In Bali, dining is more than just a meal — it’s a setting, a story, a mood. It’s the sunset hitting your plate just right, the sound of waves syncing with your conversation, or the first bite that feels like a work of art. Whether you’re looking for theatrical flair, oceanfront tradition, or mountain-edge calm, these curated spots offer dining experiences that linger longer than dessert.

Here are five memorable ways to dine across the island — from gallery-style gastronomy to volcano-view lunches.

1. Seven Paintings by Wonderspace — Ubud

Theatrical fine dining meets immersive art.

This isn’t dinner — it’s a performance. Seven Paintings is an interactive, multi-sensory dining show where each course is paired with projected art, story, and emotion. You won’t just taste the meal — you’ll feel every brushstroke. A bold, curated evening for those who crave something more than a seat and a plate.

2. Phinisi Sailor Dinner Cruise — Benoa Harbour

Romance at sea aboard a classic Indonesian schooner.

Sail into golden hour with a three-course dinner and live music aboard a traditional phinisi boat. Departing from Benoa Harbour, this cruise glides across calm waters with candlelight, cocktails, and just the right amount of breeze. The city lights meet the ocean horizon — and suddenly dinner feels like a voyage.

3. Jimbaran Seafood & Sunset Dining — Teba Café

Barefoot dining with smoky grills and salty air.

No dining experience in Bali is as iconic as seafood on the sands of Jimbaran. Teba Café delivers the charm: paper-lined tables, fresh catch grilled over coconut husk, and sunsets that get applause. Order a seafood basket, dig in with your hands, and sip a Bintang with your toes in the sand.

4. Lunch with a Volcano View — Amora, Kintamani

Crisp air, panoramic views, and food that fuels the soul.

High up in Kintamani, Amora offers panoramic views of Mount Batur and its crater lake. Come for the mountain breeze, stay for the comfort food — think Indonesian classics, hot tea, and that photo you’ll post before dessert even arrives. Quiet, scenic, and surprisingly soul-filling.

5. Afternoon Tea at Selasar Deli — The Apurva Kempinski

Elegant indulgence with a view of the Indian Ocean.

Set within The Apurva Kempinski’s grand architecture, Selasar Deli offers a refined take on afternoon tea. You’ll find Indonesian-inspired bites served on artisanal stands, delicate sweets, and brews as beautiful as the space. A slow, sweet interlude best savored with company — or with your journal open.

From mountaintop lunch to ocean-deck dinners, Bali serves up more than food — it offers a mood. Whether you dine under stars, inside stories, or beside sea spray, each setting brings its own rhythm to the table. These are just five — but the island has many more worth booking, tasting, and sharing.
