Toscana Reopens with New Flair
September 12, 2023
The inception of Toscana holds a profound personal significance for its proprietor, Mrs. Ellyta Soetantyo.

Distinguished as one of Jakarta’s pioneering authentic Italian restaurants, Toscana has consistently offered an immersive culinary experience steeped in Italian traditions for 27 years. At that time, Mrs. Ellyta fearlessly introduced a unique concept: an unpretentious yet sophisticated dining establishment featuring a menu of cherished Italian comfort cuisine, using high-quality ingredients typically found at five-star hotels.
