Mini 53 in Rotterdam Centrum

Ik kom hier regelmatig een saoto soep eten en het is gewoon goed veel kip en groenten met een heerlijke bouillon een kommetje rijst met 2 soorten sambal en dat voor een schappelijke prijs euro 6,50 vertel mij maar waar in Rotterdam ik voor dit geld kan lunchen. De jongens achter de balie zijn zeer klantvriendelijk en beleefd. Voor mij een prima restaurant op een top locatie

We get food here every week with our office. Friendly staff and above all very tasty food.

Yesterday I bought nasi on King's Day, the food was expensive +50 cents for a plastic bag, nasi was not nasi, there were no vegetables in it, 1 piece of chicken chopped in the middle, 2 pieces of pork and that for 15 euros. The pom sandwich was also unacceptable. More chicken fillet than the pom was so terrible that I threw it in the trash, it was inedible, I will never go there again!!

Just got a bara chicken curry. Order took 20 minutes.. This was downright the worst bara of my life. I opened the package and it was already soaked in oil. I press the bara, was it as crispy as the foil itself?!! The worst thing is that it was completely absorbed with frying fat. Your bara used to be great, but I will never go here again. Just really gross.

This was our first time trying Surinamese food and we loved it :))

Generous portions and many vegetarian options

Tasty food, relaxed atmosphere Don't expect friendly service.

A household name in Rotterdam for years. Best sauto ever. Always packed and busy.

Excellent food and service that is actually more efficient than it might seem. Huge portions!

I come here regularly, and even though it is sometimes very busy, I always receive excellent service. If there are no more tables available, you can order in advance and you will be assigned a table if one becomes available. Friendly people, nice atmosphere, good prices and always good food. I especially recommend the vegetarian roti. In short, one of my favorite places in Rotterdam

Delicious food! On a busy Friday evening, where allocating a seat seemed like quite a task in itself. We looked forward with great anticipation to the orders placed. Well, it exceeded our expectations! Generous portions and delicious taste. The customer friendliness of the staff present made the visit to Warung Mini complete!

Ordered from minibezorgd.nl. After 1.5 hours still nothing. After calling 3 times I finally got someone on the phone. Was then immediately put on hold. When I spoke to the employee, he indicated that the food could only be picked up.

Amazing saoto soup! Absolutely legendary bara!!! 🤩 And all that they serve here is recommendable. It's always busy, but the service is fast!

Always well-filled sandwiches and, above all, fast service. Gets busy quickly during lunch, but you get your meal quickly.

The chicken curry sandwich could not be called a chicken curry sandwich. The chicken was just dry... dry people come onnnn. Expectations were higher! Atmosphere and service was excellent the people are nice though.

Ordered 2 dishes. I had the nasi chicken myself, it was tasty. My wife had a stuffed bara with chicken curry. The bara tasted very strange and not like a real bara, it was more like a kind of oliebol with pulled chicken. There was little taste and my wife had stomach complaints afterwards.

Ordered a large saoto soup for 2 people. First of all, I find it disappointing that everything is already in the soup, except the rice. As a Surinamese takeaway shop you have to know that you put everything neatly in a container or bag next to it. Very unfortunate, because it made the bean sprouts very soft and soggy. And then the taste... wow! Really dirty, sorry. I don't know any other word for it. It's so salty that your kidneys will almost burst with misery! I will never order sauto soup from you again, because this is really NOT possible!

The place offers a great variety of food with many options. If you are not familiar with the dishes or you do not have recommendations,you probably need a lot of time to check the menu. Almost everyone that day took the soup as I did. With the small portion I felt more than satisfied. I would come back to try more dishes! I totally recommend it. The indoor though is quite dark, more for winter days!

Always delicious chicken curry sandwich, Nasi, daweth😋😍

AHH I miss Suriname What I wish I could get everything. I got a large bami chicken and a nasi chicken and also the fried yuca with sailfish. This was all very tasty. The bami was tastier than the nasi. The salt fish was okay. Environment This was a rather small restaurant for the busy and popular place! Luckily I was quickly seated as I went and didn't have a wait. Niceness of the staff Very nice staff, explaining the menu to me and also patient with us as we decide on what to order. Dollar It was decently priced, I don't remember. It is the taste that mattered! Yes I would definitely return

Vega Roti was disappointing. Again! Even the Green Beans were tasteless. Potatoes were almost mashed and so on. What a drama tent this has become. Friendly people, but I ate here.

I had never had Surinamese food before, and this blew me away. Everything was delicious! There were plenty of vegetarian options. The tempeh was some of the best I’ve ever tasted. This place is buzzing, and for good reason, so go early.

**Warung Mini** in Rotterdam is a go-to spot for delicious, authentic Surinamese food. The flavors are rich, the portions are generous, and the dishes always hit the spot—especially the roti and saoto soup. If you’re craving comfort food packed with spice and tradition, this is the place to be. That said, the service could be friendlier and more efficient, and the interior could use a refresh to match the quality of the food. It’s a bit no-frills, but at the end of the day, it’s all about the amazing flavors. Definitely worth a visit for the food alone!

A very nice place! When you enter here you immediately see how popular this place is. When you finish the food you will know why :)

Tasty food for an affordable price. Not intended for extensive eating, but Surinamese dishes

The food was flat and disappointing, not recommended for Suriname people hence 2*

Delicious bakkeljouw sandwiches, chicken curry, etc.

Delicious food, too many tasty meals and sandwiches!

Delicious food, atmospheric, no, but that's not what you come for. Wonton soup delicious, full of meat too

I'm not one for reviews, but I had to say this. Warung mini has deteriorated a lot and the food is no longer what it used to be. I couldn't even enjoy my salt meat sandwich. The salt meat was tough and difficult to chew. And I couldn't enjoy it with roasted chicken either. Too bad about this.

Food delicious. Great portion size ! You won’t leave hungry ! Pulled chicken Roti delicious

Never had such a bad salt meat, tjauwmin moksi meti and bakabana sandwich before. Salt meat was dry, tough, hard! Tjauwmin mosksi meti didn't taste right at all. And speaking of the bakabana... it can be quite annoying... hard and tough.

Great Surinamese food, nicely spiced, they have options for sharing a meal for 2, quick service

The food is often delicious here. The sauto soup (Javanese chicken soup) is highly rated at this restaurant. Chicken spring roll is also delicious. All the dishes we have eaten there so far have been super tasty.

Delicious. Absolutely recommended.

Bara Kip was great, a nice low-key place

I visited here in 2017 when I was backpacking in the Netherlands because I stayed at the King Kong hostel nearby. This place absolutely saved my palate after weeks of deep-fried seafood (with mayo), fries (with mayo/peanut sauce and onion), and many hash joints. I still remember I got the nasi goreng and chicken sate, and they were absolutely godsends, especially after a long time of having the flavour I was not the biggest fan of (mayo). I remember I brought a kiwi with me for this meal, and the flavour also blew her mind as she hadn't had anything like this in her adventure in the Netherlands. I'll for sure visit the Netherland again and come to warung mini.

They did not update their opening hours on Google which was really frustrating as we walked 20 minutes just to eat here (we attempted to visit on 30 December).

Tasty soups, good food 😃. Would be even better if they delivered to your home ☺️

This is by far our favorite soato soup! Definitely a recommendation for everyone!

I am a regular customer of mini denhaag. Their saoto is delicious. But I tried it in Rotterdam and was deeply disappointed. The chicken meat seems to be ground, lots of bean sprouts and you only taste salt in the water. No taste.

Always delicious food! Sometimes to take away, sometimes to eat on the spot, but it never disappoints. Just don't find the terrace very pleasant.

Always had good saoto here in the past, but last week's (October 31) was very disappointing. I came to Rotterdam from Utrecht specifically to get saoto here. The broth did not taste at all how it should taste, it was very dark and so salty that it was simply not responsible to continue eating if I want to preserve my kidneys. Then you are stuck with 3 large saoto that were not cheap. Really a shame and I will never stay here again.

Tasty and affordable. Often busy.

Warung mini has deteriorated so much. Really a shame! Ate there again yesterday after years! And you taste and see that nothing is fresh anymore! The soato was so salty and had a bad taste that I literally took 1 bite, just like my family! Very unfortunate

Hadn't been there in years. Different owners it seems. They need to go back to how things were years ago.

Food was good. In addition to nasi with chicken, I also ordered telo bakkeljauw with trie. A telo cod is 6.50, but with trie it was suddenly 13 euros. I think that is very expensive, I thought they had made a mistake, but not so. Last time I ordered it.

Vegetarian roti (€10) and vegetarian tempeh sandwich (€3.50) were super tasty and cheap, staff was friendly and there was nice music :)

Delicious, if you want Surinamese food, eat or get it here. Nice and authentic, even how it works when you eat here is authentic.

Old meat, dry, tasteless. Bami lukewarm from the microwave. It seems like food is being recycled, it looked like someone had already bitten into a piece of bacon. Roasted bacon was also bone dry and definitely not roasted. Chicken satay the same: dry and old. Moreover, not seasoned. Baka Bana also dry very thick batter and not ripe banana. Leave food alone. It used to be better, but we will never come again. We are half Surinamese and know better. Not recommended!

Friendly employee! The saoto is tasty, I didn't like the bara chicken curry and chicken curry sandwich. They were very dry.

Be careful, it’s ULTRA filling! Here is what I got when ordering a dish + their specialty (plantain banana with peanut sauce) So as much as the specialty was good, the dish was really average or even mediocre (the fried rice in particular had a weird smell of not being fresh and reheated, the same for the meat, I'm crossing my fingers I won't get sick...) I still give 4 stars in relation to the price, the speed of the service and the friendliness of the welcome

It was busy but fun, I only ate a Bakkeljauw sandwich. so it doesn't take me long to give a good opinion.

Great experience w/ bami goreng lamb !

We will definitely do it again.

Too bad you get so little, paid a lot for little food, next time I'll stick to the souto soup in the building next door, it's always tasty and so is the telo.

Best bara chicken curry in town!

The food was nice but simple things I tried to order and they don't have like french fries, ice or lemon... Kinda disappointed but good food 👌

I had the yuca with the shredded codfish as starter. It was the first time I had this and was pleasantly surprised that it was quite good. It was newly cooked as well, the yuca was crispy outside and soft and hot. There were 3 sauces that were complimentary. One was really spicy, the other 2 were good. Sweet soy sauce I think for the other one. The dish was fried rice with soy sauce chicken, sausage slices and egg. Interesting but really quite good. Portion size was good for 2 people. Very friendly service. I sat outside, they had a lot of tables and seating outside the restaurant.

Warung Mini used to be one of the best afhaa Javanese honor houses. I have lived in Rotterdam all my life and it certainly used to be great. Now it is less, the prices have risen enormously and the food is much smaller in terms of portions. If I had to honestly recommend the best Javanese takeaway, I would go to Middelandstraat Warung Melatie topper of Rotterdam at the moment, prices are favorable and large portions. As an example, the goelung goelung, which are rolled pink pancakes with coconut in them, are 3 euros at warun mini and 1.50 at warung melatie, the same size and are delicious at warung melatie. Dear Rotterdammers, go to Warung Melatie. that's my honest opinion

The saoto soup is unsurpassed!!

I’m from Italy and visit this little restaurant that was recommended. Very busy place but you have to order at the counter. So busy but those guys still recognise you were you sit Thank you guys

The saoto soup was brutally good and the sandwich arrived after less than a minute...great!

Mi lobing dangerously!! worth repeating. Received good service from the gentleman behind the counter. He gave me good advice based on my allergens. I'll be back soon. soso lobi

Very bad service. Waited 20 minutes for food, then politely asked how long it would take, to which an employee responded very rudely. It is certainly not customer friendly anymore. Don't go there anymore, it's not like it used to be.

Best Saoto soep ever. One of my favourite restaurants in Rotterdam.

Delicious food for a reasonable price. I imagined myself back in Su again!

It was my first time eating Surinamese food, and it was very delicious!!

We have been customers here for years. Ordered the same today as normal. A portion for €17 normally comes in two containers, rice separately. Everything was now mixed in 1 container. This was reported to the owner, but he did not want to do anything with it. Lost a loyal customer.

Ordered nasi yesterday, delicious and, above all, the friendly staff was enough for me to feel good.

Always fresh, always cozy, always delicious food.

Best flavors you can find in this category. My favorite for years.

Great food for a great price (great price for Rotterdam, which is expensive). As a south american my wallet hurts in this country, this restaurant is the best food for the 12€ price range I've seen so far

Ordered food here for my birthday! I've never had such a bad meal on my birthday! Nasi rames so called Special €20, just paid for two satay, small bit of meat...very meager. Warung Mini is no longer what it used to be. I won't be coming back here again

Extremely busy during the Summer Carnival. Despite the crowds, smooth delivery of orders. The quality of the food was good. One of the better Suri/Javanese restaurants in Rotterdam.

Food and ambient is amazing. Service could be better though.

moksi meti was disappointing but the baka bana (fresh and crispy) and veggie roti were nice

They were still good 10 years ago. If someone says that this is still tasty... then it is 9 out of 10 Dutch people who do not know the taste.

Mini restaurant but big on food. Pickup took a bit long.

This is by far the worst store I have eaten at. Very expensive and the proportions are completely wrong. Price quality 1/10. A 15 euro container that is 80% filled with rice, 10% egg and 10% chicken, I think maybe 50 grams of chicken. The rice very sticky. This was also the last time.

Best place to eat ever in Rotterdam

What a delightful discovery. The staff was very kind and the food was out of this world. Very generous in proportion. If you like west Indian food, this is the place to go.

One of the better Suri restaurants.

Chill place, nice background music and good food.

Tasty Roti, very central, fairly priced, lovely staff and quick service. Highly recommend!! Ordered a Vega Roti and Roasted Pork Roti.

Tasty authentic Suriname and Indonesian cuisine, huge portions.

The sandwiches are incredibly tasty! A good option for a nice lunch.

High Quality Surinamese Restaurant, definitely recommended. Super flexible employees 💪🏼❤‍🔥👍🏼

We searched here on Google for the best Surinamese restaurant and this one came up. So we went there spontaneously and found a place. Unfortunately it wasn't possible to pay by card and we only had €20 in cash, which is why we could only order one plate, but the chef was nice enough to bring us two plates anyway. Overall, the food is delicious and you'll definitely be full.

Found a gem. Here you can eat good, tasty and lots of food for a good price. Don't pay attention to the exterior and if you can look around it, you can have a great meal here! We were 4 men and just had everything on the table and it was delicious!

Telo with bakeljauw was tasty. The portion was big enough and the telo was served with enough fried cod. The baked cod was tasty. No bones. The telo was crispy and tasted fresh.

Very good food! Nice portion sizes and plenty of vegetarian options. I really enjoyed my food here. You order up at the counter and they bring you your food This is the kind of place, that you don't necessarily come to because of the atmosphere, but more for the great food. We were here in February and wanted to go again a few days later for a quick grab before we left Rotterdam but sadly they weren't open yet at the time that it said online, that might be something to keep in mind. I would still recommend going though, we were really happy with the food, especially considering the low price!

I ordered 18 euros worth of food, because at comparable restaurants elsewhere in the country I only had enough food for 1 person for that amount of money. But here you get food for two for that money and it is also very tasty! 🤤

Great food but usually crowded. Especially between 12-15hr and 17-19hr

Everyone knows this is where you get the best roti and it does not disappoint! place looks decently clean and staff is friendly. My only complaint would be that eating roti can get very messy and will leave you with dirty hands and they can be quickly washed there BUT drying ur hands is another story. Their hand drying machine gently blows so softly i think its about to die AND there no paper. So I walked out of there with some pretty wet hands haha.

Truly a delightful experience. The roti dishes they serve are full of flavor and perfectly cooked. The prices are reasonable and the quality of the food is outstanding. The employees are friendly and very welcoming. The locals rave about this place - it's no wonder that it gets full so quickly. Overall, I highly recommend this restaurant to anyone who is looking for a delicious meal. I can't wait to go back again soon.

Had a super tasty roti. Everyone sits together at the table, very busy. Very good fast service. Not very atmospheric inside, but the people make it cozy.

Phenomenal food, only downside is how busy it gets! Cannot recommend the chicken curry sandwich highly enough!

Very tasty!! And also cheap! If I could I would go here three times every day.

The Surinamese eatery as far as I'm concerned. Food fantastic, good and quick service. Downside: The design is sleek and businesslike, certainly no longer the atmosphere it used to radiate with the more 'tropical' design.
