Yellowfin Sake Bar and Kitchen

Famously known as the first sake bar in Jakarta, this Japanese joint in Senopati sets the bar high with impressive selections of imported sake & beer populating their shelves. Boasting an interior that resemble a traditional izakaya combined with lounge music and DJ playing in one corner, Yellowfin offers both contemporary and traditional culinary experience in one sitting. As a heads up, it is mostly packed from dinner time onwards. Booking ahead of time is preferable. However, once you’re in, prepare to indulge yourself in various Japanese dishes from grilled items to sushi, sashimi, yakitori, and ramen. If you’re a salad person, start off with their Ebi Tempura Salad, or if you’re more on the adventurous side, give Siokara Pizza a try. Its softly mashed salmon will melt in your mouth in instant. Guaranteed to make you crave for more. Head on to the mains with either fresh Salmon Sashimi or Gindara Saikyo Yaki, a well seasoned gindara fish right off the grill that can be the equal partner in your sake adventure. Those who seek for lighter dose of alcohol can try Lychee Saketini, a fusion blend between traditional Japanese rice wine with lychee as the modern twist, all in a form of martini.
