About ARUM Asian Restaurant

Pair vibrant pan-Asian flavors with live Balinese theater set right over tranquil resort lotus ponds. Dinner doubles as an intimate cultural stage—dancers perform traditional Kecak, Barong, and Ramayana routines in the center room while skewers of satay combination and wok-tossed pad thai hit the tables. Diners consistently note how thoughtfully the kitchen handles severe dietary needs, reworking curries and stir-fries to be strictly gluten-free, nut-free, or dialed back on heat. Meals close out over tropical passion fruit and coconut panna cotta as the gamelan beats softly in the background.

  • Cultural Dinner Theater: Evenings feature central stage performances of Kecak, Barong, and Ramayana alongside traditional live music.
  • Attentive Allergy Accommodations: The kitchen routinely customizes pan-Asian recipes for gluten-free, peanut-free, and tree nut-free dining without sacrificing spice balance.
  • Pondside Resort Setting: Overlooks peaceful lotus ponds within the resort grounds, serving regional specialties from satay skewers to tropical panna cotta.

Before you head over

Practical dining tips for timing dinner shows and customizing pan-Asian dishes

  • Time Dinner Around the Nightly Show

    Traditional Balinese performances such as the Kecak, Barong, and Ramayana run for about 40 minutes and take place on the center stage during dinner service, so time your seating around the shows.

  • Request Custom Allergen Modifications

    Notify your servers right away about gluten, peanut, or tree nut allergies; the culinary team adapts Asian dishes like Pad Thai, Larb Gai, and panna cotta to strict requirements.

  • Adjust Spice Levels Upon Ordering

    Traditional Balinese dishes carry significant heat, but the kitchen accommodates milder palates across the menu upon request if you prefer dishes prepared less spicy.
