Welcome to Yakiniku Great Jakarta, a culinary gem nestled in the vibrant streets of South Jakarta, specifically at Jl. Suryo No.30 Lantai 1. This establishment is a haven for lovers of Japanese cuisine, particularly those with a penchant for premium wagyu and the art of yakiniku grilling. With a commitment to quality, Yakiniku Great provides an exquisite dining experience that marries traditional flavors with modern elegance.
Recently, I had the pleasure of indulging in their acclaimed omakase sets. Opting for the Omakase Matsu and Omakase Kiwami, I discovered eight meticulously curated cuts of glorious wagyu that transported my palate to new heights. The Matsu set featured standout offerings like Misuji and Fillet, alongside the show-stopping Kimurayaki—a sukiyaki-style sirloin paired with a rich, velvety Japanese egg yolk. It’s a perfect blend of comfort and luxury that leaves an indelible mark on your taste buds.
Then came the Kiwami experience, which presented the luxurious Uni Chateaubriand. This dish alone was a testament to culinary artistry: thick, buttery chateaubriand adorned with fresh Hokkaido uni, resting delicately over rice, and enhanced by a delectable house-made sauce. The sheer richness of these ingredients was nothing short of euphoric—a true feast for the senses.
The grilling process at Yakiniku Great is particularly noteworthy. Each cut is handled expertly by the staff, emphasizing precision and timing to achieve the perfect doneness. Their attentive service rivals the opulence of the meals they serve; staff members not only grill but also educate diners about each cut and the best sauce pairings, enriching the overall dining experience. Guests like Alex Tan rave about the knowledgeable yet friendly demeanor of the team, making every visit feel special.
The intimate atmosphere of Yakiniku Great adds to its charm. With a thoughtfully designed space that balances elegance and comfort, it’s ideal for both romantic dinners and business gatherings. Reviewers have noted the calming ambience, punctuated by just the right level of background music, making it a delightful place to savor every moment of your meal.
On top of all this, Yakiniku Great proudly sources its Halal-certified A5 Black Wagyu directly from Japan. Each choice exemplifies the finest marbling, ensuring that every bite reflects unparalleled quality and flavor—a detail that dedicated food enthusiasts will undoubtedly appreciate.

Very excited to try Yakiniku Great’s new Jakarta branch and it absolutely lives up to its name! We went for dinner and ordered two of their premium omakase sets: - Omakase Matsu (IDR 1,450mio++ per pax) - Omakase Kiwami (IDR 1,900mio++ per pax) Each set includes 8 curated cuts of premium wagyu, and both were an incredible experience. Some standout cuts for us were the Misuji, Fillet, and Saikyo. They were unbelievably tender and flavorful. Matsu’s highlight was the Kimurayaki, a sukiyaki-style sirloin served with a rich Japanese egg yolk. Feels like comfort food, but elevated to luxury levels. Whereas, the Kiwami set includes Uni Chateaubriand, which was next-level: thick, buttery chateaubriand topped with fresh Hokkaido uni, served over rice with a delicious house-made sauce. Each set also came with a Wagyu sushi appetizer, which was alright and quickly got overshadowed by the other cuts within the set. The whole grilling process was done by staff to ensure everything is super precise, down to the second, and they even advised us on the best sauces to pair with each cut. That level of detail really made the experience special. The atmosphere was elegant and serene, with a moderate noise level, aside from one or two tables being slightly louder during our dinner session. Perfect for date nights or business dinners. Staff were attentive, knowledgeable, and friendly (though might seem a bit performative, when you’re not in the mood). Also appreciated the fact that the staff mentioned, they use Halal-certified A5 Black Wagyu, air-flown chilled (never frozen) directly from Japan (Kagoshima, Miyazaki, and another region which I can’t recall). Only marbling grades 10–12 are used and you can taste that richness and tenderness in every bite. All in all, a 10/10 experience. Definitely one of the best wagyu yakiniku experiences in Jakarta right now.

SERVICE (4/5) I love on how all of their staffs greet the guest, explain their menus, and the knowledge of the menus. Staffs also doing great on how they grill the meat. Great job ATMOSPHERE (4/5) Seating area is quite plenty, and also spacious enough to give you the feel of private. Ambience music is also just right. Lightings and decorations is well put FOOD (4/5) The meat selection which they offers in their menus are all great. The omakase menu offers you a pretty wide selection of different kind of cuts. Sauce, and marinations of the meats are also well balanced and not offer exaggerated.

We visited the restaurant on a Sunday evening as a party of three. The atmosphere was calm and pleasant, with a comfortable level of crowd. We ordered the Omakase Kiwami, and the meat was excellent—tender, flavorful, and beautifully marbled. Our favorite was the final course, the Chateau Briand, which was truly exceptional. As a suggestion, the uni could be improved as it did not taste as fresh as expected. The staff member who served us was attentive and gave clear, detailed explanations about each cut of meat presented.
