Chef Akira Back returns to Jakarta with fine dining on the 100th floor of Autograph Tower

Chef Akira Back brings his namesake restaurant back to the capital with contemporary Japanese fine dining on the 100th floor of Autograph Tower at Thamrin Nine – the highest dining experience in Indonesia.

After first arriving in Jakarta in 2014, Akira Back returns to the city with a new location and a new perspective, pairing his signature dishes with panoramic views across Jakarta.

The restaurant is designed around an intimate dining experience, with 60 seats in total – 52 in the main dining room and a private VIP room for up to eight guests.

At Akira Back Jakarta, Japanese technique meets the Korean and American heritage that has long influenced Chef Back's cooking, combining sushi and sashimi with seafood, robata-grilled dishes and signature creations.

The best-known dish is the AB Tuna Pizza, on a crisp base with umami aioli, micro shiso and white truffle oil. Other signatures include Kanpachi Goma and the Brother From Another Mother Roll.

The menu continues with Rock Shrimp Tempura with gochujang mayo, Grilled Octopus with shiso verde, and the 48 Hour Short Rib, while the Truffle Ice Cream Pizza closes the meal on a playful note.

Born in Seoul and raised in Aspen, Colorado, Chef Back first pursued professional snowboarding before moving into the kitchen, later building restaurants across Seoul, Bangkok, Toronto, Dubai, Hong Kong and Istanbul.

Akira Back Jakarta is open for dinner from 17:00 to 23:00, with reservations via SevenRooms and WhatsApp at +62 813-1608-080. Located at Autograph Tower, 100th Floor, Thamrin Nine, Jl. M.H. Thamrin No. 10, Central Jakarta.
