sauce. At 9.50€ for four pieces of Kroepoek (Shrimp crackers) it is a rip-off. The portions are very small with a substantial price-tag.

I am a foreigner in Paris. I am so amazed with the beauty of all the buildings here, yet disappointed with Parisian's attitudes. Wow I am telling....getting inside this restaurant you see the difference, no fake smile and no fake decoration, the food is NOT FROZEN FOOD that you always get in general restaurant. Real person will appreciate this restaurant, a little bit more expensive than other but it is worth the meal and the place. I came so many times here, because I like the taste of the perfume rice. It is mouth watering and get melt it harmoniously with the rendang daging (beef marinated in coconut sauce) hhhmmmm... marrying it with Opor ayam (chicken in light curry coconut milk) and also so heavenly delicious with the Pepes Ikan (Fish cooked in banana leaves) ... You can get all these meals all at once in the menu Bali (55 euros) and I suggest you come with someone and order the menu Djawa, (30euros )menu with rice and shrimp sauted with tofu and fish in sweet sour sauce. Well.. I could not say more about this restaurant; witness it by yourself. You could forget the time you spend and heaven is there!
