Discovering a new secret dining spot always gets us excited. From the minute we descended beneath Uluwatu’s rugged cliffs, we knew we were in for a treat. Nothing screams 'out of the box' more than a restaurant nestled inside a natural cave facing the endless sea for sure. The vibes extend throughout the evening, where the sound of waves and the flicker of candlelight dominate. It definitely felt like we had stepped into a truly cinematic hidden escape.
We began with something light and delicate Tuna Toro Sashimi with green jalapeño sauce and black caviar followed by rich mains like Seven Plus Wagyu Picanha and Lobster Linguine. To wrap the night in sweetness, we had the Coal Touched Pavlova for an end note.

The food is the heart of the experience. From small sharing plates to hearty mains, the menu celebrates traditional Indonesian recipes with a modern touch. For a classic favorite, try the slow cooked Classic Beef Rendang, or dive into the rich Bamboo Lobster with Signature Marinade. The bar adds excitement with cocktails that tell a story, like the signature Waingapu Blossom.
