The downsides

• Limited hours: closed on Sundays and not open on Friday lunchtime. Do not plan a Friday lunch here.
• No published item prices: 2026 sources only give ranges (IDR 15,000-35,000 in March, IDR 15,000-25,000 in detikBali on 18 June 2026). Check the menu board before you order.
• Drinks are relatively pricey: about IDR 14,000, almost as much as the cheapest bowl.
• No pork noodles: if you want Chinese-style char siu bakmi, this is not the place.
• Busy at lunch: BaliInYourHands noted the shop is often full at lunchtime; come before 12pm or after 2pm.
