UMAQITA PIK — Restaurant in Jakarta

We were taken in by the aesthetic view of the shop and the fact that it was halal and clearly indicated a musollah at the 3rd floor assured our tired souls who was busy checking out all the shops in the area. I am not sure if I can do justice to the taste of the dishes we bought but wow, we were amazed with every dish that came out - definitely a place to visit if you miss balinese food and the night ambience was just goodvibes only. We bought the nasi goreng uma (such flavourful ricee!!), mie bebek, something that reminded us of gado2 in singapore (fried tempe, keropok, dried skin tofu, lontong and peanut sauce that was soo delicious!), cumi bakar jimbaran (yes to trying this pls!) sate ayam merah, sate kulit ayam (a bit oily for us tbh we prefered sate ayam merah!), esteler, jeruk nipis kelapa and pisang goreng wijen that comes with caramel. There was 4 of us and this meal was sooo good! definitely something to remember our trip to jakarta after 3 years! thank you to the friendly staff too who made our dinner perfect by telling us the expected tole for food to arrive and checking if our dishes was available. we also received ice cream to end of our dinner on top of all we had. happy tummy pls, a must return for us and you shld...

Going for family birthday 10ppl. I put on reservation before, hence table was set properly. It is a balinese restaurant with lots of varieties on menu for your preference. The space is quite comfy, a little bit crowded but still not as crowded that you’re still able to hear the rest of members talking cleary. The food is nice, beware of medium to small portion. But the taste overal is fresh and medium-light. The staff paid attention to your meal preference (not spicy, people portion, allergies and any recommendation for diabetic)

I like the Roejak Jeruk bali, a typical fresh fruit salad with crisp of lettuce. A well deserved Ayam Bakar Bekakak, with nasi kecombrang and side dishes. Everything was perfect for spicy yet flavorful seekers. Dish made with not only spicy but also flavorful of medium tone salt, sweet.

The rest, dessert! It was unique and nice style of es cendol and es campur. The blend was perfect with coconut milk, cendol and brownsugar (it was sweet but still good, you may note to staff to make it less sweet). But the fresh tangy feeling coming on es campur, you’ll find certain portion of milk, kopyor, corn, avocados,...

Awal nya aku penasaran ada restoran baru deket Pantjoran PIK yaitu Umaqita. Mereka menjual masakan khas Bali salah satu makanan favorit aku banget. Tapi mereka juga menyediakan menu Jawa, Sunda, dan Padang. Wah ini jadi opsi yang sangat bagus buat teman-teman yang mencari makanan halal disini di daerah Pantjoran PIK.

Tapi kalau suasana di restoran ini instagramable, nyaman banget, dan dekorasi di restoran ini lebih modern. Ditambah lagi pelayanan yang sangat memuaskan baik dari keramahan dan kecepatan dalam menyajikan hidangan.

Opsi untuk memesan makanan disini ada dua. Pertama, kalian bisa langsung pesan dengan memilih lauk. Kedua, kalian bisa langsung pesan lewat waitree/waitress. Disini aku semakin penasaran mencoba beberapa menu di Umaqita:

Nasi Campur Uma (Rp 59.000) Terdiri dari nasi kecombrang, ayam pelalah (ayam suwir bumbu kuning), sate lilit ayam, lawar, telur, dan sambal matah. Nasi kecombrang disini berasa kecombrang, nasi pulen, dan rasa pedas disini bentrok sama sambal matah. Sambal matah disini enak, dilihat masih terang dan seger. Ayam pelalah disini enak, tidak kering, dan bumbu kuning lumayan berasa. Sate lilit ayam disini enak dan lembut. Tapi sayang nya aku ga mencoba lawar pada umum nya. Jadi aku dapat sayur berupa jagung. Alangkah baik nya kalau hidangan nasi campur ini tetap ada lawar. Memang lawar itu tidak bisa bertahan lama, tapi harus ada opsi lain agar hidangan ini asli dari Bali. Bisa menggunakan beans di mix sama apa gitu keliatan makanan khas Bali tapi Halal.

Nasi Goreng Bebek Madura (Rp 69.000) Nasi goreng disini enak, manis nya pas, dan ada nya acar membuat hidangan ini balance. Bebek madura disini enak, crispy, dan tidak alot.

Udang Bakar Jimbaran (Rp 59.000) Udang bakar disini enak dan tidak kering. Bumbu Jimbaran disini yang memiliki cita rasa pedas dan manis ini cukup berasa. Hidangan ini dipadukan dengan sambal matah sangat cocok.

Iga Bakar Taliwang (Rp 79.000) Iga disini dari tekstur daging empuk banget, sambal nya disini enak, pedes, dan manis nya pas. Enak banget dan wajib dicoba.

Ayam Kampung Bakar Jimbaran (Rp 75.000) Ayam kampung disini memiliki tekstur yang lembut dan tidak kering. Bumbu bakar jimbaran disini lumayan meresap ke ayam. Boleh banget untuk dicoba.

Sate Lilit Ikan (Rp 39.000) Sate lilit ikan memiliki bobot 5 pcs. Buat rasa nya enak, lembut, dan ikan nya berasa.

Butterfly Pea Tea (Rp 29.000) Jadi minuman ini terbuat dari bunga telang. Disini manis dari syrup sama manis dari lychee pas. Hanya saja rasa dari teh ini kayak nya kurang keluar.
