Prime Fish Offers Yakitori Omakase Experience in Charlotte | Eater Carolinas

"An Indonesian-focused restaurant from the same chef-owner that embraces his heritage while also serving as the discreet front for the hidden yakitori counter; the main dining room funnels guests to a covered back entrance where the separate omakase experience is staged." - Timothy DePeugh

The beaches of Nusa Penida are absolutely stunning, with crystal-clear water, dramatic cliffs, and untouched natural beauty. Each beach feels unique and peaceful, making the island a perfect destination for breathtaking coastal views and unforgettable scenery

Nusa Penida is an absolutely fantastic island. It's full of breathtaking cliffs, turquoise waters, and beautiful viewpoints. Every corner feels like a postcard! The beaches are beautiful, but often wild, with strong waves and difficult access. The roads can be a bit bumpy in places, but that's what makes it so charming. The locals are super friendly, the food is excellent, and there are plenty of relaxed places to unwind. The perfect mix of adventure, nature, and island atmosphere - definitely worth a visit!

Nusa Penida is good island. It’s attractive for tourists that’s why little bit crowded. You have to wake up early for one day island trip. Weather is always hot there or rainy so carry sunscreen etc

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ 3.5/5 — Nusa Penida Review • Nusa Penida is beautiful, but honestly one full day is enough to cover all the main spots. • Many famous viewpoints like Kelingking, Diamond Beach, and Rumah Pohon look amazing on Instagram, but most of these places have limited or no direct access unless you book a stay/lodge nearby. • Be prepared for very long queues at photo points — you usually get just 1–2 minutes to take pictures because of the crowd. • Roads are improving but still bumpy and narrow in many stretches. • If you’re booking a ferry from Bali, don’t choose based on the cheapest price. Check safety standards, reviews, and operator reputation — safety matters more than saving a few hundred rupees. • Overall, good for a one-day trip if you want to see the iconic views, but don’t expect the smooth Instagram experience you see online.

AVOID this island,it’s not worth it. Most of the locals are not that friendly and look at you as a walking atm. The prices are high and the roads are in utter ruins. Sun-loungers at the beach cost 200k,unreal. Most of the beaches are very rocky or you have to climb super dangerous steep steps to access. The family at my lodging were very nice and welcoming and the villa I rented was beautiful. I was met at the port with a motorbike from the people I contacted which was nice. The views are quite nice but again that’s all that’s really here. NOT recommended

The island is beautiful, but way too crowded with tourists in the 4 hotspots. The roads are small and in a very bad shape. The tourist restaurants are not reflecting the hospitality of the country. If you have a lot of time then visit the island if not you didn’t miss a lot.

Absolutely breathtaking island! Nusa Penida is a true paradise with dramatic cliffs, crystal-clear waters, and stunning viewpoints like Kelingking Beach and Diamond Beach. It’s perfect for nature lovers, adventure seekers, and anyone looking to escape the crowds. The boat ride from Bali is smooth, and the experience is well worth it. Don’t forget your camera every corner is postcard-worthy!
