The Corner By Siti in The Vale of Glamorgan

Have been wanting to make the visit for quite a while and while having something to celebrate I thought let's do it as it's about 45mins from home. I've been lucky enough to have been brought up with my mum's Indonesian food and it's hard to find in this part of the world now that I'm grown up but not able to have mum's anymore and I don't have the skills or patience to make my own. The food was amazing and I'm so glad we made the effort to make a visit and I'm sure it won't be the last! Was great to chat with Ian and Siti and look forward to going back...maybe in the day next time and we can appreciate the scenery of Llantwit Major ❤️❤️❤️

Just a pit stop. But, it has made us want to return. Great service Lovely food Clean and tidy A very friendly place

Have been a few times. Find the taste of the food incredible. The only problem we EVER have is picking a dish!!!!!! The explanation of the dishes by Ian is faultless. Went last night,train from Rhoose,and already planning next visit. A superb find for us. Thank you Siti.

An unbelievable cafe, one that I didn’t expect to find in Llanwit. The staff were so friendly happy to help with any queries you may have. Would recommend to book, as it isn’t the largest cafe but staff handled the call very well. Food was great with a large selection of vegan and vegetarian! Cater to allergens too. ⭐️⭐️⭐️

Another visit for lunch today! I had Babi Guling .. superb 🤩

It was such a pleasure to be served by Siti and her team. It was such a delicious and authentic meal to share with the family whilst reminiscing over growing up in Indonesia. Such a rare gem for this lovely, quiet area in Wales- I'm sure many would agree! ☺️ Thank you for your endless hardwork and dedication in promoting Indonesian cuisine. Terima kasih! Semoga sukses! ❤️🇮🇩

Wow, wow, wow, what a gem, truly authentic Indonesian cuisine. The service, atmosphere, cleanliness, and price were excellent. Extremely blown away with the flavours. You really don't need to travel halfway around the world for these authentic dishes.

My niece brings all her family here to eat - I can see why!the food is fantastic and great mix of Indonesian and home cooked delights. Service is exceptional, friendly and informative, can’t do enough for you. Super dooper can’t wait to be back.

What lovely find. After being turned away by 2 other establishments who didn't serve food between lunch and dinner we were delighted to get to Corner by SITI and get some food. We loved the menu of both British food and Indonesian. We opted for Indonesian and totally loved it. The owners were incredibly friendly and made us very welcome.

Food was excellent we had babi guling and nasi campus Padang, beef rendang version. Absolutely delicious. We had tiramisu and the best scone so light and fluffy. Will definitely visit again. Very warm welcome and lovely atmosphere.

Between 3 of us, we ordered 5 dishes- totally unnecessary (as the portions are generous), yet absolutely required! (to come across such authentic Indonesia food in remote Wales!) Both local (fabulous brunch) & exotic (can’t sign enough praises for the laksa, gado gado, and babi gurling we had) choices are spot on- the chef’s done incredible justice using ingredients from here & afar. We left happy, and feeling a bit unwise for the long drive ahead🤣 a total gem- thanks and all the best!

Wow! What a find. An absolute gem. This restaurant alone is worth a drive to Llantwit Major. The cuisine is amazing. Great menu, a really good place for a catch up with friends or just pop in for some Chicken Satay as we did. I cannot praise this venue enough. Simply the best. Thank you to all the team working there. See you again -soon.

As a South East Asian from Singapore this was an unexpectedly pleasant find! The food was delicious an incredible comfort for someone away from home and missing regional cuisine. Would definitely recommend!!

Came here for brunch with our dogs, so glad to have found somewhere in Llantwit that allows them in. The food was lovely, really good quality, especially the sausages which come from the local butchers. The reason I knocked off a star however was because I requested my poached egg be changed to something like scrambled, because I was pregnant at the time and nervous about eating raw egg (as poached eggs can sometimes be a little under-done in order to preserve the runny yolk). When I asked this, I was told (quite rudely) they don't do adjustments. I thought it was a joke at first. After explaining why I wanted the change, they said the best they could do is give me a well done poached egg. This was fine, but I just found the interaction a little odd and ultimately they did adjust my meal so I didn't really understand the issue. Overall it was good, I was happy with my meal and everyone else enjoyed theirs. I just think the service could have been slightly more polite.

A very nice little cafe. Good service and great food. A good range of Indonesian and European dishes. I had a Balinese pork belly dish - Babi Guleng, and it was delicious. Recommended

Excellent freshly cooked food, booked for 1.30 and we were told that everything is cooked to order. The wait was around 30 minutes. Cannot fault the quality or service

Once again never disappointed with chefs Siti, the food was lovely …very nice indeed as always 👍👍 Thank you Siti for your service and excellent food…we will be back for some more!!

Nice clean café serving astonishing food, both Brit and Indonesian. I had beef rendang and it was absolutely gorgeous.

Fantastic authentic indonesian food. The nasi goreng with tempeh satay was absolutely lovely. Family run business with husband front of house and wife the chef. Great service and always good to see 5* on the Food Hygiene Rating

The Indonesian food is very good and we enjoyed what we ate, however after ordering, the owner came to our table to complain that we had not ordered enough food especially since we had brought our own alcohol because this affected his profit. It is not licensed and it advertises that it is byob. He made it clear that we were not welcome. We had ordered 3 starters and 2 main courses and would have had dessert had the kitchen been able to provide it. We were silenced by this and in hindsight wish we had left then.The young man who served us was charming.

We went to Corner by Siti for their balinese taster night for valentines day and the food was incredible. We had so much food, tried new things, there was a mix of everything and it was something we had never experienced before, right in the middle of Llantwit Major. You could bring your own bottle of wine, free corkage, and the complimentary rose was a treat. Highly recommended!

Bring your own booze to a venue with great food, what's not to like. Excellent

Great food and you can take your own alcohol.

Phenomenal food and great service. 10/10. We will definitely return 👍

My partner and I met in Bali and live locally - so we love coming here. The food is the BEST. So yummy, great portions, awesome veggie options. Always planning our next visit!

Lovely proper homemade food. Unfortunately some oriental herbs are not to my palate, but that does not detract from the overall quality. the breakfasts with their homemade sourdough is tremendous. the pastrami, which is homemade is out of this world. The owners are extremely pleasant, it's a vocation, not a job. I don't as often as I should... I don't know why, but I aim to make a conscious effort from now on.

Very tasty, fresh and excellently presented food. Ian is excellent at taking care of people. Highly recommended and we will definitely be back regularly.

2nd visit … eating the Indonesian menu - delicious. We had Benjamin Jawa and Nasi Goreng both with chicken satay .. tasty. We’re working our way through the options :)

Came here for morning coffee and scone - great atmosphere, drinks and service. Went for a walk along the coast and then came back for lunch (having been intrigued by the Indonesian menu). Nice lunch, really good and interesting food and again great service. Would highly recommend 👍👍

As a Dutch person, I was pleasantly surprised to come across an Indonesian restaurant. We had a delicious lunch here. The local and Indonesian dishes are of very good quality, I can definitely recommend this restaurant for its food, price/quality, service and atmosphere.

First time visit today for lunch and we were really impressed. The food was delicious, with lots of choice and a big yes from me for the vegan options! Just loved the friendly easy going vibe in the restaurant. Will be back soon for sure. Thank you!

A great place to eat - wonderful Indonesian menu with lots of vegetarian options - very tasty dishes. Excellent service and great value.

I was here with my family. Making reservation was greeted by Ian who was the owner of the restaurant, and the captain of the front of the house. :) We had an amazing afternoon, extended hours lunch as we were taking our time to savour the Indonesian delightful cuisine. I am from Indonesia, the minute I arrived at the restaurant, the warmest friendly welcome from both Ian and Siti (the chef!) took me back home instantly. Everything we ordered was very tasty. If only I don't live 250 miles away, I would have come here every week! Thank you Ian and Siti, we have truly enjoy your hospitality and we hope to see you soon!! Leah and the Colombianos

Called in for a late lunch. Didn’t really know what we fancied and were greeted with an extensive menu, everything sounded delicious! We opted for a brunch and 2 Indonesian dishes. All superb, quality and flavour amazing and portion sizes were really good too. Service was excellent, lovely to hear about the dishes along with recommendations, super friendly and welcoming. Will definitely return as we had such a wonderful meal and can’t wait to try out more of the dishes! A real quality find.

Friendly service excellent food.Recommend will certainly return.

Absolutely delicious meal, nicely spiced and very fresh. Atmosphere was great, the staff could not do enough to make sure we had a great time. Will definitely be going back soon! Highly recommend the specials - particularly the pork belly woku, and the desserts!

Fantastic surprise to find authentic delicious Indonesian cuisine in rural Wales. Very friendly, attentive service. Food freshly made. We had Beef Rendang and the Tonseng Kambing special.

My friend and I visited here, as we were let down by another restaurant locally. We were extremely lucky to have ended up eating here! The food is fresh, different and extremely tasty!. The service was impeccable, felt extremely relaxed and welcomed. You can also bring your own alcohol which is great as I spent more on the food! Cannot recommend highly enough, What a brilliant food experience... Thank you!

We enjoyed generous portions of delicious, locally sourced produce. Good veggie options available. The decor was tasteful and the service friendly. Great find.

We visited the restaurant to celebrate my Mums 60th birthday. I was initially a little nervous as the only vegetarian of the group a number of the dishes were not available having already sold out at lunchtime; however I needn’t have been as the restaurant provided an alternative which was delicious. The best nasi goreng I have eaten outside of Indonesia. Everyone commented what delicious food it was. Thank you for providing great service and really tasty wholesome food that is hard to find these days. We will be back!

Been here a couple of times now whilst visiting family and each time it has been great. The food they cook for you is delicious. This is going to be a regular thing from now on everytime we come down to stay. They don't have an alcohol licence though, but you're welcome to take your own in to drink.👍🏻

A very nice dine in experience, with excellent food and service, and an added bonus of BYO. 4 of us dined on Saturday and we all thoroughly enjoyed our starters and main course. Unfortunately no room for a dessert. Given the opportunity we will definitely return.

Nice little place with interesting menu

Had breakfast here. Was delicious. Very friendly service, cosy atmosphere. Wishing the owners all the best from the Ferryhill girls.

Once again we had fabulous meal at the corner by Siti. Fresh, delicious and authentic. Highly recommended

We had lunch with my frend the food so amazing very delicious very recommended will come back againt to try defren food.

A lovely unassuming cafe from the outside - while my husband was working here I found somewhere to have coffee … which was just the right amount of smooth, yet rich and full. Having seen the brunch menu I decided it sounded too good to not try and WOW - outstanding …. What a pleasant surprise Thank you

Once again we had a fabulous meal cooked by Sitti, there's a few new dishes to try,fresh tasty, well presented food, Sitti is a chef that cares about what she produces out of her kitchen, try it, you won't be dissapointed. Her home made puddings are amazing, Ian does a wonderful job at the front of house.Thanks guys keep up the good work x

After several day-time visits, this was our first booking for dinner. After making choices from the table menu we spotted a specials board. Something to have a go at next time! My wife and I shared a starter and after enjoying canned drinks, we started on the bottle of wine we brought with us. The main meals were fabulous, as pictured. They were a triumph of amazing taste and mild heat. Our service was friendly, attentive and slick. The whole experience was fabulous.

We had a soup of the day and desserts. Both were amazing. The desserts are absolutely delicious!😍

Our third delightful meal in this special place. Amazing food and spot-on service once again.

The service and ambience were great, my salad wasn't big but the taste was great. My wife's soup was also good. The prices are not cheap but okay.

Excellent food in a charming, chilled out atmosphere. You can take your own alcohol.

Went to visit for my birthday. Uncomplicated & simply decorated with beautiful wall-pieces and soft music. Food doesn’t disappoint with a lovely satay tempeh and spring rolls . I also chose the celebration dish and it was a delight. The couple run it do it with simplified grace. Highly recommend! No photos as we enjoyed all too fast :)

Fabulous little restaurant, food is always delicious and fresh, never disappoints, breakfasts are fab too, highly recommended.

Oh this is good, this is very good. Nice choice of Welsh cafe food on one side and great Indonesian dishes on the other. Add excellent and friendly service and as delicious a cup of coffee as I can remember for a while and job well done. Did I mention the crumble? Sublime.

great little gem of a place. food is epic! Couldn't decide on what to have so ordered take away as well! great attention and. service. will be back soon!

Really nice Indonesian street food, well balanced in flavour and well presented yet very reasonably priced.

Lovely lunch here today. The food was amazing - absolutely delicious. Service was good too - not intrusive but attentive and friendly. This lovely place is worth a visit. In fact, if you don't visit you've missed a culinary gem.

Wow! Decided to have some lunch last week and OMG my tastebuds have had a party! The food was absolutely stunning! I highly recommend this place. The decor is lovely and service warm and friendly but the food is sooo tasty and you can tell...

Fantastic Indonesian food in wales , I had my Gado Gado today… and it’s superb .. not only delicious but also very healthy . And I had siti’s scone , it’s spectacular 😍 thank you mba siti xx

What a surprise and a delight to discover this little gem on a corner of Llantwit Major! Went looking for a lunchtime sandwich and found this 'Art cafe' offering a cornucopia of tempting traditional fare but especially delicious Indonesian dishes. Wasn't too surprised to read...

We popped in with our trainee guide dog for a snack. It was a great experience of the cafe aspect of this smart restaurant. We had foamy hot chocolate and a warm scone with delicious jam and cream.

Amazing place. Traditional English and Indonesian specials as well. The Beef Laksa was fantastic. Be prepared to get messy.....and full

Popped in for a late lunch on a damp day, blown away by the quality of the food. We ate fish cakes and the chicken satay, followed by a cream tea and lemon cheesecake. Lovely staff as well

Came to siti for valentine's day with my partner and had a lovely time. It's very clean there, the atmosphere was exactly what we were after, calm, not too quiet, and most of all, the food was fantastic. Authentic Indonesian food that you simply cannot beat! Thank you, see you again and again!

A fantastic place! The food is great and you can really taste the care put by the chef in preparing every dish. Wide variety of choice, British or Indonesian, so lucky to have a place like this in Llantwit Major!

Wonderful fresh authentic food.

Combining traditional brunch options with an Indonesian menu is a real surprise and a treat. Good value, tasty food, good service. Authentic Indonesian food.

Authentic Indonesian food in Llantwit Major! Want a find! A late lunch following a long coastal walk with the dog, we were delighted to find this dog friendly (and customer friendly) spot. The service was friendly and low key - like being welcomed by an...

Delicious food freshly cooked. And full of interest. And a lovely welcome. We are so lucky to live just round the corner. Thank you very much.

Love the ambience in the restaurant. Beautifully presented food.

Good food and good service but a bit expensive for what it was.

This was our third visit and we returned fot the freshly cooked and very interesting food. This is a very small establishment so you will be guaranteed the personal touch in the food and service. If you want good Indonesian food, this is the place...

Excellent Brunch options, not just the usual fare, street food options look interesting to, will have to go back to try them.

Delicious authentic food always. Good portions and lovely service. Couldn’t recommend enough

10/10 Really really really good! They serve English food and Indonesian. We had a nasi goreng and a beef laksa. Both superb and authentic! Best Indonesian food we've ever had in the UK. Will come back again.

We popped in for food at 3.30 and was absolutely delighted with the quality of the cuisine, the friendliness of the staff and the bonus of being allowed to bring your own wine with no corkage fees! Highly recommend this intimate stylised venue, but booking...

Good quality food and service, affordable prices

Visiting the area we were recommended this and SO glad we phoned up and booked a table. The small cafe-like spot is an unexpected place to find incredible Indonesian food. Staff were super friendly and the service was excellent Couldn't recommend enough to explore something...

Came here yesterday with my family and it was delicious (with lots of vegan-friendly options) - we went for the vegetarian spring rolls, the Gado Gado, and the tofu Nasi Campur Bali. All brilliant with friendly service and we had a great time.

Having grown up in South East Asia - I can honestly say, Siri’s food tastes like home. They were very careful to cater to my allergies, and very kind about it! We had the spring rolls to start - not your average spring roll. These were huge, crispy and piping hot! For mains, I had the Nasi Goreng with Chicken Satay - the sauce was delicious and the rice was cooked perfectly and was packed full of veggies. I can’t recommend enough!

Cracking breakfast couldn't ask for more thank you so much for a touch of class

I’ve worked in Indonesia and Malaysia for long stints. This little restaurant is brilliant and takes me straight back to SE Asia. Absolutely authentic in all respects. Delicious laksa. Nice people. (Bring-your-own-bottle — saves ££s!)

We visited by chance while on holiday nearby and had a delicious lunch suitable for people with gluten-free and vegetarian diets. Our food was made fresh to order, and was really tasty with good-size portions and friendly service. What a lucky find - I wish...

Someone told me that Siti is cordon-bleu trained - I don't know if it's true but I can certainly believe it. All of her food from homemade salt beef to crispy caramelised tofu, to her native Indonesian specials is beautifully and carefully prepared. Lunchtimes -...

Lovely Indonesian food, we all enjoyed our lunch very much.

My mother and myself visited this wonderful gem of a place today. Firstly I was struck by the cleanliness. Greeting us was the owner. He was very friendly and professional. We ordered a coffee and a cappuccino, delicious. Along with that the lemon cheesecake. Well, what can I say but AMAZING! It was the most delicious cheesecake I've ever tasted. The owner explained that it was a set cheesecake and not a baked one. We can't wait to return with friends in a few weeks. I also intend to go for an evening meal with my husband and then with friends to sample the Indonesian food. You must visit this lovely place. It's quaint, beautifully run and scrupulously clean. It's a pleasure for me to write such a positive review. It's so nice to find a family run business of this quality. Wish I'd taken a photo of the cheesecake 🙄, I was too busy savouring every mouthful! 😄

Popped into Siti for an evening meal with family. Very friendly and attentive staff explained the menu. The Indonesian food was excellent and the substantial portions very good value. The restaurant allows you to take in your own drinks so works out even cheaper than...

It was great to find a place in the vicinity that serves Indonesian food. We enjoyed a lovely lunch of spring rolls and gado gado accompanied by teh melati (jasmin tea). Being of Indonesian descent and having visited the country several times, the food tasted...

Lovely coffee and a chocolate cake with raspberries to die for!

We called in on the off chance for lunch. How lovely to eat at a husband / wife run venue. We were given excellent information on the menu. The veggie spring roll starters were delicious. Husband had beef rendang. Beef was so tender, and the...

Been three or four times now and never disappointed. Fabulous food, perfectly cooked and presented with great service - friendly and welcoming (and, dog-friendly). Recommend highly!

Excellent food as always, never disappointed every time we went there. Food was delicious and very tasty, friendly staff and not to forget The owner the chefs herself was excellent 👍 recommended to visit this restaurant The corner by Siti ..fabulous!!!

This place is a real gem and an unexpected find in Llantwit Major. The menu has two sides. One is the normally expected English food whist the other side had Indonesian food. I had to be adventurous and try a meal from the other side...

What a totally gorgeous weekend lunch at this surprising little place. Tucked away in this small welsh town - this was a real find. You can taste that everything is homemade. Every flavour was just delicious, the ingredients and how they blended together was just...

I've just had lunch there, I had the beef rendang and it was absolutely superb. This is without doubt one of the best eating establishments in Glamorgan.

Well worth a visit, lovely food, and friendly staff...

The ONLY place for authentic and beautifully prepared Indonesian cuisine in South Wales. An absolute must.

We went and we truly really want to love this place, it is fantastic to see the non-typical cuisines opening up in south wales, I think we are all bored of the choice of bad westernised Chinese/curry houses. We left disappointed. The highlight of the meal was the starter Gado Gado, although the sauce could use a little work. We were a group of 4 so we took a good selection of the starters and mains so we could all try the various flavours. The main courses were all different on the menu however they all seemed to be based off of the same two sauces, basically tasted the same with a variation of either rice or noodle with a different protein. The Black glutinous rice for desert, which we were really looking forward too as this is a favourite of ours was completely wrong, the rice was more like a slab of cake with coconut milk poured over it rather than the delicious rice pudding like texture it is supposed to be. There is a lot of potential in this restaurant but I personally believe that the owners have skewed the menu too far to what they believe British tastes are, and are loosing the magic of authentic Indonesian cuisine. This was shown when we were warned repeatedly by the husband that the main we were ordering were hot and were we ok with that, when we answered to the affirmative we were looking forward to a nice hot main, it wasn't at all, it was mild. They still came over to check it wasn't too hot for us! Please trust your customers, mark on your menu if its hot and actually make it authentically hot. Is great to see new restaurants opening up, would love to see this place make a proper go of it, but calling it a Indonesian restaurant seems a bit of a stretch at the moment, maybe Indonesian Inspired?
