Tuti's Kitchen

My husband and I went to Bali in August for our honeymoon and completely fell in love with the culture and the food. When we came home, we tried recreating some of our favorite dishes, but they just didn’t compare. We really wanted something authentic, made by someone who truly knows what they’re doing. That’s when we found Tuti’s Kitchen, a new Indonesian mobile food truck in Tampa that opened in October. I hesitated at first because it didn’t have many reviews yet and it’s located in a parking lot, but I’m so glad my husband talked me into going. It ended up being one of the best experiences we’ve had since Bali. Tuti and her team were warm, welcoming, and so passionate about sharing Indonesian food and culture. We brought our dogs with us, and they immediately brought out water bowls

I tried Tuti’s kitchen recently, and everything was absolutely delicious! You can taste the care and authenticity in every bite Chicken Satay: Tender, juicy, and grilled just right with a perfect smoky flavor. The peanut sauce was creamy, rich, and perfectly balanced With white rice Coconut Curry Chicken: So flavorful and comforting! The curry was silky and full of coconut flavor with just the right touch of spice. The chicken was tender and soaked up all that amazing sauce perfect with rice. Beef Rendang Combo: the beef is Halal and slow cooked for 4 hours The combo served with coconut yellow rice, stirfry noodles, and a seasoned hard boiled egg . Definitely savory and satisfying Mini Potato Balls: Crispy on the outside, soft and fluffy inside , Serve served with sweet chili sauce.

Finally!! Indonesian food in Tampa! The service is incredible, they’re really warm and welcoming. I love that this food truck is clean and has a tent & chair to sit down & eat. As of for the food, Tuti puts her heart on the food. We ordered beef rendang combo, curry chicken and bakso kuah. They are all SO GOOD. Feels like home. Bakso kuah (indonesian pho) is a perfect hearty meal with clear beef broth & meatballs, it’s my favorite of all— especially to eat it during rainy weather. The portion is fulfilling as well!! If you’re in town and want to try Indonesian food or just hungry, come visit them!

Absolutely delicious! This food truck is run by a super sweet Indonesian lady, and you can taste the authenticity. The menu is small (which I love) because everything is fresh. I tried the bakso kuah and the rendang wrap — both were light, flavorful, and perfect.

So excited to have an Indonesian place to eat! Tuti is so friendly and her food was absolutely delicious! Had the Satay with Coconut Rice and the Nasi Goreng. Food was fresh, hot and tasted fantastic! Brought back a lot of memories of my Mama and Oma's cooking. Looking forward to coming back soon.
