Hidden within Chillax Sudirman, TOMA Brasserie is one of those Jakarta restaurants that manages to combine good food, sophisticated surroundings and a relaxed social atmosphere. With its eclectic Asian-fusion menu and polished brasserie concept, it is an easy choice when you want something beyond the usual Sudirman dining spots. Reviews consistently highlight its cozy ambience, attentive service and creative food and cocktails.
The venue
The moment you step inside, TOMA feels warm, elegant and slightly nostalgic. The interior has a sophisticated, almost 1940s New York-inspired character, with intimate lighting, comfortable seating and a stylish bar.
It works equally well for a business lunch, after-work drinks, date night or relaxed dinner with friends. Live music and jazz sessions add another layer to the experience, particularly in the evening.
The food
TOMA’s menu is deliberately eclectic, bringing together Asian, Western and Indonesian influences rather than restricting itself to one cuisine. Popular choices include its signature salad, crispy pork belly, back ribs, miso butter salmon and blackened karaage.
What makes the menu interesting is its willingness to experiment. Familiar comfort food gets a contemporary twist, while the cocktail program is equally creative, with drinks designed to complement the food rather than simply accompany it.
Final thoughts
TOMA Brasserie is a great all-rounder in Sudirman. The combination of stylish ambience, diverse food, creative cocktails and genuinely warm hospitality makes it particularly appealing for a long, leisurely evening.
Whether you’re meeting clients, catching up with friends or looking for a sophisticated dinner with live music, TOMA is a place that deserves a spot on your Jakarta dining list.
