balcony070505.jpgThe Balcony Restaurant is located on Jl. Benesari between Brasil Restaurant and the beach, across from the Circle K. I spent a very pleasant hour watch a safari movie about a group of guys from Californian who came out to Indonesia and camped on a remote island looking for the surf. The Balcony has a menu which is reasonably priced (my ahi ahi steak was 30,000rp) and is cool to sit in. I have passed this place a hundred times before but for some reason never checked it out.

ahi070505.jpgLocated on the second floor, The Balcony is not so affected by motorbike noise as other street-side places on Jl. Benesari. The natural wood roof goes to a point, the place is breezy without being windy and they have a nice bar. The large video screen is great for in-house entertainment. There is enough seating for about 50 people, meaning this is a small restaurant but with good food. My dinner was exquisitely done. The menu is divided into: Morning of the Earth (breakfast), Breakfast al la Carte, Sandwiches, Starters & Snacks, Soups, Salads, Pastas, Balcony Specials, Fish & Seafood, Indonesian Food, Desserts.

Among the Balcony Specials are: Giant Mixed Meat Skewer (68,000rp), Jumbo Rump Steak (68,000) and Wienerschnitzel (30,000rp). You can find better deals on food on Poppies I & II and also on Jl. Benesari, but the setting and entertainment, not to mention the food itself won't be as good.

Hi Nick,

this restaurant is next to Un’s Hotel where we will stay 3 weeks in October. Unfortunately there is no comment about this hotel on baliblog.com. Do you know it or have some photos?

Or anyone who reads this?
