Siku Dharmawangsa — Restaurant in Jakarta

I know this place because of my boyfriend recommendation.. Came here with super hungry tummy so my mood a bit down. But when come in there is noone in the reception and many worker sitting and chilling near the reception which is a little bit unprofessional because they talk and laugh quiet a lot. Some seat in the most favorite area is reserved so i finally sit near the reception and kitchen (which is dark and noisy).. when i seat, they did not give me the menu for like 5 minutes until i asked one oh the waiter whether i can order from my table or should i go to the bar/reception (really?? I truly felt abandoned) .. i realized until i finish my late lunch and pay, the reserved seat had not been occupied. I was upset because they should predict when the customer will arrive. Unfortunately the food is not bad. I ordered organic roasted chicken (taste good). Nothing special with the pasta.

Overall, interior design great, ambience quiet and perfect for chill. still need a lot of improvement in the hospitality...

I believe one of the reasons why this place is quite popular is its beautiful decoration and the outdoor setting that is really chic and instagrammable.

We visited on Christmas Eve around 11 - 11.30 AM. I noticed that they provide an “all day breakfast” menu, but unfortunately the staff said that it’s no longer available at that hour (which is confusing because they put the words “all day” on it).

We picked Wagyu Over Rice and the quesadilla. The rice was nice, but I’ve tasted better (yet cheaper) quesadillas. We also ordered some fried mushrooms which were okay.

We had Virgin Mojito and Cute Dragon for drinks, and both were pleasant.

It was really unfortunate that there was a fly or two during our meal, and the staff did not do anything to respond to that situation even though we had shown our concern about it. Well, one of the two staff was not really friendly since the beginning anyway, so we shouldn’t be...

I visited their IG account before visiting. The outdoor pics looks spacious and open air. We decided to come in the afternoon. When we arrive the outdoor space is smaller and some are under an outdoor roof. Which is fine because it could rain.

The decor inside the restaurant is actually cute. But the sofa under the outdoor roof was too low. Very very uncomfortable, especially for plus size people like me and a couple of my friends.

Interesting menu list. We tried the nutella crepes, very good. Seafood cakwe, pempek, fried mushroom, all recommended items. Skinny fries is too thin. Made me think of sambal teri kacang and a bit too salty. I ordered the iced coconut water with dates: so-so. Gingy Kale: a bit too sweet.

The parking space in front is only for 4 cars and a few motorbikes. But there is a large parking space for Siku guests two...
