Mozaic deserves its accolades and is rightly amongst the best fine dining restaurants in Bali, serving up exciting yet refined fusion cuisine in relaxed surroundings with friendly, smooth service for an unforgettable Michelin-starred experience you’ll not forget anytime soon.

Guests are first welcomed into the lobby for pre-dinner drinks and hors d’ouevres. Once ready, you are led down a candlelit footpath to your table. Dine under the stars and canopy of rainforest trees in their lush garden area, or if the weather is inclement, in the main dining room which is still a beautiful setting with muted warm lighting and touches of Balinese decor.

They offer 2 set course menus to choose from – one which focuses on the local produce of the archipelago (From Our Local Farmers), and the other, a marriage of the world’s best ingredients and local flavours (A Trip Around The World). There is a option to pick either 6 courses or 8 courses for both set menus. If you’re dining with a partner, you should order one of each set menu to get the best of both worlds, as we did.

Every dish was worthy of aplomb, but my main of venison must surely have been one of the highlights. A perfectly cooked piece of meat dressed in a chocolatey local cocoa reduction, juxtaposed against a fresh curry brown butter sauce and crisp curry leaves was an unexpected but absolutely bang on flavour combination.

Taste: 5/5
