Jimbaran Bay Seafood (JBS)

I had a great dining experience at this beachfront restaurant, and I’d definitely recommend it, especially if you love fresh seafood and beautiful sunset views. The fish and calamari were incredibly fresh, which made a big difference in taste — both were perfectly cooked and delicious. I chose mine with a bit of spice, and it was just right — flavorful but not too strong, even for someone from Europe who isn’t used to very spicy food. One of the highlights is that you can personally choose your fish from the fresh catch of the day before it’s grilled, which adds a nice, authentic touch to the experience. The setting right by the beach is amazing, especially during sunset, when the sky turns colorful and the whole place gets a relaxed, romantic vibe. The music and atmosphere were also great — a mix of good tunes that matched the mood of the evening, with people chatting, laughing, and clearly enjoying themselves. The staff were kind and attentive, helping to make the whole experience smooth and pleasant. Overall, it’s a perfect place to enjoy fresh seafood, relax with great music, and watch the sun set over the ocean.

Recommended by Ibob our driver. Our table was outside on the sand which I was dreading but I shouldn’t have. No sand on the table or the food! The food was lovely, clams a bit chewy but no complaints on the rest. We had the romantic package & it could have fed 4 people. Soo much food. The staff were so pleasant & made sure we had the most amazing experience watching the sunset. Thank you 🙏

I am writing this review to warn other traveler, especially first-timers to Bali, about this terrible experience booked through a particular agency on Klook. What was advertised as a comprehensive day tour turned out to be a complete scam and a massive waste of time and money. Our "whole day itinerary" was poorly designed and felt like a deliberate ploy to fill time. We were driven to multiple, nearly identical beaches that were completely unnecessary and took hours of backtracking and sitting in traffic. Instead of a curated experience, it felt like we were just checking boxes for the driver's log, with no genuine highlights or adequate time to enjoy any single location. The worst part was the blatant restaurant scam. We were taken to a pre-selected seafood restaurant with terrible service. We were pressured into an overpriced "seafood package." After finally ordering, we waited over 1 HOUR 40 mins for our food. The final insult is No food serving lost my patience on waiting food to be served which included a ridiculous 21% "service tax" on top of the already inflated prices—for service that was practically non-existent. This was clearly a kickback scheme for the tour operator at our expense. This was not a tour; it was an expensive, frustrating lesson. Final Warning to First-Time Traveler: Please, DO NOT CHOOSE this tour. 2 people/couple package seafood price range start with $85 dollar not included 21% tax surcharges. PLEASE NOTE there wasn’t any sunset for that day 1 hour travel to Jimbaran with shit weather, traffic jam, windy, and no food serving. You will be scammed, rushed, and disappointed. Save your money and invest in a reputable, well-reviewed private tour where you can control the itinerary and avoid these predatory traps. This experience nearly ruined our day in Bali. Learn from our mistake.

I have been invited by friends for dinner, the food was very good, the service requires more work on. The view for the Sunset is a wooww. Should get for the Sunset at least 1 hour before. So you could have a good table on the Beach...

We visited this place this evening with Three Friends. We bought one and a half kilos of fish. We bought one and a half kilos of calamari. They cooked half of the calamari normally. Half of it was pitch black, stinking, tasted bad, cooked in rancid oil, it smelled really bad, it was inedible. I definitely do not recommend this place, they also cooked the fish we bought from the fish market very badly, it was inedible, we couldn’t eat the food they brought to our table, it was so badly cooked, cooked in rancid burnt oil, we couldn’t eat the food, DEFINITELY DO NOT GO HERE..

Overly rated restaurant. Look at the portion and size of the food in the pictures. Is it worth 2M rp(including service charges and apparently the service is bad as well)? Mediocre taste, it nearly spoilt my mood of the bali trip.

Great food, good customer service. Overall a 5 star experience. Ikan bakar and lobster was amazing. Kids love the sunset , playing by the beach whilst waiting for the food. We got there at 6pm just in time for the sunset!

Yeah, the huge amount of plastic litter on the beach is an eyesore! However, the food is good and the view, spectacular! Added bonus of being serenaded by an acoustic quartet and bongo drummer.
