La Lucciola

La Lucciola sits on the sand at Petitenget, next to the 15th-century Petitenget Temple, in a two-level thatched pavilion facing the Indian Ocean. It has been one of Seminyak's best-known beach restaurants for decades. The kitchen is Italian with a Mediterranean lean: pastas, seafood and grilled dishes, with breakfast from 9am, lunch from noon and dinner from 5pm. The bar is a popular sunset spot for cocktails and wine. A private dining room, the Firefly Room, holds up to 40 guests with three-course menus from IDR 735,000++. The restaurant is mostly walk-in. Arriving at 5pm for the sunset seating or after 8pm gives the best chance of a table; seatings last two hours and tables take up to eight guests. The dress code for dinner is relaxed smart casual and the restaurant is non-smoking.
