Great meal. The dishes are shareable so you can try a variety of dishes. Loved the lobster noodles and shrimp burger
cozy and relaxed space. food was delicious but they have very tiny portions, you’d have to order multiples.

One of my favorite restaurants in New York. Service and ambiance are amazing. The food is always perfect. I recommend the scallop Satays which I always pair with the Lobster Noodles.
Also the playlist and music choices add to the atmosphere so well.

Had such a great dinner experience recently. From the aesthetics, to service, and the meal!! I’d definitely come back and try some other items from the menu.
The Lobster noodles were my favorite for sure. Super tasty with the perfect amount of spice.

I adore !
I went there 3 times during my 14 day stay in NYC
Intimate restaurant with subtle decor, We have always been placed in the room close to the bar and not in the back room, a few possible tables in front of the kitchen
You come home and it already smells a little bit like Indonesia, a little discreet incense.
What a pleasure to be in a restaurant where the decibels don't hurt your ears.
We tried lots of things, and we really loved it... the only thing we didn't really like was the cheese dessert
Mimolette that I don't recommend, the chocolate ? cookie ? was really overcooked... Otherwise, the rest with your eyes closed.

Fantastic service and delicious French inspired Indonesian food.
They kept refilling our water glasses (my tell for a quality restaurant) and actively provided new silverware and plates.
Anything the Jean Georges bloodline turns to gold in my humble opinion.
Thanks for a great night ❤️
Parking: Sunday is the best day to find local parking on the street. Can be a challenge but best always is to check the major avenues first

Nah, nothing indonesian about this place except the interior. Even as a fusion, It felt like im being gaslit to think that i'm having indo food. If youre not familiar with indonesian culinary then you'll probably enjoy the meal because it's a french take on the concept of southeast asian food (won't even call it indonesian). And as an indo, I think the biggest joke on the menu was the indomie with lobster. The rendang was more of a gulai than anything. I can go on and on, it's a mess and I'm still quite pissed just thinking about the meal I had.
My guess is that the chef went to bali once on a vacation and thinks that he can recreate the food. If you've seen that one episode of gordon ramsey trying to make pad thai It's basically that but somehow worse.

Great dining spot! Wayan was recommended to us by a friend and it did not disappoint. The chicken satay were really authentic, and the scallop satay blew us away. We also really enjoyed the grilled octopus, the citrus salad. The lobster noodles were tasty and had a good serving of lobster, although the noodles were ordinary. We had the calamansi cocktail which paired well with our meal.
The interior design of the restaurant is also beautiful, perfect spot for a date night!

The food here was fantastic—we really loved 3 out of the 4 dishes we ordered. The drinks were tasty and strong.
The scallops satay and octopus appetizers were perfectly cooked and flavorful, and I definitely recommend giving them a try. The Brazino was crispy and delicious, but the steamed sea bass was just okay, so you can skip that.
Food-wise, I'd give it a solid 4.5/5, but the overall experience? Not so much.
The ambiance and the decor just beautiful and perfect for date night, which is what we were there for. Unfortunately, the waitress kind of ruined part of that for me.
From the moment we sat down, she only addressed my partner the entire night as if I didn’t even exist.
I honestly don’t know what her issue was—whether she was being sexist, racist, or just had a crush on my partner—but she was dismissive to me the entire time. So, to the waitress with the curly mullet, thanks for ruining part of my perfect night

I was hesitant at first to try this kind of food. First look at the menu can be a bit scary if you’re not familiar with what is on it. The staff was so kind and described all the foods to me. They were extra cautious of my peach allergy and made me feel totally comfortable.The dimly lit atmosphere is very romantic. I enjoyed my whole experience And I’m Glad I stepped out of my comfort zone because the food was phenomenal.

This restaurant was ok. I have some food allergies and one reason we came here is because they advertise being able to accommodate the allergies. I mis understood and thought I would have several options when in facts I had very few. The portion sizes are extremely small and it is very expensive. I did not like the taste of the crab fried rice that I got and I am not sure if it was because it had to be modified for my allergies. It was tasteless and very fishy. The hamache was very delicious. The place is beautiful and has a nice atmosphere. I would have ordered more but the taste of my dish and lack of options made it so I wasn’t interested. I honestly don’t think this place is anything special and there are better places in NYC for the price.
