Review of Warung Makan Samania: A Cozy Dining Experience in Gianyar

Warung Samania, Gianyar

Dewi

Hey there! So, I recently checked out this cozy little diner called Warung Makan Samania located at Jl. Mawar No. 10, Sukawati, Gianyar. I gotta say, it was a pretty chill experience overall. The food got a solid rating of 3.8/5.0, but the service was a bit on the slower side with a 3.2/5.0. The atmosphere was decent too, sitting at 3.5/5.0. Just a heads up, if you’re planning to dine in for dinner, expect to spend around Rp75,000-100,000 per person.

So, I ordered a bunch of stuff like the Grilled Chicken Set, Sweet and Sour Squid, and the Grilled Fish Set. Everything was tasty! I even came across a review that said, “the food is delicious, and the delivery was super fast.” But, they also mentioned that the squid was a bit chewy and had a slight fishy taste. Another person raved about the place saying, “the food is really good, and the prices are affordable.” Can’t argue with that!

After catching a Kecak dance at 7:30 PM, we were on the hunt for a nearby restaurant, and Google pointed us to this spot. We were a bit worried about hygiene and taste since we’re not locals, but thankfully, everything met our expectations. We ordered the pork rib set and seafood set, which was enough for five adults. The food came out super fast, but we did have a little hiccup when it came time to pay since no one was at the front desk. Oh, and they have a kid’s play area near the garden, which my 3-year-old loved. It’s simple and clean, perfect for little ones!

However, not everyone had the same luck. One couple mentioned they had to wait over 45 minutes for just two dishes during lunch, and they found the taste to be average. But hey, that’s the risk you take sometimes, right?

Overall, I really enjoyed my time at Warung Makan Samania. The food was great, the prices were right, and it’s a nice spot for families with kids. I’d definitely come back here if I find myself in Bali again!

Ilham

As I stepped into Warung Makan Samania, located at Jl. Mawar No. 10 in Sukawati, Gianyar, I was immediately enveloped by a warm and inviting atmosphere. The rustic decor, adorned with traditional Balinese elements, sets the perfect backdrop for a culinary adventure that promises to be both delightful and culturally enriching.

The menu boasts a variety of mouthwatering dishes, but I was particularly drawn to their signature offerings: the Grilled Chicken Package, Sweet and Sour Squid, and Grilled Fish Package. Each dish is a testament to the rich flavors of Indonesian cuisine, and I couldn’t wait to dive in.

One of the highlights of my visit was the Grilled Chicken. The meat was tender and infused with a smoky flavor that only a perfect grill can achieve. As I savored each bite, I could understand why one visitor remarked, “The food was great and the place so friendly; the owner is very humble and welcoming.” This sentiment echoed throughout the restaurant, as the staff treated every guest like family.

After enjoying a mesmerizing Kecak dance performance nearby, my companions and I were eager to find a place to satisfy our hunger. Google recommended Warung Makan Samania, and I must say, it did not disappoint. One reviewer mentioned, “Food taste good, we ordered pork rib set and seafood set, sufficient for 5 adults.” The portions were generous, and the flavors were spot on, making it a perfect spot for families and friends to gather.

While waiting for our food, I noticed a small play area for kids, which was a delightful surprise. One parent shared, “They do have a kid play area near the garden which my 3yo boy enjoyed.” It was simple yet clean, allowing parents to relax while their little ones played. This kid-friendly aspect truly enhances the dining experience, making it a great choice for families.

As I indulged in the Sweet and Sour Squid, I found the balance of flavors to be exquisite. However, I did hear some feedback about the fried rice being a bit salty and the sweet and sour chicken leaning more towards sour. But hey, every dish has its quirks, right? The overall vibe of the place is cozy, making it an ideal spot for a casual dinner.

With a food rating of 3.8 out of 5, and a service rating of 3.2, it’s clear that Warung Makan Samania is a beloved local gem. The prices are incredibly reasonable, averaging around Rp75,000-100,000 per person, which is a steal for the quality of food and experience offered.

In conclusion, if you’re looking to immerse yourself in the culinary culture of Bali, Warung Makan Samania is a must-visit. The combination of delicious food, friendly service, and a welcoming atmosphere makes it a perfect spot to create lasting memories with loved ones. I can’t wait to return for another round of seafood delights!
