Dining Guide

Date Night near Seminyak.

Relaxed, candlelit, built to linger.

For a date night near Seminyak, Uma Garden is a candlelit garden restaurant in Umalas, about five minutes away. It is relaxed rather than formal: fire-cooked share plates, cocktails built around Bali, and live jazz on Tuesdays and blues on Thursdays, all in an open garden. Open daily, noon to midnight.

The vibe.

Uma Garden is easy to spend an evening in. Long communal tables, candlelight and an open fire give it a warm, social feel - dressy enough for a real date, relaxed enough that you are not on edge.

It sits away from the busiest streets, so it feels like a small escape from the Seminyak crowds.

Plan the night.

Share a few plates rather than ordering rigidly - scallops, provolone, pasta and a steak over charcoal work well for two, with a cocktail to open and wine to follow. Time it around the music if you can: jazz on Tuesday, blues on Thursday.

Getting here.
