Mest serves regional Turkish barbecue and charcoal-grilled kebabs from an airy, two-story perch in Uluwatu. Diners head upstairs for the afternoon breeze and sunset light, settling in over thin, crisp lahmacun alongside charred Adana kebabs and walnut-studded Mest salad. The kitchen prepares staple plates from scratch—from tender İskender over pita to house-rolled mantı—bringing comforting homeland seasoning to southern Bali. Meals wind down naturally with a glass of complimentary Turkish black tea.

Mest Salad
The Mest salad was especially delicious — it reminded us of gavurdağı salad, and the walnuts made it even more special.

We also ordered the red lentil soup. Not too strong of flavor, if you like red lentils you’ll love this soup.
