Founded in late 2021 by Chef Hans Christian and Budi Cahyadi, August is located on the ground floor of Sequis Tower in SCBD. It reimagines Indonesian flavors using French culinary techniques, ranking 42nd on Asia's 50 Best Restaurants 2026 and winning Best Restaurant in Indonesia for the third consecutive year.

Signatures include the Breakfast Roll with seaweed butter and octopus with laksa sauce, while the Foie PB&J can be ordered as an add-on.
