Warung Sari - Pecatu

This Lil Warung is amazing! Despite the rating, I decided to give it a try and was pleasantly surprised by the authentic, delicious, and affordable food. I was able to converse with the staff in a bit of Indonesian and confirmed that their vegetarian dishes do not contain fish sauce, milk, or shrimp paste, which was a big plus for me when I tried their Nasi campur. Although they offered me shrimp crackers, they were understanding when I mentioned I am vegan. They made sure to provide me with affordable local veg options. I highly recommend this cozy local Warung.

Well, I was happy to find this little restaurant with a cheap menu and vegan options! While waiting for our dishes, I would like to register this restaurant at HappyCow. Unfortunately, I realized that the Vegan Gado-Gado had an egg upstairs... I ask the waiter why there is egg when there is a vegan dish? He took the egg away and now said that a vegan dish. Okay, I ate that, but the chips looked like crab chips, so I asked the waiter again. He said that these are seafood chips and did not understand what is wrong with the meal for me. I told him what veganism is about. I'd never go there again. The menu says vegan and you get egg and seafood chips... so sad that vegan is used as advertising... the restaurant does not even have an idea what vegan means.

This small Warung is fantastic! I decided to visit despite the negative review below, and I was pleasantly surprised by the authentic, delicious, and affordable food. I am able to speak a little Indonesian, so I was able to converse with the staff and confirm that their vegetarian dishes do not contain any fish sauce, dairy, or shrimp paste, which is great for those ordering from their Nasi Campur (local buffet style). I agree with the previous comment that they offered me shrimp crackers even though I mentioned I am vegan, but if you simply confirm in English that you do not want crackers or egg, you will receive amazing authentic vegan food. The young boys who work there may be used to serving dishes with crackers and egg, but they are understanding if you ask for them to be excluded. This is not a health food store, but a local establishment, so cut them some slack as they are trying to offer affordable local vegetarian food. I would definitely recommend this little local Warung.

I was delighted to discover this small restaurant with an affordable menu and vegan options! While waiting for our food, I decided to add this restaurant to HappyCow. Unfortunately, I noticed that the Vegan Gado-Gado had an egg on top... I asked the waiter why there was an egg on a vegan dish. He removed the egg and assured me that it was now truly vegan. However, the chips resembled crab chips, so I inquired with the waiter again. He explained that they were seafood chips and did not understand my concern. I explained the concept of veganism to him, but it was clear that the restaurant had a misunderstanding of what it meant to be vegan. I would not return to this restaurant. It is misleading to label a dish as vegan and then include egg and seafood chips. It's disappointing that veganism is used as a marketing ploy when the restaurant lacks a basic understanding of the lifestyle.

This little warung is excellent! Despite the low rating, I decided to give it a try and I was pleasantly surprised by the authentic, delicious, and affordable food. I had the opportunity to speak a bit of Indonesian with the staff and found out that their vegetarian dishes do not contain any fish sauce, milk, or shrimp paste, which is a huge plus for me, especially when ordering from their nasi campur (local buffet style). I also agree with the previous reviewer that they tried to offer me crack crackers, even though I stated that I am vegan. Overall, a great experience.
