KALA: The Fresh Flavor of Greece! Now open in Bali
In Bali, the endless beaches and vibrant sunsets aren’t the only things to savor. Nestled near the famous Padang-Padang Beach is KALA Uluwatu, a stylish new restaurant bringing the fresh, bold flavors of Greece to Bali’s booming culinary scene. Whether you’re a foodie, a traveler, or someone who loves good vibes and great food, Kala is a must-visit.
Greek cuisine is all about letting fresh ingredients shine. The combination of juicy, grilled meats, tangy olive oil, and refreshing herbs like oregano makes every dish a delight. Whether it’s a warm piece of freshly baked bread dipped in olive oil, or a savory lamb kofta packed with spices, Greek food has a way of comforting your soul while keeping things light and flavorful.
At KALA, you’ll find these signature elements transformed into dishes that are both familiar and exciting. Every meal is designed with a simple goal in mind: making you feel good. Think zesty lemon, fresh seafood, and crisp veggies, all prepared with the kind of care that lets the ingredients speak for themselves. Greek food is all about balance, and KALA nails it with dishes that feel both indulgent and refreshing.
KALA Uluwatu: A Culinary Journey in Bali
Located just a short walk from the breathtaking Padang-Padang Beach, KALA blends the rich traditions of Greek cuisine with Bali’s laid-back, tropical vibe.

Their team, led by Head Chef Zarrukh Farkhodovich, brings over a decade of fine-dining experience, ensuring that every plate is crafted with care. The open kitchen concept invites guests to watch their meals being prepared over a wood fire grill, adding an interactive, homey feel to the experience. With its wooden tables, soft lighting, and rattan chairs, KALA is the perfect blend of modern chic and Bali’s signature island charm.
