Dining Guide

Best Restaurants in Umalas.

Where to eat in Bali's quiet west-side neighbourhood.

Umalas is one of Bali's calmer dining neighbourhoods, tucked between Seminyak and Canggu. For fire-cooked food in a garden setting, Uma Garden sits at its centre - steaks and share plates over an open flame, candlelit tables, and live music twice a week. Open daily, noon to midnight.

What makes Umalas good for dinner.

Umalas trades the crowds of Seminyak for quiet lanes, rice-field edges and a slower pace. It is a short ride from the beach clubs but feels a world away, which is why it has become a favourite for a relaxed dinner.

Uma Garden fits that mood: an open-air garden built around fire, a few minutes from the main Umalas strip.

What to eat at Uma Garden.

Almost everything is cooked over wood and charcoal - dry-aged and wagyu steaks, grilled scallops, house-made pasta and bread, finished with a bar built around Bali. See the full menu or read our story.
