Immigrant Bar Jakarta (Plaza Indonesia)

Immigrant is a new trendy place in Jakarta and, for once, it isn't just about marketing. In my opinion, Immigrant is a great nightlife spot offering good crowd, perfect location (with a superb panorama of Jakarta by night), interesting events and stylish design. It is quite big, in between Blowfish and X2, but it is full most of the time. I've been there a few times during weekends recently (July 2011), and I think it is the most happening nightclub in Jakarta at the moment.

The music can be too commercial and the crowd too posh for some people, especially during the weekend. To avoid that, you can come instead during weekdays, Wednesday is usually great for instance.

Immigrant resembles a NYC loft with vintage, industrial design and dim-lighting. The restaurant and the nightclub are well-separated from each other, so it is possible to finish your meal even after the music gets loud around midnight. Excellent steaks among other stuff.

The crowd in Immigrant is upmarket, with many expats and executives. I would say people look much older than the average club in Jakarta: If you are an expat between 25 and 40, looking for a neat party spot, this is the place you should go to (or Dragonfly).

Opening hours:
Immigrant is open everyday from 11am until late. Resident DJ from Wednesday to Saturday.
