1920 Lounge & Dining
Jakarta
At a glance
1920 Lounge & Dining is a speakeasy-style lounge and dining venue at Grand Kemang Hotel in South Jakarta. Its identity draws on the glamour of the 1920s while keeping the setting aligned with contemporary dining and nightlife. The atmosphere is designed for evening visits, with a polished lounge character, low-key escapism and a focus on food, drinks and live entertainment.
The menu is presented as a fine-dining experience, supported by signature dishes and carefully made drinks. The cuisine is best approached as part of a broader lounge evening rather than a narrowly defined regional concept. Dining is paired with a drinks programme that suits a relaxed start to the night, a meal with friends or a longer stay around the entertainment schedule.
Music is central to the venue. The programme includes live bands, jazz sessions and DJ nights, giving the room a changing rhythm across different evenings. Jazz brings a more intimate soundtrack, while live bands and DJs create a livelier setting for social dining and drinks. The entertainment format makes the venue relevant for guests who want more than a quiet meal, without separating the dining experience from the performance atmosphere.
The speakeasy theme provides a clear visual and social direction. It references the style of 1920s nightlife without presenting the venue as a historical recreation. Modern sophistication, evening dining and cocktails sit alongside the period-inspired character, creating a setting that works for dates, catch-ups, celebrations and after-work plans. The hotel location also gives the venue a distinct destination feel within Kemang.
1920 Lounge & Dining is suited to adults looking for dinner, drinks and live music in one place. It can work for couples, small groups and private gatherings, with private-event arrangements forming part of the venue’s offering. Guests interested in a particular musical style or a quieter dinner can check the entertainment schedule before making a reservation, as the mood may vary between jazz, band and DJ evenings.
Reservations are available, and advance planning is sensible for performance nights or private events. The venue operates as an evening destination, with later closing times on Fridays and Saturdays than on other listed nights. Its combination of fine dining, signature drinks and scheduled entertainment makes it a suitable choice for a Kemang night built around atmosphere as much as the meal.
