Warung Babi Guling Ibu Oka 1

This was my first time trying Babi Guling. It was delicious. Unfortunately, the day we came, the crispy pig skin was already sold out, so we got pork floss instead. If you're Thai or anyone else who likes spicy and flavorful tastes, don't miss this place! It's delicious and deeply savory! (Pro-tip: Don't hesitate to add more chili for extra heat!)

Found this place through a social media review and really pleased we visited! A proper local plate of food — tender, slow-cooked suckling pig with a generous square of crackling, accompanied by a spicy sausage and a tasty local vegetable dish. It’s a very simple, no-frills spot but centrally located with quick, friendly service. The flavours were spot on — not too spicy, just enough to give it a lift. If I’m being picky, the pork was a touch on the dry side and the crackling could have done with that final blast of heat for extra crunch. But overall, definitely worth a visit — I probably just arrived with expectations set sky-high!

Its near to the palace few minutes walk. Good enough serving food was ok was good and sauce was not spicy which is really good for foreign people dont like really spicy food. Roasted pig skin was not available anymore unfortunately we ate around 3pm probably was already sold out so they substitute fried pig skin on the babi guling meal.

(1/5) Food (0/5) Cleanliness (0/5) Environment (0/5) Services (0/5) Ingredient They do not open the lights and fan too for the guests. And the shop is dark. The air flow…. omg No comments Disappointed.

Unsure what the hype is about this restaurant. I dined here around 5pm, and the place was fairly empty. They had run out of the crispy pork skin so we were served some crackers in its place. The pork meat was dry and bland. Perhaps I went there on an off-day, but I would find it difficult to recommend this restaurant to anyone.

Not sure why this place got bad reviews but if you like eating grilled/bbq pork then this is a good choice. Also the price is very affordable

Balinese and tourist alike says they're amazing. I personally thinks it's okay/normal. I don't understand what'l the hype is about 😅 maybe I expect too much. I liked the pork crackling (usually there's this so I'm guessing it was that) and soup compared to another one I tried though. Its pricey at 104k for one person with drink. Another babi gulung local I tried was only like 25/30k per person. But that was outside of town so... The location was strategic right beside the palace. Can sit down while people watching.

We have been one of loyal fans of Ibu Oka. For me, this is the best Babi Guling in Bali. Our view was indeed shared by the legend Chef Anthony Bourdain in one of his videos. Our favorite menu item would be SBabi Guling Special with extra skins. The food is here is 4.9/5.0 stars. To avoid long queue (especially during holiday season), please try to be at there before 11:30 am. They take cash only (no cards or QRIS).
