Sanur is my home neighbourhood, and I love living (and eating!) here. It’s where you can cycle to dinner along the beachfront path, turn up in flip-flops, and eat local food without the expensive price-tag. The restaurants here are casual and family-friendly, with food from all over the world: Balinese warungs<\/em> and night markets, to Mediterranean and Asian comfort food on the beach.<\/p>\n

A lot has changed since I first arrived in 2006. There are far more places to eat, but what hasn\u2019t changed is the mood. Sanur is still laid-back and lovely, without any stiff, white-tablecloth kind of dining.<\/p>\n

So, if you ask me where to eat in Sanur, I\u2019ll answer with a question: what are you in the mood for? There’s something for everyone, so below are the 14 Sanur dinner restaurants I keep going back to, grouped by what you\u2019re after: beachfront views, new openings, something romantic for date night, or a casual family dinner with live music.<\/p>\n

Why trust this guide<\/h3>\n

Hi, I’m Vici! I first moved to Bali in 2006, and I’ve lived in Sanur since 2021. Every restaurant on this list I’ve personally tried, tested and gone back to, sticking to the east side of the neighbourhood around the beachfront and Jalan Danau Tamblingan, since that’s where most visitors are based. I regularly keep this list updated, so it includes all of the best new restaurants in town, plus Sanur’s old favourites.<\/p>\n

If there’s somewhere on the west side of the bypass you want to know about, or you think I’ve got something wrong, email me directly at vici@thehoneycombers.com<\/a>.<\/p>\n
