Perched on the 12th floor of MD Place in the heart of Jakarta, Wabi-Sabi is a modern Japanese dining destination that exudes refinement. Guided by the visionary Chef Andri Dionysius, the chef patron of MDA, Wabi-Sabi combines timeless Japanese culinary traditions with contemporary flair.
The serene interiors feature an upside-down zen garden ceiling and a bamboo-stamped concrete wall, both of which reflect the Japanese philosophy of wabi-sabi – finding beauty in simplicity. This philosophy is further complemented by a curated beverage selection that includes artisanal sake, Japanese beers, fine wines and an extensive collection of Japanese whisky.
In true commitment to quality, the sushi is elevated through the use of Akazu, an aged sake lees red vinegar rich in umami, and rice that is polished daily in-house for peak fragrance and texture. Signature dishes include the colourful seven-piece Temari Zushi, indulgent duck duck foie, delicate halibut mizosuke, delectable Kakubin Karubi flambé and the SO Alaska dessert.
For those seeking a more elevated experience, Wabi-Sabi offers two omakase menus, the signature omakase and the grand omakase, each featuring 12 curated courses. With panoramic views of the Setiabudi skyline, Wabi-Sabi provides an elegant sensory journey crafted for Jakarta’s most discerning palates.
