I had dinner with a friend at this place and ordered Ayam Bakar and Sate Ayam. The Ayam Bakar was a little tough, but the taste was average. The sate ayam was tender, but it was a bit too sweet for my liking.

Today, I went to this restaurant with my son and my helper; our number was 3. We ordered 2 ayam penyet and 1 gado-gado . The service is very bad because they missed our order and were very late in preparing it. The staff is not good because, even though they prepared our food very late, they never apologized or said "sorry." What's more, one of the staff shouted at me when the food were ready , "Kaka, take your order, number 3."
The gado-gado tastes okay, but the ayam penyet is really salty. I am not sure if the ayam is fresh or overcooked . Most drinks are out of stock; they just offered me canned drinks or mineral water.
Very Disappointed 😔

Tried the Ayam Penyet with rice and noodles — both were delicious! Chicken was crispy outside, tender inside, and the sambal was super spicy and fragrant. Love the crunchy crackers and soup on the side too. Great portion and authentic Indonesian flavour!

Food was fairly good. Ordered the Geprek. Thought it would not be spicey but boy was I wrong. It was super spicey but nice cos it provided the Kick. Usually easy to get a seat but the day I went it was crowded.

Good authentic food. Self service but staff was polite helpful and patient. Deco is Indonesian simple modern great place for a quick fix for Indonesian food. Halal as well.

A bit inside in the mall but perfect location if you want to have some food with great ambiance and peace.
Very neat and clean, tables n chairs have decent space in between each other.
Service staff was very welcoming and served everyone with professional behaviour and a smiling face.
The food is awesome, tasty, good quantity and specially presentation is great.
A lady worker was constantly cleaning the floor and tables. Some of the desperate tourists purposely used their rare gate to pass through the walk way from the mall to the adjoining street, and left the door open but staff did not say them any thing and politely went n close the door.
A must visit and highly recommended place to taste halal food in the downtown Singapore.
You will not find easily such a budget food with high ambiance, taste and Halal in Downtown area.
