Swiss Cafe

Reviewed By Idreher - Ballarat

Have only rated this as average because I prefer eating at more atmospheric places. Breakfast buffet is extensive for the size of the hotel. Other meals are a bit expensive compared to what you can get at the local restaurants. If you like eating in I hotel restaurants this one is fine.

Have to admit, that all fish served are fresh where we should pick ourselves during order. But in overall, i think the taste is just average.

Rumah Makan Ikan Bakar Alamo

Reviewed By mikob2014

Alamo restaurant is old seafood restaurant in Kendari. They have special menu for fish barberque with peanut and chili sauce. I tried fish palumara and sinonggi. Sinonggi was made from sago flour and in papua island we called it papeda. It was traditional sago porridge and eat with traditional fish soup called palumara. The fish is fresh because it was caught in the morning from the sea. All food in this restaurant is nice and made us to ate more. If you in Kendari and want to eat traditional sea food, you should try it at alamo restaurant.

Rumah Makan Raja Laut Kendari

Reviewed By Tiwa - Jakarta

We went to this place based on the previous review in Tripadvisor that gave good reviews, but we were disappointed. Seafood was fresh, but the taste was rather bland. I was expecting the seafood to be cooked with abundant spices like typical food from Sulawesi, but it wasn't.
There was an entertainment (solo keyboard and a singer), but it was too loud so we couldn't talk to each other without shouting.
Overall, it was an ok dinner, but I don't think I'll come back to this place.

We invaded the place with over 20 people, but they managed to serve us a more than decent meal in a very reasonable time frame. And for a good price.

Warung Makan Podo Teko

Reviewed By ArBo28 - Bekasi, Jawa Barat, Indonesia

Di sepanjang jalan Abunawas banyak rumah makan dengan konsep rumahan, salah satunya adalah Warung Makan Podoteko, dengan menu utama sup ubi dan gado-gado. Karena penasaran saya pesan sup ubi. Ternyata sup ubi adalah sup daging sapi yang ditambahkan potongan ubi atau singkong dengan menu pendamping lontong beras (buras) dan telur rebus. Suasana agak gerah namun dilengkapi banyak kipas angin. Pelayanan cepat, rasa oke, harga oke. Yang perlu ditingkatkan adalah toilet.

Rumah Makan Angkasa Nikmat

Reviewed By Xie2 - Jakarta

Besides traditional cuisines (Palumara, Sinonggi, sayur bening, ikan bakar dan goreng), you can find Chinese foods as well in this restaurant. It's only about 10 minutes from Hotel Grand Clarion. The taste is not bad. The price is various.
