Travel and dine out are one of my hobbies.I live in Seattle in the past 9 years never found any ""good quality"" of Indonesia restaurant. I have been visiting Julia's kitchen since 2007 regularly but in the past 3 times had bad experiences. The parking situation is awful, it's odd how clinic parking sign put right in front of the restaurant, lucky if you could find space in the back of restaurant that assigned for 3 cars only otherwise you should find parking space on the street (but pay attention of the signs! certain hours your car can be towed if you exceed the time limit). I thought over time they will improve the service and quality of food , I guess I was wrong ! my recent trip was tonite around 6 pm when I ordered ""pempek palembang"",""siomay"" and ""es teler"".pempek palembang (traditional fish cake mixed with egg and flour) was only small pieces swamped in egg noodles and cucumber, the noodles was pre-cooked look grim.the siomay (steam veggies and woonton) were pre-cooked like yesterday and they just warmed up in microwave. everything was tasteless except the es teler was ok (traditional mix fruits drink as dessert).
Pros: es teler is ok
Cons: somay and pempek not up to the standard, parking is a hasle.
