Hujan Locale

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.

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

Beautiful brasserie style with delicious indonesian flavors and friendly staff in the center of Ubud. The soft shell crab, chicken korma and beef rendang were all fabulous. Perfect spot for lunch.

I really wanted to like Hujan Locale, but honestly, it just didn’t live up to the hype. Or the price tag. For 330k, I was expecting something exceptional, something that justifies the upscale branding. Instead, what I got felt no different from what you’d find in a good local warung—except here, you’re paying triple for the same experience. The beef rendang, which should’ve been the highlight, was average at best. Flavor was fine, but not memorable. I’ve had rendang from tiny family-run spots that easily outshine this one in both taste and soul. Even the presentation lacked finesse. The ambiance was pleasant enough, but the service crossed into overbearing. The staff seemed to lose their minds over the fact that I had a bottle of energy drink with me—even though I wasn’t drinking it. The way they reacted was unnecessary and frankly insulting. For a restaurant that tries to present itself as refined, that kind of attitude felt petty and off-putting. Overall, Hujan Locale feels like a place coasting on reputation and aesthetics rather than substance. The food is decent, but if you actually care about flavor and value, you’ll find better—and more authentic—meals in the warungs down the street.

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.

Very recommended!!!! I am a solo traveler in Bali, i step into this restaurant as a walk in, however the staff accomodate me at second floor, which has nice ambiance and cozy. I tried their Acehnese Grilled Octopus it was amazing pair with traditional yellow rice. I also tried their Signature Cocktail "Sagara" which good refreshing for evening in Bali . I will definitely come back!!

We had an outstanding experience at Hujan Locale. The local cuisine was exquisite, with fresh ingredients and every dish bursting with flavour, elevated by a touch of sophistication. It’s certainly not the cheapest restaurant in Ubud, but absolutely worth it. The staff were wonderfully welcoming and warm. The setting is charming, a typical local-style restaurant, yet with exceptional attention to detail and a beautifully maintained atmosphere. We tried the crispy chicken and pork batagor dumpling, the slow-cooked beef rendang, and the Acehnese chicken korma, all of which were utterly delicious. We wouldn’t hesitate to return!

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.
