Winner of Exquisite Awards 2025 – Best Unique Japanese Restaurant: Salmon Noodle 3.0 Halal Label
In a quest to discover the city’s most unique Japanese restaurants, Salmon Noodle 3.0 Halal Label stands out by redefining how ramen is perceived and enjoyed. Led by Chef Shota Saka, who honed his culinary skills over 14 years in French cuisine, the restaurant presents a fresh take on traditional bowl. The result is a dining experience that honours tradition while introducing a modern twist.
With four locations in Plaza Senayan, Neo Soho, Lippo Mall Kemang and Agora Mall, presentation is just as important as flavour. Bowls are served in ceramic imported from Japan, and each portion is meticulously plated. One of the signature favourites, truffle cheese salmon noodles, features crispy salmon fritters, black caviar and a creamy soy-based broth that is lighter than the usual chicken or traditional ramen soup base.
The menu extends beyond salmon, with lobster and crab variations enhanced with truffle oil and parmesan cheese, showcasing the restaurant’s French influence. Additionally, curry shrimp noodles offer a spiced profile that resonates with Indonesian palates. Another highlight is the wagyu roast beef, featuring slices simmered for hours until tender, paired with parmesan, balsamic reduction and a sharp hint of chilli mayonnaise. Each component is thoughtfully arranged to create a balance of flavours that does not overwhelm the palate.
By blending Japanese tradition with French finesse, Salmon Noodle 3.0 Halal Label creates something rare in Jakarta’s dining scene. It represents how a restaurant can honour its roots while offering a perspective that feels entirely new, securing its place as one of the city’s best and most unique Japanese restaurants.
