Perched high above the city skyline in Mega Kuningan, a new flame has been lit in the heart of Jakarta’s dining scene. Swissôtel Living Jakarta Mega Kuningan proudly unveils Embers Open-Fire Grill, its signature restaurant that invites guests into a bold and immersive culinary experience where global grilling traditions meet contemporary elegance.
More than just a restaurant, Embers is a story told through fire. It’s a celebration of connection, craftsmanship, and culinary discovery. Its name reflects both the visual allure and emotional warmth of glowing coals, symbolising the timeless power of fire to bring people together.
At its core, Embers blends a distinctly Japanese sensibility with an Indonesian soul, interpreting the open flame in a way that feels both refined and approachable. From the moment guests enter, they are welcomed into a warm, visually captivating space. At the centre stands a glowing open kitchen, where flames dance, ingredients sizzle, and chefs craft their creations in real time. Every detail, from the aroma of charred citrus to the sound of a perfectly seared steak, contributes to a rich, multisensory narrative.
The menu showcases bold flavours and honest ingredients, each dish thoughtfully cooked over an open flame. Begin with the Beef Yakitori Skewers, a refined take on Japanese street food featuring juicy Australian Black Angus grilled to perfection. The Tuna Tartare offers a refreshing contrast, combining sashimi-grade tuna, zesty charred citrus, and crispy seaweed, served in an interactive, build-your-own style.
From the grill, premium meats take centre stage. Diners can choose the Tajima Wagyu Ribeye or the Tomahawk Steak, both richly marbled and beautifully charred. Equally tempting is the Smoked Wagyu Brisket, slow-cooked until tender and infused with deep, smoky flavour.
The experience goes beyond the plate through the Behind Bar concept, which boasts an intimate beverage corner that transitions from a refreshing daytime station to an engaging, interactive bar by night. Guests are encouraged to connect directly with bartenders, observe the artistry behind each cocktail, and savour a selection of house-crafted drinks in a relaxed, convivial atmosphere.
Whether for a business lunch or a celebratory evening under the stars, Embers offers an ambiance where every moment feels like an occasion. With its sleek yet cosy design and panoramic views that transform from day to night, the space embodies Swissôtel’s philosophy of well-being, indulgence, and meaningful quality time.
