ate and takeaway few times, the food is not consistent, sometimes taste like indonesian and sometimes like malay nasi campur. Pricing is ok but not transparent. I like the Beef Rendang, Ayam Gulai (does not taste same like what i get in Batam, almost there). I feel the food had been toned to Singaporean taste, not very authentic but still delicious.

Food is so-so. Literally sederhana. I like the rendang the most but the rest pale in comparison to your popular chains like hjh m and minang. Prices are high too. I would go back again but not occasionally

I went a bit late at 3.30pm so some dishes were already sold out but I still had a good meal. I thought the spiciness of the dishes is on par with Indonesia (as they're often toned down in Singapore). My craving for Nasi Padang was satisfied.

I came here for the soft opening and was so happy to finally be able to eat real Indonesian nasi Padang that i’m used to. The rendang was deep with coconut flavor, smoky and on the dry side. It’s the kind of flavor you know will always be consistent at an Indonesian nasi Padang restaurant. That’s exactly what Sederhana is too, it’s rasa sederhana - it’s not mind blowing but it’s not horrible either because it’s a safe bet. We go there knowing its going be be safe and good. I had nothing bad to say about the first say it was delicious and it tasted like Sederhana in Indonesia. FYI: I came around 9am they just opened and I was the only one in the queue. No rush, no stress, no room for mistakes? So naturally I wanted to come back. I ordered alot of things separated and one normal nasi bungkus. I honestly don’t know how the price was calculated because my receipt wasn’t transparent but I paid about 26$ for: ayam pop, rendang, daun singkong, 1 telur gulai, 2 keropok kulit, 2 nasi, extra gulai sauce(which was like 1tbsp of sauce btw). If you can work out the receipt let me know cuz I have no idea but I don’t mins paying if the food is gonna be goooooood. I opened up my nasi bungkus and found it was dry…. No gulai poured ontop. Nasi padang rice is not supposed to be white. Benefit of the doubt, maybe they forgot? When I tasted the rendang my heart dropped. This was not indonesian rendang. This was malay rendang and not even a good one. It was sweet, it wasn’t flavorful and it tasted very bloody/irony like it wasn’t cleaned properly. It’s only been a week, what happened? I sincerely hope the team will take this feedback into consideration because what I tasted on the first day was phenomenal. However if this is the quality now, there’s much better rendangs just a stonesthrow away like at Sabar Menanti which are definitely more worth it.

The dishes in Sederhana is not bad. Comparable to HJH Maimunah. The curries were just right. Sambal Terung was not under cooked. Beef Tendon was soft and well done. Only disappointment was they were not generous enough with the curries and the rice was quite dry. Also currently as its new, there was a long Queue. Will come back another day to try again.
