Mbok Jo Ayam Penyet

4 Liem Eng Liong - 2 years ago

a restaurant that has a variety of simple dishes. the place is pretty clean and has a parking lot. Only during this pandemic, the choice of take away instead of eating on the spot is a safe choice. Order 2 kinds of fried chicken and fried gouramy fish are pretty good. the fish is fresh and the chicken is tender. while the sambal and fresh vegetables add to the deliciousness of this dish.

Ayam penyet lombok ijo is the signature dish of this restaurant and named after it.
If you like penyetan (an Indonesia dish with some protein, chicken meat or fish, served with sambal, spicy sauce) then this is the right place to go.
They have various sambal, foods and beverages. Comfortable dining room. But the AC don't always work.

Actually the atmosphere of the inside of this place is much better than the food. There's the nice sound of flowing water and it's rarely ever crowded, but there's always at least one other customer.

Since it's not crowded you would think that your food would come fast but unfortunately it's taken me up to 30 minutes wait to receive my food. So make sure you budget your time when you come here.

Also just to say this is definitely a place for locals. Not to say that a traveler wouldn't enjoy it but just to say the taste of the food isn't spectacular and there's just the very basic food that you can find anywhere on the street. I recommend the penyet and the pecel. Both of those are my favorites here.

Hope you enjoy the food!

Chicken, empal (beef) so tender and tasty. Ordered satay, the peanut sauce very generous, but chilli not spicy enough for me. overall its a nice dining place with reasonable price. One star less because there were some flies flying around while we're eating.

This place offer great local dish with exceptional taste and reasonable price. Their "Ayam Penyet" (30k) can compete anyday with big names such as "Ayam Goreng Soeharti" or "Ayam Goreng Pemuda". But this nice restaurant often seems empty.
