Awesome food and service. We got our order taken straight away and we were looked after very well. We ordered the curry beef and chicken and the fried rice and All meals were incredible! And the prices were great.
Yum yum. Really authentic and tasty food at a reasonable price. Highly recommend.
Finally found a restaurant that serves real Indonesian food and to be honest it was great , service was fantastic and so was the price !!!!! Will definitely be driving back again .

great place. good service. Love the food.
Absolutely fab joint ��
Def go there again and take family xxxx
The warmest, friendliest service, and Asian food options to die for.
Always interesting and exciting specials...just try to stop me from coming back!!
Amazing customer service, delicious and flavoursome foods, especially the Nasi Goreng and Beef Rendang. The young man serving me was a delightful gentlemen, taking his time and effort to ensure we had a great experience, tipped him $5 he deserves a pay rise.

The customer service were exceptional. The place has good ambiance. The food is more then I expected. very delicious and tasty. Will definitely come back.
Had our lunch at Melting Pot in a hot sunny day. Love the ambience and open space of the place. Love the Babi Kecap (stewed pork belly in dark soy sauce), tasty and strong flavor of anise and five spices. We even ordered extra rice for that.
Price is a bit high but expect so for that area.
I've been for lunch a few times after I was introduced by a friend. My favourite dish is Nasi Lemak. The flavours are authentic and they can vary the amount of chilli if you are concerned. The Nasi goreng had a great 'kick'.
This is a great place for a quick casual lunch. Their curry laksa is one of the best around town. Their marinated chicken is also brilliant. Very friendly service too
Tasty Indonesian food! Highly recommend to those who are going to have the gado gado and assam laksa. Nasi kuning tasted great too with the sambal chilli. Portions are large, this place is great for a cheap and satisfying meal
Came along for lunch with my partner and my folks. We have been to the previous restaurant in Fremantle many times before this current owner bought this place so decided to come along today and check it out. Staff were very accommodating and prompt with requests for joining tables and separate billing. We ordered Beef Rendang, Nasi Goreng and Chicken Satay. Food was sensational, customer service was outstanding and premises were exceptionally sterile. Will be coming back for sure.
Third time here, always had great food and service is great. Doesn't matter how busy it is, food is always less than 15 minutes from ordering and delicious. Great local
The service is amazing. Although I'm not a coffee enthusiast, whenever I bring my friends who are, they'd say melting pot has great coffee.
The ayam bakar is my go to dish when I'm here!
A great local take away with quality ingredients. Priced very well and fast service. Chicken satay sticks are delicious as is the chicken rendang. We haven't dined in, so can't comment on table service, but we are always greeted with a friendly smile when we pick up our takeaway.
Authentic flavours in a casual but service orientated establishment. I recommend the Assam Laksa. Menu is inspired by Indonesian, Malaysian and Thai cuisine.

Great little local to grab some really good food and for a cheap price! I love their nasi goreng here and they will even do it with an omelette instead of a fries egg! The service is excellent and the food is good! Great for a quick and easy dinner!
I'm surprise by the quality of food. We ordered a nasi lemak with rendang beef and a laksa. Nasi lemak is pretty ordinary, but what I like about it is at least they give the fresh cut cucumber, unlike some restaurants they pre cut their vegetables which end up dried and yucky. Laksa was pretty good too. Restaurant is clean and pretty good atmosphere. Will come back!
Dropped in to have a morning coffee with a friend and although it was my first time it was clearly popular with the locals. Proudly displaying a Community Business Award from the local Rotary Club, I could quickly see why it had won this award. Excellent service and engaging conversation with the staff while I waited for my friend to arrive. The coffee was excellent and the steady stream of others coming in for coffee showed it is a local gem. They also have an extensive menu with emphasis on Malay/Indonesian food dine in or take away which we are yet to try but we'll be back and to get more coffee soon.
First time coming to this place a few months ago. Was definitely sceptical when they mentioned msg free food. Most Asian cafe or restaurant would use some msg. How would the food taste and would they be able to bring out the authentic flavours. Definitely impressed with the flavours. The chicken rendang was delicious. Tasted almost like my mums and the assam laksa or penang laksa is just yum. Good kick with chilli.
I loved the satay sticks here! Juicy flavourful meat, with a bit of the charredness (I know that's not a real word) to the edges of the meat on a generous bed of creamy satay sauce. My chicken curry had a good flavour (note, it's a little on the spicier side) although the potatoes that came with it tasted like an afterthought as opposed to truly complimenting the dish. Cold teh terik had been nicely aerated (it tasted like they had aerated it anyway - is it supposed to be?) and went down really well.
The restaurant was empty when we went as we arrived quite early for lunch so the food arrived really quickly. They were playing a Taylor Swift album, the place was very clean and the staff were friendly. It is definitely more of a casual place to go and have a quick lunch plus there's the added bonus that they don't use MSG and it's still as tasty as it was.
My favourite place to eat, affordable & always please my family. Good to know that their foods are MSG free as hubby & my young kids are MSG sensitive .
The yellow rice & ayam Bali have authentic flavour..I super love it!!
The kids love the grilled chicken and hubby..pretty much love all their foods 😋 We have tried almost all the meals on the menu.
Afforable Asian (Malay / Indonesian influenced) offering. Winner as there aren't any better offerings in terms of range and taste in the vacinity.
Don't bother with coffee though.
Best Indonesia cafe in town. Nasi Goreng and Beef Rendang is A must order dishes. Very friendly staff and good service. Reasonable prices for every one. If you have no time go to Bali come here!
Craving for indo food, we came here for dinner. Got the Asam Laksa as per recommended by the staff and beef Rendang. When it came, we both thought the portion was small. Beef was slightly dry even with plenty of gravy but the Asam Laksa was good with enough spicy kick and not fishy. Will probably go back to try others if I'm in the area.
Had nasi goreng (fried rice) and teh C cold (ice milk tea). Nasi Goreng was nice, my daughter ate a alot of it too.., but the tea was disappointing, it tasted like the one from the sachet (even worse). Can't really taste it... Service was fast and friendly
My craving for Indonesian food got satisfied by Melting Pot. The guy who served us was really friendly. We ordered Beef Rendang, Gado" and Ayam Bali. Hubby loves rendang and he gave this one 8/10, pretty good! Ayam Bali was well marinated, juicy and generous in portion. It's not that spicy for me though. Gado" was also huge and good. It's a great first experience. Apparently they are planning to start selling Indonesian desserts and drinks soon. Looking forward to our next visits!
Unlike many other asian cafes/restaurants that all too often use msg in their cooking, the flavours you get from Melting Pot are clean and yet very tasty. Because it is msg-free, I like the fact that my whole family can enjoy their food (my 18 month old toddler loves their coconut rice!). We ordered some catering from them for a party before, and judging on the response and enquiries we received, we could tell our guests were very impressed with the quality of food served. We always go back for their Nasi Lemak, Curry dishes and Ayam Bakar, as they always hit the spot. We'll definitely be back again soon, this time we'll have to make a point to trying some of their other dishes!
I'm glad to say that I've never walked out from the Melting Pot with an unhappy feeling. For me this restaurant ticks all the right boxes from really good service, food delivery times and quality. I ordered a few takeaways from Melting Pot in the past and they always packaged my food very well.
I made my way to give this place a try. Ordered a take away nasi lemak. Staff on duty was friendly.
My take on the nasi lemak. I was a little disappointed that I cannot taste the coconut infusion into the rice. Instead it tastes like plain rice. But then again maybe it could be this restaurant's style of cooking.
I enjoyed the chicken dish in it. Nice and tasty. The anchovies were crispy given they were deep fried. The sambal sauce surprisingly was a little mild in terms of spiciness. Overall the meal was enjoyable but I think if there is more coconut milk in the rice, it will definitely make it more fragrant and tasty.
I will have to come back and try their other dishes. They could be stronger in other dishes so will look forward to returning to try again.
Finally I am very impressed that they used bio degradable plastics for their take aways. I think that could possibly add on their cost but that shows they do care about the environment in that sense.
Such a beaut little cafe!. We love the food at the Melting Pot Cafe in Ardross. We've eaten in the cafe a couple of times and had take away a few times and haven't been disappointed. We love the beef rendang, chicken satay sticks and the Nasi Goreng. The Ayam Bakar and black pepper chicken are also wonderful. The staff are so friendly and welcoming and we will continue eating here. We just wish it was open on weekends too.
Everyday Eat. Not many restaurants open on Monday night so I'm glad we found this place. I like the menu with combo of Indonesian, Malaysian and Thai. Its MSG free and I find the Assam laksa is one of the best in town. Curry laksa is comparable to Singapore. Prices are reasonable. In overall 2 thumbs up!
NO MSG. My family often comes when we don't cook. The prices are quite reasonable with good quality. It is nice to have no msg in the food for a change from most restaurants. We like the curry laksa and assam laksa but then new food keeps popping up on the menu. The Indonesian fish cake is the latest that we find is very delicious. Rendang also authentic. Many good choices and hard to get sick of this cafe. Highly recommended for quick mid week meals.
Tasty, Affordable and Delightful.. Decided to eat here with my family for lunch after receiving some good reviews from a number of people and happy to say it did not disappoint. We were surprised to see a fusion of dishes and based on recommendations, we went for the Curry Laksa, Nasi Lemak and Babi Kecap. To say the laksa was tasty is an understatement. The portion was just right and the curry gravy was delectably moorish. It was also a nice change from the usual MSG laden stuff we've been accustomed to. The nasi lemak was value for money and bonus points goes to the coconut rice. One of the better ones I've tasted especially coupled with the sambal accompaniment. To round everything up was the Babi Kecap and it's as good if not better than my mother-in-law's - home style goodness at it's best. Overall, a very surprising and pleasant dining experience from a very unassuming cafe and glad we checked it out. We shall return.
Yummy!! Fresh, Excellent Foods. I love Melting Pot. Authentic Asian foods. Beef rendang, nasi goreng, asam laksa are some of my favourites. Every time we come to this place never had any bad experiences, simply foods always great, friendly staff, and fresh ingredients. Highly recommended to family and friends. Definitely will return soon.
The lady next to me enjoyed her meal so much that she ordered a second one to take home! My laksa was nice but not as takeaway worthy. Lots of very happy customers - I'll be back to investigate further!
Good food. Went in for our usual dinner and becoming a regular now. Price is reasonable and quality is always good. Anyway I tried the beef rendang tonight since feeling for something new. WOW! I must say it is excellent. The spices are not overpowering and the chillies is just enough to give it a bite but not too hot. And the beef is bite size, nice and tender. There is a bit of sauce to go with the rice to keep the meal nice and saucy. Well, now I have more choice when I come. It's been 4 dishes I like now. Well done guys keep up the good meals coming.
A lovely cafe, very stylish, clean and fresh, exceptional coffee, food, and very friendly service and "bakery bread", a fabulous asset to the Kearns Crescent area, recommended !
Great. Called in tonight to order some takeout and thought it was excellent especially the chicken satays which were some of the best I've ever had. I will be adding this place to my weekly takeaway list. They may need to do some advertising in local papers to let people know its there as I only live around the corner and didn't even know its there until I saw it on Urbanspoon. I can recommend this place if you like Indonesian /Asian food with no MSG. Prices also fairly reasonable. Give it a try.
Pretty awesome food. Great quality and pretty quiet
One of my fave place in the area..food is fresh and tasty..place is clean..
Lovely people but need to learn what a good coffee tastes like.. Melting Port is great. The food is consistent and yummy and very reasonably priced.
But.... the coffee is absolute crap - go next door to Gelare for coffee and dessert.
