I’m not royalty really, oh but if I were queen you bet I would come here with my court and several bushels of merry cash! What I really am is a writer - one who needed the perfect spot to celebrate the release of her...new book. I could not have chosen a better spot! And it was only due to another review I had read in a local paper of Osae and not because I knew of its existence by my usual means (careful research, word-of-mouth, synchronicity type random drive by, menu in my mailbox or in my porch door ...) Exuberant and peppy service - even heading into the evening dinner rush, and rush it did and our server remained pleasant and attentive. 5 stars, easy. Loved the atmosphere, too - open and inviting, cozy and welcoming. Easy 5 stars again. I went overboard on the food and thank goodness I did! I ate away any residual bad feelings of the week and jumped into my celebration like the eager and joyful little foodie I am! Thai ice tea? Check. Large Asahi? Check. Miso soup? Perfectly warm and salty? Check. Two Indonesian plates to share that were also new to me? Lemper and Batagor - check! A smoky short ribs entree w/sticky rice? Check. Two rolls: rainbow and sweet potato, two nigiri orders: white tuna and inari? Check! Tiramisu for dessert? Check! Checks all around and EVERYTHING was 5 Stars for taste, texture, and presentation. Amazing! That almost never happens. Standout food: batagor. If you try nothing else, just try this dish. It’s the dish I would use to turn my own cuisine-skeptic pals around. The leftover sauce alone could also easily replace (in one swoop) my multiple go to dish-fixers (hot sauce, salsa, sesame seeds). 6 stars. We’ll just have to give an extra star in this case. Off-the-beaten path by the Peterson AFB exit and totally worth the drive. One of the highlights of Colorado Springs. Highly recommended.More

Well, if you think that OSAE is a Japanese restaurant that people really enjoy, you'd be partially correct. On the menu is a representative assortment of excellent Indonesian dishes that I have not found anywhere else in town. My family decided to try this new...restaurant for lunch upon the recommendation of a fellow we have known for years from Jakarta. The owner (Edgar) and staff were personable and the service was top notch. The place was very busy just 15 minutes after it opened on Sunday at noon. We ordered an assortment of appetizers and Indonesian entrees and shared them. Each was flavorful and authentic. All were mild for anyone's palate and chili sauce was added for a bit more heat for my palate. The whole family looks forward to a return visit and this new restaurant has our praise.More

The food here is fantastic and the service was great. Their menu is huge and very reasonably priced. We had a wide variety of items from the menu and all were delicious. I highly suggest this to anyone who is looking for lunch or dinner....I will be visiting again very soon.More
