Located in the back of the food court area is the only Indonesian Restaurant I know of in the area. I was immediately intrigued! I stopped there for lunch the other day and tried the Nasi Rendang (a slow-cooked beef dish with rice). I have never had Nasi Rendang before, but I thought it was very good. I particularly liked the spicy sauce that came with it, because it really brightens the dish. The gentleman there was extremely nice and the service was fast and friendly. I would definitely recommend checking it out! We definitely need more restaurants featuring cuisines from other parts of the world in our area.

A rare Indonesian food stall in the food court in Scranton. Food is being served buffet style. Everything is edible. But... nothing stood out. Most dishes share the same spices, making them blended into the same glob. Start with plain white rice. We like the fried fish the best. We just wished the use of salt and spices could be lightened up a bit. Nice couple, good service, give us a pleasant experience.

You always find a gem when you are not looking. This very nice gentleman gestured to show my companion and I the offered special and we are so glad that we did try it. Each food was freshly made and hot. The chicken was absolutely fantastic. The beef was very good and the fish was delicious. Kale dish was delicious as well. The noodle chicken dish was awesome. I would definitely recommend trying this place. The price and product was more than worth it.
