Bacaro Pizza/Irma by Bacaro

This is one of the best straight pizza restaurants in Bali and the dough here is as authentically Italian as you can find on the island.

We recommend the calzone or the burrata pizza which is great. Then to follow it up with the house lava chocolate cake which is decadent and delicious.

This place is also open late into the night so if you’re seeking dinner at 2 a.m. you might try Bacaro.

Zai Cafe

Zai Cafe is famous for its breakfasts, much to the frustrations of the owners of this one of our best restaurants in Canggu, Bali who have added “breakfast and dinner” to the title of the place, to remind people they also do dinners.

It’s a very romantic spot where you can enjoy a lovely vibe as you work your way through a sophisticated and intelligent menu.

The tagliatelle tuna was a real highlight of our visit to Zai Cafe.

The chermoula-crusted chicken with burnt lemon at Shelter is one of the most famous signature dishes in Canggu, Bali.

This place is all about the authentic tastes of the Middle East and the meals are striking, bold and elegant all at the same time.

We also love the setting here which is very upmarket and attractive. It’s the sort of place that you just love to dine at.

Roti Canai

This is one of our favourite Indonesian restaurants in Canggu and it delivers simple local dishes in a very rapid fashion.

It’s not fast food, but it could certainly give McD’s a run for its money when it comes to the time between your order and delivery to your table.

The satay sampler is fantastic and one of our favourites, we were also very happy with the croque madame which isn’t Indonesian but is tasty.

Santorini Greek Restaurant

There aren’t very many Greek restaurants in Bali at all, so we’re glad that one of the best restaurants in Canggu is Santorini.

It’s a family-run affair with an emphasis on top-quality Greek dishes and first-rate service and they never disappoint.

You should know that this leads to Santorini being one of the most popular places in the area and it’s often full – book ahead or arrive early to enjoy the food without a long wait.

La Terraza Rooftop Bar

If you’re looking for a date night spot with a difference then this rooftop bar is a great choice to impress your honey.

They have live music and a great tapas menu which includes a basic vegan menu and excellent service.

The wine list is pretty good and they can whistle up a fine array of cocktails to go with your food too.

However, this place is a little off the beaten path and the outdoor seating area here can occasionally feel a touch empty.

Beachgarden – Organic Kitchen

As you might expect from the “organic kitchen” in the name, this restaurant is all about smoothie bowls, poached eggs and healthy eating.

They also do some excellent Balinese food and their Nasi Goreng is one of the best we’ve ever tasted.

Mind you, at night, the dinner here is best remembered for the traditional Balinese dance displays as much as it is for the excellent food and drink.

If you’re in the mood for a pizza in an interesting arty setting then you could opt for dinner at Banger Place.

The Dragon Paradise house cocktail is an excellent choice of drink to accompany your thin, crispy crusted pizza which is cooked by a real Italian chef.

After you’ve enjoyed a tasty pizza, we can also recommend the tiramisu which is one of the best we’ve had in Bali.

The staff are amazingly attentive and you can be certain of great service whether or not you bring your laptop with you.

We can really recommend the half-grilled chicken which is so tender and moist that we could eat a whole one.

Naked Bun

Hamburgers are always a great dinner option and some of the finest hamburgers in Canggu, Bali can be found at Naked Bun.

The delicately spiced juicy beef in these burgers really elevates these humble burgers to the next level.

We love their fries (both the potato and sweet potato variants) and we’d be happy to eat burgers here any day of the week.

This fresh Mexican grill is actually a branch of a Texas-based Tex-Mex chain and they do all the traditional Mexican favourites like tacos, burritos and nachos.

It’s just a minute’s walk from Echo Beach and it’s one of the best restaurants in the area around that popular surfing destination.

We’d be happy to recommend their falafel bowl which is generous and filling as well as super tasty.

Shichirin Canggu, Japanese Teppanyaki Berawa by Wonderspace

Yes, this is another Wonderspace restaurant and it’s one of the most highly regarded Japanese restaurants in Canggu, Bali.

Make sure to tip off the staff before you visit if you’re celebrating a special occasion as they will ensure you have a very special time of things.

We’d recommend that when you have the option to cook the food or let the chef do it, that you let the chef handle things, the hot stones aren’t really hot enough for cooking at the table.

Not only will they wine and dine you, but they will even take a photograph or two of you to ensure you take your memories home with you.

This Asian-fusion restaurant is a great place for a light dinner with a real emphasis on local tastes taken to the next level.

We love their tuna tartare which is one of the boldest and freshest tartares that we’ve ever had the pleasure to taste.

You should also keep some room for dessert as their sweets are so good that you will wish you could eat more of them!

The staff here are very welcoming and helpful and will be pleased to offer tips on the best dishes and ensure that you get served quickly.

It’s Balinese owned and run, but you’d be hard-pushed to tell, it’s one of the most authentic Italian places we’ve found in Bali.

We love the aesthetic in Bottega Italiana which is all about Italian chic a short walk from the beach in Bali.

The pasta is handmade in the restaurant and you can watch them prepare it if you’re there at the right time of day.

Every ingredient is brimming with freshness and we love their coffee which is the best in this part of Canggu.

This Vietnamese restaurant is absolutely fabulous and if you’re looking for some truly authentic pho in Canggu, you will be very happy here.

They also have a range of vegetarian options and the tofu banh-mi is amazingly soft and tasty, it’s almost like being transported to Hoi An or Da Nang when you take a bite.

Washed down with a mango smoothie, this is how Vietnamese food should be and best of all, it’s not at all expensive.

Note: As we go to press this restaurant is temporarily closed and thus, you should contact them before trying to visit to ensure that they have reopened their doors.

This is part of the Deus Ex Machina group and there’s a ton of other stuff going on around the cafe here.

However, that can’t take away from the fact that the food here is excellent and truly delicious.

The only thing that lets Deus Cafe down at the moment is there’s no vegan options on the menu.

This Southeast Asian fusion restaurant is tucked away down an alley and it doesn’t always get the attention from the public that it deserves.

If you do decide to track it down, you’ll be met with first-rate service and delicious food that really makes the most of local ingredients.

Try “The Mermaid” if you love fresh fish as it’s just got so much taste! “The Myth” has a very spicy edge if you’re feeling bold too.

Milk + Madu (From The Good Food Brotherhood)

Milk & Madu is a project from the locally renowned Good Food Brotherhood and they have several locations around town including near Echo Beach, Berawa Beach and Batu Bolong Beach.

Wherever you go, you’re in for a great experience and the emphasis is on a family-style place where you and your children can enjoy tasty fare from around the world.

We like the creamy poached eggs on their all-day breakfasts but everything here is prepared in-house and will delight your taste buds.

Milano is very close to the world-famous FINNS Beach Club and it’s often an option for diners who can’t get a seat in the restaurants inside the beach club.

Having said that, it’s a very good Italian that can whip up some natural wood-fired pizzas at a moment’s notice.

They can also cater for large groups at Milano and if you need somewhere at the last minute to handle 20+ people, you may find that they have the capacity to help you out.

This hidden gem is all about plant-based eating and there’s no dry-aged tune or grilled octopus on the menu here.

However, it’s one of the most popular cafes in the area and that’s because they know exactly how to turn plants into tasty meals.

From brunch staples to exciting dinner options, I am Vegan Babe is a great spot for everything from a quick bite to a long, luxurious meal.

Shady Shack

If you love to dine in rich surroundings of beautiful green plant life, then Shady Shack might be your perfect dinner spot.

There’s an emphasis on plant-based healthy eating here and their eggplant toast is to die for.

We’re also big fans of their vegan burger which is big, juicy and packs in a ton of flavour – it just goes to show that you do not need top-quality meats on a charcoal grill to create a taste sensation.

As you might expect this is Wonderspace’s Thai food offering and it’s every bit as good as their other two restaurants on this list.

There’s a free cocktail when you enjoy dinner here and that means you can get fired into the Thai food with a little extra gleeful abandon.

We really loved their Thai oysters which had so much flavour and were a real testament to the freshness of the ingredients.

The wait staff are particularly helpful and can help to recommend things from the menu if you’re stuck on what to choose.

The boho interior design looks great in your Instagram feed too.

Skool Kitchen is a great place for an upmarket open-flame kitchen experience in Canggu, Bali.

We love their grilled chicken skin skewers which are an absolutely taste sensation and the Iberico pork jowl with kale is superlatively good too.

If you’re in the mood for some ambitious eating then the Wagyu Tomahawk is one of the finest premium meats available on the island.

Overall, this is a great spot for a date night or intimate dinner with friends. You’re sure to leave full and happy.

Two Moods is a beautiful restaurant that serves delicious cuisine at reasonable prices.

However, we should note that while this place can introduce you to some excellent Eastern European favourites, the portions are a bit smaller than we’d like.

Make sure to try the Syrniki, it’s the most incredible taste sensation and, by far, the most authentic we’ve ever had in Indonesia.

Be warned though, that they only support a fairly eclectic range of payment methods and some local favourites like QR-codes are not accepted.

The meat pancakes are our top pick of the menu items here but it’s all pretty decent, if unspectacular fare.

They are able to provide gluten-free versions of most dishes which is super handy if you have a celiac sufferer in your party. (It’s prepared completely separately from the other dishes – no chance of contamination at all).

The quesadillas and tacos are every bit as good as you’d expect them to be at this price point too.

However, it can get very popular at certain times of day and there’s no doubt that when it’s super busy, the service can suffer – so try to go early in the evening if you can.

We visit the Bali Coffee Club when we’re looking to have a team dinner out of work and we don’t want to spend a fortune.

We love the fact that they have a big vegan and vegetarian menu in addition to something that will keep the carnivores happy.

Cantina Classe, Italian Restaurant Canggu by Wonderspace

Wonderspace is home to several excellent restaurants and it’s a major part of the restaurant scene here in Canggu.

Their Italian offering is Cantina Classe and it’s all about bringing you the flavours of Italy with homemade gelato, pasta and pizza.

Our only complaint about Cantina Classe is that it’s a bit expensive for what it is, but this hidden gem rarely disappoints with the quality of its food.

The Common Bali

This Mexican-themed cafe is all about the tequila and their margaritas are usually on such a good deal that it’s worth visiting just to sample them.

The portions of food here are incredibly generous and it’s unknown for anyone to leave The Common feeling hungry.

It’s also quite reasonably priced for this area of Canggu and if you’re on a budget in the Batu Bolong area, The Common is a good place to stop for a feed.

This beachside coworking space has a pool that you can use to take a dip in between courses if you want.

The menu is reasonably varied and the duck with buttered mashed potatoes was a real highlight of our visit here.

It’s a very kid-friendly vibe and if you bring your little ones, they’re sure to make some friends among the other diner’s children.

One really nice touch here is that everyone gets a free glass of iced water before they order.

Sedasa Cafe

This is a pleasant spot for a bit of Indonesian dinner and while it is a bit pricier than the average warung, the presentation and flavours make up for it.

We love that everything here is wrapped in leaves rather than plastic or paper too.

Menya Kenji

This is a superb Japanese restaurant and their signature dumplings are worth a trip to Menya Kenji by themselves.

The only downside about this place is the lighting is a bit too subtle and it can be hard to read the menu, but if you make the effort, you will be rewarded with delicious food.

Laci Restaurant

Laci is a top-notch Indonesian restaurant that is all about the flawless execution of local classics.

However, on our visit, while we did enjoy the food, we had to note that the portions were a little on the small side.

Neighbourhood Food

This is a pleasant cafe that aims to offer health food options for reasonable prices.

You’re welcome to hold a working dinner here and they provide plug points for laptops and other equipment.

St. Tropez

ST TROPEZ GALLERY 2

We saved one of the best to last. St. Tropez has just reopened and you can enjoy some of the best food on the island at this part of FINNS VIP Beach Club.

It’s the best party restaurant in town and regularly tops the TripAdvisor standings for Canggu.

If you want to wine and dine in style, you can’t beat St. Tropez.
