I've finally found my new go-to spot in Kemang! This place, located right next to the Grand Kemang Hotel, has an absolutely fantastic atmosphere. It’s so inviting and has a very comfortable, slightly upscale feel. They really cater to the modern crowd. I was impressed by the amount of power outlets available, and they are the universal type, which is a life-saver! With reliable Wi-Fi and good air conditioning, this is a top choice for a daytime work session or meeting. In the evening, the live music kicks in and the place transforms—it’s the perfect setting for a casual hangout or a date. They even have some plush sofa areas for lounging. The food is a major highlight. Every dish that came out was a visual masterpiece (seriously, impeccable presentation). Crucially, the flavor matches the look. You can tell they use high-quality ingredients. Given the whole experience—the taste, the plating, and the setting—the pricing is totally justifiable. Kudos to the entire team! The customer service is prompt and genuinely friendly. Pro tip: Parking is plentiful since you use the hotel's lot. This spot is a winner for both a productive afternoon and a chic evening! Highly...
Read moreGreat place for food and cocktails. They have live music events sometimes too! We decided to give it a try since it was Jazz night on the 16 June, Sunday.
Their cocktails were super good and came at an affordable price too. We kept going back to Negroni Business and Pearl Jam. They have 1-for-1 cocktails from 5pm-8pm. For the jazz night, they also had a separate offering, which was a 3 course. This was also great as it was frankly quite cheap (200k for 3 courses is a steal). We got the waiter to take back a slightly underdone dish but they were sincerely apologetic about it. 3 course lamb rack was 4/5, beef tartare was 4/5, aged and came with a quail yoke.
One discomfort was that it is one single space and there were many smokers. I guess tourists ought to get used to this cultural norm in JKT but I'd say it was not pleasant having the buds burning next to you while you eat and enjoy a show.
Shoutout to the lady waiter who spoke fluent English and bothered to explain the 1 prohibition for 1 modern...
Read moreThis spot is a total hidden gem in Kemang!
The place itself is seriously cozy. It's located right in the same complex as a hotel, which is super convenient. They have free Wi-Fi and some comfy sofas, making it a great place to chill. Big bonus: they have live music in the evenings! Perfect ambience for a night out. Let's talk food. Everything is plated beautifully, seriously Instagrammable! And luckily, it's not just pretty, the food quality is great, and the taste is delicious and totally worth the price. The pricing is fair for the whole dining experience they offer. Service is also excellent, the staff are super friendly and attentive. This lounge is really versatile. It's great for a WFC spot during the day, and it's perfect for after-office hours to relax with friends, colleagues, or a date.
Definitely highly recommended! Oh, and because it shares space with the hotel, the parking is spacious, which is a huge...
