Hujan Locale

The service was great and the food was yummy (just wished the beef rendang to be more tender). The whole fish was very well prepared. It was soft and steamy inside, while the batter was thin and crispy. The grilled pork for me was the highlight. The meat was flavourful and it was well marinated. The place would be slightly brighter, we couldn’t see the food. But still highly recommended.

Overall this was a lovely high end restaurant in Ubud. Not cheap but worth it for the exquisite food. The beef rendang was a little tough but the spices were so gd. The sambal potatoes were the best dish of the whole meal. The fried fish was really fresh while the free assorted crackers were delicous with the homemade sambal. We really liked the fusion lobster dumplings. Overall ambience was great although it was a tad dark for our liking.

Had been wanting to dine here for the many years it has been open, but one reason or another had not made it. As a result, I wanted to try as many things as possible for this well regarded Ubud institution. I'm not going to be elaborate on the setting in this review. It is well documented in the others feedback, it is a modern classy dining experience with a heavy influence to the Balinese styling and high class service. We chose 3 dishes from the GlUtEn FrEe menu. The dietary options is on a seperate menu with distinct listings for different allergy types such gluten free, dairy, nuts, etc - the staff even ask the kitchen to not cross touch the dishes that are selected off this menu is other dishes are selected. The food was rich, delicious and exceptionally presented. ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Pork sate 🐖 (wife found them salty) GF ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Beef Rendang 🐄 GF ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Chargrilled octopus 🐙 GF ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Slow cooked pork belly 🐖 ⭐⭐⭐ Groper dumplings 🥟 - deep fried and crispy wonton creates great texture ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Chicken sate 🐔 from the kids menu - that sauce is divine ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Nasi goreng 🐠 from the kids menu ⭐ Chilli & Lime Margarita - was overpowered by pineapple juice and no other flavours beside the dusting on the glass (disappointing) Tony Chen recommends this with the comment that is an experience but I do not need to return

I wished I could order more food to try but judging by other pictures seen in here, there’s no way I could finished them all. I had a very very good meal here, and was just very pleased with the nuances of the flavours here. From the crackers down to my my last bite of dessert, it was yums. In my food spread was the complimentary peanut crackers, lobster dumplings, sate Babi merah, and an affogato with brown sugar glutinous rice balls.

Hujan is always a delight, offering a refined modern twist on traditional Balinese flavours. The upstairs open-air dining room feels cosy, atmospheric, and wonderfully comfortable. The food is consistently delicious, and the wine list is well‑priced without ever feeling cheap. A consistently enjoyable experience. I had Starter Tuna on beetle leaf The scallop ( my favourite out of them all ) The lobster dumplings Main - the octopus curry and turmeric rice

We were recommended this place and it certainly did not disappoint! We came without a booking but were able to sit downstairs in the bar area and order all the food. The cocktails were great and the food was amazing. Some really interesting and unique flavours all round with too many dishes to recommend! Wish we had come another night to try some more.

We had a lovely meal here! The staff is very wonderful and the food was great. They have very clear menus that help you navigate dietary restrictions like allergies, which I very much appreciated. We came for lunch and loved the view but I think dinner here would be so special.

Found this place through this year’s Wonderful Indonesia Gourmet Guide and I think Hujan Locale has represent the idea of Indonesian dish perfectly. The menu is so diverse and accommodating towards various allergies. I am particularly fond of the scallop ceviche and the Jagung Bakar with pork floss is brilliant (my childhood snack is getting a remix haha). For mains, we went for Chicken Korma and Rendang. Oh my word, out of the world kind of good. Cocktails are absolutely divine too, personal fav would Butterfly Pea Martini but they have mocktails in a grown up glass too (if you know what I mean). I can’t wait to go back. 100% recommended.
