I had initially earen here a couple of years ago not long after they opened but on thus occasion called in for a late nite drink after 9.30pm... i had heard about their famous freak shakes.
There was still 5/6 tables eating food when we arrived and when i mentioned we were just after drinks there was no problem.
I ordered the chocolate freak shake which was huge coming with alsorts of tasty add ons , there is 8 to choose from.
My wife went for a minty lime lemonade which was equally well presented.
Canang is well situated amongst other restaurants, is very spacious and the staff are very friendly , I'll be back again on my next trip to try more of the menu soon.

We found this restaurant 12 months ago when staying in Sanur. All three of us were looking forward to visiting again as this restaurant won the best rendang in a 3 week stay. We booked to ensure we got a table as we know how popular the place has become. We requested an outside table and we were accommodated with this. The girls ordered cocktails which seemed water down which was not the case 12 months ago. The entrees were good with the girls ordering the pork belly and I choose the Spring rolls. Two of us ordered the rendang which lack any real flavour. This was the dish we were looking forward to. My partner had the mei goring which she rated as delicious. The girls did not bother ordering anymore cocktails and stuck with good old Bintang. Overall disappointed with meal and drinks. Will probably not go back in the future.

Dear Tony W,

Thank you for taking the time to write this review.

I'm sorry to hear your visit to our restaurant was only average this time. Thank you for your feedback about the rendang. I will consult with our chef to re-check the quality of these dishes. I am however disappointed you did not inform me about this issue in person when you were here because there is nothing much I can do about it now.

I would like to address to other people reading as well. 99% of the dishes or ingredients of the dishes we serve here are homemade, we go the extra mile in doing this to ensure we can give the best quality to our customers. There is a downside to this. Because these are real food made by real people using fresh ingredients and not mass produced packaged commercial ingredients made in a factory, the outcome will not be 100% exactly the same every time. Of course we will apologize if this results in nay inconvenience but most people understand and are OK with this.

I do not understand why you thought the cocktails were watered down. All our cocktails have specific measurements and they are all made in an open bar so everyone can see because we have nothing to hide. We definitely do not add water to our drinks. However most of our cocktails do contain ice and in room temperature ice does melt and turn into water, perhaps this is what you tasted.

If these are your only complaints I am glad everything else was good. You booked and got a great seating, good service and food. It sounds like there were more positives than negatives so even though you only gave us a 3 star rating I will countthis as a win.

I understand if you probably wont come back in the future and that's OK, that means more room for other customers.

Thank you for your visit to our restaurant.

Best regards

Wayan

We went here because of the great reviews...2 for 1 cocktails till 7pm ... Live music, which was fantastic, amazing staff and the food we had was gorgeous. We didn't each much as we were still full but decided to drink the cosmos.. We had so many the boss lady gave us 2 on the house !
It was very busy and a must if in sanur... The atmosphere was great and the menu choice was great...
Easy to find and only 10% surcharge with fair prices.
Would highly recommend it to everyone 👍

Me and my girlfriend have just come back from Sanur beach. We have to say that this is definitely the best place to eat as we tried many before but none could live up to Canang... You seriously have to try the butterfish dish, everything on the plate compliments one another. One of the best things about the restaurant was how tentative the staff were to you... They even offered us a free dessert as it was our last night but unfortunately we couldn't find any room as we were stuffed on the butterfish. If we were to go back to Sanur this would be the first place we would go to for our food.

Unfortunately didn't get a very good pic of the butterfish but this is the fajitas and the stuffed chicken.
