Top 10 Restaurants For Delicious Food In Sanur
Blossom Steakhouse
There’s nothing quite like a good steak and Blossom is one of the best steakhouses in Bali! It’s a beautiful spot in very high-end surroundings.
It’s a place that ensures that everyone feels welcome while emphasising effortless elegance.
On our last visit, we found that every steak was cooked exactly as ordered and the overall service was impeccable. Chef Brenton’s 30-day dry-aged tomahawk was a real highlight of our visit.
We were also very impressed with the wine list. And now…. we can’t wait to go back again. Heartily recommended.

Costa by Monsta
This beachside restaurant may have the best fusion Mediterranean cuisine on the island. You can dine on the sand and enjoy live music every night as you feast at Costa.
We recommend getting there before sunset and unwinding with some of their excellent drinks menu as the sky changes colour and sets the scene for a memorable evening.
Their fresh seafood is excellent, the pasta is delicious and we were very impressed by the steaks which were perfectly cooked.
This is an ideal spot for dining with friends, enjoy a romantic date or just chilling by the ocean.

Jalapeno
This is a super spicy Tex Mex that makes amazing tacos (and yes, they have a Taco Tuesday).
We like that they use locally sourced ingredients to create things like a Baja Fish Taco, which really gives their food a Balinese twist.
And if you’re done eating, make sure to take advantage of the margaritas. They make a mean margarita, too.

CORK Bistro Bali & Wine Bar
CORK is one of the best restaurants in Sanur, and if you like your fine dining experience laced with a touch of casual, this is where you go.
Their Balinese rijsttafel is a perfect example of how they take European classics and add a local twist to them.
Oh, and not only do they have an excellent wine list, but they are also a wine store, and you can buy bottles to take home with you after your meal!

Sala Bistro & Coffee
Sala is the refined coffee shop experience that you only know you’re missing in your life once you find it at Sala.
It’s an amazing place to have brunch, and it’s a very popular spot for Australians, in particular, who love the fresh local produce on display.
During the day, their Seniman Coffee is considered to be a very fine cup of coffee, indeed, but we need to learn about that – we prefer to arrive at sunset and sit on the rooftop sipping wine.

Pier Eight
This Sanur Beach restaurant is very family-friendly during the day, and even the fussiest of kids will enjoy a family meal here.
But at night, they transform into one of the coolest and most chic bars on the island.
We like to grab a cocktail or two as we contemplate whether to have the rendang curry or the local soto. They also do some surprisingly authentic Italian pizzas and pasta dishes.

Soul On The Beach
This is on Sindhu Beach, and it’s the more family-focused cousin of Shotgun Social (which is also on our list).
There’s plenty of space for young children to play, but always within eyeball distance of the dining area.
They specialize in new and unique creations food-wise each day, and it’s a lot of fun to try everything they have to offer.

Naughty Nuri’s Sanur
The crispy pork knuckle sealed the deal for us with Naughty Nuri’s, but it could as easily have been their signature ribs.
They have a cocktail drinking challenge to go alongside their extensive menu of international dishes, and if you can down four of their biggest cocktails in a single trip, they put your name on the wall!
Just be warned: if you want your taste buds to experience the pork, you may want to order it a day in advance! Yes, it’s that popular.

Pescado Bali
The best Mediterranean cuisine in and around Sanur Beach is found at Pescado.
The objective here is to create an environment where everyone delights in sharing the awesome food on offer.
They have jugs of sangria on hand to help you get in the mood, too.
The big win is their paella, which may be the best paella in Bali. Yum.

Massimo
If you’re thinking “Italian food” for a romantic dinner on the island, then Massimo is the original Italian eatery in Sanur, and its longevity is down to the awesome food.
Take your camera because the dishes are very Instagrammable, and their gelato counter is one of the most social-media-friendly views that you’re going to get in Bali.
