Make sure you book one of the little bamboo cocoons by the river. Our food was excellent. A Mediterranean inspired menu that got oohs and aahs from us as we tried to guess flavours. The service was excellent in our private little world away from everyone else. A must-do whilst in Ubud. The hotel is excellent as well!

The food at Kubu was absolutely delightful. We tried the 8 course menu and it is clearly michelin standard. The surroundings are gorgeous. Highly recomended.

The signature restaurant of Mandapa as exceeded all my expectations. The dinner started with a cosy reception followed by a very elegant service in a unique dining atmosphere near the river. I had an amazing food experience that I truly recommend.

We were seated by the rivers edge welcomed by a nice breeze through the the evening. Select the 5 or 8 course experience. Small plates but big flavors. Service is world class. This restaurant is in the top 3 on Bali.
