Ikan Bakar Jimbaran Bu Kadek — Restaurant in Kuta

A five star food with street price! A hidden gem in Seminyak for seafood lover since at Jimbaran, you have to pay way more than the price here. We paid IDR 275K or around 20 USD for the food in the picture (sorry I forgot to take more pics since the I was hungry and intended to enjoy my food LOL)

Love their prawns and clams. You can call them in advance to prepare your food before you come, so the timing would be perfect for your hungry tummy. Also they provide free vegetables and all you can eat for rice.

A friend of mine recommended the place last year and I always wanna come again. The family that owns the business is super friendly. It's a street vendor, so don't expect a fancy place. But I'm sure you'll love it.

You can park your car across the place without hustle bustle. There are some other vendors there that sell Sate Padang, gorengan and...

Great restaurant! The food was fresh and tasted really good. This is what I call Bali style seafood because of its seasoning. I highly recommend buying their clams and shrimp cooked in their "pedas-manis" sauce. It truly shows the Indonesian taste.

One note is located in a type of market with limited space of parking. It's better if you use a motorcycle.

Price wise, it's reasonable, I spent around Rp. 150,000 for 2 people. We got 10 pieces of clams and shrimp, 2 portions of rice, and 1 kangkung plecing (beware its very spicy). You guys must try their sambal matah, I love the shallots (its mixed with coconut oil, I believe). Staff was friendly and able to speak some english.

I'll definitely come back...

I just ate at Ikan Bakar Jimbaran Bu Kadek, and honestly, it was disappointing. I don’t get how people say it’s good. The seasoning on the clams was dry, and compared to the real seafood spots in Jimbaran, this place is way off.

Prices are pretty standard, not exactly cheap. Seating is limited, and most of the crowd seems to be local Balinese. The menu is mostly grilled items (fish, prawns, clams, squid) with the usual plecing kangkung on the side.

The sambal matah was just okay, nothing special. Same with the plecing kangkung — very standard. Nothing wow about it. Honestly, there are plenty of other seafood places with way better flavor.

In the end, it’s all about personal taste, but for me… this one’s...
