5 This place was nice! Really love the decor and warmth fills this place up. Came here with my friends for dinner and really enjoyed it. The food was so inventive! I love my aglio olio spaghetti and their fried cassava tastes really good. Must try. Service was quick and we are really thankful for Mas Fauzi for the service.

5 The Acre is a lovely hidden gem in Jakarta. The atmosphere is calm, green, and cozy—perfect for relaxing or having a quiet conversation. The space feels thoughtfully designed, blending nature and comfort beautifully. Food and drinks are well-prepared, and the overall experience is very pleasant. A great place to unwind away from the city noise.
5 Really nice place for relaxing Sunday brunch or work meetings. The Acre Menteng has plenty of tables and the place is huge! Which explains the rather premium pricing for food & drinks, but portion size is gigantic so definitely worth the value. Our big party ordered a lot, including their signature crispy duck which can easily feed 3-4 pax, nasi goreng kecombrang was not greasy and perfectly spiced, oxtail soup was one of the biggest portion I've seen in a while, and double truffle burger was not drowned in sauce/mayo so that's a win for me. Nachos and truffle fries were good too for appetisers, though we didn't have to wait long for our mains to come out. Totally recommend The Acre
5 My friend and I came here for a much-needed lunch catch-up and were looking for something warm, delicious, and a place with a quiet ambiance. The food we ordered was excellent, featuring a delicious combination of local and Italian flavors. I had the Mushroom Ravioli, which is clearly one of their best dishes, and my friend ordered the Chicken Matah (the colorful sambal in the picture is as vibrant and tasty as it looks!). For drinks, definitely try the fresh carrot and orange juices—they're best without ice. The price range is quite pricey, but absolutely worth it for the quality of the food. However, be prepared for some crowds, as this place is quite popular. We came during lunch, and it was quite noisy due to a birthday celebration from other customers, so choose your timing carefully! Overall, we loved the food and drinks.
5 one of the lovely cafes in Central Jakarta. I love the ambiance and the food they serve. There are various choices, including Indonesian favorite munchies and food like singkong goreng, tahu kipas, ikan bakar, sup buntut, and more. We can also order many western food here like pasta, burgers, sandwiches, pizza, salad, and more. I also love the desserts and the danish pastries they have. The room is spacious. They have room on the upper floor, outside near the garden area, and also some private rooms. The service is great, fast and friendly. Price wise is manageable and relatively friendly. The parking lot is big and available. They have small mushola outside of the restaurant, near the parking lot. the restaurant is not too accessible, unfortunately. When we want to enter the restaurant area, there is a platform which we have to step down. It's a bit tricky for those using the wheelchairs.
Many guests enjoy the inventive aglio olio spaghetti and fried cassava, while the beer and cocktail selections are also highly recommended.
