Ron Gastrobar Indonesia Ouderkerk

This wasn’t my first time having Indonesian food, but it was my first time trying it outside of Indonesia. Since Indonesian cuisine is one of the most popular in Amsterdam, we decided to give this restaurant a try, and I’m so glad we did. The atmosphere and decor were beautiful, and the staff couldn’t have been kinder. They were friendly, helpful, and incredibly accommodating. We had a large group with all kinds of dietary restrictions, including two pescatarians, one vegetarian, two people who don’t eat pork, and one person with a severe sensitivity to MSG and high-glutamate foods. That means she has to avoid anything slow-cooked or made with broths and sauces that release high levels of glutamate during cooking. Needless to say, the chef had a huge challenge to work with. Despite that, they never once made us feel like we were an inconvenience. The food took a while to come out, understandably so, but everything was handled with care and attention. They made sure everyone had something to eat, offering thoughtful substitutes for each person’s needs. Everything was delicious, but a few dishes really stood out. I usually don’t eat lamb because I don’t like the taste or the smell, but I mistakenly tried the lamb yesterday and was so pleasantly surprised. It was absolutely delicious, full of flavor, and didn’t have that usual lamb-like taste or scent. It ended up being my favorite dish of the night. The beef stew was also cooked perfectly; the meat was so tender it melted in my mouth, and the sauce was rich and flavorful. Overall, the food was amazing, but what truly made the experience special was the kindness and patience of the staff. The chef even came out personally to talk to one of our friends to make sure he fully understood her sensitivities and could prepare her meal safely. We left full, happy, and so grateful for the thoughtful service, warm hospitality, and wonderful

Great food, great environment. Good for small groups or family dinner.

I went for lunch on a Sunday and had an amazing experience. The food was absolutely delicious, that service was outstanding and the atmosphere was great both inside and on the tables outside. I had the kerucut ikan tuna and the udang bola bola to start, followed by the rice plates (pescatarian version) and had the caramel balls for dessert. The drinks were also really good. I definitely recommend it.

Amazing! It was such a different and unique experience. If I was closer I would be a regular!

Best service i have had in the Netherlands. We had the Black box and the Ron. Both multi dish options and absolutely what I would get again. Also had the Smash which was absolutely surprising and delicious. Oh and the spicy and regular hot sauces were amazing. Great meal and we will be returning.

This is a must try place when visiting Amsterdam! It's a bit out of the way from the main touristy spot but all the more reason to make a trip out of it. The choices that they offer would work best if you come with a group so you can try all kinds of items, but between the two of us, my wife and I shared a 12 bowl Rijsttafel combo was excellent. Great flavors, textures, variety. Gotta go!

Fantastic Indonesian rice table experience. The food is superb, the staff knowledgeable and passionate about their jobs and they can almost always take you quite late at night. We went for the full works on the rice table and the quality and portion size were terrific. The prices are not cheap and you pay something for the atmosphere and settings but it is a great experience overall and well-location for anybody staying in surrounding hotels.

Delicious Indonesian food! Was better than many restaurants in Jakarta. Highly recommend ikan dabu. So good.

Came here with a group of 11 people with varying food preferences and allergies and they were able to accommodate us super well!! The food here is fantastic, there was nothing that was below a 9 on the flavor scale. Their drinks are also fantasyland superrr inventive. I got a mule with pandan and it was a flavor combo like no other. I also really love that the courses were family style like this, so fun!

This is a delicious place, nice service, inventive desserts Compared to other rijsttafel, the meat dishes were more tender and juicy, the sauces better crafted. The spice level was lower We had the 15 dish (angus) that adds fish and a beef. We had not had fish in other restaurant's versions. Our favorites were goat satay, anything with peanut sauce, anis beef, tofu and cabbage in soy. The egg dish which is customary was better here-- egg not over cooked or soaked. Also came with fried banana which was yummy Desserts were so interesting looking we had to try one. Wow. Chocolate mousse balanced with the brown sugar syrup ( molasses flavor) and soursop sorbet. Really balanced nicely and visually lovely. 2 gendered bathrooms are clean but pretty narrow. This is outside of town. Uber about 20 euros. Could also get here by public transport.

Great location and the best rijsttafel so far. Just pick a sunny day and ask for a table on the terrace along the water. You do not need much more.

Amazing food! Everyone here is outstanding. The service is wonderful and the staff is very pleasant. This is the best Indonesian food you'll find anywhere. The ambiance is wonderful as well. I have recommended this restaurant to everyone I know going to Amsterdam. Although it is not in the heart of the city it is easy to get to. Definitely call for a reservation but even if you get a late time believe me it's worth it. I can't wait to go back.

The best EVER. You must try the rice buffet. Phenomenal!! Sit outside. Beyond gorgoeus in warm months. Best meal of our trip to Amsterdam (and we are foodies!).

In a way out part of Amsterdam, the ca ride cost 45€. Uber back was only 23€. But it was a lovely ride and I saw a part of Amsterdam I didn't know. Restaurant is clean and pretty, staff friendly and helpful. Wine list needs some Rieslings and a bit of improvement. The best thing to eat here is the 15 course sampler. It's a quick meal as everything arrives at once--2 types of rice, lots of meat courses in gravy, vegetables, and fried banana. Flavors are distinct and good, a fun vibe but over quickly, not expensive. I was not familiar w Indonesian food; this crash course in their cuisine was fun.

The most tasty Indonesian food in Netherlands. And the chef Agus is so friendly and smart tomake the food even more interesting

This is an OUTSTANDING RESTAURANT! I have not had an authentic Rijsttafel in the Netherlands since my last visit 44 years ago. Wow was I glad we chose this location to celebrate with two other couples. Waitstaff were fabulous! Food was Perfect. The highlight of the evening was the personal interaction with Chef Agus. Not only welcoming and extremely personal, Chef Agus took the time to explain preparation, ingredient selection, and how the rijsttafel should be eaten. Many complimentary dishes rounded out his attention to us, and the meal presentation! By far, the highlight of our culinary odyssey across Europe! Thank You Chef Agus !

Phenomenal food, Friendly service and terrific ambience in a little (cute) suburb/town outside of Amsterdam overlooking the canal. Make reservation and try the dishes recommended by the chef. We didn't go with the rice table option, but the fusion dishes. One of the best meals we've had.
