Ossu Izakaya — Restaurant in Jakarta

Don’t be fooled by the high star rating. This place is a trap

The service is very slow. The restaurant wasn’t crowded, yet it took almost 30 minutes to serve the food.

Gyu Karubi I tried their karubi, and it was extremely tough and completely inedible. Paying 35k for a small piece of karubi is absurd. There was no tenderness in the meat at all.

Spicy Momo The spicy momo tasted awful. The chicken clearly wasn’t fresh and seemed like it had been frozen for a long time. For the price they charge for such a small portion, it’s ridiculous. The spicy sauce tasted cheap, similar to low-quality street food.

Gyoza Cream Some of the gyoza skins were undercooked, making them difficult to chew. Properly cooked gyoza should have smooth, tender skin. I couldn’t taste any truffle flavor. Charging 11k per gyoza for such poor quality is outrageous.

Spicy Miso Ramen I don’t even know where to begin. There was no miso flavor at all—it tasted like plain...

Went here to have dinner with husb, we ordered Tori Karaage , Miso Soup , Salmon Aburi, and their Kushiyaki it's a must!

The service was top notch 😍, serving time good, staffs also engage and polite, with extra smiles every time they greet. The place was comfortable, and most importantly, the food was amazing.

Oh, my recommendation will be Tori Karaage , Salmon aburi, also we couldn’t resist trying their kushiyaki it's Tsukune (with egg yolk & tare sauce) OMG and Gyu Enoki roll it's melts on our mouth T.T they both exceeded our expectations, but unfortunately the Miso soup too salty for us :"))

All in all a pleasant experience and place, we definitely would come again and recommend this place if you are...

The taste is actually just okay.. I thought this would be a proper Japanese restaurant but turns out it’s not.. the taste is already changed according to Indonesian taste~

The tsukune, momo negi satays are quite good though..

The salmon matah udon just seems like a fusion thingy and tastes like pasta lol..

The tuna tataki wasn’t quite fresh but the sauce was okay..

Important! The picture on menu and real order kinda different so lower your expectations guys haha

And the ocha is refill but quite expensive compared to other...
