Sep 26, 2026"Good food and good vibe. It's my first time trying Coto Makassar. The soup was not salty at all in the beginning, but there is always salt on the table. Unfortunately I'm not a big fan of sambal tauco, the sourness is too sharp for me. I prefer a normal spicy sambal, but maybe it's just the food culture itself always include tauco. I also arrived at night which not so crowded."

Thick soup with selection of berf meats and other parts and goes well with their Lontong (rice cake). They also served other side dishes and shaved iced. Open 254 hours but expect queueu during busy hours"

The place is very compact, your seat most probably in contact with other people. Their food is as good as you expect it to be. They have pictures of old era, looking at them feels like a walk of memory lane. They say they open 24 hours, so I guess you can visit anytime."
