"Nelayan Bali Restaurant is an absolute must-visit in Sanur! From the moment we arrived, we were enchanted by the stunning beachfront setting and the elegant, yet relaxed, atmosphere. The view, especially at sunset, is simply breathtaking and sets the stage for a perfect meal. The food is a true highlight. We had the Grilled Black Angus Beef Tenderloin and the Pan Seared Trio of Fish (Barramundi, Mahi-mahi, and Gindara) - both were expertly prepared, incredibly fresh, and bursting with flavor. The blend of Balinese spices and modern presentation is masterful. The service was impeccable—attentive, friendly, and professional without being intrusive. Our server was knowledgeable about the menu and offered excellent recommendations. Whether you're looking for a romantic dinner or a celebratory meal, Nelayan delivers an exceptional, 5-star experience. It’s more than just a meal; it’s a beautiful moment by the sea. Highly, highly recommended! We will definitely be back."

"I only had fries, fresh fruit and Bali coffee but super relaxed friendly people and best spot sitting up on the wee deck watching the world go by. Wish we had longer to really try the food."

"Wow! What a lovely place Nelayan was! Without too much effort we asked if we could book a table for 35 people for the evening (yes big family wedding party) and they had absolutely no problems! It was awesome! We all sat down in one big long table, and ordered just about everything on the menu! I had a lychee martini which was ‘bang on’ delicious and perfect for the evening dining on the beach. The green curry was amazing and the chocolate desert was insanely good! It was so good that we couldnt stop thanking the Chefs and staff at the end of the night. Service was fast, attentive and very good. Easily kept a split tab going and wasnt a problem for the staff to keep up. Very friendly crew and amazing dining experience on the beach while the cooling evening breeze went through. Well done to everyone at Nelayan and thank you for a great evening!"
