Dine and Discover: Indonesia Dining Picks

Step into a restaurant and discover the world – or a whole new world. Food can whisk you away to an entirely different country, or teach you about history, culture, art and technology. Here are some unique fine dining restaurants in Jakarta from which you’ll emerge with a new perspective.

Namaaz Dining

Cooking is not just an art – it’s also a science. Get ready for a bold new twist on Indonesian dishes at Namaaz, where self-taught chef Andrian Ishak taps on scientific techniques to re-interpret traditional foods.

He’s an entertainer, an innovator and an artiste. And his boundless creativity and dedication to the art and science of cooking is on display with fun and elevated courses presented by servers with flair. His food showcases his command of the kitchen and will thrill your tastebuds and pique your curiosity.

71st Omakase

Japanese food immediately springs to mind when the word “omakase” is brought up. But while the omakase concept of leaving the menu up to the chef rings true here, 71st Omakase serves up Western-style cuisine – a cross-cultural, international-boundary-stirring mix of cooking styles and techniques from French to American.

This zero-waste restaurant uses ingredients harvested from its own backyard. And it’s committed to going on the culinary journey with you: the staff will explain every detail of the beautifully-presented dishes, teaching you about the flavours, inspiration and stories behind the menu.

Alto Restaurant & Bar

Alto will take you to the heart of Italian gastronomy. With its stunning panoramic view from the 20th floor of the five-star Four Seasons Hotel in Jakarta, sit down for a meal and school your tastebuds on the flavours and cultural heritage of Italy.

Executive chef Marco Violano believes that respecting food and its origin is the most important aspect of cooking – and it shows, whisking you away on a trip to an Italian home, where food is comfort, nourishment and lasting memories.

AMUZ Gourmet

This restaurant is legendary in the Jakarta fine dining scene – and for good reason. If you’re in the mood for some delicious and luxurious French cuisine, stop in at AMUZ gourmet and experience the crème de la crème of French fine dining.

Feast on French classics like foie gras and coq au vin, and let the team at AMUZ treat your tastebuds and educate you on wine pairings that will bring out the fullest flavour of every bite.

1945 Restaurant

This restaurant prides itself as the pioneer of halal-certified dining in five-star hotels in Jakarta – and this trailblazer has stood the test of time. Here you get elevated Indonesian fare that doesn’t stint on flavour, technique or presentation.

From tuna gohu to pecel sayur to kencombrang rice, 1945 serves up a menu that balances tradition and innovation and will open your eyes to the depth and diversity of Indonesian cooking.
