I had my birthday lunch the other day and it was such a great experience. The place was aesthetically pleasing. The chipotle chicken and the wagyu roast beef were perfectly tender that you don’t even need to chew that much, fries were well seasoned and the dipping sauces were so good especially the adobo jus! Overall, we rated 5/5 and absolutely would love to go back and try other menus!

Came here for dinner and ended up ordering five items from the menu—all of their roast beef options plus the Berry Chicken. The roast beef was consistently tender and juicy across the dishes. For the rice bowls, the Umami Roast Beef definitely lives up to its name. It has a bold, savory flavor that I think people with Indonesian taste buds would really enjoy since it's more medok (rich and well-seasoned). The Golden Gravy version leans more towards a rich Western-style flavor, while the Green Garlic Beef was good but didn't stand out as much for me. The fries were absolutely bomb—crispy, well-seasoned, and worth ordering on their own. The Cheddar Beef burger was the star of the meal. Even my mom, who usually doesn't like burgers, really enjoyed it. I also didn't expect to like the Berry Chicken as much as I did. The combination of sweet and savory worked surprisingly well, although it was a bit messy to eat.

Second time coming here and everything was excellent! Best burger I’ve ever tried (Butcher’s Burger). The “Roast and Fries” dish was great though a bit chewy, but it definitely has a unique taste!! Not gonna lie, my first visit last year was a bit disappointing, but I was curious enough to give it another shot. Glad I did :) the roast is something else, and we really enjoyed the dishes this time! Try the burger and the “roast and fries”!
