Wayang Restaurant Halal

Got recommended this place by my coworker and have to say this has become one of my top 10 restaurants in the city now. I make it an effort to tell other people about this restaurant or take them here because it’s just that good. The food is excellent. I’ve had Mie Goreng, Nasi Bungkus, Salted fish bean sprouts salad, and Nasi Kuning Komplit. Mie Goreng is my favorite/ go-to dish. Such deep flavors! I also love the Empal Gepuk beef, which you can get separately or with the rice plates. Service is good and quick. Very chill casual ambience. They also offered free soup by the counter when I went, which was tasty & refreshing. Honestly I have a lot of appreciation for this spot and hope nothing but the best for them!

We had such a satisfying meal at Wayang Restaurant Halal. Everything was flavorful, generously portioned, and clearly made with care. The nasi kuning komplit was beautifully presented, with fragrant turmeric rice and a mix of sides that balanced each other well, especially the egg and perkedel, which stood out. The sambal mercon absolutely lives up to its name: pedas, rich, and addicting. It woke up the palate without overpowering anything and paired perfectly with the rice. The satay kambing was tender and juicy, with a nice bit of char and a savory-sweet peanut sauce that brought everything together. The ayam nasi goreng felt like comfort food at its best, well-seasoned chicken and fried rice that had that nostalgic, homestyle flavor. We’ll definitely be back to try more, this spot brings the warmth and depth of Indonesian food in every bite!

Avocado Juice so so good!And soto betawi and their ayam kremes also really tasty,come there all the way from OC and during their break & the owner so nice to let us in eventho its their break time(they close during 3-5 pm) grateful to taste the food since we came up long way from oc

We've been by this place a few times and didn't realize there's an Indonesian restaurant right next door. The sign isn't that big outside, or it's not visible enough for people to see when driving. We tried a few different Indonesian dishes. Some were really good, and some weren't. Lamb satay is really good. It's super juicy and tender with sweet soy sauce and chili. The second best dish was mee goreng - it's like a fried egg noodles with vegetables and you can choose from chicken, beef, or shrimp. The third one is stinky bean with shrimp. It's really tasty with spicy sauce. The place is super clean, and the food is cooked right when you order it. We ordered Nasi kuning with some chicken and rendang, but the chicken wasn't that great. It just had a bit of crunchiness on top. Right now, they're giving out free lemonade and 15% off, and on weekends, they're giving out free sweet and sour soup. Overall, the place and the waitress are pretty good, but they do charge a fee for using a credit card. So, make sure you bring some cash with you to avoid that fee. I'd really appreciate it if they could let us know ahead of time if there is a card fee when using it. We'll definitely be back for different dishes next time.

4 stars since the parking was street parking in a busy road and only for an hour… otherwise, service was good and authentic Indonesian food. The kangkong was so spicy, i suggest asking for milder version if unable to tolerate. It’s authentic taste and full of flavor. The salted fried rice was tasty. The es cendol lacked jackfruit though. They offered 15% discount for that promo month. If only the place is near to me, I would definitely come often but it’s in LA unfortunately. Bonus- only Halal Indonesian food I have found so far in SoCal

Delicious authentic indonesia food. We got tempe mendoan, but it was cooked a little too welldone for our liking. Non theless it still delicious and crunchy. Ayam rempah was delicious but a little bit bland. Crunchy but not dry. Nasi bungkus was java style, a little on the sweet side. Indonesian cooking at the back. They also got some nastar and cookies on the side. Perfect.

Driving all the way from north to the south using i5, and decided to take a break somewhere at Alhambra and found Indonesian cuisine. Got a try lamb satay and fried singkong, it’s so good, Wanna try all the menu, but I am too much full. The only thing my concern is to find where to park, is only road side parking available and it’s limited to 1-2 hours. I’m not from Alhambra, so I don’t know around. If anyone know around let us know where to park near by.

Excellent food and the owner is nice & friendly. We live in Las Vegas and Authentic Indonesian food just does not exist there. We checked many places around the Los Angeles area and found Wayang to offer a true Indonesian food experience unlike most of the other places that serve fusion. We ordered Nasi Kuning Komplit and were not disappointed! The flavors and spices were great. Exactly what you would expect for a small hole in the wall restaurant. 10/10 would go again.
