Food was okay but the closest thing to Indonesian is only the corn fritters, it’s simple but good. We come here usually only for the lobster noodles, we tried a lot of food here but nothing really stand out. But definitely try the lobster noodle!

The food was very good but i felt it didnt have the punch southeast asian food has. Almost like it was sanded down and sanitized to reach a western audience. As someone with southeast asian family that kinda irks me but otherwise the food was good and the service and atmosphere was immaculate

Went for restaurant week and the family style dinner was unreal. Fried chicken was amazing, shrimp was so flavorful— even the string beans were fantastic. Only ding is for the rice, it lacked real flavor. It’s also huge and roomy and the atmosphere and service is wonderful. Would go back!!

Make plans to eat here soon. Great seasoning. Fair costs and pleasant service. The establishment responds to community needs. Top-level employee attention. I'm absolutely returning to this place.

Always have a great time here! The food is always fantastic quality. Love the freshness and variety of menu options and yum cocktails. Tried the restaurant week Tumpeng feast most recently and every component was excellent. Attentive and quick service too, perfect date night spot!

NOT authentic Indonesian restaurant. I dont think there is much (if any) Indonesin staff, so there is little cultural knowledge about traditional dishes. So do not come here expecting that, you will be disappointed. I even considered leaving because of how alienated I felt...I stayed anyways and am glad I did.
The sate was SO delicious. The meat was incredibly tender and well seasoned. Reminds me of how soft the chicken is in Indonesia. The fried rice was so well made too, delicious, well seasoned, and crispy. The dishes are very well put together, with a lot of love and impressive craftsmanship,

Always a great time dinning at Wayan. Service is amazing and food is even better. Their music selection is always on point and creates a great dinning atmosphere. Would love them upgrade the speakers to enhance the overall experience.

I love the lobster noodle and cucumber mango salad ! It was delish ! Love the decor and great service too ! ;)
Great food with interesting flavors. Pretty room, friendly service - looking forward to going back soon!
Food was really good but the service wasn't great. The hostess couldn't find my reservation and was being weird about finding us a table even though it was empty. There was only one waiter and he was actually great. Super super helpful and kind but he was the only one working all the tables so naturally it took forever to get water, order, get our check.
Our second time at Wayan and truly the food is beyond compare — inventive, delicious, and even traditional indonesian elements here and there. Love the intimate, beautiful, festive space.
Ordered:
escargot rendang - very v nice (9/10)
Lobster noodles - good carbs (7/10)
Duck - okay (6/10)
Fritters - v nice (8/10)
Banana pudding - 8/10
Overall food was really good, vibes were nice on a Friday night playing Afro beats
