Nasi Gandul Bu Endang

Authentic Central Javanese flavors done very well. Among the many places serving nasi gandul, this is easily my favorite in Jakarta — rich, comforting, and full of depth. The soto kemiri here is also excellent, with a creamy, aromatic broth that really stands out. Definitely a place I’d return to when craving true Javanese comfort food.

It's a typical javanese warung served famous javanese dishes. The most famous one is the nasi gandul (specialty from Pati) but they also sell Tahu Gimbal, Rawon and Nasi goreng babat. I felt the spices are too strong and the fritter for tahu gimbal is too hard to chew. Price is cheap though.

Well.. im so excited to find this place Ive been longing for nasi gandul for long time ago... long time never go to Pati or Semarang to eat... Not bad but of course cant compare the original from Pati But the vetsin is too much they use

The Nasi Gandul is good, a little bit too sweet for my taste, but with the green sambal, it's ok. Fried Tempeh was sooo good!. The staff were all old ladies, they were sweet but slow. Since it wasn't busy so it's still ok, can't imagine when it gets busy. Place was super-hot and looks old. No price on the menu, damage was Rp91. 000 for: 1/2 Nasi Gandul 1 Nasi Gandul 1 Plate of Tempeh (5-6 pieces) 1 Iced Jeruk/Orange 1 Empal. They could make the place prettier and add price on the menu. I will be back only if it's empty juat like when we visited today, easy parking right in front of the door, roadside.

Nasi Gandul is a true gem of Javanese cuisine, and I had the pleasure of trying it during my visit to Java. The dish consists of perfectly cooked rice, soaked in a thick, creamy coconut sauce that’s infused with a harmonious blend of herbs and spices. The sauce is the heart of Nasi Gandul, and it’s what sets it apart from other rice dishes. Other than that, I ordered a set of Nasi Ayam. This flavorful meal consists of fragrant, seasoned rice served with succulent, tender poached yellow seasoned chicken. It’s accompanied by a medley of fresh vegetables (labu) and a flavorful sauce, such as spicy sambal or a savory soy-based condiment. Though all the meals are delicious, they are pretty small in size. Which is why another plate of Nasi Goreng Babat (famous around Semarang) and a bowl of hot Asam Asam Daging soup are on the table. This eatery offers dishes bursting with flavor and an authentic taste of Java. Definitely a must come-back.

Legendary Gandul in Meruya supposedly. The Gandul is warm.. easy to swallow without any thick spice leftover at your tongue. The asam2 is a bit under performing though, but the tempe goreng fits perfectly to the Gandul and soup! 😋 Overall 8/10 Good comfort food, but I would say nothing mindblowing yet.

If you miss authentic central java comfort food,especially nasi gandul, nasi ayam semarang, nasi gudeg etc. then pay a visit to this humble warung. have to try their various bacem and tempe goreng. their ice tea also bring up memories of java.

Nasi Gandul is a rice dish originating from Pati, Central Java that you won’t come across very often in Jakarta. Their nasi gandul is quite good, but not quite as good as the one you can get in Pati. The soup can be a little bit more sweet and the meat more tender as it is quite tough. Surprisingly I like their nasi ayam semarang more. I ordered 3 portions with 2 drinks and the bill was less than 100K, so good value for the portion you get.
