Bebek Bengil Ubud

Delicious crispy duck and big portions. Beautiful setting with koi ponds, lily pads and so many trees. We got to sit on the floor and it was a fun authentic experience. The restaurant and gardens are huge! Very popular and can see why. Go here for something unique and authentic. It’s halal!

Delicious duck, they have it down to the wire! Really great vibes overall - walk in the rice fields, music, charming elevated floor seatings (in addition to normal tables). And great chilli! A real institution clearly.

Everyone that want to taste local deck should try either the crispy deck or the sweet sauce one. Both are really good! And the ambience and view, unbeatable!

We came here today for dinner at 5pm because of their famous duck dish Timbungan. The menu did show it as a today special. However, when I ordered it, a staff said they did not have it without explaining why. They should remove this item from the menu if they did not have it. Being disappointed, I had to ordered the crispy duck one since the staff told me it was a must try dish. Here is our rating for the food. 1/ Crispy duck: 4/5 The duck was well marinated, neither too salty nor too bland. However the frying process made some parts of the meat burnt and really crunchy dry. The other meat part was ok, moist but not much meat to enjoyed since the duck was rather skinny. The red sauce was ok, not too spicy for me. The green bean and bean sprout salad was also ok. The steam rice was dry. Personally, I think this dish was just so so. Plus, the presentation was not really appealing to me. 2/ The Nasi Goreng vegetarian was good. My friend enjoyed it. He said the fried rice had a nice flavor. 3/ The Nasi Goreng with duck meat was also ok. They mixed small shreded duck meat with the fried rice. My friend who is a Balinese said this dish to him was a 4/5. At the end of the meal, I ordered their also "must try" Black Russian pie. Once again, they did not have it. I think I have picked a wrong day to come here. The restaurant has a gorgeous rice field view. The garden was also beautiful with statues lotus ponds and lush green plants around. It was a very well kept venue. I would give 5/5 for the atmosphere. In addition, staff here were also very polite and attentive. I would give them also a 5/5. Overall, it was just a so so dinner. If you really want to try their Bebek Bungil Timbungan, call them (WhatsApp) first before coming. Otherwise, you will be disappointed like me.

First meal back in Bali after two years, and unfortunately, it was a letdown. Despite the many glowing reviews, the experience didn’t live up to the hype. Their signature crispy duck—supposed to be a highlight—arrived cold and dry, lacking the tenderness and flavor I was expecting. The chicken satay was equally underwhelming, tasting no better than something you’d find at a generic buffet. Overall, the place felt like a tourist trap banking on its reputation rather than delivering genuine quality. Disappointing start to the trip, and we likely won’t be returning.

According to my 12 year old son “it was worth the 20 minute walk.” Lovely ambiance and great food. Good value for money. We’ll be coming back next time we’re in Ubud.

Bebek Bengil is one of my favorite spots in Ubud! Every visit is a treat, especially for the incredible smoked duck – tender, rich, and packed with flavor. It’s perfectly cooked and beautifully presented every time. I also really love the sambal matah – it’s not overly spicy, but wonderfully fragrant and flavorful, the perfect complement to the duck. The setting is peaceful and uniquely Balinese, surrounded by lush greenery and rice fields. It’s the kind of place where you can truly relax and enjoy a slow, satisfying meal. The staff are always kind and attentive, making the whole experience even more enjoyable. If you’re looking to try an iconic Balinese dish in a beautiful setting, this is definitely the place to go. Highly recommended!

We tried crispy and traditional duck. Both are good, really love the chili sauce go with the crispy. If you can eat, should try. It is perfect match with the dish. The price is around 150 IDP per dish which is a little high for a normal meal in Bali yet the portion is big and worth a try in total.
