Basque Bar de Tapas — Restaurant in Jakarta

Love this place! came here on Monday night (where the next day is May Day) and I'm glad the DJ played top hits music. Alright here's my reviews in ratings: Price: 3.5/5; Yes, it's mostly expensive if you compare to other Indonesian Local Bar, but it's a standard price compare to other high-end bar/club in Jakarta. You can check the menu price at Zomato App People: 4/5; The staff is nice and helpful. Mostly foreigners who come here, so I like the atmosphere cos it's so diverse. I have no problem at all with the security, maybe because it wasn't too crowded so they didn't really check my purse. Place: 5/5; Placed in the center of Kuningan, easy access and classy interior. ++ What to Expect: Since they can be pretty tight with the dress code (it applies to most bars/clubs in Jakarta) Sandals are prohibited. Shoes/heels are highly recommended. For attire, you can basically wear a smart casual attire, I heard they don't allow t-shirt & short for men (and I don't see anyone wear those). Please note that people who come here are pretty dress-up, so wear your best! Also, I can see there are some hookers, so don't fall into the trap. Unless you're looking for one, then that's totally up to you haha.

Overall, my experience here was great and definitely will come...

This venue offers two distinct experiences depending on the time of evening. Early on, it serves as a classy restaurant with live music, perfect for a romantic dinner. Later at night, it transforms into a lively club with a DJ, dancing, and socializing. Both settings are well worth a visit. The menu is intriguing, and the food is tasty, making it a great spot for a date.

As the evening progresses, the atmosphere becomes more vibrant, with increased tempo and a social crowd that enjoys mingling and dancing. The clientele is a mix of locals and foreigners, predominantly in their late 20s and older.

If you're in Jakarta or an expat, Basque is a must-visit at least once. Finding the place at night can be a bit tricky since you need to enter the building and take the elevators to the 8th floor, where the entrance is located, and there isn't much signage.

Parking is convenient with ample space in the building’s parkade. Bluebird taxis are readily available outside, making it easy to get home after a fun night. Additionally, there are other restaurants nearby for bar hopping.

Once a week, there's an opportunity to take Latin dance lessons. The only downside is the pricey menu, which could be more affordable. Despite this, I highly recommend...

Without reducing respect, to the owner of basq, please pay attention, I have been here often since 2022 and I open bottles. go to the restaurant to eat and everything is fine. suddenly yesterday on January 24 at 00.40 I was about to enter and pay as usual at the entrance suddenly one of the employees said that I had been blacklisted and could not enter here again. I was very shocked, and I asked what mistake I made that someone treated me like that? I have never disturbed other visitors. I always pay there with my own money, I also never make trouble let alone disturb visitors there, in fact the visitors there are men who like to disturb me. Please double check your management. I am very offended from the customer's side. I don't mind not being allowed to go there. I am very okay. but what I really regret is the service of your employees who are on the front line, they are not friendly. Previously, I often entered reservations under my friend's name and was told that the name did not exist. It should be underlined that I was here in good spirits, paid and dressed politely like a bar in general. Hopefully you don't make your bar deserted by the treatment of your employees at the front who serve improperly.Thnks for...
