Why everyone keeps coming back.
Medan Baru IDD proudly serves authentic Indonesian cuisine in the heart of Tangerang, offering a true taste of Indonesia’s rich culinary heritage. Located conveniently on Jl. M.H. Thamrin No.69, this vibrant restaurant is a must-visit for anyone eager to indulge in traditional flavors with a modern twist. Having stood the test of time for nearly 50 years, Medan Baru’s reputation for delicious, hearty dishes continues to thrive, especially with the recent opening of this stylish new branch in PIK 2.
The menu is a delightful journey through classic Indonesian fare, but the standout item that consistently captures the hearts of diners is their fish head curry. Richly spiced and tender, the curry boasts layered flavors that are deeply comforting and satisfyingly robust – a dish that leaves a lasting impression. Guests also rave about the kepala kakap (snapper head), which is cooked to perfection with fresh, high-quality ingredients that evoke nostalgia and reverence for traditional recipes. Complement your meal with the refreshing es timun, a cucumber-based beverage that perfectly balances the meal’s intensity with its crisp, cool sweetness.
The atmosphere at Medan Baru IDD is welcoming and thoughtfully designed. The decor merges contemporary aesthetics with cultural accents, making it an inviting space that suits both casual lunches and family dinners. Spacious parking and a clean, high-class sanitary environment, including a well-maintained musola, ensure comfort and convenience for every visitor. The attentive and friendly service further enhances the dining experience, making guests feel genuinely cared for as they savor every bite.
While some popular dishes may occasionally run out due to their freshness and the direct supply from the central kitchen, this only speaks to the restaurant’s commitment to quality over quantity. Portions are balanced thoughtfully, like the rice, which pairs well with generous servings of rendang sapi (beef rendang) and the substantial sayur singkong (cassava leaves), ensuring a fulfilling and well-rounded meal.
Whether you’re a longtime fan of Indonesian cuisine or a curious newcomer, Medan Baru IDD offers an authentic, flavor-packed experience that honors tradition while embracing contemporary comfort. It is not just a meal—it’s a heartfelt celebration of Indonesia’s culinary spirit.
