#8 on Bali's Top 10 — Kerobokan
Metis
French-Mediterranean dining overlooking a lily pond — a quieter, classier register than Bali's beach-club scene
Metis trades beach views for a lily pond and garden setting, with French-Mediterranean food and a noticeably calmer, more refined atmosphere than the beach-club circuit nearby. It's a reliable pick for a genuinely relaxed, unhurried dinner.
The food
French technique with Mediterranean flavors — a straightforward, well-executed menu rather than an experimental one, with a wine list to match.
The setting
The lily pond and garden setting give it a calmer register than most of the Seminyak/Kerobokan restaurant scene — genuinely good for a quiet, unhurried dinner rather than a scene.
Practical tips
- —Request a table with a pond view when booking.
- —Good pick for a calmer evening if you've already done the beach-club circuit and want something quieter.
- —The wine list is a real strength — worth asking staff for a pairing recommendation.
