Ask me where to eat in Bali and I’ll never give you a short answer. The island’s food scene is going bananas right now, especially in the tourism hotspots of Canggu, Uluwatu, Ubud and Seminyak. In just 2026 alone, we’ve seen award-winning chefs reimagining heritage recipes, big international names moving to Bali, and local neighbourhood spots plating up food to rival the fine diners.<\/p>\n
So, that’s where this guide comes in. Below, you’ll find the 26 restaurants I rate as the best in Bali right now, organised by occasion, so you can pick the perfect spot for a group dinner, date night, or a full fine dining blow-out. This list has everything from beachfront restaurants in Canggu, clifftop views in Uluwatu, to old favourites in Seminyak, plus all the new names you simply have to try.<\/p>\n

I’m Louise, and I’ve lived in Bali for over 14 years. When I set out to compile this list of the best restaurants in Bali, I didn\u2019t want to just recycle what everyone else says. So, I hit the road, sat at every table, met the chefs, and became very good friends with the sommeliers (FYI: that’s how you score a bigger pour). This list is built from real forkfuls, countless tasting menus, and my own insider tips. I\u2019ve sifted through Bali\u2019s best new restaurants<\/a>, old classics still worth your time, and a few fine dining icons too. These are Bali’s best restaurants in 2026 you won\u2019t want to miss. And yes, I send my own friends and family to these Bali restaurants too.<\/p>\n Bali\u2019s best restaurants at a glance:<\/strong><\/p>\n Wondering where to eat near you?
