Cuca Restaurant

We found Cuca just after we landed back in Bali and we really enjoyed our experience there. We ordered the following: Nachos Broccoli caeser Roast pork buns (one of our favs) Crispy fried chicken Spicy crab (my fav) The ambience of the restaurant was really cool. Large open air spaces with drawback partitions for privacy. Dimly lit but not too dark. You can see the entire kitchen as well. The staff were so friendly and attentive we really enjoyed our time there and highly recommend going there. Thank you for the amazing food and experience team!

Absolutely amazing. My friend and I stayed in Jimbaran for about 5 days and this is the best restaurant that we have visited. The food of course was on the top and the service delivery was amazing. We absolutely enjoyed every dish and would definitely come back again. It is the place that you must try the chef menu and you know you won’t be disappointed at all! We went with 9 different options and added oysters on top of that. Oysters were so fresh and it was one of the best ones we have tried all across the world. My absolute favorite was their scallop and my friend’s favorite was the bao. We both loved their special on that day, which was the oyster. I have been recommending to all my friends who are visiting Bali soon and especially whoever is visiting the Jimbaran area! With the horrible Bali traffic and a closure of the road the day we were visiting, we had a major delay. However, the staffs were very understanding and friendly. No reason to not visit this restaurant. The price is extremely reasonable as well.

On our third visit to Cuca, we decided to try the Tasting Menu. We really enjoyed the almost theatrical experience of sitting at the bar overlooking the kitchen. Watching the team of chefs prepare their amazing dishes was hypnotic and exciting The service was impeccable, as always. The staff always make us feel welcome and well taken care of. Although, not every dish hit with all of us (it is a tasting menu after all), the ingredients and presentation were excellent. We thoroughly enjoyed the experience. Even though it's been a few years since visiting Cuca, we felt like we were recognized and appreciated. As a bonus, one of the owners visited us at the end of the meal to re-welcome us and asked us how we had enjoyed our experience. He even presented us with a special gift! As a fun and special fine dining experience, Cuca is unbeatable.

We were there for lunch and had the whole restaurant to ourselves. The food kept surprising us in a great way, service was amazing. We felt extremely well taken care of. Everything was pristine! Highly recommend. They have a park and kids menu so it’s great for families too!

We had the chance to enjoy an amazing dinner there. The dishes and recommendations were excellent, especially the restaurant’s best sellers. Every plate was crafted with great attention to flavor, texture, and creative combinations. The oysters with pearls were simply heavenly and perfectly captured the spirit of the whole meal. The crispy rice was also unique, as was the Cuca breakfast dessert. This is definitely a must-visit restaurant in Bali for food lovers—whether you’re with friends, your partner, or family. The open kitchen adds a special touch, allowing you to watch the chefs at work. The only small detail for me was the wine, which didn’t quite match my taste with the dishes, and the spicy sauce, even though I usually enjoy spicy flavors. Apart from that, the mocktails and service were absolutely exceptional.

This place definitely deserves 5 stars! It is the perfect restaurant if you are looking for a fine dining experience. From the moment you get to the gate till the end , they make you feel special. They have a tablet where they show you how each dish looks which is very helpful. Just be mindful that the portions are pretty small. We ordered the Almost Bbq Ribs and the Bbq Octopus and they were very small. So if you are very hungry, keep this in mind. We only wanted to check it out and didn't come starving, otherwise we would have ended up ordering more. FYI, the ribs come in two small pieces. They also offered us some complementary dish that looks like small marshmallow with the texture of a cotton candy - Cotton Betutu. Definitely give it a try.

Fabulous!!! Such a wonderful evening. It is hard to believe you are in Bali when you step into the immaculate modern space. Every effort is made to make you feel welcome. We had a drink in the beautiful garden area surrounded by fairy lights. I had the Bloody Mary- wow!!!! This is one of the nicest drinks I’ve had in a long time. The ice was tomato pearls and the drink itself was so light and flavoursome- I need ti go back just to try this again. We did the tasting menu. I highly recommend sitting at the bar overlooking the kitchen. It was wonderful to watch the talented staff at their stations working their magic. Food was so inventive and different. So refreshing to go somewhere where the talent is so high and the skill levels to try imaginative pairings that work so well and are all cooked to perfection. I cannot recommend this restaurant more highly. It is not just a dinner but an experience. My favourite was the octopus- I have no idea how they made it so tender. My partner loved the beef bone marrow. Hopefully we can fit in another visit before we leave Bali to try some of the dishes that weren’t on the testing menu and to have another Bloody Mary!

We had an amazing dinner at Cuca in Jimbaran. All the tapas were creative and full of flavor, and the cocktails were excellent. The atmosphere is beautiful and relaxing, perfect for a special evening. But the best part was the service, especially from our waitress Putu. She was incredibly warm, kind, and attentive – we truly enjoyed talking with her. Her hospitality made the night unforgettable. We highly recommend Cuca and will definitely come back! 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟
