Bijin Nabe by Tsukada Nojo ID Plaza Senayan — Restaurant in Jakarta

Tried this restaurant at the recommendation of my mother, who had tried it a few months ago. My family have always loved japanese food and we’ve tried various japanese restaurants so I had high hopes for this one.

First impression walking through the establishment’s entrance, the interior is spacious and elegantly decorated with a very nice ambience.

We had the Shabu Shabu size M with an additional vegetable set because my father really likes a lot of vegetables in his shabu-shabu. The portion was bigger than I expected and they’re very generous with the amount of meat within the set plus some free Tsukune (chicken meatballs). For the soup, we had the Original Collagen and Miso Collagen, it’s important to note that I personally am not too fond of chicken but objectively both soups were very nice and thick without being overwhelming. They also prepared a lot of condiments, so for those of you who likes to customize their dipping sauces you can go ham with it.

For dessert I tried the Matcha Tiramisu, which was nice but altogether mediocre. The mascarpone cream’s texture weren’t as smooth as I’d hoped and the overall taste were sweeter than I’d expected. The matcha powder at the top adds a nice bitterness to it but has a tendency to stick to the roof of your mouth. The sourness of the strawberry slices within cuts through the sweetness well but there were very few of them so most of the mouthfulls were overwhelmingly sweet with an occasional balanced bite when you’re lucky enough to get the strawberries.

The waiters and waitresses were very friendly and helpful! And although it was rather expensive, I admit it was worth the price.

Overall, it’s a good experience and an interesting...

Well this restaurant is one of the best hotpot in Jakarta for sure. Every other reviewer said the Collagen soup is Godsend... Well for me personally they too fishy in smell and taste. For me the best soup is their Collagen - Sukiyaki soup. Yes they still have that distinct fishy taste or smell but way more tolarable as the sukiyaki soup is naturlly sweet. I enjoy it waaayyy more than just collagen.

Other food is Ah-Ma-Zing too... Tried their chicken nanban don and oyako don. Both are very good... But their chicken with egg in okonomiyaki style is DA BOMB!! Literally melting in your mouth! This is A MUST ORDER menu here..

We also order their standard beef menu Large Portion... Price is 580K++ and can serve 4 person easily. The beef quality is just okay though maybe next time I will try their Kagoshima Wagyu set that will also set you back 1.580++ for the same Large portion..

Service is also super attentive but might be a bit too slow when the restaurant is full. Like refilling the soup takes way longer than it should the second time and they charge you for it! The free refill is only 1 time.

Why 4 stars then? Price is quite expensive to be honest. Have tried beef at other high end hotpot place that serve same quality beef for lower price.

All in all still highly recommended hot pot...

The hotpot here was on another level! The collagen soup was super rich, creamy, and comforting—perfect for chilly nights or when you’re in need of something nourishing. The veggie platter was fresh, meatballs juicy and well-seasoned, and the broth soaked everything up perfectly.

And you must try the Chicken Nanban—crispy, tender, and smothered in a tangy tartar sauce that’s seriously addictive. Don’t skip the sushi either! Their Salmon Nigiri was buttery and fresh, the kind that melts in your mouth and makes you wish you ordered more.

The restaurant itself gives off a calm, elegant vibe with beautiful wooden dividers and a cozy private-feel seating. It’s the kind of place where time feels slower, in the best way.
