OKU Jakarta

Menu: 1. Eel roll, my go to menu when visiting an uncharted Japanese restaurant, surprisingly become the bar of the complexity of taste. So so good! 9.5/10 2. My partner ordered some wagyu A5 curry. It's subtle but perfectly balanced. 8.5/10 3. I was never really a fan of tea, but the sakura tea was fragant and calming 4. A complimentary free dish consisted of a chocolate mouse and fudgy brownie chocolate covered in frozen chocolate, very sweet but light, with some hints of sour from raspberry and lemon zest? 9.5/10. Service: Mas Aji Prayogi was very helpful and initiative, without being overly too obvious, the kind of waiter you'd want to find, oblivious but alert.

My favorite japanese food in town. Must try: oku kaarage, wagyu sando, karasumi pasta. It’s expensive but you get what your money’s worth in this place. Top quality service from all the staffs. Been here many times and they never disappoint.

Our favorite dishes are aburi salmon roll, chicken karaage and truffle gyudon. Our server, Ariani, provided us very good service and gave us good recommendation for the food.

The best Japanese dining in Jakarta! Aji Prayogi and the manager Mr. Hiro served us well, which made us feel at home! Would definitely come back for sure!

I dined at Oku for a family occasion and was thoroughly impressed. The food was delicious, and the ambiance calm and inviting. Our attendants Aji, Cindy, and Rega were exceptionally warm and attentive. To my surprise, they even celebrated my family’s birthday unprompted, adding a truly memorable touch to our experience. Highly recommended!

Best. Resto. In. Jakarta. Worth going for special occasions! The spicy sushi was amazing. BUT PLEASE GET THE DESSERTS! Amazing pastries. Thank you to the manager, Hiro san, and his amazing staff, Aji!

Always a good experience. Food was incredible. Charcoal Karaage is not your ordinary Karaage, the sesame bomb inside complement the chicken perfectly. Sashimi is fresh, no fishy smell at all. Love their REAL wasabi, tasted pungent yet slightly sweet. Gyudon is good but composition is not to my liking, too much rice as compared to the beef. But tasted good. For dessert, They served us WATER MOCHI, not on the menu. Very interesting, it tastes like water but has jelly-like consistency. Great for experience but taste-wise, well.. it tastes like water. Hahahah. Atmosphere and Service was great.

I am a japanese food lover and i don’t mind to over pay for it. But Oku's set menu felt like a robbery . We spent IDR 4 million (≈ €240) and received only a few undersized plates with decidedly mediocre flavors. The supposed “main course” — a steak that cost extra even though it was part of the set — was advertised as truffle-infused, yet offered neither the aroma nor the taste of truffle, the desert was tastless an ice cream with kasava something cannot be part of a set menue . The staff were pleasant, but that didn’t erase the feeling of being overcharged. Bottom line: if you value fresh ingredients and memorable flavours, skip Okko and dine elsewhere.
