Sana Sini Restaurant

Reviewed By Jeryio

I've had more than five meals at Sana Sini over the four days I stayed at Pullman Thamrin (the hotel service doesn't rate as well). The buffet spread is excellent, ranging from fresh seafood and sashimi to their renowned selection of sambals and Indonesian cuisine. I was most impressed with Chef Wulan, who whipped up her version of gado gado (pictured) that had a sauce that was lighter and much more palatable than the heavy peanut sauce of the traditional dish. The flavours were punchier and a lot less "jelak". I'm not a big fan of gado gado, but her recipe (which was bespoke for me) is one I'd return to. My buffet dinner ended with a plate of fresh fruit assembled by Chef Wulan, cleansing my palate and leaving me completely satisfied. Truly outstanding! Daer Jeryio,We are particularly proud to learn that vast buffet choices and the genuine caring service offered at our multi award-winning Sana Sini Restaurant keeps you coming back during you stay with us at Pullman Jakarta Indonesia.Our Indonesian live cooking station, including its sambal selections is one of the most loved culinary experiences by our guests. Thank you for your comment describing our bespoke “Gado”-Gado” which enable you to enjoy it with specific recipe and version created by Chef Wulan. It makes her proud to hear that it has amazed you and that you considered to share your thoughtful with TripAdvisor community.I hope that we will have the pleasure of welcoming you again on your next visit.With Warm Regards,Dan BenzaquenGeneral Manager

Visited on 10/11/2018 as a family of three peoples.Ordered Mie Char Siu Bebek, Ayam susu pedas, Bihun Goreng, Orange Juice and Thai Tea.Every dish was good, but the highlight goes to Ayam susu pedas, the chicken was perfectly crispy and served with a kind of Indian-curry sauce. Another highlight was the five stars service from the crew. However the downside was the location, this restaurant is small, bit cramped and located inside of a small and not-well-maintained mall. Moreover, I have to say that the beverages are overprices. Overall good but it will be not in my favorite list considering the value of money.Dear AdityosulindroThank you for sharing your experience and we apologize for the inconveniences. Your constructive comments are highly appreciated and rest assured that we are taking reasonable actions to ensure our quality is not being compromised.We look forward to having another opportunity to welcome you again to experience Teras Dharmawangsa Should you require further assistance, please do let us know.Best Regards

The appetizers and main course are delicious and mouthwatering. We ate until we're full..

Reviewed By Matt_I_Bklyn

Beautiful Signatures Restaurant is currently receiving a facelift, so the breakfast buffet has been temporarily relocated to the nearby Nirwana Lounge through December. Admittedly, the location was a disappointment to we who are accustomed to the open, beautiful, friendly ambience of the true restaurant. The food is still fine, and the service remains good and friendly, although it's obvious even the staff is not thrilled to navigate the somewhat challenging geography of their temporary home. However, we still enjoyed the fine breakfast which is worth the cost of about $20 US Dollars, so it's very recommended even right now in the Nirwana Lounge. I'm looking forward to returning to the upgraded Signatures after it reopens in January 2020. 美しいシグネチャレストランは現在、フェイスリフトを受けているので、ビュッフェ式朝食は12月まで一時的に近くのニルワナラウンジに移転しました。確かに、場所は本当のレストランのオープンで美しく、フレンドリーな雰囲気に慣れている私たちに失望しました。食べ物はまだ良いですし、サービスは良いとフレンドリーなままですが、スタッフでさえ、彼らの一時的な家のやや挑戦的な地理をナビゲートすることに興奮していないことは明らかです。しかし、私たちはまだ約20米ドルのコストの価値がある素晴らしい朝食を楽しんだので、今でもニルワナラウンジでそれは非常にお勧めします. 2020 年 1 月に再オープンした後、アップグレードされた署名に戻ることを楽しみにしています。Dear Matt_I_Bklyn,Thank you for keep dining at our Signatures Restaurant and spending your time to give a positive review via Trip Advisor.It is truly delighting to learn that every dish which we served were to your liking. It is also delighting to know that you were satisfied with the service and ambience of our restaurant.Please accept our sincerest apologies about the inconvenience regarding the renovation project during your recent visit. We will do our utmost to keep providing our loyal guests with the best dining experience during the renovation project.We do hope that once our Signatures is reopened, you will be one of our first guests to savour the new Signatures.Everyone in the team are very pleased to receive your kind words. This positive feedback surely makes them eager to maintain the standard of service high at all time.

Accessible location but somehow managing to be removed from the noise of the big city. Very welcoming, friendly and attentive staff. Pleasant and comfortable interior. Wide choice of dishes which are prepared with passion and largesse. You can choose between Western, original thus refreshingly tasty Indian, Korean and Japanese cuisines. I will fail to recommend individual dishes as the Lady of the House definitely knows much better. So it will be best you follow her suggestions - but do try all of their desserts!The bill came back surprisingly light. Bravo!We will definitely return - in greater numbers.Dear PatronWe like to thank you and express our gratitude for the encouraging review you kindly posted. We are overwhelmed with your views, yet would like to have your continuing feedback to keep ourselves upto the mark.This will certainly help us have more discerning diners visit us.Nothing like a note of appreciation in response to owner cum chef personalised and boutique resto we have done.

Went there today for a birthday dinner with my wife.Great service with a lot of thoughtful arrangements from the crew and captain (thanks to Debrian and Dani). Both my wife and I agreed that the food served was fantastic (you must try the oxtail soup! and the creme brulee... maybe one of the best we've tried in Jakarta).This restaurant is definitely a hidden gem. The selection itself is rather small, but it is compensated with the sophisticated service and food quality. Definitely reccomended.Dear antong404,Thank you for taking the time to review us on Tripadvisor.We are delighted to be part of your celebration and to hear that you had an enjoyable dining experience with us.Thank you for highlighting the exceptional service provided by Debrian, Dani and other Ladies & Gentlemen.
