    We were in Bali around the same time last year (September of 2019) with our folks and were staying at the Hyatt Regency at Sanur. We discovered this place on the second night of our 7-night stay there, after a pretty unpleasant experience at the other Indian restaurant, bang opposite Ganesha's by the name of Gateway of India (more about them sometime later, but these guys are in a different league compared to them and in the same price range). We ended up dining there thrice during our stay there and were pleasantly surprised every time. The ambiance of the restaurant is excellent, though not air conditioned, the place was cool courtesy the water-bodies inside the restaurant and the fact that everything is quite spaced out. The highlights of this place however were the: -- Food: some of the best Indian food we've ever had (including what we've had in India) - the taste was excellent without being too greasy or heavy and the portions & presentation were really good too. -- Service: exceptionally pleasant & warm service extended by Caroline & her team (we also met two of their chefs from India) and they were all a pleasure to deal with. in fact on one evening, when they had a classical Balinese dance performance, they got the performers to come and have photographs clicked with my dad-in-law, who was absolutely overjoyed - these small things can make all the difference :) All-in-all, we loved Ganesha and while we only tried their Sanur outlet, am assuming their other restaurants would be living-up to similarly high-standards

    Great food! Great service! Great atmosphere! I really enjoyed eating at this restaurant. It perfectly satisfied my craving for Indian food. The ambience of the place is very nice and comfortable. It's expensive for Bali, you get satisfaction in bali only by eating here.

  • 4/5 Николай �. 4 years ago on Google
    (Translated by Google) Perfect place! They ate rice, Alo Gobbi, Eggplant, garlic and cheese nana. The best rice that was eaten in Bali - steamed basmati with greens .. pleasure in the language. To the best of hot sauces. Overeat together. Pleasant, friendly waiters. I really didn’t like the font of the name of the dishes on the menu, which was extremely inconvenient, it is clear that they tried to stylize it as an oriental one, but something is too much, the eye can be broken. (Original) Отличное место! Ели рис, Ало Гобби, Баклажаны, гарлик и чиз наны. Лучший рис, которые ел на Бали - пропаренный басмати с зеленью..удовольствие на языке. В меру острые соусы. Объелись вдвоем. Приятные, приветливые официанты. Ооочень не понравился шрифт названия блюд в меню, предельно неудобный, видно, что пытались стилизовать под восточный, но что-то чересчур, глаз можно сломать.

    Great food! Great service! Great atmosphere! I really enjoyed eating at this restaurant. It perfectly satisfied my craving for Indian food. The ambience of the place is very nice and comfortable. It felt romantic almost (for dinner). It's expensive for Bali. Not much cheaper than if I had Indian food in Canada.

    10000/10 experience 🙌 I came here with my husband and we had no idea how huge the portion is. So the staff / manager was very honest about the portion is, recommending that we shouldn’t order too much. The staff also explained very detail on what comes inside the meal. The chicken biryani is good, the curry flavour is strong, rogan josh is excellent & the lamb is very tender! Overall the service was EXCELLENT, def will be back!! Super worth it 🔥

    (Translated by Google) I am writing for people like me)) We went to this restaurant after reading the reviews. Before that, they were not familiar with Indian cuisine, so the order was made according to the recommendations of guests. Total taken: Murg tikka is a piece fried fish Mahi tikka - tandoori chicken Ganesha’s specials - lentil-based sauce Saada Cawal Basmati - Just Basmati Rice And if everything is clear with meat, then for people like me I explain that rice is eaten with gravy (ganesha was in a hurry) see photo. For dessert, they also took saffron ice cream - Kesar Pusta on the recommendation. At the end they brought a complement, fried pies. In addition there was beer and little water. All together came out 592. Is it expensive or cheap for you to decide)) Satisfied with the dinner 😌👍 (Original) Пишу для таких как я)) Пошли в этот ресторан почитав отзывы. С индийской кухней до этого были не знакомы, поэтому заказ делали по рекомендациям гостей. Итого взяли: Murg tikka - это рыба, жаренная кусочками Mahi tikka - курица в соусе тандури Ganesha’s specials - соус на основе чечевицы Saada Cawal Basmati - просто рис басмати И если с мясом все понятно, то для таких как я объясняю что рис едят с подливкой (ганеша спешил) смотри фото. На десерт тоже по рекомендации взяли мороженное из шафрана - Kesar Pusta. В конце принесли комплемент, жареные пирожки. Кроме этого было пиво и маленькая вода. Все вместе вышло 592. Дорого это или дёшево решать вам)) Ужином остались довольны 😌👍

    First thing is I want to rate this restaurant more than 5*. Ambience was cool. Service was very good as everyone greets with smile and serves very humble. And the best part is food. U just can't get such taste anywhere in singapore also. Loved the food. First time I forgot to take pics while eating and I just wanted to feel the taste. It was amazing. Kudos to the cook.

    Went there on a weekday .. place was quiet but the ambience was very nice. So was the live music. The food was amazing. We ordered assortment of dishes and every single dish was cooked well. The meat was tender and cooked to perfection. The vegetarian dishes tasted like we get back home. We thoroughly enjoyed our dinner and would certainly recommend to give the place a try if you are in Sanur

    The Place in Bali Sanur area is must visit being on Bali Tour. For Vegetarian: they have many options. Food : very nice , Indian taste. Very good quality Portion : serves 3-4 , good amount of portion Service : the staff is very nice, attentive and prompt. While returning back to India, we had ordered Aloo paratha. Again good taste, quality and quntity was super.

    Five stars was easy and I'm not one who gives them out just for showing up. Absolutely delicious food. Ice tea with sugar on the side. 👍 Prompt and friendly service. Affordably priced. I've eaten at Indian restaurants all over and this is second to none.

  • 5/5 Ruben P. 1 year ago on Google
    What an amazing place to find great Indian food. The chef and few staff members are Indians that makes it easy to understand, and the taste is really authentic Indian, they serve both south and north indian menu and have separate seating for veg and nonveg. The place is clean and staff are super friendly. Good clean washroom as well. The place is mostly visited by Indian tourists and it stands as refuge for those carving for home food while exploring the beautiful Bali. They have 3 branches spread in Bali so fooding becomes easy. One may find it but pricey, but it's worth it.

    Have been here more than 5 times.. tried different dishes.. some were good,others were not.. nice location, easy to find..a bit expensive with not so tasty food.. on Sundays they have buffet lunch which I would rate 5 stars..

    (Translated by Google) The sercive was very friendly and helpful. The food was first class. Aromatic, as you would expect from Indian cuisine. Large portions, a dessert would have been too good. (Original) Der Sercive war sehr freundlich und hilfsbereit. Das Essen erstklassig. Aromatisch, wie man es von der indischen Küche erwartet. Große Portionen, ein Dessert wäre zuvie gewesen.

    Fantastic Indian restaurant with amazing food, lots of choices and all (what we tried( bsolutely delicious. Its a nice and serene scenery. Trully worth visiting. We were helped by Denpal, who is the manager, and he advised us through the menu. We had samosas, chicken 65, chicken tika, lamb vindalo, butter chicken and a chicken biryani. We were with 3 people, but could easily feed 4 or 5 eaters. The naan is also recommended. Lovely place which is now in my favorites in Sanur for sure

  • 1/5 Stu M. 3 months ago on Google • 5 reviews New
    The worst service of any restaurant I have ever been to, you have to walk to the rear of the restaurant to find a waiter to ask for drinks, cutlety or napkins, even when they try to deliver mains the entree dishes are still there and the head waiter has to call staff who have walked past 50 times and ignored you to clear the table. Most patrons walking up to ask for everything whilst the staff chat away looking at you whilst ignoring you. A shame as food was good but experience ruined by the worst service ever. Something wrong here as they didn't even clean the bar just stacked up empty bottles an glasses.

  • 4/5 Axel C. 2 years ago on Google
    Went for the buffet on Sunday. Good-value offering. The quality of the food on offer is good. However, the selection of dishes was not quite to my taste. Everything was very mild (to appeal to the masses, presumably) whereas I prefer spicier curry.

  • 4/5 Ekaterina Z. 1 year ago on Google

  • 5/5 Dewi S. 1 year ago on Google
    Back to this place after two years and the foods still taste so good! We ordered Saag Paneer, Rogan Josh, and Garlic Naan Bread for two persons. The portion is generous. They have good staffs and spacious parking area that is very rare in Sanur.

  • 5/5 Naresh P. 1 year ago on Google
    Awesome and Good taste for Indian food specially for the Vegetarians. The best taste we ever found. We were 28 in group all Lions from India, (Siliguri). This is a perfect place for Indian taste, staff are polite nice ambience. The much needed papad was here...very crispy

    (Translated by Google) Excellent Indian restaurant a chain 7 branches in Indonesia Little things: fresh towels on arrival, small snack until lunch I recommend We shared the idlys input. Rice with green peas, okra (delicious) and butter chicken. Obviously the food is a bit heavy when it comes to bread, rice and sauce but really very tasty great service Beer prost was 2 for 30k IDR 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼 (Original) Excellent resto indien d’une chaînes de 7 succursales en Indonésie Petites attentions: serviettes fraîches à l’arrivée, petites grignotines en attendant le repas Je recommande Nous avons partagé les idlys en entrée. Le riz aux pois verts, les okras (succulent) et le poulet au beurre. Évidemment la bouffe est un peu lourde quand on parle de pain, riz et sauce mais vraiment c’était succulent Service super Bière prost était à 2 pour 30k IDR 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼

    I was in Sanur for 12 days and went here for 2 times a day. Right at the center, wonderful ambiance, delicious Indian fare, great service with smiles. Being a vegan and opted for Jain food, they were understanding and extremely accommodating. Right from Chef Debnath to other staff Chitra, Pradnya, Agus, Tari, Putri, Pepe, Maharani to managerial Caroline and Danapal Rawat were warm, personal and friendly - a perfect team at work !!

  • 3/5 Phil G. 11 months ago on Google
    I used to visit the Ubud branch often when I lived there 2019-2022, and always thought the food was amazing. Living in Sanur, this was an obvious choice. Alas, the food was not as amazing as I remember, although still very good by general ‘Indian food in Bali’ standards. The rice, however, is frankly offensively overpriced, even if one portion is enough for 2 people… Oh and the server forgot to bring the glass of water I ordered as a drink. Was my favourite Indian in Ubud, but given this is premium priced, (280k for a single main dish with rice!!!!) I was not amazed in the same way in Sanur…

    Since we can't yet travel overseas, this has satisfied my craving for Indian food. Taste is good, though it's already adjusted to local taste. My lamb roganjosh was not as spicy as what I remember roganjosh used to be in Singapore. Thosai however is thin & crusty, me like! Overall great place, price point is rather steep though.

  • 3/5 Chandra K. 4 years ago on Google
    Good place to eat Indian food. Definitely on the expensive side for the food. The ambience is average. Loud Hindi music is playing all day which is very disturbing while eating & spending some quality time with the family. Food is not bad. Fish Tikka is a must try. Other food are average. The price can be reduced. Can visit again if visiting Sanur.

  • 2/5 Peter P. 4 years ago on Google
    Visited Twice in a week, 1st Time, Fantastic, Food a Bit Pricey 800k IDR for 2... Was not told about the portions, but never mind, we would learn from that for our next trip... The Assistant Manager (Male) was great, friendly and accommodating... All In All A Great Meal and Experience... The Reason for a "Poor" review? We decided to go back again as our First Experience was Great, having not done a review yet, we decided to try again and submit a review... Such a shame that on this visit, the Manager or Supervisor, Assistant named Caroline decided to charge us as per "company Policy" 5k for a bag to take out the remaining foods as we were full.... I asked her politely to observe that we are now spending another 500k IDR and you want to charge 5k for a small bag to carry our food away? She answered yes, and that you will now have to take the receipt and reprint to add the 5k for the bag? Yes... so, after spending 1 Million 300 Thousand over 3 days in this restaurant, its such a shame to reveal a really poor attitude in regards to such a small amount for a bag... I know its petty, but its these simple service steps that keep customers going back? Unfortunately We Will Not... Over 50cents!

    Sunday Buffet 150,000+10%, beverages not included. Very solid Indian food. I lived in Singapore for 5 years near Little India and Ganesha rivals most of the Indian places in Singapore. Great value for money, with solid service, knowledgeable staff, Covid-safe, and easy access. Far and away better than Gateway of India or Queens Tandoor.
