About Ria Ayam Penyet - Victoria Park

Victoria Park, a suburb bordering the Perth central business district on the eastern side of the Swan River, is home to a branch of Ria Ayam Penyet, a chain that built its reputation in Melbourne and Sydney before opening its first Western Australian store in 2023. The restaurant trades on a narrow menu built around its namesake dish: ayam penyet, chicken that is fried and then flattened with a mortar and pestle before being served with rice, a chili sambal, and kremes, a dusting of crisp fried crumbs that adds texture to the dish. The same smashing technique is applied to other proteins on the menu, producing variations such as prawns and eggplant prepared the same way at sister locations in other cities, alongside grilled items including caramelised beef ribs and chicken satay served on skewers. A separate menu item, crispy fish dumplings, rounds out the fried and grilled offerings. The Victoria Park location sits on Albany Highway, a major arterial road lined with restaurants representing cuisines from across Asia, including a cluster of other Indonesian eateries within walking distance. The restaurant operates daily from 11 in the morning until 9 at night, with no reported midweek closures. Local food coverage in Perth described the opening as notable because the Ria Ayam Penyet name had already built a following on the east coast of Australia before reaching Western Australia, a reputation that drew early interest when the Victoria Park store opened. The restaurant does not offer table service in the manner of a full sit-down restaurant, following the same casual, counter-order format used at the brand's other Australian locations. Because the business operates as one location within a small multi-city chain, menu items can vary slightly between stores, and this entry reflects the dishes documented specifically in connection with the Victoria Park location and the chain's broader Australian menu as reported in food media. The restaurant has not been independently confirmed as halal certified by a named certification body, so no halal claim is made here despite its inclusion in general roundups of halal-friendly dining options in Perth.
