Botanika - Kertajaya Indah — Restaurant in Surabaya

Terjemahan Bahasa Inggris: A Charming Ambience and Delicious Eats Stepping into this beautifully designed establishment, one is immediately reminded of popular cafes in Surabaya. ( thanks to its airy atmosphere and large chandeliers). Upon entering, guests are greeted by an array of delectable snacks from various renowned markets in Surabaya. While I was unable to sample these market delicacies, their presentation was certainly eye-catching. The venue is both aesthetically pleasing and ideal for photography enthusiasts. The choice of interior and wall colors is a harmonious blend, and the light reflected off the walls is neither glaring nor harsh. As a result, minimal editing is required when taking photos here.

Came for family dinner by making a reservation beforehand. We came around 5 PM and it's still pretty empty so we can still ask to change our table to our preferred location. Now for the details of our visit

Place: located right on the side of main road so it is easy to spot and access. The inside is spacious and perfect for family or team dinner, there are indoor and outdoor space also 2nd floor even if it's not as big as the first floor.

Food: Try their lidah sapi (cow tongue) and rendang, both are so tender especially for the tongue. Their rice set menu is kinda meh even though you can try variety of sides and menu. For the drink, i recommend their es campur durian.

Service: now this is the downside, as when we just came and the place not too crowded they still can manage to assist swiftly. But after it get a bit crowded, we need to ask 2 different staff just for tissue as it took long time. And when we ordered extra menu including 2 plate of white rice, but it took really long which they can serve those rices first at least, but they wait for our other menu to be ready too before serve it

Price: On the expensive side but it's worth with their taste and space

I hope they can make improvement in their service side especially their serving time and customer assistance, as they have a good space...

I came to this restaurant during their soft opening, so I need to booked first in order to get the place which is very limited at that time. I must say that this restaurant is well designed, they use glass for the wall to maximize natural lighting from the sun and when the night comes, they placed beautiful artistic lamp so the lighting somehow not too much but warm enough to build the atmosphere.

The food price is a very expensive, with the average taste. I ordered Ketan Kuning Bumbu Sambal Goreng Rendang, Ayam Tangkap, Dragon Fruit Fried Rice, Es Mentimun, and Dawet. The fried rice taste average like ordinary Indonesian fried rice, but it has beautiful color. I love Ayam Tangkap in this reaturant, the seasoning is strong and the chicken meat taste so soft. Ketan Kuning Bumbu Sambal Goreng Rendang has strong spices in it and it taste too salty maybe.

The service is good and fast, even the place is not fully finish a maybe a bit dirty in some spot. Overall, this restaurant gave me incredible experience, tasting traditional food with exclusive price in aesthetic place.

PS: They also provide car...
