Tesate — Restaurant in Jakarta

Upon my arrival at Tesate Restaurant in Plaza Senayan, an initial lapse in hospitality marred the experience, as I found myself unacknowledged and left without guidance to a seat until my insistence prompted attention. A more proactive and friendly staff demeanor would undoubtedly enhance the overall atmosphere, as the initial lack of engagement left a conspicuous gap in the service.

However, culinary redemption emerged with an unexpected twist. A mix-up resulted in the delivery of mushroom satay, a dish not on our order.

This a replication of TeSate at other location. The main resto was inside the alley where the front site was like a small outlet. The menus were various kind of sate, fish dishes, fried rice, seafoods, and chicken or beef soup. For drinks, you could choose hot or cold coffee and tea, fruit juices, orange crush, soft drinks, and mineral water.
