    We had the Theo’s chips and stuffed squash flowers for appetizers. I would highly recommend both. My wife had the Bronzino and I had the filet mignon souvlaki. They were both excellent. I tried their great beer Mythos which was crisp and refreshing. My wife had the spicy margarita and she enjoyed it. Unfortunately, we did not have room for dessert, but they looked fantastic. This place was recommended to us by my cousin, and I can’t wait to think of when I see her.

    Fantastic Valentine’s Day Experience! My wife and I had an amazing Valentine’s Day dinner at Krakatoa Restaurant. From the moment we walked in, the ambiance was warm and inviting, setting the perfect mood for the evening. The service was excellent—attentive without being intrusive. The food was outstanding! Every dish was beautifully presented and packed with flavor. We especially loved the Rendang Sapi, which was cooked to perfection. The wine selection were equally impressive, and the dessert was the perfect sweet ending to a wonderful night. Overall, everything about our experience was top-notch. We’ll definitely be coming back and highly recommend Krakatoa to anyone looking for a great dining experience! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

    ALWAYS THE BEST, YOU GET WHAT YOU PAY FOR. STEVE PUTS OUT QUALITY FOOD YOU CANNOT GET ANYWHERE ELSE. YES IT CAN GET A LITTLE LOUD, THE SERVERS CAN RUSH YOU OUT AFTER TWO HOURS, AND IT IS A LITTLE EXPENSIVE. BUT REMEMBER ONE THING AND ONE THING ONLY, IT’S ABOUT THE FOOD STUPID, IT’S ABOUT THE FOOD!
