The best restaurants in Berawa
1. SHUN Omakase Counter
Intimate Japanese omakase counter serving seasonal multi-course degustations with premium produce.
If you’re looking for a truly immersive dining experience in Berawa, SHUN Omakase Counter is in a league of its own. In fact, I’m going as far to say it’s one of the best dining experiences I’ve had in Bali in 14 years.
This is a fine-dining Japanese omakase experience with just 11 seats and two seatings per night, where everyone dines at the same time. From start to finish, the chef prepares every course directly in front of you, serving guests one by one across a tightly choreographed 13- or 18-course menu.
The experience begins with refined appetisers like scallops, smoked amberjack and angel hair pasta with sweet prawns, before moving into pristine sashimi, hand-formed sushi, Japanese wagyu beef and dessert. The setting is small and deliberately intimate, with minimalist interiors, a glowing onyx light, and curing fridges displaying premium sake and whole fish hanging on hooks.
It’s immersive, theatrical and an absolute must-try for any serious foodie.
Signature dishes: Angel Hair Pasta, Smoked Amberjack, Miyasaki Wagyu beef
Local tip: Book on a Thursday if you can, because the fish arrives fresh from Japan every Wednesday.
Good to know: SHUN is tucked away inside The Komu Hotel, right at the back next to Aged & Butchered.
Address: The Komu Hotel, Jl Pantai Berawa No. 99, Berawa, Canggu

2. Mosto
Indonesia’s first natural wine bar serving French-Aussie neo-bistro plates and low-intervention wines.
If natural wine is your thing (or you’re curious to try it properly), Mosto is one of Berawa’s most exciting dinner spots right now. From the trailblazing Mexicola Group (Da Maria, Luigi’s, Motel Mexicola), this French-Aussie neo-bistro pairs a forward-thinking food menu with Indonesia’s first dedicated natural wine programme.
The menu is creative and produce-led, with dishes like the crostini in shoyu burnt butter, chicken liver pâté lifted with brem wine, and tagliolini tossed with sambal arrabbiata. The kitchen’s playful approach makes this a great spot for sharing and trying something new.
And with around 70 low-intervention bottles available, wine is a must here. The knowledgeable team will happily guide you through skin-contact, pet-nat and minimal-intervention pours. In short, come for the food, stay for the wine and the buzzing atmosphere.
Psst – here’s my full review from my recent dinner at Mosto.
Signature dishes: Crostini, Taglioni, Chicken Liver Pâté
Local tip: If you’re unsure what to order, tell the team what you usually drink and they’ll steer you right.
Good to know: The menu is the work of Chef Lorenzo De Petris, whose background spans Michelin-starred kitchens in Italy and England.

3. 12 Kitchen & Wine
A cosy Berawa dinner spot known for its well-executed dishes and a strong, wine-led menu.
One of Berawa’s newest openings, 12 Kitchen & Wine has already earned its place on our go-to list. It’s a lovely spot by day, but it’s at night that this cosy Berawa restaurant really comes to life.
The space itself feels warm and tropical, with low lighting and Mediterranean-meets-Bali vibes. This welcoming setting draws in couples and small groups, lingering over crowd-pleasers like chargrilled half spring chicken, grilled MB3 tenderloin and fresh oysters, alongside lighter plates and vegan options on request. It’s a great choice when dining with mixed tastes.
Wine is a real highlight here too. There are classic varietals alongside natural wines, making it just as appealing for a wine-led dinner as it is for a full meal. With friendly service and an atmosphere that feels elevated but never stiff, it’s perfect for a romantic dinner in Berawa or a more low-key night out.
Signature dishes: Oysters, Half Spring Chicken, Grilled MB3 Tenderloin.
Local tip: Come here if you’re dining in a group – the menu is full of crowd-pleasers for different tastes.

4. Riviera Bistro
Contemporary French-Mediterranean restaurant specialising in seafood, wines and relaxed Riviera charm.
When a restaurant is full most nights of the week, you know it’s doing something right. And that’s exactly why Riviera Bistro first caught my eye. It’s buzzing and beautiful, and it’s brought a slice of the French coast to Berawa. The menu follows suit, with contemporary French-Mediterranean cuisine that feel fancy without feeling stuffy. You can definitely dine here after a day at the beach, or for a boozy dinner with friends.
Seafood is the clear focus here, with fresh flavours taking centre stage. Start with the tuna tartare or scallop crudo, then move onto heartier plates like the Provence seafood soup or grilled meats. The burrata with pickled capsicum is a crowd favourite, and the curated wine list consists of mostly French and European labels. The perfect spread for such a breezy, polished setting.
Signature dishes: Burrata Cheese, Provence Seafood Soup, Black Angus Picanha
Local tip: Start with a seafood crudo or tartare, then share a few bigger plates as mains – it’s the best way to ‘do’ Riviera.

5. One Eyed Jack
Modern Japanese izakaya and sake bar serving refined small plates in a moody, intimate setting.
One Eyed Jack has long been one of my favourite restaurants in Berawa. Especially when I’m craving really good Japanese food in a very special setting. It’s a contemporary izakaya and sake bar, which, if you’ve been to Japan, you’ll know this means buzzing vibes, great drinks and delish Japanese bites. Well, One Eyed Jack delivers exactly that, and then some.
The master behind the menu is an ex-Nobu chef, and his dishes are a mix of traditional techniques and playful, contemporary touches. Think tempura oysters, chicken tsukune bao sliders, and spicy crispy rice bites (the latter has been around since the beginning, and they’re still my favourite!). Then of course, there’s plenty of sushi, sashimi and sake too.
All of this is served inside a moody, dimly lit space. It’s draped in shades of black and red, with vintage photos of geisha on the walls. It’s ideal for date night or a special dinner with friends.

6. Ghost Kitchen & Record Bar
A retro-cool dinner spot pairing bold dishes with craft cocktails and a vinyl-powered ambience.
I’d heard about Ghost Kitchen & Record Bar long before I got to try it. Though it’s barely a year old, it’s easily one of the most popular restaurants in Berawa. It’s a vibey, retro mix of a restaurant and a vinyl listening bar, with a bold, modern menu and serious cocktails. The dimly lit interiors, vintage records and relaxed energy make it an easy choice for dinner and cocktails, and there’s a lively crowd most nights.
The menu spans the land and sea, from Wagyu beef tartare, to baked ocean trout and jerk pork chop. And of course, the craft cocktails are just as impressive, namely their twist on my favourite, the classic Negroni. After just one visit, it’s quickly become one of my favourites in Berawa, and I can’t wait to go back.
Signature dishes: Wood Fired Octopus, Poached Barramundi, Pineapple Granita
Local tip: Try the ‘chef’s selection’ menu for a real taste of Ghost’s standout dishes.
Good to know: The venue stays open until midnight, so it’s a great option for late-night dining in Berawa.

7. Ulekan Bali
A modern Indonesian restaurant with elevated local classics, house-made sambal and live performances.
I absolutely love Ulekan. Maybe it’s the fact there’s an entire sambal menu here, or maybe it’s the weekly traditional dance performances in such a beautiful, breezy setting. Or maybe, just maybe, it’s the incredible Indonesian food that’s been given a subtle yet contemporary twist.
You see, this place is from the team behind Milk & Madu, and they’ve reworked traditional Indonesian recipes with contemporary presentation, all while keeping the flavours authentic. The menu covers favourites like lawar, nasi goreng, sate lilit and pepes ikan, and of course, those incredible house-made sambal. This is my go-to when I’m introducing friends to Indonesian food, or for when I want a hit of culture and delicious local flavours.
Signature dishes: Lawar Ulekan, Sate Lilit Tejakula, Pepes Ikan
Local tip: Swing by on a Wednesday or Friday at 7.30pm and you’ll catch the traditional Cendrawasih dance.

8. Lusa By/Suka
All-day bistro and an elegant dinner spot with wood-grilled meats and cocktails.
When I first discovered Lusa By/Suka, I knew it would be a hit. This all-day restaurant in Berawa is from the same people who gave us Suka Espresso, Muda By/Suka and Nusa By/Suka. And just like its sister venues, this one ticks all the boxes. Think good vibes, incredible flavours, and a killer menu.
They of course do brunch well, but I say, swing by in the evenings when it transforms into an elegant bistro. The wood-grilled prawns are the absolute standout, slathered in saffron butter. The crispy pork belly is also worth shouting about, as is the Black Angus Picanha, drizzled in a red wine jus. And don’t even get me started on the cocktails and desserts…
Signature dishes: Saffron Grilled King Prawns, Crispy Pork Belly, Grilled Black Angus Picanha
Local tip: It’s an all-day restaurant, but visit in the evening if you want the wood-grill menu.
Good to know: Lusa is part of the Suka group, so the style and menu follow a similar approach to its sister venues.

Share-style Middle Eastern restaurant serving Levantine flavours, mezze plates and spice-led cocktails.
An awesome little eatery serving Middle Eastern cuisine, Sababa is all about generous sharing plates and bold Middle Eastern flavours. This cosy Berawa favourite specialises in Levantine cuisine, with mezze, grilled meats and classic regional dishes designed for the table.
Dished up in warm and cosy East Mediterranean interiors, you’ll get to graze on the region’s famous spices, packed nicely into some delicious and authentic dishes. Think classic kefta, falafels and shakshuka, to Cala ganoush (grilled calamari on creamy baba ganoush) and Levantine grilled meats.
And since sharing is the name of the game here, each dish is served family-style (or on grazing mezze plates), best paired with the list of yummy desserts and cocktails, all given a Middle Eastern twist. It’s the perfect pick for a romantic date night, or a cocktail-fuelled feast with friends.
Signature dishes: Lamb Kefta, Falafel Lavosh Rolls, Levantine Grilled Meat

A popular sushi bar known for its still-warm hand rolls and casual Japanese dining.
When it comes to sushi, TYGR is keeps things simple and does them well: fresh seafood, still-warm hand rolls and fast, casual dining. Sit at the counter to watch the chefs prepare each roll to order – they recommend eating the hand rolls immediately (within 30 seconds!) so the rice is warm and the nori stays crisp.
The menu ranges from classic salmon and tuna rolls to more playful creations like the Krispy Tygr with spicy tuna and truffle ponzu, plus vegetarian options like the jackfruit katsu roll. It’s quick, reliable and ideal for an easy dinner or post-drink bite.

11. Jade by Todd English
Upscale fusion restaurant blending Silk Road flavours with refined techniques and luxe interiors.
I didn’t quite know what to expect when I first walked into Jade by Todd English. I knew that this restaurant has been brought to Bali by the celebrated chef himself, but I wasn’t quite prepared to walk into such a gorgeously plush restaurant, with a dazzling bar, towering ceilings and glamorous velvet seats. It’s definitely one of Berawa’s more upscale dining destinations.
The focus here is on Asian-inspired fusion cuisine influenced by the historic Silk Road. The menu spotlights classic Asian flavours with modern techniques (think miso black cod and yuzu linguine vongole) served with five-star attentive service. And the best bit is, you can dine indoors in the opulent dining room, or outside in the breathtaking, glowing courtyard.

12. Bokashi
Japanese-inspired farm-to-table cafe and tea house focused on sustainability and seasonal produce
You won’t find anything quite like Bokashi in Berawa – or in the whole of Bali, for that matter. It’s a Japanese-inspired restaurant, tea house and sustainable grocery space under one roof, with a philosophy that centres on zero waste, organic farming and seasonal ingredients sourced from local producers.
It’s best known as a daytime cafe, but I love coming here in the evening for an early dinner, to graze slowly on delish dishes like shoyu ramen, the creamy mapo tofu udon, and the tuna teriyaki roll.
The Japanese influence runs throughout the venue, from the minimalist wooden interiors and custom Kevala ceramics, to the ever-changing menu, which follows the harvest. I just love the earthy interiors as a reflection of the farmhouse-style menu, and the entire menu of single-origin teas and matcha. It’s calm, thoughtful and refreshingly different from any other dinner spot in Berawa.
Signature dishes:Shoyu Ramen, Mapo Tofu Udon, Tuna Teriyaki Roll.
Local tip: Come here for a quiet dinner, where you can find your own corner and escape Canggu’s buzz.
Good to know: In the daytime, this is one of Berawa’s most popular cafes.

It’s creative without being complicated, and the share-style plates make it easy to try a bit of everything.
