Curious how a West Jakarta duck spot earned 4.9 stars? Dapur Waris offers an unbeatable deal for around 75k per person! Feast on their signature sweet 'Bebek Gosong' or the spicy 'Bebek Goreng Madura' in a newly renovated, stylish space. The best part is the unlimited refills of three types of rice and iced tea. This spot delivers incredible flavor and value, making it a must-try dining experience for anyone craving delicious duck.
Honestly, long-time fans who often hang around the Puri area in the West must remember the old-school duck spot, Bebek HT. I passed by recently and saw it had a huge makeover and was renamed Dapur Waris! I was wondering if the owner had changed, but when I went in, hey, it was still that same familiar Surabaya flavor, just that the ambiance got a major upgrade, turning it into a stylish restaurant.
The renovated space is spacious and bright with a very modern feel. It has both indoor and outdoor seating, making it a super impressive spot to Nongkrong with friends or for a family gathering. But to be honest, it gets crazy packed during mealtimes, and the background music can be a bit loud sometimes[1]. For friends who want to Chill and chat, I'd recommend coming during off-peak hours.
Menu Must-Tries, Order These Without Hesitation!
Of course, you come here for the duck! The stars of the menu have to be these two signature dishes:
The absolute best part is that the rice and iced tea come with free refills![2] Plus, for the rice, you have three options: white rice, red rice, and coconut rice. The value for money is just off the charts. For around 75k[3] per person, you can eat until you're stuffed. Who could possibly resist that!
- Bebek Gosong (Burnt Duck)[4]: The name sounds a bit like a culinary disaster, but it's actually a sweet-style grilled duck. The skin is grilled to a fragrant char, and the meat is so tender it falls off the bone. That sweet sauce with rice is simply Mantap! The top choice for anyone who can't handle spice.
- Bebek Goreng Madura (Maduranese Fried Duck)[5]: Lovers of bold flavors, this one's for you! The accompanying bumbu hitam (black spice) is to die for. It's addictively fragrant and spicy but not greasy at all. I could devour three bowls of rice mixed with this sauce!
No Hype, No Hate, Just Some Real Talk
While the duck is so good it'll make you say Anjay, the place isn't without its downsides. Some of the side dishes are just average. For instance, the Sayur Asem I ordered tasted pretty mediocre and was a bit too salty. So, my advice is to save both your budget and your appetite for the duck.
Also, parking is extremely limited![6] There are only a few spots right in front, and during mealtimes, you basically have to fight for one. For friends who are driving, take note, here's a guide to avoid the hassle below.
✍️ Editor's Pro-Tips (Take notes, people!)
- Parking: Don't wait endlessly for a spot in front of the restaurant! Drive straight to the area next to Capital Bakery (in front of the restaurant), where they have a dedicated parking lot. Or, you can park at the nearby Ranch Market and walk over; it's only a minute away[7].
- Timing: It gets extremely crowded during peak lunch and dinner hours. If you want to avoid waiting in line, go early or book for a weekday lunch, where they have super value set meals[8].
- Pets: You can bring your fur babies! But they must be in a carrier and are only allowed in the outdoor seating area[9].
- Ordering: For your first visit, go straight for the Bebek Gosong and Bebek Goreng Madura—you absolutely can't go wrong! And don't forget that rice and iced tea have free refills[10], so eat to your heart's content
- 75k/person! [1] Unlimited rice & iced tea (white, red, nasi lemak). Insane value! [2]
- Don't fear 'Burnt Duck'! [3] Sweet roast duck: crispy, tender meat, sweet sauce with rice. Non-spicy? Dive in!
- Bold flavor fans, must-order! Madura Fried Duck + bumbu hitam black spice[4] = amazing! Fragrant, spicy, non-greasy. Perfect with rice!
