A Culinary Adventure at Bandar Tuna Sanur: A Seafood Lover’s Delight in Bali

BANDAR TUNA SANUR, Sanur, Bali

Wahyu

Hey there, fellow foodies! So, I recently checked out this seafood spot called Bandar Tuna Sanur (BTS) located at Jl. By Pass Ngurah Rai No 158A in Sanur, and I gotta say, it was quite the experience! The place has a chill vibe, but the atmosphere is a bit on the lower side with a rating of 3.3/5.0. But hey, it’s all about the food, right?

Speaking of food, I ordered a few dishes like the Tuna Satay, Tuna Jaw Package, and Tuna Breast Package. All of them were pretty tasty! I mean, some folks mentioned that the tuna cut wasn’t the best this time, but my kid loved it, and we’re definitely planning to swing by again. One reviewer even said, “perfect! good taste! thanks!” and I totally get it. The food was deliciously consistent!

Now, let’s talk about some other dishes that people raved about. One visitor said, “Really delicious! The assam tuna, tuna tataki, and coconut soup were favorites. The kids adored the tuna wontons and corn fritters. The kids have even asked to go there again.” Sounds like a hit with the little ones!

Another review caught my eye: “A total hidden gem, this place made me a tuna lover. Really good price for a clean, spacious modern restaurant. Nasi campur tuna, tuna satay, tuna woku, kangkung, tuna meatball dishes are all fantastic and the sweet sambal served goes perfectly well with the meat (it’s like onion jam). Definitely recommend if you are in the Sanur area!!” I mean, who doesn’t love a hidden gem?

But not everyone was a fan. One person said, “Food is not delicious. I cannot eat anything and my friends have to eat all. Fish is not fresh. The soup is like cup noodles soup. No one but us in the restaurant. Not recommended if you visit Bali.” Ouch! That’s a tough review, but it seems like it’s hit or miss for some.

On the flip side, another diner exclaimed, “Literally one of the best tuna steaks I’ve ever had! And sate tuna is amazing as well! Must try! Prices are really comfortable, even though they’ve got 11% extra tax, but it’s still pretty fine. The steak (dada tuna bakar) was large and delicious, you’ll love the local seasonings. And it wasn’t too spicy as I requested. But the only one small concern is they don’t remove the fish scales, so it looks like a steak but when you’re taking a bite, all the scales are going right into your mouth. It’s not a big problem, but it’s weird. So I believe, it’d be quite better if you descale the fish before cooking.”

Overall, I’d say BTS is worth a visit if you’re in Bali. I’ll definitely be back for more tuna goodness! ??

So, let me take you on a little culinary adventure to Bandar Tuna Sanur (BTS) – and no, it’s not a new K-Pop band, but it sure felt like a concert for my taste buds! Located at Jl. By Pass Ngurah Rai No 158A in Sanur, this place is all about tuna, and I was ready to dive in like a dolphin at feeding time.

First off, I tried the Tuna Satay, which is basically like a party on a stick. I mean, who doesn’t love food that you can eat while pretending you’re at a barbecue? The satay was marinated to perfection, and I could almost hear the tuna singing “I Will Survive” as I devoured it. Seriously, it was that good!

Next up was the Tuna Tataki. Now, if you’ve never had tuna that’s fresher than your morning coffee, you’re missing out. It was like the fish had just taken a dip in the ocean and then decided to join me for dinner. I could practically hear it whispering, “Eat me, I’m fabulous!” And let me tell you, it was fabulous. I felt like a fancy food critic, but in reality, I was just a hungry traveler with a fork.

Now, let’s talk about the sambal. Oh boy, the sambal! I tried three different types, and it was like a spicy rollercoaster ride. One was sweet, one was spicy, and the other was like that friend who always shows up uninvited but you love them anyway. I mixed them all together, and it was a flavor explosion that made my taste buds do the cha-cha!

But, not everything was perfect. One reviewer mentioned that the tables could use a little more attention because of the dust from the busy street. I mean, who doesn’t love a little ambiance with their meal? Nothing says “fine dining” like a sprinkle of street dust, right? Just think of it as extra seasoning!

And then there was the Tuna Steak. Let me tell you, it was one of the best tuna steaks I’ve ever had! It was so big that I thought it might have been lifting weights before it got to my plate. But here’s a little tip: if you’re going to serve a steak that looks like it just came from a fish spa, maybe consider descaling it first. I mean, I love a good crunch, but not when it’s fish scales flying into my mouth like confetti!

Overall, BTS is a cozy spot with a chill vibe, perfect for a laid-back dinner. The prices are reasonable, even with the extra tax that sneaks up on you like a ninja. So, if you’re in the mood for some tuna that’ll make you sing and dance, head over to Bandar Tuna Sanur. Just remember to bring your appetite and maybe a napkin or two for those sneaky fish scales!
