| - Warung Indonesia D'Eglinton is a newly opened restaurant serving authentic Indonesian dishes. Conveniently located a few minutes away from Eglinton Station. Prices are pretty fair for the portion that you're getting. I dined in, so I can't comment on the portion for take-outs. "Warung" means small family-owned business in Indonesia, and that is what Warung Indonesia D'Eglinton is all about. The restaurant owner, Jaya, is very passionate about food and wants to bring forth the taste of Indonesia to the Yonge/Eglinton neighborhood. There aren't that many options when it comes to Indonesian food in Toronto. Out of all the items, I would recommend getting the set value meal for $12.99, as you have the option of 4 items from a set list, and it comes with steamed rice. For my meal, I opted for the chicken curry spring roll, egg in Balinese sauce, signature fried chicken and sweet and sour beef. The fried chicken was fragrant from the flavorful mixture of spices, and it had a nice crispy texture while moist on the inside.
If you're looking for comfort food to warm yourself from the cold, then get the Chicken Curry Stew. I also enjoyed the spiciness of the sweet/sour beef, as there was a nicely balanced flavor in this dish. Both the Coriander Beef Satay & Chicken Satay with Peanut Sauce were quite good, and I would order a couple more of those. However, the Balinese Chicken Satay was too salty for my taste, so I would recommend dialing down on the sodium. Overall, Warung Indonesia d'Eglinton is a pretty solid restaurant if you're looking for home-cooked Indonesian cuisine.
