Warung Mini

We tried a few different dishes and shared them between three people. The total bill was €39, which felt quite affordable. You can think of it as a casual, almost fast-food style place serving Surinamese dishes. Interesting to try and a nice change of flavors, but not life-changing.

I loved this place! The peanutsauce was to die for. We sat outside and it was lovely. All the food was amazing. The bread was outstanding.

I came here on a whim and got the saoto soup an fried plantain. It was so delicious! The broth was perfectly seasoned and the yellow salsa added a great spicy kick. Super yummy 😍

Lovely atmosphere in a quite unique restaurant in one of Rotterdam's most vibrant streets! Everything from the soups, sanwhiches and main dishes like nasi goreng were really good and at an affordable price! We got lucky to order ourselves before a storm of hungry people flooded the restaurant (: I recommend stopping by if you have the chance buy be careful with the spicy sauce!!

I’ve been coming here for several years and it was always a great combination of delicious (vegetarian) dishes and a lively, homey, neighbourhood atmosphere, where people of all kind of backgrounds would come to eat. Unfortunately, since the transformation of the restaurant (including screens, QR code menues, no possibility to order at the counter unless it’s takeout) the atmosphere has changed drastically which is very sad. I don’t want to sound nostalgic, but especially in times where everything is designed for efficiency and digital comfort a place such as Warung was a bit like an extension of the living room, a bit chaotic yet cozy. I will still be coming here because of the food and staff but it’s a shame that the management decided to go for the efficiency path while throwing character and uniqueness overboard.

I thought of dining in this place after reading all the food reviews. First of all this place is located in the pub street where this restaurant is one among the many. They have a very different way of ordering the food and taking a seat. You are first supposed to order the food and after that you need to find a table to sit, well this would work normally when the restaurant is not packed with people, but I don't how otherwise it could work. In my case I luckily found a place after ordering. This was my first time to try some Surinamese cuisine. I ordering Nasi Rames. It came in with a chicken skewer, rice, noodles, beef, vegetables and sausage. The portion size was really a lot. 17 euros for what I had ordered. Honsestly I didn't like the food that much, no because it was bad, but only because I don't like my main meals to be sweet. And lot of it was quite sweet. I am more of a person who likes savoury and spicy items in my main dishes. But I guess that's how the Surinamese cuisine is. I am sure many others might like the food, but sadly it's not my cup of tea. overall if you haven't tried the cuisine you should give it a go.

AHH I miss Suriname What I wish I could get everything. I got a large bami chicken and a nasi chicken and also the fried yuca with sailfish. This was all very tasty. The bami was tastier than the nasi. The salt fish was okay. Environment This was a rather small restaurant for the busy and popular place! Luckily I was quickly seated as I went and didn't have a wait. Niceness of the staff Very nice staff, explaining the menu to me and also patient with us as we decide on what to order. Dollar It was decently priced, I don't remember. It is the taste that mattered! Yes I would definitely return

I had the yuca with the shredded codfish as starter. It was the first time I had this and was pleasantly surprised that it was quite good. It was newly cooked as well, the yuca was crispy outside and soft and hot. There were 3 sauces that were complimentary. One was really spicy, the other 2 were good. Sweet soy sauce I think for the other one. The dish was fried rice with soy sauce chicken, sausage slices and egg. Interesting but really quite good. Portion size was good for 2 people. Very friendly service. I sat outside, they had a lot of tables and seating outside the restaurant.

I visited here in 2018 when I was backpacking in the Netherlands because I stayed at the King Kong hostel nearby. This place absolutely saved my palate after weeks of deep-fried seafood (with mayo), fries (with mayo/peanut sauce and onion), and many hash joints. I still remember I got the nasi goreng and chicken sate, and they were absolutely godsends, especially after a long time of having the flavour I was not the biggest fan of (mayo). I remember I brought a kiwi with me for this meal, and the flavour also blew her mind as she hadn't had anything like this in her own adventure in the Netherlands. Great and relaxing vibe too I'll for sure visit the Netherland again and come to warung mini.

Being a solo traveler and not being the best of planners. It's nice there are sites like yelp and tripadvisor out there to help relieve some of those 'uhh, what am I going to do today' moments. I was staying at the awesome City Hub down the block and decided to check this restaurant out. I went by fellow Yelper Michelle S's recommendation of the Gado Gado and Chicken with noodles. One would think, prices would be high like that of Amsterdam. The portions were big and good value. A lot of locals as well as tourists were here in this Witte de With establishment. I was pretty full after the meal. It was a pretty nice stroll down Witte de Withstraat back to City Hub.

This is a nice little place for some great Indonesian food. They do offer an English menu, but ask for it while you are waiting in line as they keep it away from the counter. One of the workers recommended the Saoto chicken soup, which is the most popular dish on their menu. The broth was light and very flavourful and there's a generous amount of shredded chicken with a hard-boiled egg. Served with a small bowl of white rice, this is definitely a must-try. I also had a bite of their soya chicken noodle, which had a great balance of flavours. Usually, I worry that fried noodle dishes may be too oily, but thankfully this isn't the case at Warung Mini. Two dishes with two drinks came out to €18 - a great deal, if you ask me!

Couldn't leave the Netherlands without some Indonesian food. Warung Mini is somewhat fast casual, where you order at the front and they bring you your food. But their portion sizes make it a real sitdown place (because you get a TON of food). I went with the mixed meat platter. It came with chicken skewers in a satay sauce over a salad, and a pork stew over stir fried noodles, white rice, leafy greens, and topped with a hard boiled egg and shrimp crisps. Like I said, a TON of food. I'm ashamed to say I finished it all. The pork was my favorite. Definitely a meal you can share with someone else. The place is also open late so if you're craving some cheap but delicious Indonesian food after a night of drinking, you're in luck!

Traveling through the Netherlands for a conference, I made a stop for a day in Rotterdam and am so glad I found this spot to have dinner in. I opted for take-away to continue working on presentations in my hotel room. The main location is at the address listed here on Yelp but for take-away I was directed to their smaller store just a few stores down at #53. Unfortunately not knowing much Dutch I was a bit lost with the menu but the gentleman taking my order was very accommodating and I ended up ordering the boneless chicken roti. The food took a while to get out to me but it was well worth the wait. Opening up the mix of cabbage, potato, chicken, and boiled then fried egg with the incredibly savory sauce instantly brought a smile to my face. Delicious, hearty flavor with a side of very tasty, thin roti bread. Everything was perfect! I would have never known how good the Dutch Indonesian food is here if it wasn't for stumbling across this place on Yelp and will now be sharing this insight with everyone I know coming for a visit from the US!

Warung Mini Gado Gado ( Chicken Skewer with steam vegetables + Peanut Sauce) Roasted Chicken with Noodles Euro $8 / $10 No Credit Card 需現金 I simply can eat Gado Gado everyday!! It's like I'm back in Bali again. Temph is flavored and crispy. Chicken is a bit dry but there's peanut sauce ( actually came here 3 times on 3 days of our stay ) 沒想到在這可以吃到這麼當地的印尼料理（有點給他太遠）待了三天去了三次哈 ！也許真的想念峇里島。重點主角就是酥香天貝跟花生醬 。雞肉有點乾但沒事的。哎...想想又餓了！ 下次在 #鹿特丹 一定會再拜訪的！. Will be #wanderlostinfood #為食流浪

Best Moksi Meti everrrr. Don't expect to be seated or get speedy service at your table. You have tomwalk up to the counter and order there. But the food.....uh!

Ordered saoto chicken soup from reading other reviews. You will not regret it! I ordered the large because I was greedy but small should suffice. It comes with a bowl of rice and sauces. The soup itself is flavorful with shredded chicken and bean spouts. Perfect for winter time. You order at counter and seat yourself. Unfortunately they do not accept Apple Pay or visa/mastercards.

Great fast Indonesian food. I walked along the market streets and ended up at Warung Mini. I ordered inside off the English menu, then sat at a wooden table in the cool sunny air to wait. I ordered lamb curry with fried noodles. The sauce was delicious. There was a lot of food! And I washed it down with ginger beer. A very good low budget fast food place.

I am addicted to Warung Mini! Once every two weeks at least I go there, it's so comfortable and relaxing and the food is great! I often take vegetable roti, it's my favorite dish! I tried also the soup and the 'snacks', they are really good too! The restaurant have just been renovated, there aren't many seats and you can't book so during the week end it's quite impossible to have dinner with a group. But no problem, in the week end it's open until 6 in the morning! :)

Never had so much good food in one plate ! It's huge and absolutely worth the money! The only minus is how busy this place is, find a strategy to get yourself a good seat or be patient ;)

Best saoto soep especially on a cold day. Living in Holland I'd make sure to eat here every time I was in Rotterdam the one in Den Haag is a close second but there's just something about this place. Even their roti's are decent but I always went for the soup

never had indonesian food but knowing the connection between the dutch and indonesians. we had to find a restaurant to end our time in holland! this place is on one of the main party streets in rotterdam. it is open late (i think until 1 am?) we went at 9 pm and there were SO many people eating. it is cheap and so delicious. you order at the counter and then have to nab a seat on your own. a waiter will bring the food out to you BUT you need to find a place to sit first. we got the lamb curry (which was absolutely delicious and rich. it reminded me of a satay sauce but way better) the bokchoy was a bit overcooked but i would still order this again. i also would say that the chicken noodle soup was my favorite!! it has crispy wonton wrappers in it. it is light but rich at the same time. we also got the chicken and potato curry with naan. (this naan is not like indian naan but still good). there is not one bad thing i could say about this place. i wish there was a place in the US like this.

Super good, super cheap, no bullshit indonesian food in R-dam. Really liked it and we ate for about 9 euros each. Small seating for about 20 in the restaurant - but many people just take out. No beer there, but there is a SPAR right across the street that has beer; just saying.

Really good Indonesian food (apparently the Netherlands is the best place to get Indonesian food in Europe). The staff were very nice, and the restaurant was very clean. We had chicken skewers with peanut sauce and fried rice on the side, their specialty soup that included chicken pieces and a whole boiled egg (saoto soup), and a deep fried plantain with peanut sauce - all for €15! I shared it with my boyfriend and we were happily full. Would definitely recommend to friends and would come back.
