Sate Madura Simpang Bukit
A 22-seat kitchen run by Eleni & Yassine, serving the dishes their grandmothers argued about on Tuesday nights in Kreuzberg.
Why everyone keeps coming back.
Sate Madura Simpang Bukit is a must-visit satay restaurant nestled in the heart of Kemang Manis, Palembang. Specializing in authentic Madura-style satay and traditional Indonesian dishes, this cozy diner invites you to indulge in a rich culinary experience that beautifully balances smokiness and savory flavors.
The star of the menu is undoubtedly their sate ayam (chicken satay) and sate kambing (goat satay), grilled to perfection with a tantalizing smoky aroma that lingers delightfully. One devoted patron praised the chicken skewers for being well-done, smoky yet succulent, with a peanut sauce that is thick and pleasantly balanced — not overly sweet, encapsulating the true essence of Madura satay. The addition of crisp cucumber pickles and soft lontong (steamed rice cake with an authentic banana leaf fragrance) elevates every bite, providing a welcome contrast of textures.
Beyond satay, their soto sapi (beef soup) and soto ayam (chicken soup) make for a refreshing and comforting accompaniment. The broth is aromatic and light, subtly enhanced with a squeeze of lime, making it an ideal palate cleanser amid the richly flavored skewers.
While some diners have mentioned that the peanut sauce could be slightly thicker and the chicken satay grilled a bit more to add crispiness, the overall dining experience remains inviting. The setting, located in a well-planned yet modest commercial residential area, offers a simple and unfussy atmosphere — putting the spotlight firmly on the food. It’s a place where the focus is on authentic flavors rather than lavish decor, perfect for those who seek genuine Indonesian street food in a relaxed environment.
Whether you’re a local or a traveler craving a true taste of Madura culinary tradition, Sate Madura Simpang Bukit delivers a satisfying and flavorful journey through every skewer and spoonful. Don’t miss pairing your meal with their signature soto and the freshly prepared lontong for an unforgettable dining moment in Palembang.
