At a glance
Sardine Restaurant is a seafood and fine dining venue on Jl. Petitenget in Kerobokan Kelod, close to the Petitenget and Seminyak dining area. Its cooking centres on fresh seafood, seasonal ingredients and a modern Mediterranean approach, with menus designed for both relaxed daytime meals and more refined evening dining.
The restaurant’s setting is a key part of the experience. Dining spaces look across rice paddies, bringing open views and surrounding greenery into the meal. The terrace provides an outdoor option with a calm, spacious atmosphere for lunch or dinner, while the main dining setting offers a warmer backdrop for evening meals and special occasions.
Lunch focuses on fresh seasonal food, local seafood and tropical flavours. Dinner moves towards a more polished Mediterranean style, pairing seafood with balanced flavours and carefully selected ingredients. Sardine also presents handmade pasta with seasonal produce, a vegetarian set menu, and a drinks selection that includes cocktails and house-made refreshments. These choices give the restaurant scope beyond seafood while keeping fresh produce and Mediterranean influence central to the menu.
The atmosphere suits several types of occasions. Couples can choose the evening setting or terrace for a relaxed date night, while families can settle in for a seafood meal with a rice-field outlook. The restaurant also caters to celebrations and private gatherings, with event arrangements intended for intimate weddings, milestone occasions and other bespoke soirées. Live entertainment and themed events form part of the wider programme, although the format can vary.
Sardine fits travellers seeking a scenic restaurant in Petitenget rather than a casual beachside café. The combination of ocean-to-table cooking, open-air rice-field views and an easygoing fine dining style makes it suitable for a leisurely lunch, a considered dinner or a special occasion. For travellers arranging a Bali food itinerary alongside time in Lombok and the Gilis, it offers a distinctly Petitenget dining experience with seafood at its centre.
