Warung Nasi Nusa Sari stands as a genuine gem in the Sundanese culinary landscape of Bogor. Nestled on Jl. Raya Sukabumi in Ciderum, this humble eatery delivers an authentic taste of West Java’s rich gastronomic heritage with clarity and warmth.
The moment you enter, the unpretentious atmosphere unfolds into a bright, clean space—comfortable and welcoming without fuss. This simplicity sets the stage for the real star: the food. Here, tradition meets freshness in every dish served.
The Lalapan platter is a refreshing array of crisp, raw vegetables paired with their signature Sambel Dadak, a freshly made chili sauce that strikes a perfect balance between heat and tanginess. It awakens the palate and complements the richness of other dishes beautifully.
Among the seafood specialties, the Gurame Pesmol is a standout. The gurame fish, fried to a golden crisp, is bathed in a yellow turmeric-infused sauce with aromatic notes of lemongrass and kaffir lime leaves. The sauce’s bright and slightly spicy character elevates the fish, creating a harmonious fusion of texture and flavor that feels both rustic and refined.
Equally impressive is the Gurame Cobek, where the fish arrives hot, coated with a bold sambal and garnished with fresh herbs. The smokiness and spiced richness of this dish linger memorably on the palate.
The Nasi Liwet served here is remarkably aromatic—cooked in coconut milk with pandan leaves—imbuing the rice with a subtle creaminess that pairs perfectly with the various side dishes. You can create your ideal combination with local favorites like Paru Balado, crispy sautéed beef lungs coated in a fiery chili paste, and Oncom Leunca, a fermented soybean dish mixed with leunca (a local herb), offering an earthy umami contrast.
Vegetarian options shine through the Tumis Daun Pepaya and Tumis Oncom, expertly sautéed to preserve their distinctive flavors without bitterness or overpowering oiliness. These dishes showcase traditional Sundanese cooking techniques that honor the ingredients’ integrity.
Customer voices echo these sentiments. Edy Nurkiswoyo highlights the authenticity and convenience, praising the bright, clean environment and “super delicious” dishes. Akhmad Jaelani speaks of the value found here: simplicity, fair pricing, and warm, friendly service that hasn’t been overshadowed by passing luxury cars.

Finally, Djoko Angklung Nugroho and Dr. Dyka W affirm the balanced price-to-flavor ratio and the improved facilities with spacious parking—a boon in a busy area—ideal for family dining and casual visits alike.
