As the city’s skyscrapers rise even higher, so too has its culinary ambitions. Nothing speaks metropolitan dining more than sitting by a window that overlooks the bustling Jakarta scenes below. Perched on levels 67-69 at The Westin Jakarta, Henshin combines exquisite menus and breathtaking vistas that offer a taste of the high life, which is one of the dining features of Jakarta’s modern culinary experience.
Voted among Asia’s Top 80 Fine Dining restaurants in 2023 and Top 80 Fine Dining & Bar in 2024, Henshin provides multi-level dining rooms, a stylish bar, and a sophisticated lounger where the space exudes an observatory-like ambiance with every table that comes with a view worth lingering over.
True to its name, Henshin, which means “transformation” in Japanese, this restaurant transforms the ordinary into something extraordinary through its signature Nikkei cuisine, a fusion born from Japanese culinary techniques and the bold ingredients of Peru. Diners are invited on a flavour journey through curated tasting menus that range from four to eight courses. Highlights include delicate Piqueos bites, yellowfin tuna tartare, and the Nigiri Trio, culminating in the celebrated Carpassion Ceviche with Leche de Tigre. Rich mains such as Australian Black Angus tenderloin follow, before finishing with desserts like Suspiro de Maracuya, a passion fruit delight balanced by the tang of camu-camu. Each course can be thoughtfully paired with wine or sake, heightening the sensory experience.
For those who prefer to chart their own course, Henshin’s à la carte offerings are equally irresistible. Standout dishes include the Nikkei Wagyu Beef Tartare, decadent Henshin Rolls layered with salmon belly and foie gras, scallop and octopus ceviche, and spiny lobster dressed with smoked rocoto butter. Even familiar comfort food is elevated. Here, ramen is reinvented with wagyu striploin, bone marrow, and a rich golden curry broth. The menu is a testament to culinary innovation, where every plate is as visually stunning as the cityscape outside.
Beyond the cuisine and the view, Henshin enriches the dining experience through its partnership with Marriott Bonvoy. Members can earn points with every meal, redeemable for free nights and dining privileges worldwide!
