New to Mediterranean food? Start here!<\/h3>\n
Mediterranean food in Bali hits different when the seafood comes straight from local waters and the herbs are picked the same morning. If it’s your first time, these are the dishes worth trying before anything else:<\/p>\n
- \n
- Grilled or wood-fired seafood<\/strong> – Bali’s waters mean the fish and prawns here are exceptional, and Mediterranean cooking knows exactly what to do with them. A simple grilled fish with olive oil, lemon and herbs is always <\/em>the move.<\/li>\n
- Mezze platter<\/strong> – The best introduction to the cuisine. Hummus, labneh, flatbread, olives. Order one and share it while you figure out the rest of the menu.<\/li>\n
- Slow-cooked meat<\/strong> – Nobody does tender meat quite like a Mediterranean kitchen. You really can’t go wrong with their lamb, duck confit, or beef cheek.<\/li>\n
- A glass of something crisp<\/strong> – Aperol Spritz, natural white wine or a citrusy cocktail. Mediterranean food was made to be eaten slowly with a drink in hand.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

Best Mediterranean Restaurants in Bali<\/h2>\n
1. Luma Bali \u2013 Canggu<\/h3>\n
Two award-winning chefs, one wood-fired oven, and a menu that changes with the island’s seasons.<\/strong><\/p>\n
![\"Wood-fired](\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAAAAACH5BAEKAAEALAAAAAABAAEAAAICTAEAOw==\")
For a special night out, book a table at Luma for chef-driven European food, cooked in a wood-fire oven. (Photo by Honeycombers)<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n When I want to impress my mates, I take them for dinner at Luma<\/strong><\/a>. The interiors alone are worth the visit (think giant arched walkways, a low-lit terrace and cosy booth seating). This gorgeous Canggu restaurant is the lovechild of two award-winning chefs, making it the perfect spot for a special occasion.<\/p>\n
The food itself is pulled straight from the open wood fire oven, and everything on the menu is kissed by fire. And the best bit is, the menu changes with the seasons to match the availability of local produce, so there’s always something new to try. The cocktails aren’t to be missed either (they sling local twists on the classics), and the wine list is one of the best I’ve seen in Bali.<\/p>\n
Recommended dishes: <\/strong>Herb-crusted Barramundi, Lobster Tagliatelle, Duck Confit.
\nPrice Range: <\/strong>Mains start from IDR 140,000++

2. Portofino \u2013 Ubud<\/h3>\n
Stylish Mediterranean restaurant in the middle of Ubud serving Italian Riviera pasta and Pinot Grigio.<\/strong><\/p>\n
Head to Portofino for pasta and wine straight from the Italian Riviera<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n Sometimes, I just want great pasta and a nice wine in a simple setting. And that’s when I head to Portofino<\/strong><\/a>. This stylish Mediterranean restaurant is located right in the heart of Ubud (you can walk to it from the Monkey Forest in 5 minutes), which makes it great for people-watching. Inside, it feels like it was plucked straight from the Italian Riviera.<\/p>\n
I usually start with the whipped ricotta or arancini, before moving on to the aglio olio with angel hair pasta (simple, but perfect) and a crisp glass of Pinot Grigio. If (like me) you\u2019re into long lunches that stretch into dinner, Portofino is your place.<\/p>\n
Recommended dishes: <\/strong>Whipped Ricotta, Arancini, Aglio Olio.
\nPrice Range: <\/strong>Mains start from IDR 80,000++

3. Ina R\u00e9 \u2013 Canggu<\/h3>\n
Mediterranean restaurant with nods to Latin America inside Canggu’s chicest lifestyle village.<\/strong><\/p>\n
Mediterranean flavours meet Latin flair at Ina R\u00e9 in Canggu<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n Though this brand is world-famous, Ina R\u00e9<\/a><\/strong> had me at \u201cseafood paella and natural wine”. It’s tucked inside Canggu\u2019s ultra-chic Desa Kitsun\u00e9, so you’ll want to dress up for this one. As for the food, Mediterranean flavours are given a Latin edge, nodding to the rich flavours of Latin street food.<\/p>\n
Chef Cristian Encina (of Salvaje fame) helms the kitchen, and since every dish is expertly presented, his expertise really shows. The beef tartare is a must, as is the Milanese-style crispy eggplant, and the roasted chicken with a green olive sauce. And the wine cave? Let\u2019s just say, I didn\u2019t leave thirsty…<\/p>\n
Recommended dishes: <\/strong>Stockyard Tenderloin Beef Tartare, Ina R\u00e9 Seafood Paella, Roasted Chicken Breast.
\nPrice Range: <\/strong>Mains start from IDR 120,000++
\nAddress:<\/strong> Desa Kitsun\u00e9, Jl Munduk Catu No. 9, Canggu<\/a>

4. KALA \u2013 Uluwatu<\/h3>\n
Uluwatu’s most-loved Greek grill, with a Michelin-trained chef and the best baklava cheesecake in the Bukit.<\/strong><\/p>\n
For a taste of Greek flavours and rustic neighbourhood vibes, head to KALA in Uluwatu. (Photo by Honeycombers)<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n KALA<\/strong><\/a> is almost always packed to the rafters with Uluwatu’s finest. It’s become famous for its modern Greek food, speakeasy-grade cocktails and stylish vibes. The fact that the entire neighbourhood likes to dine here really adds to its warmth, helped along by the earthy interiors and big bowls of lemons on every table.<\/p>\n
I recommend starting with a round of oven-fresh flatbreads to scoop up the mezze dips. There’s hummus, harissa and muhammara to name a few. Then, fill your table with all the different bites to share: spanakopita, grilled octopus and local sardines. The last time I visited we were just a table of two, so instead of sharing lots of small plates, we went for a pasta dish each (I had the paccheri pumpkin pasta) with a green salad and charred broccoli on the side. It didn’t disappoint.<\/p>\n
Recommended dishes: <\/strong>Meze, Spanakopita, Paccheri Pumpkin Pasta.
\nPrice Range: <\/strong>Mains start from IDR 130,000++

5. Pasir \u2013 Ubud<\/h3>\n
Beach vibes, sandy interiors and Kusamba sea salt, dropped right into the heart of Ubud.<\/strong><\/p>\n
Pasir brings Bali’s beach vibes to Ubud, topped off with coastal Mediterranean cuisine<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n I\u2019ll admit, I wasn\u2019t expecting to feel coastal and beachy on the jungle-hugged streets of Monkey Forest Road. But then I walked into Pasir<\/strong><\/a>, and suddenly I was craving oysters and an Aperol Spritz. The restaurant is drenched in sunlight with sandy tones and cute potted palms. So much so, I was sure I felt a sea breeze…<\/p>\n
I kicked things off with the octopus carpaccio and snapper crudo (melty, citrusy, and disappeared in seconds), then moved on to the beef cheek, which is slow-cooked for 48 hours. The hanging Tomahawk is also a must-try. I had no intention of ordering a drink at lunch, until I noticed that every dish has a recommended cocktail pairing. So of course, I had to give them a try. But the real kicker here is the local ingredients. The seafood is from Bali\u2019s own shores, all the sea salt is from Kusamba, and the veggies are from nearby plantations in Ubud. I’ll raise another glass to that…<\/p>\n
Recommended dishes: <\/strong>Octopus Carpaccio, Snapper Crudo, Hanging Tomahawk.
\nPrice Range: <\/strong>Mains start from IDR 85,000++
\nAddress:<\/strong> Jl Monkey Forest, Ubud<\/a>
\nWhatsApp:<\/strong> +62 811 2833 838

6. Peyia \u2013 Uluwatu<\/h3>\n
Ungasan’s gorgeous restaurant with zero seed oils, warm flatbread and a build-your-own khubz.<\/strong><\/p>\n
Peyia is completely seed-oil-free, with beautifully presented Mediterranean food made for sharing<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n I’ll be honest: I popped into Peyia<\/strong><\/a> purely because of its gorgeous frontage. It’s cool and stylish \u2013 a vast contrast from the dusty streets of Ungasan. But after trying the food, I was hooked. The hummus was smooth and sprinkled with pomegranate, and the flatbread is served warm and fluffy, just as it should be. I love the interiors too: open-air and breezy with warm terracotta tones (it’s also dog-friendly, FYI!).<\/p>\n
But what sets this place apart is its commitment to clean cooking. There are no seed oils, just fresh, flavour-packed dishes perfect for sharing. I built my own khubz wrap (which is like a Shawarma-style flatbread) and filled it with halloumi, kisir, pickled jalape\u00f1os and garlic mayo. It was so good, and surprisingly affordable too. I\u2019m already planning a return visit for the dinner menu, which gets a little more sultry come nightfall.<\/p>\n
Recommended dishes: <\/strong>Make-your-own Khubz, Homemade Halloumi, Pomegranate Cheesecake.
\nPrice Range: <\/strong>Mains start from IDR 95,000++
\nAddress:<\/strong> Jl Toya Ning II, Ungasan<\/a>
\nWhatsApp:<\/strong> +62 853 3352 7152
\nOpening Hours:<\/strong> Daily 11.30am – 11pm<\/p>\nSee Peyia’s Menu<\/a> Book Peyia Here<\/a><\/p>\n
7. Di Mare \u2013 Uluwatu<\/h3>\n
Top 50 Restaurants in Asia serving grilled seafood and cliffside views above the Indian Ocean.<\/strong><\/p>\n
For a special occasion, I love dining atop the clifftops of Uluwatu at Di Mare<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n Di Mare<\/strong><\/a> at Karma Kandara is one of those special occasion restaurants that simply take your breath away. The view alone is a showstopper, but the entire experience is what makes it so special. The restaurant is perched high up on the cliffs of Uluwatu, and the tables are all dressed in white linens.<\/p>\n
I could easily sit here all day, soaking in the sea views and sipping my way through the list of fine wines. But it does get a little hot during the day (even though it’s shaded and cooled by fans). So I recommend visiting at sunset, then stick around for dinner. The seafood is sublime, and the meats are grilled to absolute perfection.<\/p>\n
Recommended dishes: <\/strong>Tuna Crudo, Sweet Corn Risotto, Chocolate Fondant.
\nPrice Range: <\/strong>Mains start from IDR 265,000++
\nAddress:<\/strong> Jl Villa Kandara, Br. Wijaya Kusuma, Ungasan<\/a>
\nWhatsApp:<\/strong> +62 811 3810 7130
\nOpening Hours:<\/strong> Daily 7am – 10.30pm<\/p>\nSee di Mare’s Menu<\/a>\u00a0 Book di Mare Here<\/a><\/p>\n
8. Zali \u2013 Canggu & Uluwatu<\/h3>\n
Lebanese soul food passed down through generations with authentic Beirut recipes.<\/strong><\/p>\n
After speaking to the chefs, I soon understood why Zali feels so homely!<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n There\u2019s a reason I keep going back to Zali<\/strong><\/a> \u2014 everything about it feels so homely. I spoke to the chefs, and the reason is, the menu is actually inspired by the founder\u2019s Lebanese grandmother. No wonder it feels so soulful. All of the Beirut-style recipes are home-grown, then passed down through generations and given a modernised twist.<\/p>\n
I always go mezze-style, loading up on creamy labneh, spiced falafel, grilled halloumi, and a roasted cauliflower saj that never disappoints. And the best bit is, Zali is now in Canggu and Uluwatu. The Canggu location is bright, casual and perfect for people-watching, while the Uluwatu venue feels a bit warmer and high-end, which makes it great for a night out with friends.<\/p>\n
Recommended dishes: <\/strong>Hummus Cauli Saj, Roasted Chicken Sumac “Musakhan”, Tabbouleh.
\nPrice Range: <\/strong>Mains start from IDR 70,000++
\nAddress:<\/strong> Jl Pantai Pererenan No. 152, Pererenan<\/a> & Jl Pantai Labuan Sait, Suluban, Pecatu<\/a>
\nWhatsApp:<\/strong> +62 812 3900 3100 (Canggu) & +62 877 7813 7273 (Uluwatu)

9. Shelter \u2013 Canggu<\/h3>\n
Mediterranean-Middle Eastern fusion in a romantic garden setting.<\/strong><\/p>\n
Wood-firing is what Shelter do best, so you\u2019ll want to try their specialties like the wood-roasted scallops. (Photo by Honeycombers)<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n Shelter<\/strong><\/a> is where I’d take someone for a proper dinner date in Pererenan, as the place is gorgeous and the food is nothing short of extraordinary. Start with the flatbread – hot from the oven, pillowy and made for scooping up the whipped chickpeas and smoky babaghanoush. Just don’t fill up before the mains arrive, the BBQ octopus and grilled lamb kofte are perfectly spiced and impossibly tender.<\/p>\n
But there’s one dessert that seals it for me every time, and that’s the wood-roasted chocolate. It comes as a rich, smoky chocolate base crowned with salted caramel gelato and finished with sumac honeycomb crumble scattered over the top. I’d Gojek all the way to Pererenan just to eat it.<\/p>\n
Recommended dishes: <\/strong>Smoked Baba, Lamb Kofte, Wood-Roasted Salmon, Wood-Roasted Chocolate.
\nPrice Range: <\/strong>Mains start from IDR 165,000++
\nAddress:<\/strong> Jl Pantai Pererenan No. 133, Pererenan.<\/a>

10. Estia \u2013 Seminyak<\/h3>\n
A warm Greek-Mediterranean grill serving smoky wood-fired dishes, shared plates and comforting classics.<\/strong><\/p>\n
This restaurant focuses on wood-grill and oven dishes, so expect lots of smoky, charred flavours throughout the menu.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n Estia<\/strong><\/a> is named after the Greek goddess of hearth and home, and it’s reflected in the way the place is built. Big communal tables, shared plates and that wood-smoked aroma that hits you before you’ve even sat down. If you love bold, smoky flavours, start with the skewers, either the lamb with mint yoghurt or the grass-fed beef with horseradish labneh. Both come straight off the grill and disappear fast.<\/p>\n
If you’re hungry (and you should be), the pastitsio is a must. Think of it as Greece’s answer to lasagna: layers of tubular pasta, slow-cooked meat and a thick, spiced b\u00e9chamel on top, baked until it’s just set and deeply comforting. It’s best to come with a group, order everything and go full sharing style.<\/p>\n
Recommended dishes: <\/strong>Grass-fed Beef Skewers, Prawn Saganaki, Pastitsio Beef Cheek
\nPrice Range: <\/strong>Mains start from IDR 100,000++
\nAddress:<\/strong> Jl. Kayu Cendana No.7, Seminyak.<\/a>
\nWhatsApp:<\/strong> +62 811 3831 0366

11. Chora \u2013 Ubud<\/h3>\n
A rustic Ubud kitchen that celebrates nature and Mediterranean culture with locally caught seafood and freshly harvested greens.<\/strong><\/p>\n
Local, fresh ingredients are at the heart of Chora’s menu<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n Chora Ubud<\/a><\/strong> is one of those restaurants that makes you feel warm and fuzzy the moment you step in. It\u2019s not flashy or loud \u2014 it\u2019s rustic, soulful, and just beautifully decorated. And what I love the most is, you can tell it not only honours the architecture and cuisine of Mykonos, it also takes into consideration Balinese culture too.<\/p>\n
As for the food, it’s all about life’s simple pleasures. Juicy prawns are cooked in a rich tomato sauce. Tender octopus is served on a bed of creamy hummus. And just-harvested veggies are tossed into crunchy salads and sides. I don’t come here for an over-the-top lunch or fancy dinner date. I come here for honest food that feels like home.<\/p>\n
Recommended dishes: <\/strong>Prawns Saganaki, Salmon Steak, Chora Baklava.
