Reviews for Nusa Dua [N2] Kitchen & Bar in Toronto, ON
It was my first time trying Indonesian food in Toronto and I thoroughly enjoyed it. I tried the nasi goreng Jakarta and the... laksa noodle, both were delicious. The staff was super friendly, and their patio was a great little Oasis on Bathurst to hangout in. I look forward to ordering here and visiting again. My only critique was wished the portions were bigger, because it wasso tasty I ate everything :) Read more
We requested Indonesian spicy, and they delivered! The portion of nasi goreng was generous to our standard. Nasi goreng bebek,... which is the duck fried rice was not to be missed. It's not on the menu yet. The soda gembira was also reminded us of how weused to have it back home. Everything was well seasoned! Read more
Service was prompt. Food was slow though. However, I was forewarned ahead of time which was good. Ordered the Rica Rica Wings... and the Laksa Noodles. I would recommend skipping the wings - these are severely underseasoned. I don’t personally like foodto be heavy on salt or flavours, and I still found it to be flavourless. The aroma of the spices can be smelt on the chickenskin, so the lack of flavour is likely due to the wings not having been marinating in the sauce for long, or if the sauce wasonly brushed onto the wings while grilling - either way, this means none of this flavour has had the opportunity to infiltrateinto the skin/meat. I did ask for salt, but still found myself unable to finish the wings. For 15.99, I expect more than wingsthat taste boiled. The Laksa Noodles were decent. Came with a lot of tofu/shrimp, some chicken, but no boiled egg asadvertised on the menu AND also typically served traditionally. Flavours of the noodle sauce were good. Shrimp were overboiled- leaving them chewy and unmistakenly with the flavour of having been frozen for a long time. Otherwise, there was a decentamount of protein in this noodle bowl. I would recommend trying other items on the menu that the chef might be better at…Iwas secretly hoping this restaurant would be the one that could fill my Indonesian food cravings, disappointed that it wasn’tbetter.

So great to have another Indonesian dine-in option in the King West area. Got the Nusa Dua cocktail, Nusa Duning (rice) and Mie... Goreng (noodles). Fav was the rice dish. A lot of different flavours and textures. Not sure if this was the Thursday specialbut all cocktails were $9.99. Staff was polite and helpful. Super friendly and kept checking up to make sure we weregood. This restaurant is tucked into a quiet spot on Bathurst so doesn't get as busy as the main street, which is nice. Theyhave a cute and spacious patio too, and TVs up indoors to watch games. Read more
Haven't tried many Indonesian restaurants before and was excited to check out this new spot. Location is easy to get to and in... a popular area in King West. The menu has a good variety of different options to satisfy whatever appetite you might have. Ido recommend asking the staff for suggestions as many items are not found in other restaurants. For this visit my dining crewof four got a family style meal were we shared some starters and main dishes. My favorite dishes I tried were the Dadar Jagung,Tempe Mendoan, Rica Rica wings and Gado Gado. The Dadar Jagung were pan fried indonesian style corn fritters. Flavours weregood and you get pieces of corn kernels with each bite. Tempe Mendoan are fried battered tempeh with green onion. These had anice crispy texture and well seasoned. The Rica Rica wings were cooked perfectly with juicy meat and tasty Indonesianseasonings. Gado Gado is a vegan friendly dish with bean sprout, potato, lettuce, tofu with cashew peanut sauce. This is amust try even if you aren't vegan. This dish had a good mix of different ingredients with a savoury sauce. Other dishes we gotwere Sate Lilit (mixed chicken satay), Sate Ayam (chicken skewers with peanut sauce and white rice), Nasi Goreng Rendang (eggfried rice with beef), and Laksa (malaysian style curry noodle soup with shrimps and chicken). These dishes tasted good too butweren't as memorable as the other ones for me. You definitely want to try out this place if you are interested in trying someIndonesian food. The staff are very friendly and also they have interesting drinks that goes well with the food. I wouldrecommend going with friends & family and share items. Also they make their own hot sauce with shrimp paste and is a must try. Read more

We had the Summerlicious dinner meals for my birthday and it was one of the best birthday meals that I have ever had,... hands-down! Appetizers rojak and duck taco are parties in the mouth. I had hundreds of bowls of Laksa back home before and thisis the best that I have ever had. Rendang did not disappoint. Coffee Luwak was remarkable and worth the extra bucks for coffee.Portions are great, we were super full! Service was fast, staff are very friendly, courteous and very knowledgeable. Puttingthis in the list of regular go-to places! Read more
