    Fresh Watermelon juice. #singlawangcafe
    Carl N.

    Singkawang Cafe is a small Indonesian restaurant located along Valley blvd. It's located in a plaza connected to a badminton center. They have a vast selection of Indonesian-Thai food as well as drinks. I came to grab a quick supper. I ordered a Chicken Pad Woon Sen and Watermelon juice. Food was okay. Juice was because it's fresh. Service was spot on. Staff were cordial. Plenty of parking. Prices were fair. Overall, it's a nice South East Asian food.

    Covered outdoor, dog friendly, seating

    Singkawang Cafe is located in a plaza across the street from Nick's burgers with parking available. In the plaza itself, there is a hidden badminton gym. I had this restaurant bookmarked for quite some time and finally got to try this restaurant two Saturdays ago. What initially made me bookmark this restaurant on Yelp was for the food itself (I am a big fan of curry laska) and also the outdoor dog friendly seating that also happens to be covered (which is nice when it's sunny). I went inside to let an employee know that we would like to eat outside, while my husband and our little girl dog were outside. The employee brought us menus. After we looked them over, we ended up ordering: #18, Mixed Rice/ Nasi Campur, $16.95 prior to tax- My husband ordered this dish. The dish came with 5 different types of proteins (chicken, crispy pork, Chinese sausage, barbeque pork and a hard boiled egg that is sliced in half) that is served on top of a bed of rice. It also comes with a small bowl of soup as well. I thought the barbeque pork was pretty good and well seasoned and flavored. But I didn't try the other items. My husband liked this dish but thought it was kind of odd that this dish had Chinese sausage because usually he has had that mixed in a dish or a side (such as sticky rice or clay pot rice dishes, etc) and not served like this by itself as a protein. #17 Curry Laksa/ Laksa Kari, $14.95 prior to tax- I ordered this dish and really liked it. But I did find it to be a little too spicy for me, as the spice lingered (I am not much of a spicy eater and my husband thought it was not spicy at all). This dish was was served with rice noodle, tofu, fish cakes and shrimp. I thought the dish was filling and really was a fair share to share. -------------------------------- (Total= $39.25 after tax + tip) Service was friendly and prompt. Our water dish was filled regularly even though we were sitting outside (and the only ones outside). Overall, I enjoyed my meal here. But I do feel that the price might be a little bit more expensive than what I was expecting. But would dine here again with our little girl.

    Indonesian beef soup
    Mitchell L.

    Dined in for dinner on 10/31/25. It was empty and the parking lot was almost full for some reason. I ordered the seafood fried rice and my girlfriend ordered the Indonesian beef soup, but wow the food was delicious and affordable! Most dishes were less than $17 and the portions were big! If you want authentic Indonesian food, this is the spot! If you like spicy, they have it here! Seafood rice: good portions of seafood! 4/5 Indonesian beef soup: super flavorful! 5/5

    3.5 stars for me. Came here with my family. We ordered calamari and fried chicken for the appetizer. The calamari was ok. Fried chicken had a lot of spices, but weirdly didn't have a lot of flavor and wasn't crispy. I ordered the beef ball soup. The flavor was a bit bland. The meatballs and tofu was what I expected. My family ordered a lot of other dishes like the Jump noodles, fried rice, pad see ew, laksa and some others. Most of the dishes needed more flavor, but if you like spicy then it may be good. I am not a big fan of spicy foods. The service was great! The server was very nice and the chef also came out to ask us how everything was. They had a variety of Indonesian snacks which was nice to see.

    I've been going to this place for almost decade and I'm always excited everytime they're adding new menus whether it's seasonal or permanent. The staff are the friendliest and the most accommodating you could ever found. They have some Indonesian snacks available to buy. Parking is plenty in the plaza. It's located next to the badminton indoor court. Three vibes is homey.

    I've been meaning to try more south eastern restaurants and had this saved for a while, just to realize that it was the restaurant connected to the badminton club (labc). None the less, the food was pretty good but I wouldn't say it was the BEST indonesian/thai food I've had. Still a good quick bite to grab if you're in the mood for these flavors

    Stopped by with my mom during lunch time on Saturday, 06/07/25. This place serves my mom's hometown food! Ordered the following: - 1 #16 - Jump Mein = $14.95 - 1 #L12 - 3 Flavors Shrimp and Scallops = $14.95 - 1 Es Cendol = $6.50 SUBTOTAL = $36.40 TAX = $3.82 TIP = $10 TOTAL = $50.22 The food was really good and the menu gave us a bunch of options to choose from. My mom enjoyed her meal however feels like this place is a bit overpriced. This indo restaurant is very authentic; they also sell some indo snacks inside (mini market) which is also overpriced. We also received some complimentary soup and dessert (red bean).

    INDONESIAN CURRY BEEF SOUP/SOTO BETAWI
    Maggie C.

    This place is so damn good! Discovered this place from Peter and Lisa's YouTube video and it did not disappoint. It's a family-owned restaurant with a small market with snacks and other Indonesian goodies. The Choi pan (steamed dumplings) were different but tasty slightly crunchy and flavorful. Our favorite dish was the Nasi Campur (mixed rice). Each meat was cooked to perfection and so tasty. My partner literally said it's one of the best pork bellies he's ever had and all pork bellies should aspire to be that. Get the mix rice for sure.

    Our party of 11 was taken in for dinner close to last call but they were accommodating and served up all our orders very quickly. My mixed rice has a tasty spread of proteins. The crispy pork had the perfect bite- not teeth breaking hard and not too much fat, it was rendered perfectly! Not pictured is the Laksa that was so flavorful, close to the experience I had in Singapore years ago. If you want are craving Indonesian, Singaporean, or Thai food, keep this place in mind!

    Kwetiau Goreng
    Suzi O.

    I enjoyed my lunch at Singkawang Cafe. The kweitiau goreng was good and I loved the fresh in-house made soy milk. There are lots of Malaysian, Chinese and Thai options on the menu. Service was good and the TV had music videos playing.

    Crab meat fried rice
    Emily L.

    o3.14.2o25 Very yummy food, even for to-go. I bet it'll be even be tastier if we dined in. We got the laksa curry with rice noodles, mixed rice aka nasi campur, and crab meat fried rice. The roasted pork were spicy crispy and the fried garlic sauce was still very crunchy even when we got home in a closed container. The laksa curry was really good with a kick of spiciness. Each orders came with eggs so we got to eat some eggs if you know what I mean. Hahaha Definitely plan on trying other dishes here.

    Crab Meat Fried Rice
    Sylvia K.

    Wanted to get take-out on NYE, when I called around 7:30pm , they said they closed early for NYE. So on 1/2, we tried again and got the crab meat fried rice and Nasi Padang. The crab meat fried rice tasted like shrimp paste. Very strong flavor. The Nasi Padang was quite spicy and delicious. Highly recommended this place if you are in town!

    FRIED RICE Curry Laksa
    Grace M.

    still 3.5, i got curry laksa and SKW fried rice. their fried rice was really good, i didn't like the laksa much though. I would prefer to have more flavor in my laksa, it did still taste good but felt like it was lacking something. i also got thai tea (premade so you can't ask for less sweet), still good.

I was craving for some fried bananas so I dropped in to get some. They are located on Garvey Ave within the Vikon Center in Rosemead. This spot used to be a Vietnamese restaurant a very long time ago. It brought back some nostalgia when I walked through the doors. Upon entry, I was greeted by a nice gentleman behind the counter. He may have been the owner not 100% sure though. Good interior seating space. Nice and clean. Lots of windows with great sunlight shining through. Their menu has quite a variety of Thai dishes and some intriguing ones, too. Prices were fair. I usually get my go-to dish which is the Pad Woon Sen (glass noodles) with seafood. This time I got it with just shrimp. Of course, I had to get an order of fried bananas. They make them to order. Just know you're getting them fresh from the fryer every time. I also got one Thai Green Tea drink. Everything from noodles to bananas to drink were very good. I appreciate the 5-6 big shrimps in the Pad Woon Sen. Glass noodles were firm and not mushy. Tomatoes and green onions were fresh. Wok flavor was on point. Good quality dish! I would get it again. As for the fried bananas, they weren't as good as the first time I had them. Don't get me wrong, they were very hot and fresh. Good portions, too. I just think they were thin with the batter and also they probably needed to sit a little bit prior to eating them. Thai Green Tea was refreshingly good. I love drinks with crushed ice! Glad I tried them. Definitely a spot I would return to so I may try their other specialty Thai dishes. Maybe I'll dine-in next time.

Only thing is that the pork from the pad gra pow was a little salty and not as fatty/tender as I'd like. Parking was very easy.

Every time I went to Yoshinoya, I passed by this Thai restaurant in this plaza that I didn't even know existed. So one day, I decided to give it a try.... and I'm so glad I did! What surprised me so much about this place was the price of everything. At $13.99 each for their Pad Thai and Drunken noodles, you are NOT going to find that price anywhere in this area with today's prices lol. Is the food here at the level of President Thai on Rosemead? No. But for the price you're paying, I'm really impressed and the food is still pretty good. At their ~$14 price point, they're also giving their big-chain neighbor, Yoshinoya, a run for their money too. They also have a BOGO free Thai Tea so don't forget to take advantage of that! What I want to harp on and warn everyone about though, is that the restaurant seemed very hot inside. I came at 2:30 p.m. on a Saturday afternoon in the summer and it seemed like they didn't have any AC working. Luckily, I ordered for take-out, but I definitely would not have been comfortable eating in the restaurant. I felt their portion sizes could be a bit bigger. I know I praise their low prices, but maybe that is the small trade-off--I felt those to-go boxes could be filled up a bit bigger! But minor harps aside (at least for me) I highly recommend this place to anyone looking for cheap and fast Thai food. The workers here (seemed like a family?) all seem very friendly and helpful and I encourage everyone to support local small businesses and give this place a try!

When I first arrived, I honestly thought it was closed since it was dark and empty, but it turns out they have a side dining room separate from the main entrance. It's not the prettiest place to sit, so I'll probably stick to takeout in the future, but the food itself is definitely tasty for the price. Here's what I tried this time around: Seafood Pad See Ew - Not the best I've had, but still pretty good. Nice mix of seafood and solid flavor. (4/5) Panang Curry - Very tasty and a generous portion for $13. Creamy, flavorful, and comforting. (4.5/5) Chili Thai Chicken - If you're into fried-style chicken, this one hits. Crispy, a bit oily, and very satisfying. (4.5/5) Mango Sticky Rice - The coconut sticky rice was warm, plentiful, and delicious. The mangoes were on the older side with a bit more bite, though still sweet. Rice: (5/5) | Mangoes: (3.5/5) Overall, I'd definitely eat here again, most likely as takeout. I really appreciated that each entree came with rice instead of charging extra, and the service was very friendly.
