These add-ons introduce a delightful contrast in texture and flavor, complementing the rich, savory soup perfectly. Pairing the soto with rice or lontong further enriches the meal, catering to varied preferences and making it a versatile option for both hearty and light meals.

What Guests Say
Guestbook
“ We drop by lunch from Dieng to Magelang Delicious Soto Sapi = beef soup in Wonosobo Soto Ayam = chicken soup also good. ”
“ Soto sapi very tasty, the salted egg was not as good as Brebes salted egg, but it was ok. Service is ok. We came too early so we didn't have the chance to eat gorengan. Price is also very affordable. Recommended. ”
“ Great soto! The taste is a bit sweeter than Semarang or Solo style soto, but not too sweet. It is also a bit salty/savory. It uses cubed beef cuts that are quite tender and bean sprouts. The soto in Wonosobo is accompanied by servings of tempe kemul, which is tempe with thin, crepe-like batter around it (which to me tasted of chives and a bit of kencur), fried until crisp. Everything was great and food here is cheap! IDR 22k for a bowl of beef soto and IDR 3k per piece of tempe. ”
“ I think EDS beef soto deserves to be an alternative to mainstream soto Madura or Soto Surabaya, especially for non Wonosobo residents or in general, Central Java. It is sweet and savory, with tender lean meat. It can be paired with rice or lontong. Or just the soto itself. I chose soto + lontong. Delicious! ”
“ I didn't expect the soto to taste sweet, but I did finish mine. The beef was very tender. The portion was decent. You could also add toppings like tempe kemul or other gorengan. The place was very clean, but it had no AC inside. Service was okay. Street parking space was limited for cars. The price was affordable, spent IDR 60k for 2 pax. QRIS payment was available. ”
