Dimpil BeachBar and Resto — Restaurant in Bali

Dimpil survives because it can — not because it’s good. With only two beachfront spots in Pemuteran, it draws people in by default. Unfortunately, the view is the only thing working in its favour.

We came here for dinner and were met with a series of red flags. The first? Watching a plate of prawns get returned from the table next to us — only to be suspiciously served to us within a minute of placing the same order. There’s no other way to put it: they recycled a dish that had already been sent back. That’s not just unprofessional — it’s unacceptable.

Our next dish, a salad, took an oddly long time to arrive. We had to follow up, and when it finally came, the main ingredient was missing. No explanation until it landed on the table. To make matters worse, the salad leaves were wilted and soggy — clearly a result of hot meat being thrown in last-minute. It felt rushed, careless, and cobbled together to make up for their delay.

Dimpil’s pricing is noticeably higher than other eateries in the area. And yet, the quality of food and service doesn’t even meet basic standards. If you’re going to charge more, the least you can do is deliver a decent plate and not make your guests feel like an afterthought.

The only saving grace is its location — right on the beach, with the ocean just steps away. That earns it a second star. But beyond that, the experience was frustrating, underwhelming, and frankly disappointing.

Bali is known for its exceptional hospitality — warm, attentive, and deeply thoughtful. Having lived here for several months, I’ve seen that standard time and again. Dimpil, unfortunately, is not even close.

Come here if you have nowhere else to go and don’t mind paying for the view — just don’t...

We took pepes ikan (fish in banana leaf) and a tom yam soup. The portions were small but the fish very good. The soup was disappointing and being just hot water with the taste of Tom yam, some dice of raw tomatos/onions and a few small shrimps. I was still hungry so we ordered fries and Spring rolls The fries were ok but the springrolls were not good and being only filled with rice vermicelli and some herbs giving some taste.

The service was friendly and fast. The location is good. The music was just a few songs being played in a loop so not great. In my opinion the food is a bit overpriced for the small portions but with a good taste apart from the above-mentioned. Friendly atmosphere and very good...

Best place to hang out eat chill drink in Pemutheran. Hammocks, great tasty food to please kids and adults, gorgeous not watered down cocktails and super friendly staff who are led by a great owner.

Definitely recommend here. We thought portion sizes were perfect but for 1-2 dollars you could order more if you needed to anyway.

Also did a half day snorkeling trip with these guys. Kadek was professional and fun and the fish were stunning.

Putu is also a therapist and we got gorgeous reflexology, very professional at the hotel next door.

All the good vibes for these guys. Thank you for making...
