Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.
Learn more about our review moderation.

I wasn’t sure how to rate the Pad as I went twice and had varying experiences. The first was really good and with my daughter being celiac this is a very safe restaurant who fully understand the dietary requirements. The food was all very nice....The second visit I waited 10 minutes without being served and asked several times for my order to be taken only to be told someone will be with me shortly, I eventually just gave up and walked out. Overall if it’s a busy night and you’re not in a group I would try elsewhere as the larger groups get priority. The other negative is there are no non smoking sections everyone is mixed in together.More

If your looking for a hangout spot or drinking hole off the main street of legian. This is a good spot. The owner is very friendly and has a chat with anyone he can. The staff are happy and do a good job and the...beer is always cold. You can get snacks or something more substantial and it appears very popular. We had a schnitzel burger which wasn't dry,some calamari that was a light snack and a Tom yum soup. (Lookout for the whole hot chilly) All in all a nice place to hang out. Ps They also have a air-conditioned area if it's too hotMore

Hands down the best “Aussie” food we’ve had in Bali. Beautiful staff and the food was amazing. The mango smoothie is to die for! Delicious 10/10

What an absolute gem this restaurant is ! As a coeliac it is always daunting dining out but having a restaurant like The Pad on Bene that has not only an extensive Gluten free menu but incredible food and knowledgeable about cross contamination is such...a relief when travelling. It means even more when travelling with family and the normal menu is amazing too! It has been a highlight of our trip having somewhere with great tasting food and the best gluten free pizza and banana smoothies I have ever had plus eating somewhere everyone loves ! An added bonus was we had been without power at our Villa for an extended period of time today and were all tired and decided to get food and eat at the Villa fully expecting to have to go pick it up due to being out of their delivery zone and staying in a difficult to find location but they delivered to our door! Definitely one we will always be on our “ must go” list .More

What a great place to visit for a meal in Bali! Very clean, large menu of food and drinks to choose from and friendly staff. My faves were the mozzarella balls with napoli sauce, bruschetta and the satays. Recommend this place for a meal or...drinks while you are in Legian.More

We had lunch and drinks here on a recent trip. The food was served quickly and was delicious. We both had the nasi goreng. We also came for breakfast on one occasion. I had pancakes and hubby had eggs benny. The pancakes were amazing!! Staff...were friendly and efficient and the restaurant was clean and well maintained. Love the cold face towel on arrival! Also no ++tax either which is always something we look for. Highly recommend.More
