I reviewed this restaurant once 9 months ago on my first trip to Bali. This time I didn't have pizza. The restaurant was empty and I am not sure if the pizza was fired up. The waitress steered to 3 dishes- penne pasta alfredo with chicken, Tomahawk pork chop or Seafood platter. I chose the Tomahawk pork chop with roasted potatoes and a avocado/shrimp salad as an appetizer. The avocado shrimp salad was swimming Balinese stripped down version of thousand island dressing. That is ketchup and mayonanaise. It is ubiquitous in Bali and I hate it. I can't understand the love affair with this horrible concoction. Even Mcdonald's secret has more flair. To add insult to injury, I calculated that there were 5-7 tables spooned added, coating the salad in a pinkish goo. The shrimp were shrimpishly small and probably frozen. The pork chop was very good. It was accompanied by a small salad with Balsamic vinegar dressing and hash browns. That was the first time I had hash browns being called roasted potatoes. The pork chop plate was good. The salad was bad. I suggested that they may want to ask if the customer would like the dressing on the side. The atomosphere was a nice as I remembered it. It is an inviting restaurant with a warm, casual vibe. I gave it 1 star less because of the...

The truth be told, what really drew me here was the streetside chalkboard sign, proclaiming their tomahawk pork chops and wood fired pizzas. The dining area is a large open-air pavilion, with a grassy garden setting behind.
It is open between 2 and 11pm daily (though they were closed we originally planned, which was New Years Day). It was a relatively hot humid night, so we chose to set in the garden area and catch the light breeze. It was a casual relaxed dining experience, a better setup for westerners than the local Warungs. My pork chop was a perfectly cooked slab of meat - tender and delicious - so glad that I tried it. My wife went the BBQ pork ribs, we she thoroughly enjoyed. A lot of the other diners ordered pizzas and they smelled really good.
They do deliveries, so worth keeping that in mind if you are...
Read moreI had an absolutely horrendous experience at this restaurant. To start, the food was terrible; it felt like I was chewing on sand. However, the worst part was yet to come. When the bill arrived, they had added extra charges with the pen on the bill saying that this is how all the restaurants here in Bali are doing and that were not mentioned anywhere on the menu or even on the bill. When I questioned these charges, the staff insisted I had to pay them.
I explained that I didn't have cash on me, și I want to pay by card. Instead, they demanded I go to an ATM to withdraw cash. This ridiculous request cost me an additional 20 minutes, not to mention the frustration and inconvenience.
It's outrageous and unacceptable for a business to try and cheat their customers in such a blatant manner. I left the restaurant feeling angry and deeply disappointed. I would strongly advise against dining here unless you want to be scammed and have a thoroughly...
