Warung Babi Guling Pak Malen

Amazing place! Love how it feels modern but still keeps the traditional Balinese vibe. The Babi Guling Special blew me away—so many flavors in one bite! The Be Genyol was super tasty too. Easy 5/5 ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

We arrived at this place around 11:40am and it was already quite crowded, with a short queue. The staff took our order and payment first before seating us, which helped streamline the process. Most customers seem to go for the combo set, which includes the restaurant's signature items like crispy pork skin, fried pork belly, and pork liver. However, the portions for each are quite small—just one piece of pork skin, two pieces of pork belly, and one piece of liver, which felt a bit limited. The sauces were a nice addition. The red chili was mild, while the green chili packed more heat and had a great flavour. The fried long bean with pork was a standout dish for me—flavourful and well-cooked—but some of my friends found it too spicy. I wasn’t a fan of the fresh coconut water, as they only serve young coconuts here. It lacked the strong coconut flavour I prefer, and tasted slightly sour and unusual to me. Overall, I can see why this restaurant is popular—the food quality is good, though it didn’t quite blow me away. It’s definitely worth a visit, but it helps to go in with the right expectations.

Wen to Bali past 2 weeks ago Enak!! this restaurant is recommended by the local driver. Is quite poplar among the local and foreigner too. I order their signature dishes. Test good, just the portion is a biz small. Cam and visit on Saturday noon. Can see there was a long queue outside the shop, the staff will serves what you want first in order to make the order faster, need to make payments first before going inside to find a seat. Can see they received many recognized certificates here on the wall.. People here usually will leave after finish dishes...not a place for you to stay long here for chitchat..

Finally, I tried this famous Babi Guling Pak Malen. As seven stars Google Reviewer I have visited many Babi Guling Restaurant, and I can confirm the taste was good. Ambience deserve 5 stars, i love the sleek modern and clean design, really elevate the Babi Guling Restaurant level into next level - All Babi Guling resto shall follow this to level up this traditional Balinese cuisine. Room for improvement on service (queue) and order-payment management, to be honest I am not a type of queueing for one plate of meal, so may consider add more cashier.

For authentic Bali food! This is a must try! But try at your own risk! They have flies flying around their displayed food! But none of my friends or myself had any issue. The food is not bad. It’s worth a try. It’s affordable too! Their chilli can be quite spicy so do get some water in case! Don’t get ice in case got Bali belly!

The food was superb! Definitely one of the best babi guling spots in Bali at the moment. I also appreciated how clean the food felt—it made me less worried about getting Bali belly! 🤭 There was a bit of a queue to order. One suggestion: it would be helpful if the menu was visible to those waiting in line, so people can decide ahead of time and speed up the ordering process. Despite the queue, the food was served quickly. The place itself was modern and clean. Overall, a very pleasant experience!🙆‍♂️

One of the most well-known babi guling place located on Sunset Road. For a popular tourist destination, I still consider their price to be friendly. However, although the taste of their food was great, it isn’t really something to write home about, so I wouldn’t go out if my way to eat it if I’m staying far away.

They renovated in the last year or two, which lets you eat upstairs, which also means more room to serve customers. Malen is legendary for their babi guling (suckling pig). It’s a bit spicy so beware. I notice that they change their vegetables (lawar), i once get the pepaya leaves and sometimes the green beans. A bit pricey, but i guess it’s worth it if you want to try Balinese foods. My personal favorite is their kerupuk, which unlike other places, is spiced and very tasty
