About Warung Melasti

Warung Melasti pairs coconut-husk barbecue with rooftop sunsets facing Mount Agung, serving fresh grilled fish away from Amed’s traffic. Dive crews and return travelers adopt the family-run dining room as their home base for rich Balinese curries, hearty portions, and whole catch roasted over coconut shells—text the kitchen early for a whole mahi-mahi paired with soto ayam.

  • Coconut-Husk Grilling: Whole catch and skewers are flame-grilled over burning coconut husks for deep aromatic smoke without heavy grease.
  • Rooftop Mount Agung Views: Breezy second-floor seating looks out across open skies toward Mount Agung, away from roadside bustle.
  • Pre-Ordered Whole Fish: Call or text ahead early in the day so the kitchen can source and grill a whole catch like mahi-mahi.
