Batam 88 — Restaurant in Kuta

The dining experience at Batam 88 in Bali was the worst place I have eaten at in my five years of visiting the island. My god, they charged us nearly $40 for two meals! We decided to order noodles and squid, but what we received was nothing short of a disappointment. The noodles tasted like a reheated instant noodles packet that had been cooked in a microwave for two minutes, and the squid was so rubbery it felt like we were eating a rubber boot. Despite these issues, I must emphasize that the staff, particularly the waitress, was incredibly nice and accommodating. I believe it wasn't the fault of the staff, but rather the management that led to such a disappointing experience. The poor quality of the food and the exorbitant prices were likely beyond their control. Judging by the reviews on Google, it's not surprising that this place has such a bad reputation. I rarely leave negative reviews, but even after taking a day to calm down, I was still appalled by the low quality of the food and the exorbitant prices. If you're reading this, please do yourself a favor and go elsewhere. Avoid...

Food - OK Ambience - Can be better Location - Good Price - Expensive Recommended - Sea Food as Near to Beach

The food is highly over priced and not a good ambience as well, bali people need fo learn English if they welcome foreign tourist, food is divided into small medium and large portions, other places gives rice with fish and they don't, basic and old style furniture, near by to kuta beach, parking can be difficult at peak hours, best way...

pretty empty during Covid but taste is still pretty good. hits the spot if your craving grilled fish. they have different prices for different meal sizes. huge menu, with a lot of side options. the lights are a bit too bright but the live band was actually decent and the service is quick. worth a shot when walking downtown beachside kuta; you can pale right across from the entrance or in their own area for free....
