    chicken rendang
    Eric K.

    The lady that works in here is super friendly. I love the way you can order from your phone and the order goes through right away. I really loved the flavor of the pangsit goreng it's a great appetizer. I'd get it as a meal and order egg rolls too next time. The lamb sataay had great flavor. The chicken rendeng was okay not my cup of tea but the rice was really good.

    I love SE Asian cuisine. Indonesian, Singaporean, Thai... Thats why I love this place. Fried chicken - Crispy outside juicy and flavorful inside. Laksa - legit. Flavor is really good and authentic. I love the noodle texture. Beef tripe stir fry noodle - My favorite dish of all. The flavor is so good, again excellent noodle texture. Hainan chicken rice - I didn't try it, the person who did said it's average. Fried rice - I like the beef better than shrimp but I forgot how good or bad they were. Didn't have too much. Fried curry wonton - I actually thought it was very interesting. Flavorful curry inside the fried wonton. People love it, I'm ok.

    We were in the area and picked this place to have lunch here, and it did not disappoint! Ambiance: 5/5 It is located next to a supermarket. The restaurant looks small but it's actually spacious inside! The inside is decorated very nicely, and bathroom was clean. Service: 5/5 Staff were incredibly nice, polite, and efficient. They were so so sweet too. Food: 4/5 Laksa noodle soup - Mild spiciness! Coconut-flavored broth was soooo tasty, and the noodles were cooked really well. Chicken noodle soup - Broth was light and tasty. I personally loved the taste of lemongrass, and the chicken was so tender!

    This little hole in the wall is so pretty and clean inside!! They are constantly moving keeping the place clean and ready for the next guest. We had the chicken laksa, beef, lamb, and chicken satay, and the nasi goreng beef. Oh! And I can't forget the pangsit goreng. Those were excellent! I could go just to eat those! Super flavorful, the insides were tender with a nice little crunch. The satays were all delicious! The lemon grass was paired nicely with the peanuts... I liked them all with the different meats! The beef rice (nasi goreng beef ) was so good! I would order that again for sure! The chicken laksa was good, the flavor reminded me of pad thai, it was good. All in all a delicious spot!

    Barzar Eatery is a hidden gem in Vacaville serving Southeast Asian cuisine. With so few places offering Indonesian, Malaysian, or Singaporean food in the area, it's such a treat to have Barzar around! This was my second visit with my first was back in 2024. I still remember how excited I was to see Laksa on the menu back then, and it did not disappoint. On this trip, I ordered the shrimp mee goreng and beef rendang, and both dishes were amazing! The mee goreng had that perfect balance of sweet, spicy, and savory flavors with a nice smoky wok hei. The beef rendang was rich and tender, pairing perfectly with the turmeric rice. Also a bonus is you're served yummy shrimp chips after ordering!! My group and I loved everything so much, we're already looking forward to our next visit. One thing that's been consistently great on both visits is the service. Food was served quickly! Also, the hostess, possibly the owner, is so warm and attentive, checking in on every table with genuine care and enthusiasm.

    I have been wanting to try Indonesian food for the longest time & finally had the chance to at Barzar Eatery. Went with the Beef Rendang, Beef Satay, Pangsit Goreng, Shrimp Fried Rice, & Ayam Fried Chicken. Everything was very good. My favorites were the Beef Rendang & Beef Satay. The Beef Satay was probably the best Satay i've ever had & the rendang was nice and tender and paired well rice. Very friendly hostess and all the food came out hella fast! Highly recommend. Will definitely come back to try other menu items.

    I arrived close to closing @230pm so I didn't wait long for a table ( approximately 10tables). But after I received my dishes, I can see the place easily filling up! Food was tasty, fresh and well portioned! I ordered the follow dishes: 1)Shrimp Laksa (Malaysian), coconut broth w/ spices was so comforting w/ generous amount of prawns ( w/head. 2) Mee-Goreng (Singaporean) w/ the shrimp-paste and sweet -savory soy sauce taste and w/ bit of spicy made the noodle experience so satisfying! 3) Beef Rendang ( Malaysian) rich and creamy beef stew! Meat was tender and enjoyed it w/ white rice ( arrived too late for tumeric rice ). Overall first -experience: Staff were friendly and efficient; always checking-in. It's cozy and comfortable dine-in made eating a Malaysian ( and SouthEast Asian) cuisine quite memorable.

    Having grown up in Indonesia, I have a high standard when it comes to Indonesian food. It's not often that I find dishes in restaurants that truly compare to what I enjoyed back home. That's why I was pleasantly surprised by the food at this restaurant--it was delicious. We started with complimentary prawn chips. While the texture was a bit unusual--denser and grittier than the light, airy chips I'm used to--the flavor was still spot on. We also ordered the pangsit goreng, which was just okay. I wasn't a fan of the subtle curry flavor in the filling--it didn't quite work for me. For my main entrée, I ordered the seafood laksa which came with thin rice noodles, and it completely exceeded my expectations. The shrimp coconut broth was rich, flavorful, and had just the right amount of spice. The bowl included three jumbo prawns, which were tasty but still had their shells on, making it a bit inconvenient to peel them. It also came with fish cakes and tofu puffs, which added great texture and variety. Overall, this noodle soup was absolutely delicious--I would 100% order it again next time I'm in the area. The service was excellent. The staff were friendly, and although I'd heard that service here can be slow, that wasn't our experience--our food arrived fairly quickly. The ambiance was another highlight. The restaurant was fully air-conditioned, which was perfect on a hot day like today. Inside, it was clean, well-maintained, and had a tidy, welcoming feel.

    Came here after a day trip in Davis, and was fortunate to get a seat right away. The restaurant space is small, so I saw that seating filled up quickly. Service was great, and the owner is a friendly lady who runs the whole show. You get complimentary shrimp chips upon seating, and I tried the Laksa and Beef Rendang. The Beef Rendang was very flavorful and the turmeric rice is a must-have. I did notice they ran out and had to serve white rice later on, so go there early. The laksa was also good with a bit of spice, so be aware of that. Overall a decent place if you're in the area and craving Southeast Asian food.

    Wow!! This restaurant has been open for a bit. We saw the rave reviews and decided to finally try it. It's AMAZING! While the dishes are things we are unfamiliar with, we are familiar with delicious food. There is a lady who has been there both times for our visits. She is a real sweetie. She has treated us like VIPs and has spent time talking to families with little kids making everyone feel welcome. The food. My goodness. It is really something special. We've been twice and have tried different things. Both times, we have been delighted by our selections. I think vegetarians could find plenty to eat here. I can't remember everything we have eaten there. I remember trying Beef Rendang, Hainanese Chicken, Shrimp Fried Rice and Veggie Stir Fry. I think there is something there for everyone. If you are adventurous, you must try this place. Truly unique! We've eaten at the restaurant twice. Though it looks like you order at the counter, if you want to eat in, the lady will come take your order at the table. It's been busy each visit, but there is plenty of seating and we have never had to wait. Cute decor, delicious food and attentive service!

    There are not too many authentic Malaysia food nearby, Barzar Eatery is an outstanding restaurant. This was the first time we tried there despite they opened for 2 years. We tried a few of their popular items- satay, rendang chicken and laksa. They were all very delicious. All items were little spicy tho so be prepared for that. They also gave us complimentary shrimp chips! Yum. I love the chicken dishes since the chicken were tender and juicy. Laksa was good portion with seafood like shrimps, clam, fish cake, quail eggs, tofu! The soup tasted so good!!! Will definitely go back to try more dishes.

    Barzar Eatery was an unexpected hit I discovered during a recent visit to Vacaville this past Friday. Usually, when I venture this far out from the Bay Area, I assume the options for good Asian food will be limited. However, Barzar completely proved me wrong in the best way possible. My wife and I stopped by for dinner close to when they were closing and the restaurant was still incredibly busy. We waited around at the counter waiting to be seated, but as a few other reviewers have noted, it looks like you seat yourself and order directly from the QR code on the table. We ended up ordering two appetizers and a main dish to share. This was my first time trying pangsit goreng--Indonesian fried dumplings filled with beef. Each piece was beautifully wrapped, and the outer shell had a satisfying crunch. While the beef filling looked like it might be dry, it was actually moist and flavorful, with a strong savory onion profile that really stood out. The other appetizer we tried--the chicken satay--was easily one of the best versions I've had. It tasted like they used chicken thighs, which made the meat especially tender. The cook was spot-on: the chicken slid off the skewers effortlessly. The peanut sauce was thick and nutty, with just the right amount of richness. I liked it so much I ended up spooning it over rice later that evening. For our entree, we went with the Hainanese chicken, and it's honestly one of the best preparations I've had anywhere. The chicken was incredibly soft and perfectly chilled, just as it should be. The ginger scallion sauce paired beautifully with it. My only small critique is that the rice was a touch dry, but the turmeric flavor was excellent, and I loved the crunchy peanuts served alongside. If you're in this part of Vacaville, I would highly recommending stopping by Barzar Eatery for a delicious meal.

I'm indonesian who grew up here in the US and even I know this is not good Indonesian food. The beef dish that they call rendang is NOT rendang. It doesn't even have the taste of rendang. We also ordered ayam sambal sereh which came with two sad overcooked chicken breasts. The topping had lemongrass in it, which made it somewhat interesting but it was not pleasant to eat the overcooked chicken. What's ironic is that this was the order that they forgot and had to make last minute. I would not recommend this place to anyone interested in trying Indonesian food. This is not Indonesian food.

The host even placed the curry puffs the star and centre of the photo he sent to the neighbours.
