I have been coming for the rijsttafel for years, but the last few times we found the food to be significantly less impressive. It was too sweet, lacked spiciness, and the meat was sometimes too sinewy. We heard later that there was a new chef (not Indonesian). He came to the table and said that he followed the recipe exactly. So I think it is not a matter of following the recipe, but of "tasting and adjusting"... A shame!

Unfortunately, our visit to Ron Gastro Bar in Laren was very disappointing this time. We have been coming here for years and always went with great pleasure, because the rijsttafels used to be incredibly good: good quality, delicious flavors, and a generous amount of food. This time we ordered four rijsttafels, but unfortunately, we noticed a clear decline in both quality and quantity. The sauce over the satay was thick and solidified and seemed as if it had been reheated. The peanut sauce also did not seem fresh. Moreover, the chicken satay itself was quite bland and lacked salt. In addition, we found it a pity that we only received half an egg with the egg dish instead of a whole egg. In itself, perhaps a small detail, but in combination with the smaller portions and the lower quality, it is noticeable. For about €40 per person, we really expect more. While we used to feel that the rijsttafels were certainly worth the price, we now unfortunately feel that the price-quality ratio is no longer right. However, the biggest problem for us is not even the quantity, but primarily that the quality has deteriorated significantly compared to the past. Unfortunately, this was the last time we will be coming here. It is a great pity, as we always enjoyed coming here and were regulars for years. We hope that the quality for other guests returns to the level we were accustomed to at Ron Gastro Bar.

What a wonderful experience at Ron Gastrobar Indonesia in Laren! We had a delicious meal here and were especially pleased with how well my allergy and pregnancy were taken into account. The service regarding this was truly top-notch. They were very helpful and the rijsttafel was adjusted so that I could enjoy the food worry-free and safely. That gave me a great deal of confidence and made the evening even more enjoyable. A huge compliment to the staff and the kitchen for their attention, flexibility, and hospitality. Highly recommended!

Very nice restaurant, especially with remarkably attentive service staff! The food (rice table) was good, flavorful, and plentiful.... I did miss the sajur beans on the side, though, but well, that is a matter of taste........ The food was a big plus, partly due to the sense of hospitality you experience here! The only downside I personally found were the prices of the drinks....... €9 for a glass of Riesling, and €5.50 for a Cappuccino? The old saying of "they eat you poor, and drink you rich" has been taken a bit too literally here. That could be toned down a bit. (but that is just my opinion!) Otherwise, an immaculate establishment where we felt very comfortable, also thanks to the atmospheric ambiance....... Fam. Huisman/Prins

Unfortunately, a major disappointment! And far too expensive for this quality. The restaurant is indeed nicely decorated, but has little to do with Indonesia, unless you mean the large wicker items. The air conditioning was set too cold, and the music was 80s soul. The staff was friendly but had to serve a lot of people, which meant the wait was sometimes long. The most important thing: the quality and taste of the food. I found it mostly too sweet and sometimes too salty. Mild flavors, little surprise in the vast palette of this cuisine. I wouldn't have served the steak tartare starter with a twist in the heat, and it also had little to do with Indonesia, but that must be Ron's touch. The 'speculaas' spices in the rendang were not well blended; sometimes you felt full after a bite, and then again you didn't. The goat satay was from an old goat, had a bit of a petting zoo taste, and far too much soy sauce. The sweet and sour cucumber was much too sour. The flavors are not nicely balanced, tipping too far towards sweet/sour or salty. All in all, I also found the balance between vegetables and meat skewed; we had the more expensive rijsttafel (47.00 p.p.), which includes a lot of meat, two fish dishes, and two vegetables. The second vegetable that came with it was (too) cold. The lodeh, which I only tasted at the very end, was completely spoiled and we sent it back. As compensation, we received extra pieces of fried banana, for which we subsequently waited at least fifteen minutes. Another positive note: the rest of the food was packed up neatly! The boy with the curly hair was very friendly and hospitable. It is nice for beginners of the rijsttafel culture. But an experienced connoisseur of Indonesian cuisine has no business being here.

There was some confusion after dining there last time, but the team handled it well. Visited again and sat at the front this time, though you can definitely feel the draft coming from the door. Otherwise, the food was delicious again, and I stand by the rating below. Deliciously enjoyed the extensive rijsttafel in a nice atmosphere, good service, and a pleasant ambiance. Reservations are necessary, but the food is very good. Why 4 stars? Considering the price in relation to the portions, there are restaurants that do this better. For example, two people with 1 egg is really meager.

Had a rijsttafel at Ron gastrobar. Started with some prawn crackers with peanut sauce. Nothing special, but nice to nibble on. Daging smoor croquettes as a starter. I found them very flavorful. A delicious Indonesian beer to go with it. Lots of small bowls on the table with dishes that were well-seasoned. I would have preferred them served a bit warmer, despite the warming plate. The goat and chicken satay was very tasty. Good grilled flavor and a good sauce too. All the dishes were really well-seasoned, by the way. There was also some white 🍚 and some fried rice, but that was... a bit hard. Dessert was served in a container with liquid nitrogen. Soft serve ice cream with red fruits and spekkoek. Tasty. The service was good and friendly, and the interior is warm and cozy. Certainly not the best Indonesian cuisine, but tasty nonetheless. So I would say well-spiced. If you found this review helpful, please press the heart button.

I went out for dinner here with my husband on a weekday evening. I found the online reservation a bit inconvenient because you have to tick 'experiences'. I had no idea what to expect from that, as I hadn't been there before. We chose the rijsttafel. The starter and dessert were created by the chef. All courses were incredibly flavorful and clearly prepared with a lot of love. The only downside was the table, which was actually too small for the large rijsttafel. Otherwise, we enjoyed ourselves immensely and will definitely be back!

We had a delicious meal in a very cozy setting. We always want to eat early, so it is a bit emptier than if you come later, but that has to do with the fact that, as you get older, you can't sleep with such a full stomach. We feel the service has deteriorated slightly compared to the past. Some of the former enthusiasm seems to have disappeared. We found the kitchen quite noisy, but there was a good atmosphere and you could tell they enjoy their work.

What a shame! We chose Ron Laren because the four of us had something to celebrate. On Easter Monday, it turned out there was suddenly a modified menu. That wasn't a problem in itself, but neither the starter nor the dessert turned out to be anything particularly special. The rijsttafel (Indonesian rice table) was less extensive than expected. The portions turned out to be very small, so we ordered some extra -> immediately added to the bill. The service was a bit flat, too easygoing, ‘on autopilot’. The reservation didn't seem to have gone through properly; we had to ask for an explanation of the dishes…. After previous very good experiences in Oudekerk and Bloemendaal, we had expected a bit more overall. In short: maintain the quality, befitting Ron's establishments. Especially considering the prices being charged (100 euros per person).

We had a delicious Indonesian meal with very friendly and helpful service. The price was a bit of a downside. We had received special gift vouchers from Ron Gastrobar worth 100 euros and had to pay a digital deposit of 50 euros in advance. In the end, we had 25 euros left from the voucher. Since we do not live near Laren, this was a bit disappointing.

I was very positive about the food. Although it was quite expensive, we enjoyed the flavors of the Angus Rijsttafel (rice table). The service was very friendly, but it took an awfully long time to get our food and drink orders. The atmosphere is cozy and inviting, and you can chat peacefully. What I really found unacceptable was the price of €7.50!! for 750 ml of Aqua Panna still water. It was immediately offered when it was brought to the table. The purchase price was less than €1.30. Later, I ordered a carafe of tap water, which turned out to be free.

Great, let's start with that. Beautiful restaurant, clean and with an Indonesian atmosphere. We had the rijsttafel (rice table) with a snack, a bottle of wine, a coffee, and a chocolate. Total: €119.50 Friendly staff and good communication. We started with a croquette with a delicious sauce. For the main course, we had a rijsttafel (rice table), what wonderful flavors. Everything was presented beautifully and neatly. The flavors of the dishes complemented each other beautifully. The perfect Indonesian flavor you're looking for—not too spicy, but a pure sensation. We were celebrating our 5th anniversary, and upon arrival, there was a lovely card on the table. As a surprise, we received a kind of cake with an elderberry filling. Very fresh and delicious.

I've eaten here five times now. Unfortunately, the quality seems to have clearly declined over the last two visits. The flavors have become flatter, and the stew started to crumble. This is often the case with stews that have been stored for too long. A shame, because this used to be a top restaurant for me. Out of curiosity, I also ordered Ron's FEBO croquette. With two big names and a price of €9, you expect a serious croquette. Instead, you get two mini croquettes, slightly larger than a bitterbal. The flavor is probably fine, but they're so small that it's over before you can really taste them. As a result, it feels more like a gimmick than a real dish. The service is young and not very experienced, but serious and friendly. The downstairs is beautifully and exotically decorated, but the upstairs is unfortunately much less inviting. We had requested to sit downstairs, but that wasn't possible due to the size of the group. A shame, especially since we had made a reservation a month in advance.

What a disappointment! I have a lot of experience with Indonesian cuisine. This restaurant is reputed to be of high quality, so my expectations were accordingly. Unfortunately, the quality of the food is so poor that an average takeaway shop is better than a rijsttafel here. - The restaurant: It has a cozy and inviting atmosphere. But for fine dining, it seriously lacks finesse. You get a bare table with an electronic light on it. No fancy table setting with a tablecloth and beautifully folded napkins. - As a starter, you get a bowl of prawn crackers and emping mixed with a bowl of satay sauce, but this too is not neatly presented. - The staff is very young and takes a long time to subtly get their attention. We didn't receive any explanation of the dishes once the rijsttafel was served. Payment after the meal is made at the table itself. Simply not elegant. When I got to my coat, I had to search for it myself, and only then did the staff realize I needed help. My coat was handed to me but not put on, which is a real shame. We ordered the 'Agus' rice table. Unfortunately, it was terrible. The three fried dishes were tough, and the meat or fish dishes (not sure which one) were so dried out, as if they had been sitting on a warming plate for a day. The fried plantain had a crust that was too greasy, tough, and thick, and was quite cold. Another striking feature was the flavors of the dishes: none of them were consistent! The rendang and babi ketjap were completely lacking in flavor. The stew was incredibly tough and difficult to eat in all the dishes. The kipsatie and saté kambing tasted far too "smoky," and the kamping sauce didn't complement the meat, so you missed its unique flavor. The sajoer lodeh was watery, and the vegetables were uncooked. Such a waste! There was no flavor of the familiar peteh beans. The side dishes were also subpar, with the boemboe (meat paste) used seeming to come from standard packaging. No depth, no umami, but far too intensely salty/sweet/spicy, yet the depth of the spices was missing. The dessert was enjoyable and delicious. A fine restaurant for the average Dutch person. But if you're looking for a good Indonesian tasting experience for a connoisseur, I'd go elsewhere.

The next day, you'll receive an email asking you to write a review. This is for an internal system, even though they say it's available online by phone. This ensures that negative reviews never appear online. Here's my review: €150 for a few appetizers, served by students at a table still caked with remnants from previous guests. The food is kept warm in the kitchen under heat lamps, which meant half the dishes were lukewarm and some were even ice cold because they hadn't been removed from the refrigerator in time. All of this had to be eaten at a table that was far too small for the rijsttafel (rice table). Furthermore, we were served the rijsttafel first and then had to wait for plates—a clearly incorrect order. The amount of rice and nasi (fried rice) was also very limited. Some dishes were certainly tasty, but the prices are absurd in relation to the service, the quantity of food, and the quality you provide.

Cozy atmosphere, but the food was disappointing. We dined here yesterday. The restaurant is warm, tastefully decorated, and truly exudes Indonesian ambiance—which we really appreciated. Unfortunately, we were less enthusiastic about the food. We chose the Rijsttafel Agus (rice table). With the exception of the satay ayam, we found the other dishes lacking the right balance of flavors. Several dishes clearly deviated from the authentic Indonesian flavors we're used to, and we even found some too sour. We also felt that several dishes lacked the depth and harmony you normally find in Indonesian cuisine. All in all, the food was unfortunately disappointing. We realize that the flavors are probably fine for the average Dutch eater, but for those well-versed in Indonesian cuisine, our experience is best described as disappointing.

No chance! Paying a €30 deposit for a reservation, then being stuck with a 2-hour and 15-minute time limit, despite explaining my illness and tube feeding, so I can't eat quickly. It's all a hassle. (Very hospitable, and Indonesian hospitality is hard to come by.) It's a shame you've lost a regular customer of both the home boxes and the restaurant. P.S. Maybe recruit fewer social deal-loving customers and treat your normally well-paying guests fairly.

Recently took advantage of the Summer Deal. A (surprise) menu for two people including a bottle of rosé for €85. This is provided you reserve early or later in the evening and pay in advance. The food was very good and the service excellent. The only thing that bothered us was that you had to order the rice separately, which wasn't included in the deal. The main course consisted exclusively of meat or fish, so the rice was absolutely essential. This felt like a catch. Should have made the menu a bit more expensive, including the rice? Or communicate the menu beforehand, so you're transparent about what to expect.

We had a wonderful meal at Ron Gastrobar Indonesia in Laren. The welcome from Rachel was fantastic. Hospitable and friendly without being intrusive. Hats off to Rachel! Of course, our compliments also go to the chef, who ensured that every dish surprised us with the authentic flavors of Indonesia. We'd love to come back.

The food was absolutely delicious. It was very busy, but the staff did everything they could to bridge the wait for the rijsttafel (rice table). The food is delicious, but again, you do have to wait a while.

We had a lovely meal here. We made a pre-order, as there was no room left on our previous attempt. It's a bit odd that you have to pay a deposit when making a reservation. In our case, it was €30. I understand, but it doesn't seem very customer-friendly. Anyway, we ordered the rijsttafel (rice table) for two, and there were quite a few portions. If you order a rijsttafel at a Chinese restaurant, you can eat from it for three days, but that's definitely not the case here. I never go to those all-you-can-eat restaurants, but personally, I thought the portions could have been a bit more filling. I also found the portions of white rice and nasi goreng quite small. Of course, this is just my personal experience, and some people will find this more than enough. Not for me, and I'm not a big eater. However, the quality of the food was very good, and I can only be positive about that.

Ron Gastrobar in Laren had been on our to-do list for a while. The ambiance is beautiful and atmospheric. The high tables are a bit cramped, but luckily, a low table was arranged for us. We were served by Noor—and truly, every restaurant deserves a Noor! What lovely, hospitable service. The rijsttafel (rice table) arrived quickly and the flavors were excellent, only a shame it was served cold.

Opgegroeid in Indonesie, met ouders, grootouders en tantes die daar geboren en opgegroeid zijn, kan ik beweren wat rijsttafel betreft aanzienlijk ervaring te hebben. De katjangsaus was al een gedicht. Sate Kambing met geit en niet met schaap. Sate geroosterd op houtskool, zo als het hoort. Ongelovelijk. Personeel matig attent, tweede ronde bier duurde 20 minuten, maar ze waren wel heel aardig.

We had a rijsttafel here last month. The food wasn't bad, just a bit average. I expected more; you know, Ron Blaauw. The atmosphere was relaxed, though a bit dark. Initially, we had a small table, but luckily a larger one was available. The service was friendly, but a bit too obvious about routine for my liking. What bothered us quite a bit was the music. Not too loud, but it didn't fit the surroundings at all, and somehow it became irritating.

The food tastes good. But for what you get, it's overpriced. If you're not a big eater, it's okay, but still a lot of money for what you get. It was a one-time visit for us!

I didn't experience the promised (taste) sensations; most dishes were mainly salty. What a shame!

Highly recommended. Fantastic! We think this location is the nicest and tastiest of this chain. It has a lovely atmosphere, and the chef even comes to your table during dinner.

We zaten heerlijk op het terras. Het is een smaakvol ingericht restaurant en de bediening is reuze vriendelijk en voorkomend. We namen met z’n vieren rijsttafel Agus. De meest uitgebreide met vlees en vis. Helaas konden we in de Udang Peteh en in de Sajoer Lodeh geen petehboon vinden. Het was lekker, maar we misten toch wat uitgesproken smaken. Zo vond ik de Nasi Goreng niet te vergelijken met die van thuis, lekker maar voor mij vreemd. We waren euro 269 kwijt voor deze lunch. Tja.

Met een Social Deal voucher maar eens een rijsttafel uitgeprobeerd. Deze werd op een ludieke rijsttafel geserveerd en was heerlijk. Het personeel was uitermate vriendelijk en gaf duidelijk aan wat alle schaaltjes bevatten Dat maakte alles af.

Heerlijke rijsttafel met niet te grote porties zodat je niet te snel genoeg hebt. Het attente personeel gaf duidelijk aan welke gerechten het waren en in welke volgorde je deze het beste kon eten.

Ron Gastrobar Indonesia Laren is truly a fantastic experience! The Indonesian food is delicious - full of flavour, beautifully presented and prepared with care. We have been there several times now and it is a party every time. Extra special: during our last visit Ron Blaauw was there himself! That made the evening complete. We will definitely come back here. Highly recommended! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

I'm a Javanese visiting the Netherlands. I've eaten at this restaurant's food many times. It tastes authentically Javanese. It's so delicious. I feel like I'm back in Java.
