Weekend Dinner:
So last night, Saturday, September 23, 2023, I was back having dinner at Asia Restaurant, The Ritz-Carlton Jakarta, Mega Kuningan. My experience this time was a total flip from my last visit in May 2023.
Back in May 2023, I also had a Saturday night dinner here. But, I was kinda disappointed back then because the variety of food wasn’t as much as I’d imagined, and it wasn’t as ‘wow’ as other five-star hotel buffet restaurants I've experienced.
Coming back to Asia Restaurant last night, I honestly didn’t expect much, but it turns out, I was blown away. They’ve improved a looooot 😱
Pros:
+ There’s so much more variety in sushi compared to my last visit in May. Plus, they keep refilling the Sashimi quickly
+ The seafood menu has really upped its game! Way more lobsters than in May, and they’re bigger and fresher. Oh, and the clams have way more variety too. Plus, they’ve added crab options this time, something they didn’t have last May
+ And oh, my favorite spot, the desserts! This time, there’s so much more to choose from. Cakes, panna cotta, pudding, ice cream, you name it, everything’s got more variety and is so tasty
+ The dining area in Asia Restaurant is the best cause the tables aren’t too close to each other, so it’s still more private and comfortable to chat
+ The staff are really quick to clear dirty plates; as soon as they see an empty plate, they take it right away
+ The roasted beef this time around is also way better, juicier, last May it was a bit on the dry side
+ The fish menu is also super tasty and a must-try, especially with the "Sambal Kecap” provided there
+ The Indian food here is so tasty, you really should try it
+ Here, in Asia Restaurant, you already got free flow drink like water, juice, coffee, tea, and infused water
Cons:
- They need to bring back their cheese menu. Last May, they still had cheese options, but somehow, tonight, I didn't see any.
- If you book there, my advice is to ask for seating that is not too close to the live band, since it can be loud. I was lucky to always get good seating.
I happened to use the Chope Pay 1 Dine 2 promo, so it was just Rp 796.180 for two people. Such a deal, right! Seriously, I would recommend anyone to try it, even if there's no promo. It's still worth it!
While I was paying at the cashier, I had a little chit-chat and mentioned that Asia Restaurant now has so much more variety compared to my last visit in May. The male staff member said, while smiling brightly, “Yes, back then many customers gave feedback, so we adjusted according to customer tastes and needs. So yeah, now we have a lot more variety.”
It’s good, right? It shows that they really listen to feedback, and you can tell it has made a big difference compared to before.
Last night, all the tables were also full; it seems like they now have way more customers than before.
Overall, Asia Restaurant, you’ve really stepped up your game and are just getting better and better. Keep it up!

I've been here with my family. The food was not bad. But, there was a band in the restaurant and their volume was terribly loud. Also the sound was very cheap. It was an unpleasant experience for me. Cause, the band dind't know how to manage their volume and the restaurant didn't control the volume. Due to the poor sound and bad quality speakers(only loud), I felt like I was in a very poor and cheap restaurant.
Visited for Saturday dinner buffet. Spread was decent, but no fresh grill section was disappointing. Service didn't match the standard of other 5-star establishments I've been to. Seafood mainly boiled in the cold section, and the Fish Grill was just okay. Hainan Chicken/Duck rice was available without soup. Indian and Indonesian dishes were below par. The dessert selection stood out with a wide variety including cakes, pastries, and exceptional gelatos (highly recommend the Signature gelato). Overall, the experience was quite mediocre.
Really love the porchetta and soto lamongan. Fresh seafood, juicy prawns and oysters are amazingly matched with their various sauces. Great sushi especially with sliced beef on top. Crispy papadam with great lamb goulash from the corner of India. The juices are varied and great!!
Dessert corner is the best as they have a wide selection of homemade pudding, cakes, and gelato with unique flavors. Try the choco mint gelato, you will definitely love it.
All the staff were very friendly and helpful, offering us lots of condiments! Will definitely be back!

This place offers quite nice ambience especially if you want to have dinner in group. However, some of the food (it was a buffet) was rather below standard for such a fancy establishment.
The wagyu was way too dry, so it was rather chewy. I have tasted much better wagyu in other restaurants. Some of the desserts were way too sweet. The coffee panacotta was not that sweet, we loved it.

Excellent food (lobster, shrimp, waygu, and so much more), fruit, dessert, drink, staff and service. Very high quality and very nice people. Everything was more than excellent. Number one place to be recommended in Jakarta! Thank you very much, special thank to Syaifullah and Riska Danira!
I was thoroughly impressed by the quality of the food. The steak was cooked exceptionally well and had a great taste. In addition to the steak, there was a wide selection of Japanese dishes to choose from, and everything I tried was top-notch.
The dessert selection was also impressive, with a range of fine options to choose from. The atmosphere of the restaurant was high class and added to the overall dining experience.

Came here for breakfast. The place is huge so you don't have to worry about not getting a seat. I do love the ambience of the resto. The staffs are nice and helpful.
They offer variation of food from American, Chinese, Indonesian, Korean, etc. Plenty of options available. In terms of taste, for a hotel food is superb (for me as Indonesian).
