A great and conveniently located place to get authentic Indonesian food and spices. Their homemade sambal is a staple in our household. Love the martabak, it's soft and chewy with the perfect amount of cheese. Our most recent order could use more condensed milk though, I typically don't like anything that's too sweet but martabak lacks flavor without it. Dita's used to have more variety in their menu, for the past couple of months I'm seeing the same thing every day. I miss the risoles, tahu isi, pempek etc. wish they're sold daily or preorder is available.

Highly recommend. Fresh delicious food that you can't find elsewhere, very friendly and kind. They have seating for one party outside and parking in the back.Their box combos are a good deal. 2-3 sides + rice. They also have homemade popsicles, I recommend pandan leaf flavor.They sell other Indonesian products, not just food products.

This place is the real deal! You will find tasty, authentic Indonesian food here. It's a lovely, small market with a kitchen in the back - so you can come here, shop, and take home a meal to eat. We tried two chicken dishes, and it was very good. We also had the pandan jelly pudding for dessert, and we were not disappointed.

The food from this place is absolutely delicious. The dishes are tenderly cooked with authentic aromatic spices from Indonesia and anybody who has enjoyed local cuisines in South East Asia will recognize and appreciate the taste. Very modestly priced and truly excellent value - easily the best Indonesian food in New Jersey and perhaps even the Tri-State area.

This spot is a must try for everyone in the Metuchen area. Authentic Indonesian food at a reasonable price. I've been here several times and it never disappoints.

Dita's is part specialty market for Indonesian packaged food, part takeout restaurant. I've never purchased any of the market items because from the moment I walk in the door, the delicious smell of the prepared food grabs ahold of me and I'm drawn to the back of the store. There are several prepared foods available, and it changes up each day. There are always several vegetarian items available. I love that the food is hot and ready because it makes it so easy to pick something up on the way home from work. I always get the rice and 3 veggie combo so I can try different things. The portions are very generous, enough for 2 people to share or leftovers the next day. I've only tried the veggie options at Dita's, but everything I've tried has been absolutely delicious, with so many layers of flavor. It's not the comfort food I grew up with, but it hits the same spot in my soul and makes me so happy when I eat it. I don't think I could pick a favorite dish, but I highly recommend getting anything they do with tempeh. Even if you think you don't like tempeh, the ways they prepare it here will make you change your mind! Their kale in coconut curry is sure to convert anyone who thinks they hate kale! Do yourself a favor and try this place, you'll regret not going sooner.

I was driving from whole food to kamman asian grocery one day and I saw a sign outside that said INDONESIAN something. I almost slam my brake, but for the sake of driver behind me I didnt. I thought it was just another Indonesian grocery store who get food from Philadelphia, where i go to a lot to satisfy my craving of Indonesian food. I WAS WRONG. This place cooks!!! I stopped by this morning right after they were almost done preparing this chicken dish called ayam woku. I ordered 4 dish, chicken woku, beef garo, stuffed tofu and a jackfruit dish. They are all drool worthy. They have new menu daily. This is truly a hidden gem!!! I probably will go to Philly a lot less now!! A taste of Indonesia in Metuchen!!! Cant wait to try their fried chicken!!!

This market is the only restaurant offering authentic homemade, cooked-on-premise Indonesian dishes in Central NJ (the other store such as Balindo in Colonia only offers pre-cooked catered packaged meals). The restaurant/grocery store combo is packed in a cute little house a few blocks from the Metuchen train station, away from the bustling main downtown. It also offers delish side snacks and drinks (also homemade) and a fair variety of Indonesian packaged snacks. The food?? It's a definite must try! They're deeeelicious, authentic, and yet, compared to the more typical Indonesian cooking, more thoughtful in salt and oil that I felt that they might've taken a healthier-food approach to Indonesian cooking.You can choose a 2-side ($11.50) or 3-side ($13.99) meal with rice. The menu selection changes often, and on the day I visited they have 8 choices from the more standard Indonesian fare like Rendang (spicy braised beef) and Gulai Sayur (collard greens cooked in coconut curry), to the more region-specific delights from Manado (North Sulawesi) such as Sapi Garo (marinated beef cubes that serve a delicious spicy punch), and Ayam Woku (spicy chicken immersed in lemngrass sauce). I tried the 2 above and the less "dangerous" (i.e., spicy) but equally delicious Sayur Nangka (jackfruit in coconut broth).You can add accent to your selection with the sambal ijo (green chili paste) or merah (red chili) and you can own an epic exotic dinner at an really competitive cost. To add flavor to (any) meal I have at home, I also ordered the amazingly delicious Abon Ikan (shredded fish cooked and dried) that were just recently made. There are other snacks and drinks (pictured) that I have to restrain myself from getting this time (will try some other time).Parking at the back lot. Super friendly ladies serving with smiles.
