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.

You will have to be hungry to get through it!! Makan is well located on Jalan Padma, just up from the legendary Padma Hotel. The staff are very obliging, moving the fans around to help cool you down. The prices are a bit high as some of the portions are quite small but still delicious. The banana split is the exception! Also served decaf coffee which was a bonus.

The food is quite nice, we order 1 portion of pork knuckle. The portion is quite big for 2 people but if you have big appetite maybe can have 1 portion each. The drink is not very nice in my opinion so I won’t say anything much about that. But the food is quite nice and price can say a bit pricey. The place is really pretty, we go in the afternoon for lunch and the ambience is nice. Few minutes walking distance from the beach. Overall is quite worth it.

This restaurant attached to the Bali Padma Resort is well worth a visit.
Have been several times and is always popular.
While a little more pricey than those in the vicinity its well worth a vist.
Drinks and cocktails,they have a good range.
Menu caters for all tastes.
Atmosphere is great and features large bamboo structures inside which have good effect.
Live music every night.

Makan is an excellent place for great value food .. Without compromise.. Very nice outdoor setting with huge fans to cool you down. We came here for lunch and had an amazing two course lunch with cocktails 2 4 1 for 23 GBPS . Staff were as attentive as they could be.
This cool place gets a massive thumbs up .. We shall return .. Highly recommended.. Enjoy !

My partner and I came here with friends and by ourselves and everything is just amazing, the food, drinks, value for money (very reasonable price), cleanliness, and staff are all so welcoming and accommodating - they always ask if we have allergies when we order. We ate here a few times and each time we had Ima as our waitress, she is fabulous!
We even booked and requested the bar to watch the footy finals on the TV and of course, very accommodating.
If you're wanting a lovely lunch or dinner, cannot recommend enough!

Located in the busy Legian area, this place is semi open air that serves good variety of food. Went here for dinner, the food and services in general were great. Place has good vibes too.
Sadly, one of the waiter who served us did not have her mask on, probably due to mask is not mandatory anymore in open space, however, for a restaurant we would appreciate more if mask is worn. Price is on par with the food quality. Place can be crowded during weekend.

We have eaten here about a dozen times and every time we have had the pleasure of being served by Widnya who is the sweetest and most attentive human being. He remembers my daughters names every time and goes above and beyond to take care of us. He has a smile that stretches across the room and we always look forward to seeing him. Thank you for enhancing a delicious dining experience!

Makan place , restaurant just hundred meter from the Ocean , international high quality cuisine is served with balinese touch and UNIQUE courtesy extended to us by staff like Misses Yuli n Devi.
Returning to enjoy a drink or a meal it is not just a question of good food but also to have a friendly chat with them...really worthy even for Italian pasta or espresso.

Yesterday we were afraid this place is closed but when we checked it was open. Because in the midst of a pandemic situation, many restaurants in Bali are currently closed. My family from Jakarta came on vacation and wanted to eat there because we knew from a long time ago about this place that was never deserted and the quality of the food was amazing. When we arrived at the place, we were sad to remember that before covid this place was never this empty. However, the staff is very friendly and runs health protocols well, uses masks and the place is also clean. Although the food choices are reduced but we are very satisfied with the generous food portions plus there is free vanilla ice / peach ice tea in every food we order, and the most satisfying thing is that the quality of the taste is very delicious and extraordinary. We are very satisfied with our lunch at Makan Place and also the staff are very friendly. Thank you Makan Place!

Wonderful food and service. We had the satay chicken, Mie goreng, calamari and cocktails; all were delicious and served by the lovely Pande who was very attentive and helpful. Would highly recommend for anyone visiting the area

We dined here due to reading the reviews and it's proximity to The Padma.
I ordered a pasta dish with chilli. I love chilli. However the dish came out and the quantity of chilli made it impossible to eat. I tried to remove a lot of it but it was not possible due the quantity and how finely it was cut. I did ask the waitress if there was anything they were prepared to do to fix the dish but was simply told that it hoe it's served. Left hungry. Won't be returning on our next trip.

After having a very disappointing visit in 2019 and considering never returning, Pande has won us back.
We decided to give Makan another chance. I’m glad we did! From the moment we walked into the restaurant, we were greeted, seated and served. Pande made sure our meal was correct, he was very attentive and asked us mid-meal if everything was going well and if we needed anything else.
The atmosphere is great, live music, bamboo structure and water pond sounds make it feel like Bali.
The only small consideration would be to introduce more air flow as it gets quite muggy and hot if there’s no breeze.

I have dined at Makan place on numerous trips and always enjoyed. This visit turned out to be one of the nicest dinners of the trip due to the awesome service we received. We were a bit hot and flustered on arrival, after a hectic afternoon and the staff quickly found us a l lovely table. We were fortunate enough to be waited on by an outstanding waiter by the name of Gus Adi, his service was attentive, polite, helpful and friendly. He made our night really enjoyable and nothing was too much trouble. Throughout our 10 day trip we dined at many places from the Mulia through to local warungs and encountered no service better than what we received at Makam Place Legian. In addition we enjoyed a lovely bottle of local rose and hands down the best nasi goreng of the trip (a little bit spicy, just how I like it). This restaurant is definitely worth a visit.

My partner and i visited Makan twice on our trip, our waitress was Eliysa and she provided us with the most helpful service, she was professional, kind and very considerate. Elisya gave us tips on things to do while in Bali and all of her advice was very helpful and appreciated.
The food and drink was also great and would highly recommend.
Thank you to Elisya for everything she did for us!
