    The good chef must have had the night off. I went here because it was the highest rated Indian restaurant in Ubud but was disappointed. The samosas were more dough than filling. And no chutney or tamarind sauce. Just a yoghurt sauce. And the chicken was so salty it was almost inedible. The chai was good so I give it two stars instead of one.

    Amazing food. Mix veg curry and chapathi were really delicious. Prices were very reasonable compared to other Indian restaurants in the neighborhood. Service was little slow but that was compensated with the delicious food :)

    Had high expectations with the ratings here but was utterly disappointed. felt like the chef tried to combine kerala and Balinese cuisine but it was terrible. Paratha was uncooked and everything was too tangy. Only positive was the dhal which was pretty alright.

    Wonderful "home-cooked" syle food at VERY affordable prices. I was missing spices in Balinese cuisine and they didnt disappoint with delicious fresh ingredients prepared in Kerala fashion. 5 stars will be back.

    Dapur Malabar is a hidden gem in Ubud with authentic Indian food! Not an other overpriced tourist trap. Here you will find the real taste of India both veg and non-veg. I highly recommend to eat one of the curry with their ghee roti and a chai tea!

    Had a worst experience here not because of the food but because of that owner way of speaking about india.. I think he forgot that he is also from india.. bro indian people won't expect anything for free in india and I don't think no one cares for 1.50rs if anyone ask for refilling the bottle that's the reason they won't ask for money and that doesn't mean the other person unable to afford that 1.50rs or 20rs for bottle.. refilling the water bottle means they not using plastic multiple times.. if you want to be commercial you can say to customer that they need to pay the money for refilling but you need to comment about Indians as they expect everything for free. I don't think u served free food for anyone, everyone is paying bill even Indians.. we have to respect our mother land... don't disrespect the Indians when you are trying to impress other country people... Not every customer comes to your restaurant for your food but some are coming just because that's a indian restaurant

    I give this place a 5+! Very good food! We had been eating Balinese food for 4 days so we wanted something else... maybe something with a bit more spice in it. We ordered the Meal packs. It includes a great selection of Indian food. Good portions, good price and the food was absolutely delicious! If you have a chance pay a visit to this small warung in a small street close to Ubud art market.

  • 5/5 Joanna K. 5 years ago on Google
    (Translated by Google) We ate there several times, it was tasty, everything fresh, cheap, nice music and a peaceful atmosphere, away from the hustle and bustle. Once we were at lunch time and the waitress was cooking and not the cook, then it did not taste as good as him. I highly recommend! (Original) Jedliśmy tam kilka razy, było smacznie, wszystko świeże, tanio, miła muzyka i spokojna atmosfera, z dala od zgiełku. Raz byliśmy w porze lunchu i gotowala kelnerka a nie kucharz, wtedy nie smakowało tak dobrze jak niego. Bardzo polecam!

    According to a friend, this is where the Indians in Ubud go for Indian food. Most Indian spots here are overpriced, this one is not. And the paratha is my favorite Indian bread in town, to die for. Owner is a good dude and is often cooking at the restaurant himself.

    Good food .. value for money!

  • 2/5 Agus B. 5 years ago on Google
    "Very disappointing " So the positives .... cheap, clean, friendly staff, quick service. Negatives .... the food was terribly bland. We had the samosas (very crunchy/filling flavourless), lentil Dahl (again incredibly bland), pumpkin soup (ok as I asked for it to be spicy, but distinctly average) we had the potato and spinach dish which came as literally boiled potatoes in a watery green soup - nothing like saag aloo) and poppadums (average). The bill only came to 100k for all this but we were very disappointed with the blandness of the food. I feel even with my limited knowledge of how to cook Indian food, I still could have cooked these simple dishes with 100% more flavour. Seasoning is essential! I would never give 1 star unless something was inedible but I can't give more than two.

  • 1/5 Matthieu L. 5 years ago on Google
    (Translated by Google) We ate at this restaurant for lunch. One person to welcome us. We thought the cook was in the back but not at all. After taking the order (many dishes were not available), the receptionist went to the stove to heat the dishes. I find it surprising coming from a restaurant where the first page of the menu describes a passionate cook, but who that day was not there. Weird ... In short, big disappointment. The dishes were lukewarm, lacking in flavor and spice. (Original) Nous avons mangé dans ce restaurant un midi. Une seule personne pour nous accueillir. Nous avions pensé que le cuisinier était à l'arrière mais pas du tout. Après avoir pris commande (beaucoup de plats n'étaient pas disponible) , la réceptionniste est allée aux fourneaux réchauffer les plats. Je trouve cela étonnant venant d'un restaurant ou la 1ere page du menu décrit un cuisinier passionné, mais qui ce jour là n'était pas là. Bizarre... Fin bref, gros déception. Les plats étaient tiède, manquant de saveur et d'épice.

    Came here with my mum. Excellent homely food. Quiet and peaceful, away from the crowds. Not to forget the heavenly Apple pie! And nice songs too!

  • 5/5 Pawan Y. 4 years ago on Google
    Authentic Indian food. The guy is from south India. I've tried couple of Indian places near ubud but this is the best.

    Mutton curry was good chicken was not bad. Ghee rice was good. Veg salad also nice. Fairly priced. Over all good for an indian food.

  • 5/5 nick m. 4 years ago on Google
    The best food that iate from this smallest outfit. Chef is the owner.. obviously he knows his business. Don't go to Ganesha, etc. Come here and you will feel better. Real clean Sattvik food. I can truly say this as a world Traveller from Canada..🕉️✝️✡️🙏🍁👍

  • 5/5 David G. 4 years ago on Google
    Such a hidden gem... The food is so tasty and fresh. Cooked to order by the chef himself. I had the potatoes and the vege samosas and they both blew me away. The place was empty when I walked past but I had a good feeling... It paid off! I'm coming back and recommending it to everyone. Nice quiet alleyway just off the main road

  • 5/5 Kris G. 4 years ago on Google
    (Translated by Google) Lovely couple, and very good food. Meat stewed with spices. And not a sauce thrown at the last moment. We enjoy. A very good place to change a little nasi goreng. (Original) Couple charmant, et très bonne cuisine. La viande bien mijoté avec les épices. Et non une sauce jetée au dernier moment. On se régale. Une très bonne adresse pour changer un peu du nasi goreng.

    This is a breath of fresh air from the touristy main street restaurants. Good food, reasonable price and friendly service. Came here twice and left happy and satisfied always.

  • 5/5 Paris M. 4 years ago on Google
    such a dainty, magical little spot, tucked away from the noisy main street. everything about my food was perfect. the quantity, but more importantly, the QUALITY. not only was the food fresh, but the flavours made my tastebuds happier than anything I've eaten in a long while. everything is sourced locally, crazy cheap and I feel it's a perfect place to find some peace in amongst all the hustle and bustle. HIGHLY recommend. you'd be a fool not to stop!! thankyou for everything 💛💛💛

    Delicious food with love. I went to this place today with my family. The food exceeded my expectation. I ordered vegetable curry, dal with cepati. Super tasty. Indian home style cooking. We will return again. Thank you so much.

  • 5/5 Abby M. 4 years ago on Google
    Holy WOW! Cute little (5 tables) restaurant! Had two of the cold ginger drinks, and ordered the popadom, veg curry and appam (fermented coconut pancakes similar to roti yet WAY different) with chickpea curry! Food did take awhile to come out so we ordered a large Bintang., when the food came everything was so fresh and different then anything we’ve had before, blew us out of the water. Definitely a must have in Ubud!!!!

  • 2/5 abhina s. 4 years ago on Google
    The food tasted nothing like Indian food, let alone Malabar cusine. Very disappointed with the quality of Kerala porotta.

  • 3/5 Gabriele S. 4 years ago on Google
    The chef is nice. Food is good and tasty, service is fine.

  • 4/5 Neju N. 4 years ago on Google
    Had the real Kerala cuisine in ubud. But the chicken curry was thin gravy. The service was good.

  • 2/5 Yulia 4 years ago on Google • 60 reviews
    Price and quality are not proportional. If you want a really Indian forge and delicious food, then I would not recommend this establishment.

👍 Ordinary food in a spectacular location, in the middle of rice paddy. The crispy duck is really crispy, a bit too dry. The sate lilit is delicious. The gurami goreng bit bland / tasteless. Nor the sauce / sambal nor the fish have any taste. It also would be better if they have soup in their menu to...
