This Jakarta Japanese buffet boasts a stunning Kyoto-style garden, but the all-you-can-eat experience is a "Hunger Games" battle. For 150k, you get a beautiful photo op but face frustratingly slow service and a tiny window to place orders, making it nearly impossible to get your money's worth. With inconsistent food quality and hidden costs for drinks, this review weighs if the incredible ambiance is enough to justify the chaotic dining rules at this influencer-famous spot.
Girls, take my advice. If you want to know just how much of a trap these influencer-famous spots can be, one visit here and you'll understand everything.
Waiting 20 minutes after the first round of orders, and another half an hour for the second round is a common occurrence. By the time all your food arrives, a waiter comes over to remind you that you only have 10 minutes left to eat... This kind of tactic really makes your blood pressure skyrocket. Want to get your money's worth? Basically impossible. It's purely a delay tactic to stop you from eating more. Mantap!
Although I've complained a lot, if your main goal is to find a place with a great atmosphere for photos and to have a little something to eat, then it's still worth considering. But you must remember the following points:
