Wilshire aims to introduce Californian cuisine and lifestyle to the Indonesian market, but not to forget to also promote the “Wilshire Experience.” Offering wide variety of fresh gourmet californian dishes, the place also boasts its liquor collections with single malt whiskies and exotic vodkas.

There’s a contrast in the design between the masculine and feminine sides, but still manages to find a middle ground to balance the two, creating a unique sense of warmth and cozy ambiance that is crucial to the dining experience that is to be called the “Wilshire Experience”.

Materials dominating the place are dark colours, copper ,and floral mosaic in the interior. Consistent with the concept, there are two groups of materials, the masculine and the feminine. The masculine group consists of industrial materials like copper,steel, and galvanized steel, yet the feminine group consists of floral tiles mosaic and crystal chandeliers. The two sides combines perfectly, complimenting each other’s uniqueness.
