Editor’s Note

Last updated 29 May 2026

Our take on Uncle Penyet is that it offers a solid, value-for-money Indonesian fried chicken experience.

Reviewers consistently praise the Ayam Penyet for its crispy exterior and juicy, tender meat.

The Dory Penyet also receives commendation for its generous portion, crispiness, and extra hot sambal.

We note the chilli sauce is a highlight, often described as tangy, and the option to request 'nasi lemak' chilli can elevate the flavour.

While the fried chicken is generally well-received, some feedback suggests the freshness of accompanying greens can be inconsistent and the tofu sometimes lacks flavour.

The pricing is considered reasonable, with the chicken wing rice being a particular value at just over four dollars.

We also observe that the dining environment is quieter, which might appeal to some.

Overall, Uncle Penyet appears to be a reliable spot for a satisfying and affordable meal.

Verdict: A good everyday option for a quick, budget-friendly Indonesian fried chicken fix, especially if you appreciate a good sambal.

What customers say

Uncle Penyet is praised for its tender, crispy ayam penyet and value-for-money chicken wing rice, with customers appreciating the flavorful sambal and generous portions.

While the dory penyet also receives high marks for crispiness and spice, some note inconsistencies in side dishes like fresh leaves and tofu, and price increases not always reflected on signage.

Seating at the Frontier location can be challenging, but takeaway is an option.

My order when I’m there is the chicken wing rice. For just over four dollars, it is very value for money. The chicken wing is flavourful, with a slightly thicker crisp coating than normal. However, th…
