After a six month rejuvenation, the legendary Italian restaurant in South Jakarta is ready to welcome guests back with a new look, a fresh menu, and an elevated dining experience.
The inception of Toscana holds a profound personal significance for its proprietor, Mrs. Ellyta Soetantyo. Her great love for Italy’s vibrant culture and exceptional cuisine, particularly in the cities of Milan and Rome, led her to establish Toscana on July 27, 1996.
Distinguished as one of Jakarta’s pioneering authentic Italian restaurants, Toscana has consistently offered an immersive culinary experience steeped in Italian traditions for 27 years. At that time, Mrs. Ellyta fearlessly introduced a unique concept: an unpretentious yet sophisticated dining establishment featuring a menu of cherished Italian comfort cuisine, using high-quality ingredients typically found at five-star hotels.
This year marks a significant milestone for Toscana as it ushers in a fresh era of hospitality. Following an extensive six-month renovation, Toscana is now poised to extend a warm welcome to its guests, unveiling a brand-new logo, a stunning aesthetic transformation, the introduction of a talented new chef, and a completely revitalized menu.
While staying true to its long-standing tradition of serving delectable dishes that have delighted its patrons for years, Toscana’s rejuvenation is geared towards broadening its customer base and venturing into new markets with its time-tested concept. Amidst all these exciting changes, Toscana remains steadfast in preserving its core values: authenticity and providing guests with comfort and satisfaction.
The Understated Elegant Design
Toscana’s revitalized design takes cues from the enduring rustic charm that defines the restaurant’s character. The famous exposed brick walls have made way for blue-painted surfaces complemented by rich wooden accents, resulting in a modern aesthetic that seamlessly integrates with the updated furnishings. Towards the entrance, an air-conditioned terrace beckons guests who seek a semi-alfresco dining experience. The glasshouse sits 16 people in utmost comfort.
The new look of Toscana’s main dining area now features a sophisticated bar that can accommodate up to 6 guests and a pizza bar that can accommodate 4 guests.
This exquisite bar is graced with a contemporary light fixture suspended above the bartender’s workspace, where their skilled mixologists artfully prepare an array of refreshing beverages, including a range of signature cocktails. The indoor area sits a total of 60 guests in tables and booths, with an addition of a 10-seat private dining room, ideal for intimate dinners or small gatherings.
