Bali Nusa Indah is an Indonesian Restaurant located in the Hell's Kitchen neighborhood in NYC. There are many Thai restaurants here, so we thought we were trying something different by trying Indonesian. Actually, I found the food we had here very similar to Thai food, so I was disappointed. I was not overly impressed by the quality of the food either. Everything we had was just OK.
Casual - jeans and a t-shirt are fine.
The food is quite affordable - appetizers were around $5, and most entrees were $14.
The service was pretty fast. We were in a hurry to get to a show, and we had no problem meeting our schedule.
The restaurant is pretty small, but there were still a few tables open the entire time we were there.
These were pretty good. They were like fried patties with shrimp and vegetable. I couldn't really tell that they were corn and not potato. They came with a sauce that was a bit sweet. There was also a small salad that was actually quite tasty with a mild sweet dressing.
This was a pretty typical chicken satay with peanut sauce. The salad was the same as the one that came with the corn fritters.
The stir fry was ok. The Chicken was a bit weird with crispy pieces. There wasn't as much vegetables as I would have liked. I liked the bean sauce, but it was very salty.
The curry was not very spicy. It had a nice strong coconut flavour. There were a number of large tofu chunks in here, but otherwise it was fairly liquidy.
