Gran Melia Jakarta proudly presents its Japanese Restaurant, Yoshi Izakaya, a trendy dining and drinking spot that serves authentic Japanese cuisines and sakes. This avant-garde yet warm and cozy restaurant features earthy tones, adorned with wooden counters and granite tables. The concept of Yoshi was inspired by Warner Wong design from WOW Architect, designed stylishly with a contemporary modern look. The unique showcase of bottles and Sake bar & lounge at the entrance invite the guests to start their picture experience with good grade sake or other beverages.

Japanese Chef of Yoshi Izakaya, Chef Tomoaki Ito, has joined Gran Meliá Jakarta prior to the opening of Yoshi Izakaya on 11 January 2011 and has shown a solid performance in leading this Japanese restaurant’s team to become one of the most sought-after authentic Izakaya in Jakarta. Following his graduation from Hatori Food and Nutrition College Japan in 1996, Ito worked in several prominent restaurants in Tokyo before embarking on travelling in Asia and worked in several Asian countries. Meeting with local guests at Yoshi Izakaya is not an issue for Ito.
