Donburi Ichiya is Japanese bowl bar specialized in Donburi aka rice bowl with various meat toppings. Following the success of their first outlet at Lippo Mall Puri, the have recently opened second outlet at Living World Alam Sutera area.
The interior is simple with nostalgic touch from old Japanese stores with old Japanese posters, dark wooden walls and also old Japanese music. AnakJajan just love the way they pay attention to details that really complete the old nostalgic ambiance just like the unique music selection for example Bengawan Solo song with Japanese lyric produced decades ago.

*(exclude tax)
Gyu Don, Mini IDR 40.9k/ Regular IDR 45.5k*
with Garlic Butter and Onsen Tamago IDR 6.4k
Gyu Don is a simmered thinly sliced beef with onion served over rice. AnakJajan highly recommend you to have Gyu Don with garlic butter because it really brings regular beef bowl into the next level. The garlic butter just really enhance the flavor of Gyu Don, it makes the sweet yet savory based beef even more delicious when you mix it with buttery aromatic garlic butter. Sooo good!
Aburi Salmon Don, IDR 40.9k/ Regular IDR 45.5k
with Spicy Mayo sauce and Onsen Tamago IDR 6.4k
Aburi Salmon Don consist of slightly torched chopped salmon. Chopped salmon was cooked on the outside while still pink raw in the middle to maintain the soft tender texture of salmon. The charred aroma of torched salmon was very tantalizing, mix it with spicy mayo and onsen tamago for creamier texture.
Yakitori Don Mini, IDR 31.8k/ Regular IDR 36.4k
with Garlic Butter and Onsen Tamago IDR 6.4k
Char-grilled chicken over rice. Chicken was nicely grilled with aromatic charred aroma, the combination of Yakitori Don with garlic butter and onsen tamago was just perfect.
Karaage Don, Mini IDR 31.8k/ Regular IDR 36.4k
with Soy Honey sauce and Melted Cheese IDR 6.4k
This menu was our favorite. Deep fried marinated chicken over rice with soy honey sauce and melted cheese. Chicken was juicy and crunchy at the same time and it tasted even better when it is coated with sweet yet savory Soy Honey sauce. And don’t forget to add melted cheese for stringy and creamy cheese texture and flavor. Gosh!! I’m getting hungry already just by looking at pictures below.
Overall, Donburi Ichiya definitely is a place for affordable Japanese comfort food, the food were simply satisfying. Let’s Jajan!!
