Toby's Estate — Restaurant in Jakarta

This is one of my favorite place to hangout on weekends, their coffee is great & I love the cozy upbeat ambience here though the place is usually packed during weekends. All the staffs is very friendly & provides informative explanation about the menu.

Besides coffee as their specialty, they also serve full course of food, from salad & soup, light bites, pasta, main course both western & asian fusion, and dessert. You’ll definitely find something that will pamper your palate here 😋

Some of my recommendations here: Truffle Parmesan Fries: an addictive light bites which will keep you munching! Love the salty parmesan topping & fragrant truffle oil 👍🏻 Wagyu Beef Donburi: this Japanese fusion is a great choice for lunch, the slow cooked wagyu taste so good as it melts in your mouth. Very fulfilling portion! Sirloin Steak Fried Rice: with the juicy sirloin they’re taking the fried rice into the next level 😁 the rice portion is very big, I think it’s suitable for sharing. Avocado Coffee: a marvelous blend of avocado with dark chocolate mousse, vanilla ice cream & espresso! Definitely a must-try! This would really make a good dessert to end your meal, especially as the taste is more on the sweet sides (I opted for no syrup yet it still came out sweet overall) Chai Latte: a refreshing blend of tea, spices & milk in one cup, yummm ~

Overall the food is delectable & well-presented although it’s quite pricey compared to similar menu in...

I really wanted to give this place a better rating, but many things made our visit unpleasant.

Although it states pet friendly, me and my 7 months pregnant wife had to be seated outside because dogs aren’t allowed inside (which I understood at first) however about 20 mins after, a table with much bigger dogs than my tiny Chihuahua were seated inside with no issue (photos attached)?!! And my pregnant wife had to sit outside dealing with the heavy smoking, heat, cars carbon dioxide, and the unbearable noises of the security whistles, honks and etc…

Food was fine, Chicken Parm portion was very small I had to eat elsewhere after, I also ordered truffle fries but the waiter never brought it and even forgot to write it down apparently, my wife’s prawn and clam spaghetti wasn’t good at all.

I was about to be charged for double the drinks I ordered haven’t I double checked the bill.

The heat was unbearable outside, so I asked the waiter to turn on the fan but he apologized and as usual (maaf pak rusak) this place makes hundreds of millions a day, fixing or buying a new fan shouldn’t break the bank.

In the end, I asked for the bill and waited TEN MINUTES and no one brought it, until I walked to the cashier and paid there.

Maybe this would have been a 3 stars review if it wasn’t for the horrible heat and atmosphere.

Overpriced for the quality of food and portions you get.

Staff were friendly but need to be...

Been here for 5 times already. Server was attentive and knows the menu quite well. We had order many things, truffle fries, char-grilled angus steak, nasi goreng kampung, prawn aglio olio, eggs Benedict, chicken katsu bowl, caesar salad, truffle fries, and even the house special 350gr rib eye for sharing

All is good. The char-grilled angus steak might as well be the best 155K++ steak in town.. Its tender, sauce is good, mushroom and onion ring are cooked well.

Most menus are good. The nasi goreng kampung is just so so unfortunately.

Their latte is quite good also. Make sure you order large with 2 espresso shot to make it bold and strong.

Place is nice also. So why the 4 stars? 1 word that will haunts any restaurant; even the 2 Michelin stars might have this problem. CONSISTENCY. From the 5 times I go here, I always order their Char-grilled angus steak. And from those 5 times. 3 times its heavenly and the other 2 the taste is meh.. 1 time the sauce is too much its like the steak is swimming inside it. The other time the steak just don't have taste. Still medium rare the way I like it but its bland like they forgot to season it with salt and pepper. I have to physically add salt to it to make it have taste.

So yeah. Still a great resto/cafe with really great but cheap steak, when they cook...
