Sampel penelitian ini adalah pasien rawat inap yang memenuhi kriteria inklusi dan dipilih secara purposive sampling yaitu sebanyak 94 pasien. Penelitian ini bersifat deskriptif dengan rancangan penelitian potong lintang (cross sectional). Daya terima diukur berdasarkan hasil selisih antara penimbangan berat awal makanan dengan sisa makanan pasien dalam sehari. Dari hasil penelitian ini prevalensi rata-rata total daya terima makanan lunak responden dalam sehari adalah sebesar 72,4%. Terdapat hubungan bermakna antara penampilan makanan, rasa makanan, menu makanan, dan pelayanan penyaji dengan daya terima makanan responden. Tidak terdapat hubungan yang bermakna antara usia, jenis kelamin, dan penyajian makanan dengan daya terima makanan responden. Oleh karena itu perlu adanya peningkatan lagi mengenai mutu makanan terutama penampilan makanan, rasa makanan, menu makanan, dan pelayanan penyaji di RSPAD Gatot Soebroto Jakarta agar daya terima pasien menjadi baik.
