Batan's Waru Review

Tucked away on a pleasant side street, Batan's Waru is particularly atmospheric at night, when the entrance is lit with candles. The ambitious menu has traditional dishes beyond the usual suspects, and plenty of vegetarian options. For an appetizer, try urap pakis, wild fern tips with roasted coconut and spices, or lemper ayam, chicken dumplings simmered in a banana leaf. The spicy hummus comes with grilled-pepper flatbread and tomato-mint relish. The restaurant also does smoked duck and a babi guleng feast, with a day's advance order, and there is a full menu of pasta, sandwiches, and light fare as well. Finish off with a perfect cup of Illy-brand espresso.

About Our System

Frommer's ranks every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment it reviews for quality, value, service, amenities, and special features using a star-rating scale, an expression of the strong compare-and-contrast opinions that are a brand hallmark.

Other ratings provide stars based primarily on price and amenities; the Frommer's star rating is meant to quantify the kind of intangible, experiential elements that help travelers make informed decisions.

The "baseline" recommendation is zero stars--every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment that Frommer's chooses to review is recommended; otherwise, we simply wouldn't include it.
