About Batavia Corner
In the Perth suburb of East Victoria Park, Batavia Corner operates from a shopfront at 3/912 Albany Highway, within the same Albany Highway strip that has become something of an informal hub for Indonesian dining in the city. The restaurant takes its name from the Dutch colonial era name for Jakarta, a nod to the Betawi and broader Jakartan roots of much of its menu. It is open daily from 11am to 9pm and can be reached at +61 8 6364 0808 or through its own website, bataviacorner.com.
Reviews aggregated from Google and Tripadvisor give Batavia Corner a strong reputation locally: 4.4 out of 5 from nearly 800 Google reviews and 4.3 from Tripadvisor reviewers, figures that place it among the better reviewed Indonesian restaurants in the city. The menu runs from snacks to full meals. Starters include fried risoles, yellow rice, and a sweet Indonesian pancake, while the kitchen also prepares a steamed cake and house made beef tendon meatballs sold frozen for takeaway. Main dishes center on two Padang style rice platters, nasi Padang komplit, served with beef rendang and curry chicken, and nasi kuning komplit, the turmeric rice dish typically reserved for celebrations in Indonesia. The menu also includes nasi rawon, a dark beef soup flavored with buah keluak nuts distinctive to East Javanese cooking, and mee goreng Jawa, a Javanese fried noodle dish.
Reviewers have given a mixed response to the restaurant's sop buntut, an oxtail soup, with some describing it as oversalted, while sambal is offered on request for diners wanting extra heat. No halal certifying body was identified in sourcing for this listing, so halal status is not stated here. Taken together with its neighbors along Albany Highway, Batavia Corner forms part of a small but increasingly visible cluster of Indonesian restaurants that has grown in East Victoria Park over the past decade, broadening the Perth area's options for Indonesian home style cooking beyond the handful of long established venues already catalogued here.
