Gunawarman stays itself while the rest of Jakarta performs.
Why GUNAWARMAN, why now
The Gunawarman strip in Kebayoran Baru is seeing a cluster of new openings in June 2026, including Yakiniku Jumbo and established buzz spots like % Arabica and Greyhound Cafe. The street has become one of South Jakarta's most active cafe and dining corridors this year, drawing heavy foot traffic and social media coverage.
1. Sate Padang Ajo Ramon
- Area Parkir, Pasar Santa, Jl. Cipaku I No.5 5, RT.5/RW.4, Petogogan, Kec. Kby. Baru, Kota Jakarta Selatan, Daerah Khusus Ibukota Jakarta 12170
- 4.6 · 2961 reviews · Sate
Sate Padang Ajo Ramon opens the course because lunch should land before the dinner wave starts building. It's the appetite anchor, the kind of stop that lets you commit to a night meal later without guessing how hungry you'll be. A midday start here means you're working with the strip's rhythm, not against the crowd that arrives after six.

The stools wait. You don't have to yet.

2. BAKED. Gunawarman
- Jl. Gunawarman No.26, RT.5/RW.2, Selong, Kec. Kby. Baru, Kota Jakarta Selatan, Daerah Khusus Ibukota Jakarta 12110

BAKED. Gunawarman closes the route because the night needs a place that doesn't demand much from you. After the street has filled and the new openings have done their work, this is where the course softens. It holds the last hour without pushing you out, and that's the note to leave Gunawarman on.

The walk between
Between the two, you're covering the length of the strip itself. The cafes and new restaurant fronts that pulled the foot traffic are the same ones you'll pass, and by the time you reach BAKED., the corridor has shifted from daylight service to the glow that keeps people on the street after dark.
- Start the course between noon and two so the sate stop sits comfortably before the evening crowd begins stacking at the newer spots along the strip.
- If the night feels long, BAKED. lets you hold a table without the pressure of a timed seating, which matters when the rest of Gunawarman is moving fast around you.
FAQ
- Does this course work if I'm coming from Central Jakarta in the afternoon?
- It does, as long as you land at the first stop before mid-afternoon. The gap between stops is wide enough to absorb a cafe detour or a walk through the newer openings if you want to stretch the route.
- How crowded does the strip get at night?
- Foot traffic picks up heavily after six, especially near the newer restaurants and % Arabica. BAKED. sits at a point where you're still in the energy but not fighting for space on the sidewalk.
