Just had an incredible anniversary dinner here. The food was wonderful, the environment was cozy and welcoming, and the service was excellent. Can’t wait to come back to try next month’s menu.
I felt like walking into someone’s beautiful home and they fed me delicious meals that I have never experienced before. THIS PLACE IS A MUST. If you never had Indonesian food, please dive into this restaurant. They explain each dish, and you’re riding the wave of amazing flavors. The atmosphere is beautiful and feels like home. The service was also exceptional, I felt cared for. ALL THE FOOD WAS AMAZING I WILL RETURN. Also all the food you get is well worth the price!

Rice & Sambal is a small, intimate restaurant known for its authentic and traditional Indonesian dishes. The atmosphere is cozy with a nice vibe, making it a perfect spot for special occasions and memorable meals. The menu is very shrimp and shellfish-forward, but also offers a variety of vegetarian and vegan options that are well-made and flavorful. Dishes like the eggplant balado, tempe bacem, jackfruit stew, and vegetable fritters showcase the deep flavors achieved through slow cooking and proper preparation. The sambals, including a bright green sambal with lemongrass, add vibrant flavors and serve as perfect dipping sauces. The restaurant also features charcoal-grilled items, such as grilled maitake and Indonesian street corn, highlighting traditional cooking methods. The food consistently impresses with its balance and taste, with many reviewers describing it as some of the best Indonesian food they’ve had outside of Indonesia, tasting “correct” and authentic. The owners are kind and thoughtful, attentive to allergies, and provide detailed information about each course. While the prices are on the higher side, the quality and authenticity justify the cost. Overall, Rice & Sambal is highly recommended for those looking for a genuine Indonesian culinary experience, supporting small businesses and diverse communities. It’s a place that leaves guests full, satisfied, and eager to return.
