About Warung Lea Indonesia

Since opening in 2005, Warung Lea Indonesia has served the Indonesian community in Ansan, an industrial city in Gyeonggi Province roughly thirty kilometers southwest of central Seoul, rather than in Seoul itself as this listing previously indicated. Ansan is home to one of South Korea's largest concentrations of migrant workers, drawn by manufacturing jobs in the Banwol and Sihwa industrial complexes, and the city's Wongok-dong neighborhood in particular has developed into a hub of Southeast Asian and South Asian grocery stores, remittance offices, and restaurants. Warung Lea sits on the second floor of a building at 453 Jungang-daero, in the heart of this district. The restaurant has built a following over two decades for its rendang, along with other home style Indonesian dishes aimed at workers and students who want a taste of familiar food without traveling into Seoul. It maintains an active Instagram account under the handle lea_ansan and a Facebook page under Warung Lea Indonesia, both used to post daily specials and announcements rather than a fixed printed menu. No public phone number could be independently confirmed for the restaurant, and posted hours were not available from primary sources, so visitors are encouraged to check the restaurant's social media before visiting. Because Ansan is a distinct city from Seoul, separated by administrative boundaries as well as roughly an hour of transit time, this listing's city field has been corrected accordingly; Ansan already hosts other Indonesian establishments in this directory, including a bank branch and at least one other restaurant, reflecting the concentration of Indonesian residents in the area. Warung Lea's longevity, having operated under the same name and ownership structure for close to twenty years, sets it apart from many of the newer, more informal warungs that have opened around Korea's industrial towns in the past decade to serve the same migrant labor population.
