The best places to eat and do in Indonesia, according to the experts: the Forbes Travel Guide, Vogue, and the World's 50 Beaches have all weighed in, and their honors are what rank this list. Mandapa Spa comes out on top, and the good stuff runs deepest in Bali and Jakarta.

  1. The sand here is pink, not as a metaphor but as a geological fact: crushed red coral mixing with white sand produces a color that looks like a filter someone forgot to turn off. Part of Komodo National Park, the beach sits among rugged islands whose hues shift through the seasons, and the water below is clear enough that snorkeling reveals the coral responsible for the whole spectacle. Named to The World's 50 Best Beaches.

  7. A 50-seat fine dining room in Jakarta's Sequis Tower where a large open kitchen takes up most of the real estate, so dinner comes with a full view of the team at work. The chef's counter looks directly into the pastry section, overseen by Asia's Best Pastry Chef 2026. The menu draws on Indonesian flavors reworked through French technique, childhood memory and all. August holds a spot on Asia's 50 Best Restaurants.


  8. A rooftop food forest, a fermentation lab, and an underground mushroom chamber set the tone before you've eaten a bite. This plant-forward, multi-course fine dining restaurant in Ubud pulls almost entirely from Indonesia's own biodiversity, with hyper-local and foraged ingredients running through a menu that can stretch to twenty courses. Concrete and modular outside, rice-field views through oversized windows within. It holds a spot on Asia's 50 Best Restaurants list.



  9. A tasting menu restaurant in Jakarta's business district, Esa is where chef Aditya Muskita runs a 14-course evening menu he calls "New Jakarta cuisine," threading Indonesian culinary traditions through a fine dining lens. Lunch is a la carte if a full tasting menu commitment feels ambitious. Kluwak-nut sauce, charred squid curry, and salmon roe tartlets make the argument more eloquently than the label does. It landed on The 50 Discovery list.

  11. The name means "archipelago" in Javanese, and the kitchen takes that literally, pulling regional dishes from across Indonesia's 17,000 islands that rarely make it onto menus outside their home provinces. It's a stylish sit-down restaurant in Ubud, all light woods and rattan, where a brigade of Indonesian-born chefs works through traditional flavor combinations most visitors have never encountered. A spin-off of Locavore NXT, from the same team next door.

  14. Rank 16. Casa Cuomo

    Neapolitan Italian

    High ceilings, enormous chandeliers, and a black-and-white marble floor set the scene at this Neapolitan Italian restaurant in South Jakarta. Chef Salvatore Cuomo built his name bringing Neapolitan cooking across Asia, and Casa Cuomo sits at number 20 on the 50 Top Italy global list. The bar is a destination on its own, and the wine list is priced without the usual Jakarta markup. Dress smart; the room invites it.

    Neapolitan Pizzeria

    A wood-fired Neapolitan pizza spot in West Java, certified by the True Neapolitan Pizza Association and landing at number 42 on 50 Top Pizza Asia-Pacific. The dough is thin, well-leavened, and light, with toppings that stay balanced rather than competitive. The family runs it with the kind of warmth that makes a simple room feel looked after, and the Italian breakfast draws people in before the ovens are even properly hot.


  21. Rank 47. Pizzeria Cavalese

    Neapolitan Pizzeria

    A Neapolitan-style crust rolled thin and finished light enough to flex under the weight of fried calamari is the signature move at this Italian-Asian pizza spot in North Jakarta's Sunter district. The chef trained in a Trentino village and brought that sensibility home, blending timeless pies with bolder, spice-forward riffs. Pasta and risotto fill out the menu for anyone not in a pizza mood. It ranked 34th on 50 Top Pizza Asia-Pacific.

      Four fifths of the score is the awards it's won, weighted by who gave them: a Michelin Key outweighs a listicle. The last fifth is where it is: the ranked places to eat and things to do around it, and how safe the country is. When you sort by what's nearby, distance from you changes the order, never the score.

          Best Place Score

          The Best Place Score rates the area around a point, not any one place. The places are 60% of it: the best of what's within reach, weighed by distance. The setting is the other 40%: how life goes in that country (how people rate their own lives, how long and how well they live, how safe they are) and what it's like right there (the air, and the weather). If the score looks low, we probably haven't found enough critics out here yet.
