Why Choose Bamboo Kitchen
Experience secluded rice terrace dining, koi island seating, and genuine Balinese hospitality.
Dining Islands Floating in Koi Ponds
Tables are set on platforms and small islands floating in koi ponds, offering an immersive, tranquil dining setting surrounded by open rice terraces.
The setting is stunning, with tables placed on small islands in the middle of ponds, koi gliding around while rice fields stretch out into the distance.
Wade Wilson Cultural Balinese Offering Workshops
In addition to dining, visitors can participate in authentic family-led Balinese offering workshops using traditional flowers and coconut leaves.
You learn how to make the offerings using coconut leaves, flowers, incense and place them in the family temple. It was the highlight of my time in Bali.
Carol and Jeff A Serene Escape from Busy Streets
The restaurant offers deep tranquility and calm far away from busy urban traffic, allowing guests to relax completely amidst nature.
Bamboo Kitchen is an absolute hidden gem in Ubud. Tucked away down a scenic little gang, it’s best reached by foot—skip the scooter and enjoy the peaceful walk in. The setting is magical: completely surrounded by rice fields, it’s the kind of place that makes you pause and soak in the beauty.
James Krueger Heartfelt Family Hospitality
Guests experience genuine warmth and individual care from the passionate local owners and family members running the venue.
The owner is incredibly kind and passionate, which adds a personal touch to the experience. The food is outstanding. Highly recommended for anyone seeking beauty, tranquility, and heartfelt hospitality.
Kellee Baker Picturesque Footpath-Only Seclusion
Nestled off the beaten track, reaching the restaurant involves a peaceful stroll along narrow concrete footpaths winding through vibrant paddy fields.
To get there, you'll have to stroll along a tiny little path, and the journey is half the fun! Picture this: rice paddies on either side, so green and vibrant.
Alessandro Bertoli Prime Refreshment After the Ridge Walk
Perfectly situated along scenic walking routes, serving as an ideal stop for freshly made juices, coffee, and wholesome meals after exploring.
Best location to eat or drink after the Campuhan Ridge walk. We had the Nasi Campur and Tuna steaks. Both were really good
