Betawi Grill serves fascinating food. The two dining areas are pretty. The front room is less formal, with a high ceiling, hanging and track lights, a large bar, and tables with colorful lacquered tops. The rear dining room features white tablecloths and colorful and attractive paintings. Tables are nicely spaced.
Service is conscientious.
Appetizers include good egg rolls, both deep-fried and soft, and tender satays of beef and chicken. Another fine choice is a pancake of thin dough filled with minced beef, scallion, onion, and egg that is pan-fried. Salads are good as a shared appetizer or a main course. An unusual preparation is a salad of calamari with a vinaigrette dressing that could pass for a peanut sauce. The dozen or so main courses sampled provided no duds and several very good choices.
