"What makes Gado-Gado Cemara stand out from its peers is its peanut sauce. Made from a mixture of peanuts and cashew nuts, it features a dense texture and is very flavourful – sweet, yet slightly savoury."

"The vegetables are fresh, and the peanut seasoning is juicy, sticky, and sweet. It gets even better if combined with Emping and shrimp crackers. Definitely, one of the best Gado-Gado places in Jakarta."

"The Nasi Campur + Gado-Gado (mixed rice with Indonesian style salad) fared much better, a myriad of spicy, sour, crunchy and savoury balanced well with the side serving of Gado-gado, an Indonesian style salad served with peanut sauce. The crispy tempe and salted fish completed the ensemble, which can be best explained as …. ROJAK. =)"

"I think our favourite part of this gado-gado is the sauce, especially because they have a non-spicy version which I love. I drown the vegetables, potatoes, lontong, and keropok in the sauce, and slurp up every single drop!"

"Kafe Betawi has been around so long you tend to take it for granted, and yet you find that everything you’ve been looking for in a proper restaurant (as opposed to a constellation of street vendors) — a gado-gado that would be just like the one in Taman Sari — is right here waiting."
