10. Spring Hill Restaurant

This restaurant is located in the grounds of Spring Hill Bungalows, although it seems to be a separate business. We sampled delicious dishes such as spinach with shrimp paste and sautéed green beans. The Japanese pork loin was tender and juicy. Everything was refined and delicious.We were, however, a bit disappointed by the large amount of fried dishes, which narrowed down our selection quite a bit, since we dislike deep fried foods. One suggestion: why not add a dessert list? At least for fresh fruits or ice cream.The staff was friendly and helpful.

Good food, kind waitress, serving is pretty fast. If you don't take an entree, the mains are too small, therefore the price is a bit high for Indonesia.

We went there to have some traditional Indonesian food. It was very fresh and was prepared quickly for us so that we could eat all at the same time. The couple who was running the restaurant could speak English very well (which is quite difficult to find in Ruteng) and the lady was cooking in the kitchen. They were super friendly and even drove us back to the hotel as we didnât have any taxi! This place is totally recommendable!Dear Sir/Madam,We would like to say thank you to your excellent review to Rumah Makan Chacha Ruteng. We really really happy and appreciate that! Enjoy your next trip to explore Indonesia. Once again thank you very much!Warmest regards,Jofan & YayukOwner

Don't miss this sweet place. Owner Chris offers a succulent menu of Indonesian dishes and will customize your order if he is able. We visited 3 times and received excellent service and great food each time. Dishes are prepared fresh so make sure you are not in any rush. Chris is super laidback, has a lot of helpful local knowledge and speaks fluent English which is a rarity in these parts of Indonesia. It was great to get to know him and meet his family. He helped us with finding fresh chicken, data for our phones and gave us a lot of information about the local area. Besides a wide variety of dishes to choose from, Pato Resto also offers fresh juices. I recommend the mixed juice which included banana papaya and lime I think, not sure but whatever it was it was delicious. Oh yeah, also he had the coldest beer in town! Cheers to Chris and his family! They made our time in Riung very special! Terima kasih banyak Meggie.Hope that you return home safely.HORAS!

We really enjoyed the handmade cocktails at happy hour. Nice, appropriately priced foods that we could share. Good variety. Interesting cocktails (not just the basic). Donât pop in here âquickly.â A quality cocktail takes a minute to make. With games available to play, a pool to swim in - pull some chairs together and hang out a while!

Typical example of how things can get wrong when you leave it to laymen â even with the best intentions in the world: things go well... until they go wrong! We went there for a romantic dinner on my husbandâs birthday and were warmly welcomed by the staff. We ordered appetizers with cocktails: the appetizers were ok, except that the sauces (the one for the spring rolls as well as the so-called « peanut sauce » for the meatballs, which by the way contained no peanut...) were both so spicy that we couldnât eat them. We asked for sweet soy sauce as a replacement, but had to remind the waiter twice, until we finally got it â and by then, our appetizers were obviously cold. Then the « improvised barman » came with a small table to prepare « live cocktails ». That was cute (he was cute too), but he left his instruments fall twice on the floor and put them straight back into our cocktails... Oops! Finally, although we had not yet finished our main dishes and although it was not even 7:15pm, the staff decided to noisily move the tables and chairs back and forth without lifting them (just by dragging them). It was so noisy that we couldnât even listen to each other. That was the end of our dinner: we were so disappointed that we didnât even finish our plates. We then realized we were the only clients left on the terrace: no wonder, with such a treatment...Apparently, people go there to have drinks and to enjoy the beautiful sunset, but they leave right after (sunset is around 5:30 to 6 pm) â contrary to us, who choose to have dinner there... That was obviously a bad choice on our part. Never again.Dear 581it,Thank you for your review and feedback during your recent visit at Atlantis On The Rock.We are happy to hear that you enjoyed our location, the comfort of our facilities as well as the attentiveness of the team members.

Sari Rasa is a great way to learn about Indonesian (Javanese) warung food. Very simple menu of local favorites made with care from local ingredients and no MSG. And you donât have to be embarrassed by ignorance, the delightful owner loves to explain in his excellent English. If you already know then itâs just great local street food in a spotless environment.
