Rice & Sambal brings Indonesian cooking to East Passyunk in a small, supper-club-style setting that leans intimate rather than expansive. The kitchen works from a prix fixe format, with the menu changing to reflect what the owners are working on rather than sticking to a fixed rotation.
Service carries a personal, hands-on feel that regulars have come to associate with the place, part of what gives it the atmosphere of a dinner party more than a typical restaurant meal. Philadelphia Magazine named Rice & Sambal to its Best of Philly list in 2025.
