Markette - Grand Indonesia — Restaurant in Jakarta

Starting to fall apart after a few lovely dinners.

Today restaurant was half full; hostess and waiters took long to finally seat us. Many tables were dirty for a long time and nobody was cleaning them.

Nobody came to take our orders had to struggle to get their attention.

Nobody brought us cutlery; napkins or their tomato and chilli sauce. We had to get it our self after waiting and trying to find staff.

Fries that came with my sandwich were cold and tasted stale.

Spaghetti meatballs well - it had one (!) meatball and the rest just minced meat. Taste was good though.

Garlic fried wings lacked flavor overall and had barely any taste.

Was difficult to find a waiter again to call for the check; nobody asked how our food was or if we wanted to order any desserts.

It felt they were understaffed though I saw multiple staff members which were appropriate for the number of tables taken; and I had eaten before at the restaurant when it was full and they didn’t have more staff and handled well.

Disappointing to see service and...

I came here on Sunday around 1 p.m. and there was no waiting list and the resto was not in the full house. The service was excellent, special thanks to Kak Icha!

I ordered 2 mains and 1 dessert: Markette's Leftover Lasagna (4.8/5) Love the tomato sauce, not too sour just felt fresh. The portion is not too much, in the exact amount for 1 pax.

Spaghetti Carbonara (5/5) Superb recommended! The carbonara was not too creamy, no 'eneg' after taste. The combination of the carbo and the protein were well balanced.

Banana Bruleed Mochi Waffle (4/5) Not really special in my opinion, just simple waffle with banana, vanilla ice cream and lil bit of almond. But well, the caramelized banana was good.

Overall, I gave 5 stars...

We went there on a Sunday evening around 5:30 pm to have an early dinner, there wasn’t any wait so we got our seats fast. We ordered Birria sandwich, left over lasagna, and nasi goreng. The birria sandwich ( beef) was good with the dipping sauce. The lasagna was also delicious, with the bechamel sauce. The nasi goreng was okay only, I ordered this for my kid. The satay from the nasi goreng was so so, not my favorite dish. Price was kinda pricey, we paid around 450++ k almost 500 k for 3 meal dish. I would come back to try other dishes if there were promos or happy hour discounts. I really think it’s quite expensive overall but food was acceptably good. Atmosphere, ambiance and decor were good. Service was overall...
