Java Wok Restaurant

Java Wok is a bit hard to find, but worth a try if you work near Sampoerna Strategic Square and need a place to eat in the area

The restaurant has a roof, but no walls on one side, so you feel as if you were eating outside. It is only a few hundred meters away from busy Jalan Sudirman, and yet it does not feel too noisy, too polluted or too hot. The fans cool down the air, and the design is relaxing, with a small fountain and stones on the walls.

There is no " la carte" menu but a buffet of typical Sundanese dishes, a bit like the one you could find in Bumbu Desa restaurants (but cheaper). You need to choose your food first, then sit down and wait for someone to bring it to you. Almost all dishes are spicy but you can always find a few specialties that are not.

Overall, I recommend this restaurant, especially for office workers in the Sudirman area. Their food is fresh, the service is fast, and the place is modern (also with wifi). Your average bill should be less than Rp 40,000, including drinks, twice as much as a food stall but much more comfortable.

You can also ask for delivery if you order for at least Rp 100,000 (1km area): Call +62-21 5290 5103
