PUKU Bali — Restaurant in Bali

Its been 2 years since I was here at a favourite haunt in Bali. Was even better than the last times i was here. I had the Pork Miso Ramen and yet again i Have to say its up there with the best Ive ever had outside Japan. Broth was so good. Pork was seasoned and cooked pefectly and not too fatty. Veggies were nice, Bamboo was also seasoned perfectly and very tasty. As for the crispy pork. I literally can not fault it. With the sambal it was such a delight. I had to order a second portion. Washed down with a number of Asahi. It was a good Thursday afternoon. Well done Puku. Cant wait to return. 🙏🙏

Ok so I obviously haven't had every Ramen in Bali. However Ive been here for years and I do seek them out and as someone who lived on them in Japan for a while this is second best only to the one at Sensorium in Canggu in my humble opinion. An Excellent Tonkotsu indeed. Their other smoked meat dishes and Wonton are also very good but it's all about the Tonkotsu for me. Love that you cant get it takeaway too. All Very reasonably priced as well. Well...

I ordered Tonkotsu Ramen with Premium Traditional Chasiu. It was delicious. I feel like they put a lot of effort into their noodles. About the pork broth, the only thing that makes me wonder is the aftertaste. It felt bitter to me, not sure if that’s make any sense to you. Personally, it doesn’t go well with the bok choy as well. Usually I always finish my ramen broth until the last drop, this time I didn’t do it. I’m really sorry. Maybe it’s just my tongue, though. I will update this review if I ever visit this place again.

Other than that, they have great coffee, great view, great staff, and great rice paddy view. I was all alone during a lunch hour, a bit sad to see that. If you see their menu, you know they put a lot of effort in this business. Hope Puku team grows more and more.

I took shots of their menu pages, because I noticed Puku team didn’t update the menu in Google Maps. Hope that’s fine for everyone, just want to help someone who’s randomly choose place to go in Google...

PUKU Bali in Ubud is a hidden gem! This quaint restaurant offers a variety of ramen, rice bowls, and bakmi, all served in a cozy space with stunning views of lush paddy fields.

We tried: • Pork Tonkatsu Ramen (65K): A hearty dish with rich, heavy pork broth, perfectly cooked ramen noodles, and generous toppings like pork belly chashu, ajitama egg, bok choy, and bamboo shoots. • Gekikara Tori Ramen (65K): A spicy chicken ramen with flavorful broth, tender chicken chashu, and all the traditional ramen toppings—a great pick for spice lovers. • Pan-fried Gyoza (38K): Crispy yet juicy pork gyoza served with a tangy dipping sauce—absolutely delicious! • Spicy Chicken Dumplings (38K): A flavorful mix of chicken and prawn, enhanced by Szechuan chili oil and black vinegar—an absolute must-try.

The service was friendly and attentive, and the food was served promptly. Whether you’re here for the food or the serene views, PUKU Bali is a fantastic spot to enjoy a relaxing meal....
