Came here after work for dinner, it's quite empty when we arrived. I was hoping for the worest. But I was quite surprise about the quality, it's quite good.

We ordered the nasi nemak, coconut rice, ox tongue and cheese chips. All done in very good quality. Love it

Came here on Sunday night because we saw a deal through EatClub and I can safely say that there are no regrets. The pork ribs were really delicious-perfectly made. The beef was cooked nicely. Would recommend this place if you are looking for some good pork ribs

Finally managed to pop in for a feasting visit at Nuri’s and it didn’t disappoint. I’ve tried a Naughty Nuri in Asia and was excited to try the ribs here to see how it compares. I reckon the one in Asia packed a bigger flavour punch but Melb’s was not too far behind. We ordered the oxtail, pork ribs, truffle fries and nasi goreng. As with all the other reviews, I agree - the nasi goreng and pork ribs are A MUST! The pork ribs flavour is comparable to the one overseas but the favourite was the nasi goreng - soooooo flavoursome. The oxtail should have a chilli 🌶 icon next to it as the Balinese sauce was actually quite spicy (or maybe cos I just have a low spice threshold). The truffle fries was actually chips but was still lovely and crunchy. Great customer service and overall a lovely first time at Naughty Nuri’s Melbourne.

Ordered 5 dishes, I’d say the serving was a bit small but the flavours were good. Nasi Goreng tips it for me, super greasy but yummm, not good for your high blood pressure/cholesterol looking people.
The ribs were reasonable, sauce was good but I found the crispy duck meat a tad dry (dip it in the soup).
Got into the EatClub wave so this was 20% off 😍

🍖BBQ pork ribs that are finger licken' good! Im obsessed with pork ribs, but they're usually a hit or miss. These mouthwatering😋 ribs from Naughty Nuri’s was smothered in a sweet sticky glazed secret sauce, had a wonderfully smoky flesh that gently pulls off the bone as you bite into it👌🏻. I am so damn hungry now😍!
Mi goreng (Indomie one) was probably the first meal I learnt to cook, was it also your first meal you learnt to 👩‍🍳 ? So every time I see ‘traditional’ mi goreng at restaurants, I cant help but order it as I rarely have indomie mi goreng anymore cos it just sits on my waistline🤫. This one at Naughty Nuri’s was so flavourful and so tasty with the perfect bouncy chewy noodles🍜 just the way I like it! Although it was on the sweeter side, but as a dessert lover it was perfect for me.

We had the mixed meat platter to share between two, favourite was the pork chop. Everything was well seasoned and plenty for two girls to eat.

Also had some fried anchovies, they were a little on the salty side though.

Service was quick and friendly.

Finally tried Naughty Nuri’s and it didn’t disappoint! Came with friends and ordered the full rack of ribs, crispy pork belly, sticky pork belly, crispy chicken, oxtail and morning glory to share with coconut rice. The ribs and sticky pork belly were definitely the best dishes. Crispy pork belly was a little tough and dry..crispy chicken was ok and the oxtail pretty flavoursome. Portion of the morning glory was a little small but tasty. Friendly service. Will be back with friends to try other items on their menu.

I tried their pork ribs when they were just recently opened and to be honest, I was dissapointed because the ribs were so far from the original store in Bali. It just tasted like dark soy sauce and nothing else. However, after a few years, I went back and tried other dishes. It turned out to be really good. I like the overall taste and the way they serve traditional Indonesian food in modern style. They are definitely a good representative of Indonesian food in Australia. Keep on the good work!

I had the beef rendang with a side of rice and my friend and I shared the cheese fries with the chili sauce.
The fries tasted very nice although I’m pretty sure they mixed it up with the truffle fries because the chips were soaked in truffle oil then cover in cheese and chili sauce.
The beef rendang was nice although I’d say my dish could’ve used just a little bit more meat.
I wouldn’t recommend the iced coffee here

A few nights ago I finally visited Naughty Nuri's Melbourne I had been in Greece for 9 months and was looking forward to having some Indonesian food😍

This place has got to me one of my favourites for dinner. Everything we had was amazing, the flavors, the presentation, the staff was super friendly and dessert was delicious!!Sliders (Mini Trio Of Burgers)

Pulled Beef, Crispy Pork Belly & Soft Shell Crab

Salt & Pepper Squid with lemongrass crumb, coriander sauce, topped with fresh chilli (spicy)

Mushroom Croquettes with bechamel, mushrooms, kaffir lime leaves, melted cheddar cheese, smoked bbq and lime sauce

Crispy Dick with betutu sauce and Nuri's sambal trio

The duck was slightly overcooked which is why I didnt give a 5 star rating

Beef Rendang with wagyu beef in coconut cream and mixed spices, potatoes, pappadum and coconut chutney

Mie Goreng (spicy)

Chocolate Ganache with honeycomb

Tasting Notes Melbourne

I would have given 3 stars but due to how good i found this brand to be in Ubud they get an extra star. I think for their pork ribs they should find a more suitable pork, one that is a free range variety for a gamier flavour to be more similar to the Indonesian counterpart. Have been here twice and found the second time around was better due to having more people to share more items.

Amazing Indonesian place at Melbourne Central opposite TGIF which brews there own Naughty Lager that was really smooth and refreshing.

We had Salt & Pepper Squid to start with which was served in an interesting paper bag with green chilly dip.

The Crispy Chicken dish was interesting as the chicken pieces were served with various types of sides including a soup. The last thing was the Mi Goreng which was quite good as well.

The staff was really friendly and helpful as well.

Wandered around Melb Central and ended up here after much consideration, and I have to say I was pleasantly surprised. The ribs were deliciously tender and falling right off the bone. The crispy duck was ok. All in all, a wee bit pricey, but I left full and happy. Definitely looking forward to trying Nuri’s once more in the OG Bali outlet next month!

Colleagues and I come here every week to have their lunch specials, brought my family in last night to try and absolutely loved it. It’s a completely different atmosphere and vibe in the restaurant from day time, the restaurant was pumping with energy. We ordered pork belly with sauce (which was truly delicious), pork chop (a little dry but taste good), and ribs platter. Service was prompt but quite charming and attentive, and also their speed is impressive

Came as a group of 4 last weekend, want to give a special shoutout to the friendly staffs. We shared a mixed platter, barramundi, night’s special which was beef brisket, and the sticky pork belly- all dishes recommended by the waitress. The sticky pork belly and the barramundi were the standouts! And the ribs so tender and flavoursome. Service was so efficient and in a friendly manner. Overall we were very well taken care of and left the restaurant happy with happy tummies!

Pleasant dinning experience. Went here for a business lunch with two highly respected communications executives. The $10 lunch special was great value and extremely generous portion size for what we received. Attentive staff and good quality food, it was almost too much but that was a very good thing. My BBQ wings were tasty however I do have to say the cheese fries weren’t as impressive.

Went there with a group of 6 for Friday lunch. $10 lunch deal with soft drink is what they are currently offering. The fried rice was tasty n this lunch deal is very good value.

Came back again on the night (cos I live near Melbourne Central) to try other items on the menu. Their prok rib is amazing and super juicy. The beef ribs was nice but a little bit salty, truffle fries is something new to me and it was delicious. Their $10 cocktails is the cheapest in town (other places selling $13 - $16 per cocktails in the CBD) and it tasted amazing and the presentation was good.

Customer service of this place is 10/10, during the 2 hours dinner on a Friday night, we have been asked twice to make sure we were ok and being look after (it was a full house and i saw their staffs went to every single tables to check if everything was ok on every tables) . The price on their food menu is reasonable, cocktails is cheap and amazing, and with the customer service that we were offered, I will give this place 10/10....

Had lunch here with work colleagues. I loved the mouth watering sweet & spicy fried rice with big prawns. Great value too as part of the lunch deal. Also excellent customer service in getting us our Sriracha chicken wings despite not having them initially. The chicken wings with crispy fried skin topped with their fabulous sauces, are one of the best in town. Highly recommended.

Couldn't find the place we were wanting to get to so walked into here as we passed. As lovers of Malaysian cuisine we weren't disappointed by the Balinese chicken and ox tongue that were both particularly authentic. The cheesy fries were a spicy indulgence and the $10 cocktails only sweetened the deal. Definitely will be back.

Came here for lunch on a Friday, the place was bustling. Super value lunch deal at $10 with a drink. Our meals took a little while to come out but its understandable since the place looks so busy & staff was apologetic.

I absolutely loved the service at Naughty Nuri when my girlfriends and I went there to enjoy some cocktails and dinner. The staff were exceptionally polite and gave us the best service. Kim Young, the head chef and owner, also came to our table to ask how the food was which I thought was a wonderful way to connect with his customers and ask for feedback to make sure he could create dishes that tasted amazing. We loved the pork belly, chilli wings and pork ribs! I will definitely be coming back to try other dishes and highly recommend this restaurant to others.

Our dinner this evening was deliciousness encapsulated. I am so grateful to be able to have such a pleasant and tasty night. We had Thai iced tea, bintang, Ashton Mila cocktails which were all great. We had chicken skewers, sweet potato spring rolls and roasted eggplant for entree. We then had the beef rendang, crispy duck and Barra for mains. My Barra was divine. The beef was slow cooked heaven and the duck was nice. I would recommend!!

Had dinner here on my birthday last month.
The food was amazing, the staffs are incredibly friendly. They always made sure we are okay. $10 cocktails make me wanna go there as often as I can. I believe that the chefs put too much love on the food that’s why I m falling in love with this place. The place is Amazing, cozy and great. When I said bye to the chef he was so really really nice, he made sure I’m okay with his food. I’m an Indonesian but I would say this is more than Indonesian food. It’s Yummy , and more delicious. The sambas are super amazing. Thank you for a great experience. I told the staff about it and the told us that they have $10 lunch deal. Which is great!

The price is decent for the quality of food and portion. The ribs are a must, go for the monster ribs, cheeses fries on top of the full ribs. Heavenly. The Sriricha fried chicken wings are another must try dish, can be spicy but very satisfying. Do you self a favour and save some room for desserts. Mango pudding and chocolate parfait are a no brainer! This is a not a traditional Indonesian restaurant and they are serving Indonesian fusion so you will need to keep an opened mind coming into the restaurant.

Located in Melbourne central next to Hoyts. Good place to eat if you are looking for cheap food but dislike the crowd of the food courts. One of the best Nasi gorengs i had so far in Melbourne. Mr had barbecue chicken on rice, which was delicious except for a bit too much barbecue sauce. The sambals were excellent. This place has made it to our ‘Must visit again ‘ list , which is a tough one to get into 🙂

Fo0die dined as a guest of Naughty Nuri and as such, the rating does not give any consideration to customer service. 

Conveniently located inside Melbourne Central on level 3 where Nandos and the Hoyts ticket counter is, Naughty Nuri is right next door to Pancake Parlour. The first Naughty Nuri venue opened up in Ubud in Bali when Brian from New Jersey met Nuri which is also how the venue name came about; Brian was nicknamed ‘naughty’ and together the venue name was created as ‘Naughty Nuri’.

Came here with a group of friends as a catchup 1 year after we had our last one which was funnily enough in Bali. Having tried the original in Bali, have to say we were very surprised.

The food here was yum, the pork ribs were beautifully falling off the bone while they even gave us extra sauce. Iga (beef ribs) had a very strong spiced flavour, sambal could be a tad spicier but I reckon its probably just fire breathing me who wants it hotter.

The duck was a tad stringey, but its a tricky dish as always for duck. The Ayam (chicken) bertutu was absolutely delish though. Highlights were definitely the pork ribs, the resistance was not biting into my fingers after licking them off the sauce as we just wanted more! Beer was also nice and refreshing.

Overall the experience was good, the staff was reasonably attentive, might had been the weeknight where it wasn't too crazy.

The quality of food was to die for! I've always passed this place but I've never actually thought to go and eat there... the ribs were so soft and tender, practically falling off the bone and into my mouth! Mushroom croquette was defiantly a fave as well as all the side dishes. Cannot wait to go back and eat a whole rack of ribs all to myself! Truffle fries also for someone who has never tried truffle sure made me love truffle! Perfect amount of everything 10/10 review
Also if you're vegan they are more than accomodating for options, the last photo is a vegan entree

Naughty Nuri's is a great place to savour true Indonesian flavours.
My preferred dishes from their vast menu are: Raw Tuna Wonton Cones, Yuzu Crab Jelly On Basil Leaf, Nasi Goreng and their Signature Pork Ribs. The chef is clearly giving Indonesian cuisine a fantastic twist.
Staff very helpful in giving food recommendations and explanations.
Would highly recommend Naughty Nuri's.

We have been here more than 5 times. This time we were lucky enough to try their new menus. 
Our all time favourite is the pork rib! We would say this place serves the best pork rib in Melbourne! 
We also loves their Indo fried chickens served with Sambal and Nasi Goreng or Indonesian Fried rice. 

Their drinks were refreshing and their desserts were really interesting and unique. You should give it a try!

The ayam bakar is 5/5. The grilled chicken is absolutely delicious. The nice charred grill is complimented by the sweet soy marinade. The chicken is tender and juicy. The kangkung and sambals are the perfect condiments with the protein.

The crispy pork belly was good but just a little bland. The meat was soft and crispy and again the sambals and kangkung were the perfect condiments.

Staff was friendly and service was fast.

Also offers delivery.

The name definitely doesn’t reflect the type of establishment this is lol
There were 9 of us so we decided to go with the chef selection of 5 dishes. We also ordered no pork in any of them which I believe restricted the kitchen as half the items on the menu was pork based.
Nether less the dishes that came out was tasty though a couple of them seemed a little bit oily for my liking.
Service was great and super friendly and the venue is relaxed.

Been to Naughty Nuri Melbourne last Saturday.Nothing compared to the one in Bali. NN Melbourne is more sophiticated, all the platings look great especially the new beef shortribs which was on special on the night but i am not someone who gonna take pictures to brag about it. The pork ribs was totally different from Bali presentation wise.The taste was much better than in Bali. Service was good and one of the staff was very funny and took good care of us.

They did some nice and colourful cocktails as well which are perfectly with the dishes.
Service is excellent, staff are friendly, reasonable price. According to the staff, they will have some new dishes and drinks coming soon.

Been at Naughty Nuri when they first opened and they were really bad. Food and services were bad but i was pretty surprise when i went last week. The menu may not be totally authentic but who cares. The food is sophisticated and delicious especially the cured kingfish in yuzu reduction.Ribs is 100 times better than before. It does not look like a piece of meat with no love anymore.It looks great on the board with the finishing touch with the pickled gherkin which cut the sweetness. What i heard was ,Naughty Nuri is under new management since last October and that the chef was trained under some big names chefs in Melbourne as one of my friend knows the chef.Service wise,i definitely think they were very attentive to my needs. Love it.

Sides here are yummy, service is fast and friendly. Ribs came out but where more cold to warm and the flavours a bit too sweet so a small portion was sufficient for me. The fries could probably be a bit more "truffley" they were lacking in the truffle seasoning. Good to come here in a big group. They have good drink options.

Five stars for me. Ok look. You can't compare this to the one in Bali. But it does come close. The grills here are awesome. Had the beef with lychee and the full rack. and it was amazing. The mie goreng taste great too, but order only if you're craving and if you can get pass the idea that you're actually paying $14 for instant noodles.
