    It had been 5 years since I last visited Bali Restaurant. And it is still a 3 star experience. If you want value, lunch combo is the way to go. We shared: Golden Curry Beef Brisket with Rice ($8.99) - A lot of curry Char Grilled Lemongrass Pork Chop with Rice ($8.99) - Great Portion with 2 Chops Aromatic Soy Chicken with Rice ($8.99) - Meh, Chicken has this funny texture and bland Pad Thai ($8.50) - Meh Pork Meat Balls with Rice Vermicelli in Broth ($8.50) - OK Mango Salad - Meh Spring Roll - Fresh and Crispy My previous review still stands. If you here for authentic South East Asian food, you will be disappointed. Missing the intense flavour and the extensive use of herbs and spices. You find most of the clients here are Chinese and quite a lot of seniors during lunch hours. But if you here for just some filling food then you will be OK.

    Love the pad Thai

    Came here before 12 on a Sunday. Seated right away We ordered the lunch sets One pad Thai with green mango salad and one hainan chicken rice with spring rolls My green mango salad came first it tasted very strong! Not necessarily a bad thing..... And it doesn't look like green mango to me? I don't know..... Spring roll was standard. Good that it's piping hot. On to the main course My pad Thai..... It's actually one of the best that I've tasted. The noodles was al dente, chicken wasn't dry, appropriate amount of sourness, can use more shrimps though. So I really like it! But hainan chicken was disappointing. Not only did it take super long to come out (maybe ten minutes after I've finished my pad Thai, yeah so my friend watched me eat and I watched him eat...), but it also didn't taste great. Bland, not hot enough. Almost feel like it's microwaved.... My frd also said the grated ginger that came with the rice was bland and just salty but not fragrant. So he won't be coming again...... I wanna come again but maybe not by myself. Btw it seems like they have 10% off if pay by cash.

    Singapore laksa

    3.5 stars. Came here for lunch with the family and we enjoyed it. The menu didn't really seem Indonesian, and I don't know if anything was particularly authentic, but I thoroughly enjoyed my Singapore laksa and would order it again. The soya chicken and crispy chicken were also very yummy. The milk tea was delicious, but when my husband tried to order another, they had run out. The only thing I didn't enjoy was the spring rolls - seemed like they had come from a frozen package.

    This restaurant is alright. I've been here a couple of times for lunch because it's close to where I work, it's cheap, and it's quick. The service is a hit or miss depending on which server you get. I always see the same employees there each time I visit. One Asian lady is always really nice and approachable where as the other older Asian lady is the opposite. I specifically remember one instance where I asked for a split bill, the older Asian lady pretty much said no and wouldn't allow it... She was very rude and awkward about it. Not sure why, as I've had no troubles splitting bills before in past visits (with the other server). The food is decent. I've tried a few of the lunch specials: curry dishes, pad thai, and Singapore laksa. They are all generously portioned with great prices. Nothing really stood out to me too much but you get what you pay for. My favourites would be the green and golden curry dishes as they have much more flavour than the others. I would not recommend the Singapore laksa - this was super bland and just didn't taste good in my opinion. Overall, I would probably come back even though I'm not the biggest fan just because it's convenient for me. You can get a pretty good deal here, especially during lunch hours!

    The Singapore Laksa arrived in a tilted bowl, which looked nice, but it meant that there were fewer contents in it because if there were a lot, it would have spilled out on the side. There were two types of noodles in the laksa -- a vemicelli-type and a yellow thick noodle. This wasn't authentic Singapore Laksa. The broth was creamy but wasn't even spicy enough. There was one shrimp, two pieces of fish, some chicken chunks, and tofu puffs in total in the bowl. The soup broth also wasn't hot enough -- tasted lukewarm. This was just not a good "Singapore Laksa" at all. It was like a watered down and Chinese-style version of what the real thing should have been. They ran out of the "Aromatic Soy Chicken with rice" so I ordered the "Char-grilled Lemongrass Chicken" instead. The chicken was served separately from the rice and I actually really liked the Char-grilled lemongrass chicken. It was very meaty, moist, tender, and crispy on its grilled parts. It went well with the watery peanut sauce too. The rice was slightly flavoured and had some dried fruit in it as well. This item tasted decent but for $10.99, I'm not sure if it was really worth it.

    Tiny bowl of tom yum soup. I mean a few scoops.

    Decor is A rated, but then for a restaurant that's so secluded, it's a bit weird actually. It doesn't match the exterior. And you are certainly paying extra money for the decoration. 4 stars anyway ok. Location is bad. This plaza is hard to access. If you missed the intersection, there's no other way but U-turn. 2.5 stars. Parking is really bad. It's a Wednesday night, I had to go around the plaza twice to find a spot. It's believed that the spots were all taken by Kim Tao's customers, a hot pot restaurant next door. 1 star. Or is there a "no star"? Serving... Three of the four items came around the same time, the fourth item, a curry, came after i had finished the laksa (noodle soup). I think this is what everyone hates the most I assume. 2 stars. The first impression from the menu is, WHOA EXPENSIVE!!! And then..... WOW REALLY EXPENSIVE!!! Value wise, this place gets 2 stars. Food... Pad Thai 3 stars. Laksa gets 2 stars unless the name is changed to "laksa wannabe". Hainan chicken rice 3.5 stars. Golden curry brisket 3.5 stars. Ok so food gets an average of 3 stars quality wise, but when the prices are factored in, boing boing.... down to 2 stars. So 2.5 stars in general, but with this system there's no half a star, and I really would lose sleep if I gave it 3 stars.

    Came here on a Friday afternoon. The place was fairly busy. Small and cozy place run by Chinese. Lunch comes with option of soup, spring rolls or mango salad. We went with the mango salad. They loaded it with sugar so it tasted really sweet but other than that it was pretty average. Green curry with beef and rice $9.99 - the curry had a nice kick of spiciness to it. The beef was more like beef tendon. The sauce tasted decent with the rice. Nothing spectacular though. Oxtail in wine sauce with rice $14.99 - oxtail was not that tender and was cut really small. Pretty disappointed in the dish. If you want good oxtail dish then try the one at Fav Cafe. Overall a pretty average place for a meal.

    Pad thai
    A Y.

    Authentic Indonesian or not, I am a fan of the Bali Restaurant Reason #1: Nice and relaxing ambiance. The colours white and dark brown are the theme colours in both the interior decoration and the plate setting (see pictures). The design is clean, bright, contemporary, yet unpretentious. White furniture can be tricky if it is not kept clean. Bali does a fabulous job in keeping the white furniture bright and sparkle. I think Bali can be an inexpensive date restaurant for dinner. This has scored a big plus with my BF. Reason #2: Reasonably priced lunch combos with reasonable portion. We ordered a beef noodle, a pad thai, and a golden curry dish from the lunch special menu. All the dishes had sufficient portion for lunch. My mom said her beef noodle tasted good. The golden curry dish was spicy. It was my second favourite dish of the meal. It will be our go-to curry from now on. The pad thai tasted okay/average. I liked that it didn't taste like ketchup, and it was not saucy. The best dish, however, was the complimentary tom yam soup. It tasted complex, herbal, and it had heat. Mom totally loved it. Reason #3: Services was friendly and polite. We arrived early, so the restaurant wasn't busy. Needless to say, the food arrived quickly. Pet Peeve: I consider the cuisine here as South East Asian instead of Indonesian. This is because most of the choices in the lunch menu are not Indonesian.

    Chicken skewers
    Melissa L.

    Came on a Monday night with my dad and there were a few tables filled. I ordered the dinner combo with Tom yum soup, chicken skewers and the pad Thai with chicken and shrimp. My dad ordered the hainan chicken and rice also with Tom yum soup and beef skewers instead. The Tom yum soup was nice and hot with a good amount of spicy and sour taste. My dad and I had one of each of the chicken and beef skewers which were delicious along with the peanut sauce that came with it. The pad Thai I got had a good flavour but the noodles were just slightly harder than I would've liked. I'm not sure if they can do it spicy as I forgot to ask but I think a little heat would've made it even better. I tried the chicken from my dads dish which was juicy and delicious as well. He said the rice was also very aromatic and went along with the chicken great. They also gave complimentary dessert. A little bowl of sago dessert soup with red bean and some other stuff (ja ja in Chinese). Overall the food was definitely good. The service was also good. The ladies were helpful and friendly although when my dad's dish came there was a little piece of hair in it. The waitress apologized and was going to change it but my dad said it was fine and just didn't eat the piece that touched the hair (I think he was hungry...). They gave us a 10% discount on the bill as well which I wasn't expecting. The total came to about $29 which was reasonable for the amount of food. I will def be back to try the curry and Indonesian chicken that other Yelpers talked about.

    Grilled Chicken

    Would definitely recommend my friends to bring her family to Bali for dinner. Many set dinner are quite nice. We order Set for 4 tonight. Grilled chicken and/or Hoi Nan Chicken are the Bali's signature dish.

    Singapore style chicken and rice - Same quality as if I were to eat at a reputable food court store (not bad, but not particularly good)
    Karen L.

    My parents and I love Singapore/ Thai food - and through their friend's recommendation, we have decided to give Bali restaurant a try! The staff are very friendly, and the atmosphere/ overall cleanliness of the place are fairly good. We looked into the menu and were quite shocked at the prices - but that did not stop us from ordering, as we are strong believers that if the food and service excel customers' expectation, then the premium on the price will be worth it. Unfortunately, we do not see how the quality of the food and service can justify their over priced menu: 1. A simple Singapore styled chicken and rice would take them 45 mins to prepared, and a grilles pork chop rice take longer... 2. The combo of chicken and rice really do not taste any different than any other places... not bad, but not good either 3. The soups are nothing special, especially when you have tried authentic Thai soup elsewhere, you can tell the difference

The roast chicken rice was also perfectly seasoned and tender, paired nicely with the flavoured rice. I'd come back just for the roast chicken dish. The char kway teow was not shy of wok hei, a classic. Kaya toast was delish as always but wish the toast was cut thinner. I was looking forward to the roti prata and curry chicken, it was good but not great. The curry reminded me of Vietnamese curry. The prata was on the oily side but very flakey.

We were able to order right away and our drinks and ice water were brought out. Our food was brought out fairly quickly, all of it being hot. Roti is a must order item!

Service was attentive with the servers checking on us every so often and clearing empty plates away. When we were done eating, the server packed up our leftovers for us instead of just giving us containers. You can pay by card or cash, but just be advised that they do not accept $100 bills.

We had the chicken and shrimp Pad Thai and the Nasi Lemak Ayam Goring. We really enjoyed the fried chicken, coconut rice of the Nasi Lemak Ayam Goring, and the amount of spice in the sambal onion and anchovies. The noodles in the Pad Thai had a firm texture which we liked, but for me the sauce was a bit sweet. If coming to the restaurant from 6pm on a weekend, the parking lot is very busy and you could be circling for a parking spot and having to move around vehicles that are double parked for take-out orders.

The rice was not very fragrant but the curry was very rich so the smell kind of made up for it. It was not super tasty but was above average & moist enough. The curry was tasty & very rich but had a lot of bone fragments & was annoying to eat; the majority of mouthfuls had at least 1 bone fragment. It is a bad idea to put the curry & peanuts in your mouth at the same time. Sambal had a lot of ikan bilis with some onion but little liquid. It was pretty good though if you like to put it as a paste on your rice you will be disappointed. Keropok was very crispy & pretty tasty.

The only thing I would knock is the IndoMie cup portions are small when the food tastes so good! Even though it was a jumbo cup, it was only slightly bigger than the drink cup. The shop feels more like a convenience store so there's not much ambience. The service was quick and friendly for takeout. Skip it or hit it?

I don't recall NaiNai being here the last time I visited so I gave it a shot. I went with in my mind the safe option of Stir Fried Rice Noodles (Kwetiau Goreng) which is a flat noodle. The dish reminded me of pad seew which I love. I ordered it with the chicken and overall the dish was flavourful with a slightly sweet taste from the sweet soy sauce. Again it reminded me a lot of pad seew and I would put it above a food court joint like Thai Express but not quite as good as some of the pad seew at some of the Thai restaurants in the city. Service was friendly and they give you one of those buzzers to alert you when your food is ready. It was pretty busy when I went so my food took more than 10 minutes to be ready but not too bad considering how many people were ahead of me. Overall not a bad choice if you're looking to grab something in the food court. Looking forward to coming back and trying some of their other offerings.
