Founded in 2007, Betawi is a multi-award winning Indonesian Restaurant renowned for its longevity and consistent exotic Asian flavours, which has become highly regarded in the culinary scene.
Our Founder, Isti, an Indonesian national, living in Dubai for many years had become so nostalgic of her favourite dishes from home that she took the leap to open her own restaurant in 2007.
15 years on, after recently moving to Brisbane, Isti is excited to be bringing her passion for traditional recipes to Indooroopilly. She looks forward to meeting and introducing her specialty dishes to the local community.
The name “Betawi” was taken from the old capital city of Indonesia, Batavia, now known as Jakarta.
Our Cuisine is by nature highly original, spicy and exciting in its ingredients, preparation and presentation.
All dishes are freshly prepared daily by local Indonesian Chefs using only specially chosen ingredients, including authentic imported herbs, spices and sauces. Our dishes do not contain added MSG.
Our restaurant provides a friendly and relaxed environment allowing guests to feel at home while dinning.
