Stonegrill

Let me tell you how much i hate Jakarta Traffic. I wanted to eat in this restaurant that my friend recommended me, which supposedly is only 15 minutes away from where i lived but then the traffic was crazy. I am strongly recommending that on Saturday nights make you plan an hour faster if you want to arrive to your place on time. Yes, and whats worse when i got to the place, it was so full and crowded that i decided to eat at another steak house that is in my opinion much better in terms of atmosphere. So i went to Stonegrill in Arteri. People should really go here, i don't understand why whenever i go to this place, its always...empty. What is not to like? The steak is good, they have a decent decoration which provides a good atmosphere for a candlelight dinner. Not to mention the price is cheap and the service are great. I really love Jakarta's service when it comes on Fine dining, the people are so nice and helpful that they are the one who offers the service, not us calling them. I ordered the Portobello On Stone, Aussie Sirloin Steak, Brownies Ala Mode and Crepes Suzette. Did i forgot to mention one of the uniqueness of this restaurant is that the food is served on this heated stone at your table? The presentation was certainly unique, i can tell you that. The stone is at the temperature of 400° Celsius, sears in all the natural juices and nutrients, the taste obviously was fresh and really good. The Portobebello on Stone is their favorite, basically it serves the large mushroom on the stone and we cooked it by our selves. The mushroom was really good, the sweet sauce makes it one of my favorite taste in the restauramt. The Steak was good, my favorite in this dish is actually the side dishes, the dish is served with three choices of sauce and potatoes, i chose mushroom sauce and mashed potatoes. The mash potatoes was really good, no kidding. I like the dessert too, my favorite is the Crepes Suzette, its basically a Sweet orange custard topped with caramelized sugar. The taste is very sweet so for every sweet lovers out there, this is a must try food. The brownies ala mode was good too, the usual type of brownies that i have eaten, nothing particularly special. For steak lovers, but in short of cash, check this place out!
