The star of the show is undoubtedly the fish, which boasts an unparalleled freshness that speaks to the quality ingredients at play. The masterful blend of tender fish, fiery chili, and savory soy sauce creates a mesmerizing dance of flavors that's emblematic of authentic Indonesian taste.

Their attentive service and friendly demeanor add an extra layer of enjoyment to your visit, forging a connection that transcends mere dining. It's a testament to their commitment to delivering not just a meal, but a heartfelt experience. However, amidst the excellence, one area that could use improvement is the efficiency of service.

While not a major issue, it did momentarily disrupt the otherwise seamless experience. It's important to be aware that quality and authenticity often come with a price tag, and Warung Mak Beng's offerings are no exception.

As a native Floridian who grew up fishing and with a background in F&B, I was less than optimistic before being taken to yet another restaurant for fish. I am used to consistently getting over done fish in Indonesia... When I learned they only have one fish and one set menu (set price = 55 000 IDR), and then saw that it was packed for lunch, my expectations rose. The skipjack tuna steak was perfectly grilled, to my delight. The sambal (chili hot sauce) was oily and overpowering for the tuna. The sambal would have been better accompanying some flavorless meat or on some less than fresh red meat than with the fresh tuna steak I had. However, in Bali, and pretty much everywhere in Indonesia, hot chili peppers and hot sauces are normal on or with almost all meat dishes, so I expected as much before I went there. Fortunately for me and my delicious tuna, it was on the side. The rice was not the most fragrant, but it was decent. The fish head soup was a bit salty, very flavorful, with a rich mix of Indonesian herbs and spices, while also having a sweet taste to it. It was tasty, but not my favorite. The beverage list was good, but why they add lemon to teh poci (vanilla tea) is beyond me. That was not a good combination. The menu only listed hot lemon tea, failing to mention the tea was a vanilla tea with added lemons. They have local traditional snacks for sale, and the one we got was a great accompaniment to our food. They are next to the cashier, so you should get what you want when you arrive instead of asking for something once you are seated. The wait staff was efficient, and they worked to get everyone on the wait list seated as quickly as possible, and there was a non-stop flow of people the entire time I was there. I recommend this place to any Westerner who may be hesitant to try local fish.

My wife insisted that we should come here. Not knowing what we're up against, I agreed to her choice of reataurant. Car parking is quite challenging as there's only a few car parking space in the area. At first, we are rejected to enter the area as there are no parking space available, but we are lucky enough to find a parking spot as a car leaves the area while we're at the entrance. Motorcycle's parking space is on the other hand is available abundantly. But if you care a lot of your motorcylce, I would not recommend you to bring it here. As we reached the restaurant, we had to wait for about 15 minutes as the table is full and we are again lucky enough to be third on the list. Once it's our turn to be seated, we were seated at the table with a tent, which is an outdoor table and it's actually quite convenience as the waiters who takes queue list is standing nearby and therefore ordering additonal drink or rice is pretty quick. Since it was my first time there, I asked for a menu and apparently they only have a single menu which comprise of fried fish, soup fish and a plate of rice fo Rp. 55,000. I honestly feels a bit dissapointed to only be able to ordered a single menu with all the struggle. But as soon as our food has arrived, in which thanks to God that we didn't have to wait long, it was worth to dine there. The fried fish as well as the fish soup tasted delicious. I even finished my daughter's fish soup and ordered another plate of rice. We were there at around 9.30 AM and as soon as we finished our meal, the queue were quite long. So, I recommend you not to come here with very empty stomach. Payment can only be made with hard cash.

Nestled close to the scenic Sanur Beach lies a legendary restaurant that has long been revered for its exceptional seafood. On my recent visit, I understood why this place has earned such acclaim over the years, especially for its standout dishes: the delicious fried fish and the refreshing fish soup. The fried fish was a masterpiece on the plate. The exterior was perfectly crisp, a testament to the chef's expertise in frying technique. Inside, the fish was moist and flavorful, with each bite melting in my mouth. What made this dish even more spectacular was the side of sambal served alongside. Spicy, tangy, and a touch sweet, the sambal was the perfect accompaniment, enhancing the natural flavors of the fish and adding a delightful kick with every dip. Equally remarkable was the fish soup, a bowl full of comfort and freshness. The broth was clear yet richly flavored, steeped with herbs that brought out the essence of the sea. Filled with tender chunks of fish head and vibrant vegetables, the soup was both satisfying and light, making it a refreshing counterbalance to the fried fish. It was the sort of dish that rejuvenates the soul as much as it pleases the taste buds. Dining at this iconic location near Sanur Beach not only offered an unforgettable culinary experience but also a chance to soak in the coastal ambiance that perfectly complements the meal. For anyone visiting Bali, a stop at this legendary restaurant is an absolute must. It's an opportunity to indulge in some of the finest seafood, crafted with tradition and served with love, in a setting that’s as memorable as the food itself.

Was sceptical about this legend restaurant at first bcs you know too much hype equals overrated. But then I decided to try it for dinner. They only serve one menu but with different portion (regular and special) that includes rice, fried fish (depends what fish they catch of the day) and fish soup. Portion wise, the regular one is more than enough I think. At first I thought I wouldn't be full but no, I came home with full tummy and happy. Taste wise, they cook it very well that the fish doesn't smell at all and it tastes so good. The fried fish is pretty crispy on the outside but still juicy and meaty on the inside, and most importantly I found minimal bones! The soup though, legend! It's rich and refreshing! Never though cucumber could be THAT delicious! The seasoning is on point using Indonesian spices, Bali specialties bumbu genep (shallot, garlic, chili, candlenut, galangal, turmeric, kaempferia, ginger, Indonesian bay leaf, lemon grass, lime leaf, etc) that elevates the taste—not too much of spices but just perfect amount. Over all I really love Mak Beng and I would like to come back! Just make sure you bring cash as payment otherwise you have to go nearest ATM as they don't accept other payments.

The famous fish soup and deep fried fish in Sanur, the established from 1960 something (can’t remember) they only have one menu: fish soup. Its always packed during lunch hours especially during long holiday in Bali. Many domestic tourists queueing for the food. Its quite hard to get a table here. You have to wait behind someone and wait until they finished eating. We ordered the food and at that time its not quite packed circa at 10.00. We got a seating without any hassles. Within 5 minutes the food is ready at our table. The soup is little bit spicy and we got the fish head. The fish meat is little bit chewy compared to other fish soup. And the fried fish is crispy. The sambal is quite good. The portion of the rice is quite small. The price is considered expensive for a fish soup. Its 55 thousand without a drink and before tax. We spent 138.000 for 2 food and 2 iced tea. To be honest, for me this place is overrated. If you going to warung across this place you’ll get cheaper fish soup that no one talking about. The service was good.
