If you’re ever in Bali and craving some seafood, you gotta check out Warung Pak Hadi Chinese & Seafood on Jl. Patih Jelantik No. 102 in Legian. Seriously, this place is a gem! With a solid rating of 4.7/5.0 for food, 4.3/5.0 for service, and a chill atmosphere rated at 4.0/5.0, it’s definitely worth a visit.

I ordered a few dishes like the Nasi Goreng Spesial, Sup Asparagus Kepiting, and Ayam Masak Mentega, and let me tell you, everything was delicious! One reviewer even said, “Best in Bali!! I’ve been eating at this restaurant for 14 years and never dissatisfied!” That pretty much sums it up, right? The soup was tasty, the shrimp were huge, but I did hear someone mention that the sweet and sour sauce could use a bit more kick, and the veggies were a bit crunchy. But hey, that’s just a minor detail!

Another guest mentioned, “I ate two servings of fried rice, which tasted pretty good. The pickled kimchi was especially delicious, slightly sweet and sour, and went well with rice.” I totally agree! The fried rice here is on point. And if you’re into spicy food, one person raved about the Ayam Pedas Manis, saying it’s the best around the area. Can’t wait to try that next time!

What’s cool about this place is that we just stumbled in without checking reviews first, and we were pleasantly surprised by the food and service. The menu is extensive, and everything is quick to prepare. Plus, the prices are super affordable, ranging from Rp25,000-50,000 per person, which is a steal for the quality you get. Just a heads up, though, the orange juice was a bit bland—maybe they just squeezed one orange and added a ton of water!

Overall, it’s a cheap, local warung with a spacious indoor seating area. The fried mushrooms and gurame fish were excellent, while the sautéed veggies were just okay. The service was quick and friendly, and they even speak good English, which is a plus. There’s also off-street bike parking available!

So, if you find yourself in Bali, I’ll definitely be coming back to Warung Pak Hadi. You should too!

Now, I’ve heard mixed reviews about this place, but hey, who doesn’t love a little drama with their dinner? One reviewer said, “I ate here a few times since it is around the corner of my hostel. Clean restaurant with normal priced food. I won’t exaggerate to say that the taste was extraordinary but yes it is a good restaurant to eat in.” Well, that’s like saying your grandma’s cooking is “okay” – we all know it’s a 10/10, but we appreciate the honesty!

Then there was the guy who found three short hairs in his lamb dish. Yikes! He said, “I was shocked as I found 3 short hairs on my lambs, and vegi -> killed my appetite straight away!!” I mean, unless you’re dining with a yeti, that’s not exactly the kind of hair-raising experience you want while eating! But hey, at least he got a free hair-raising story to tell at parties!

On a brighter note, another reviewer mentioned, “cheap, local warung but with pretty big indoor seating area. huge menu and everything is available.” So, if you’re feeling adventurous, you can try everything from fried mushrooms to gurame fish. Just don’t ask for a hairnet – that might be pushing it!

Now, let’s talk about the star of the show: the food! The Nasi Goreng Spesial is like a party in your mouth, and the Sup Asparagus Kepiting? Let’s just say it’s the kind of soup that makes you want to hug the chef. And don’t even get me started on the Ayam Masak Mentega – it’s so buttery, you might just slip off your chair from sheer delight!

As for the service, it’s quick and friendly, which is perfect because who wants to wait for their food when you’re starving like a lion? Plus, they’ve got good English skills, so you won’t have to resort to charades to order your meal. Just don’t try to mime “three short hairs” – that might confuse them!

In conclusion, if you’re in Bali and looking for a place that’s got decent food, a friendly vibe, and a few hair-raising stories, Warung Pak Hadi is your spot. Just remember to check your plate before you dig in – you never know what surprises might be lurking in your lamb!
