We had a wonderful meal yesterday! A tender piece of steak in a delicious (garlic) gravy, and the side dishes were also very tasty. The dessert, the chocolate trio, was also delicious. Friendly staff, who regularly came by to ask if everything was to our liking. We enjoyed ourselves and will definitely be back!

I don’t usually choose a steak quickly because of other options, but the Bali steak from Loetje is definitely one of my favorites. We have also made it an annual December tradition to eat here.

Steak with little bits of gravy is truly heavenly!
