Why it matters
Why Sindang Reret is worth your time
Sundanese restaurants with long opening hours are useful to older travellers, who often prefer to eat at regular times rather than queue at peak hours. A kitchen open from 8 am to 10 pm gives room to choose a quieter slot.
It also offers a plain introduction to the local cuisine without the street-stall chaos. As with any unverified menu, vegetarian guests should confirm ingredients rather than assume. Because the entry carries no menu and no photos we could verify, the safest plan is to visit once, ask your questions, and judge the kitchen on the day rather than rely on a line in a guidebook.

How to experience it
Wikivoyage lists Sindang Reret at Jalan Surapati 53 as a mid-range Sundanese restaurant open daily from 08:00 to 22:00. The early opening means it can serve as a breakfast or brunch stop as well as a lunch or dinner one, which helps when a day trip leaves early.
We did not see a menu, so we cannot name dishes. A sensible approach is to tell the staff what you avoid, ask for vegetable and tofu or tempeh dishes with rice, and ask whether the sambal and any vegetable dish are made with shrimp paste or a meat stock.
Surapati is a main road with traffic, so arrange a taxi rather than walking from another sight. Mid-range pricing in the guide means a modest bill for a family, though we give no figure because none was listed.
Plan with confidence
Small checks that make a better meal.
- Tell staff you eat no meat, fish or egg
- Take a taxi, since Jalan Surapati is busy
- Confirm the opening hours before you go
- Ask for a table near the entrance if walking is slow
