OOTOYA Lotte Shopping Avenue — Restaurant in Jakarta

Updated: Still the best place to get authentic Japanese food. Love the Aji set so much, they always succeed on making the fish tender but also crispy on the edges. They also have the best Ocha. The ocha somehow has a strong roasted smell that we love so much. Love the chicken menus as well, the meat was always tender. The new menu; chicken namban is super yummy and sold out real fast.

We have tried almost all of the menu and all of them were yummy. We also have tried many of their branches, and the food quality has always been consistent. Service was amazing, people were helpful and friendly, price was affordable and worth the value. Place was comfy, but this branch has a slightly different style and layout from the others. Here, they have two small rooms with divider for people who wants a little sense of privacy.

And it is interesting to notice that the crowds here during lunch time on workdays are mostly Japanese moms with their 1-2 kids. But don't worry, their kids somehow raised differently lol, they don't scream or run around, and very polite. So, if you plan to have a business meeting here, you'll be fine.

Will...

The vegetable is fresh! I often buy it as take away but even dining there is just good. Interior is of woods and very simple and minimalist! But offer that Authentic feels. I love the mashed up potato. Okosama lunch is great and to be truthful even though the price is bit expensive, it worths all your money. But be careful adding all sauces they gave you, cause some can be quite salty! But the meat and meal are all big size, so the money you put out is in line with the portion! ^ ^ Their misoshiru (miso soup) is great! Salty but somehow I love it, even though I usually hate them! The katsu is crispy and big!! And well if you take it as take away, I can assure the pacakging for it is quite great! Also the Never forget to put the spoon, chopsticks and all so I'm very pleased!! Did I mention again the vegetable is good? Especially that cabbage that got purple streak on it, I forgot ehat the name is But It is very VERY Fresh. The tomatoes too!! Overall Please just Taste it...

Restaurant Kuningan: there is one of the finest Japanese restaurant that is still commercial, which means that the price point is a bit expensive but it’s not as expensive as fine dining Japanese restaurants at hotels, or luxury boutique malls. The menu are extensive and they offer a lot of variations of food, especially around works beef and also rice and sometimes also Ramen, but I would not recommend Ramen. Is very comfortable and the surface was good however the price point is a bit expensive so if you want other options for food, I think you can go...
