After a successful first year introducing authentic Basque fire cooking to Jakarta, ERRE & Urrechu Jakarta enters a new chapter, reaffirming its Spanish culinary heritage while evolving into a more approachable yet refined dining destination.
Located at Gran Meliá Jakarta, the restaurant celebrates its first anniversary with an evolving culinary vision led by renowned Spanish chef Íñigo Urrechu. This milestone marks the introduction of refreshed dining experiences, new menu creations, enhanced wine offerings, and a strengthened leadership team.
As the first ERRE & Urrechu concept in Asia, the restaurant continues the legacy of Chef Íñigo Urrechu’s acclaimed establishments in Barcelona and Marbella, Spain. Since opening in Jakarta, it has become recognised for its authentic Basque fire-cooking philosophy, elevated hospitality, and welcoming dining atmosphere.
To mark this new chapter, ERRE & Urrechu Jakarta has launched a refreshed menu that remains rooted in Spanish and Basque gastronomy while offering more accessible options for a wider range of dining occasions.
The updated menu showcases fire-driven cooking techniques, premium ingredients, and refined flavours through dishes such as Flame-Grilled Basque Pintxo with warm tomato pilpil sauce, Buttered Brioche with sweet crab stew and citrus-kimchi mayonnaise, Traditional Catalonian seafood and fish soup, Grilled Barramundi Fillet with creamy gnocchi, and ERRE’s Signature Wagyu MB5 “Chuletón Español” served with smoked and roasted seasonal vegetables. Guests can finish their meal with the restaurant’s signature Basque-style cheesecake, reflecting its commitment to authenticity, craftsmanship, and contemporary dining.
The dining experience is further enhanced with the appointment of Alfiansyah as Sommelier. Recognised as Indonesia’s Best Sommelier 2021, he brings extensive expertise in wine curation and pairing, enriching the restaurant’s wine programme through carefully selected pairings and engaging guest experiences.
ERRE & Urrechu Jakarta has also welcomed Aditya Prasapta as Restaurant Manager. With more than 20 years of experience in luxury hospitality, restaurants, and lifestyle brands, he will lead the restaurant’s continued focus on service excellence and memorable guest experiences.
“After one year in Jakarta, we wanted this new chapter to reflect not only the authenticity of our Basque culinary roots, but also the evolving way people dine and connect through food,” said Chef Íñigo Urrechu. “We are introducing new flavours, new experiences, and a more approachable way for guests to enjoy the spirit of ERRE & Urrechu Jakarta while maintaining the craftsmanship and philosophy that define our cuisine.”
To celebrate its anniversary, the restaurant will host a series of intimate culinary experiences, including “Behind The Fire of ERRE”, an exclusive luncheon with Chef Íñigo Urrechu for selected media and culinary tastemakers, followed by “A Toast to ERRE’s New Chapter”, a special anniversary dinner featuring a curated Basque-inspired menu paired with exceptional wines.
Through this new chapter, ERRE & Urrechu Jakarta remains committed to delivering authentic Spanish gastronomy, immersive fire-cooking experiences, and world-class hospitality while strengthening its position as one of Jakarta’s leading culinary destinations.
