Restaurants in Jakarta
The Jakarta restaurants below have been grouped into three pricing categories:
Expensive (over 200,000 IDR)
Moderate (80,000 IDR to 200,000 IDR)
Cheap (up to 80,000 IDR)
These Jakarta restaurant prices are for a three-course meal for one and include all taxes but not drinks.
Java Bleu
One of Jakarta’s finest restaurants focuses on the delectable French cuisine. You could almost be in a Parisian bistro. Make sure you book ahead. Closed Mondays.
Café Batavia
Something of a Jakarta institution, Café Batavia seldom disappoints. Bustling by day and by night, this is the kind of place equally adept at mixing up a few cocktails or a full evening meal, making it ideal for businesspeople.
Oasis
The welcome with live gamelan music sets the tone for a slick dining experience. Smooth service, interesting cuisine and a decent wine list complete the mix in an old Dutch villa that dates back to 1928.
Lara Djonggrang
This excellent Menteng eatery offers terrific food that spans the country's regional cuisines. Gorgeous creations from around the archipelago and a fabulous decor combining Indonesian and North African sensory verve makes this one of the best dining spots in Jakarta.
Sabang Food Court
For those without the stomach or nerve to explore the street stalls, this is the perfect alternative. The food court has succulent and spicy food from all over the various regions of Indonesia, with something for everyone in a fun, informal environment.
VOC Galangan
It may be set in a historic 17th-century building, but this is one of the funkiest restaurants in Jakarta’s Kota district. Fusion food is on the menu here with influences from Indonesia, the Netherlands and elsewhere. Occasional live music is an added bonus.
