What People Are Saying About Angin Mamiri

This family-run Indonesian restaurant emphasizes the cuisine, not the decor, which is sparse and simple. Grandma helms the kitchen with her daughter, and other family members work the crowd in a small dining room splashed with lime green walls and a few glittery birds. Martabak telor, an egg roll-like appetizer stuffed with ground beef, eggs and three different types of onions, dishes up cozy comfort. Similarly, mie goreng, a pile of egg noodles stir-fried with several types of soy sauce and bell peppers, is just like mom's cooking--if mom was Indonesian--satiating in a generous, no-frills…
The Details on Angin Mamiri
Know Before You Go:
The restaurant only seats 30, so be sure to make dinner reservations in advance (same day is fine). If you're coming with a large party (10 or more), then placing your orders in advance of arrival will allow the kitchen to serve you in a more timely manner.
When to Go:
Weekday lunch, especially between 12pm and 2pm, is a great time to experience the restaurant sans waits.
What to Drink:
The BYOB policy means planning ahead. Pick up the goods at California Food & Liquor (6343 North California Avenue) to ensure you enjoy your meal with the right accompaniment. In general, beer pairs wonderfully with the rich Indonesian food.
