Naughty Nuri's Warung Ubud: Legendary BBQ Pork Ribs & Iconic Martinis

Along Jl. Raya Sanggingan in Ubud stands a warung whose name is practically synonymous with “pork ribs” in Bali: Naughty Nuri’s Warung. Opened in 1995 by Isnuri (Nuri) and her New York-born husband, it grew from a humble roadside stall into a must-visit culinary icon. It sits just steps from the Blanco Museum, making it easy to combine with an art stroll around the Sanggingan-Campuhan area.

BBQ Pork Ribs Worth Queuing For

The undisputed star is the pork ribs — smoked then grilled over an open charcoal pit at the front of the warung, glazed in a sweet-savoury house BBQ sauce. The meat falls off the bone, the edges caramelised and faintly smoky. A portion runs about Rp140,000–180,000, filling enough to share or to devour solo when truly hungry. Add rice and a stir-fried vegetable on the side.

• Pork ribs: the legendary dish, grilled fresh out front.
• Satay & grilled pork: alternatives if you don't want a full rack.
• Stir-fry & rice: essential sides.

Iconic Martinis & a Buzzing Crowd

Beyond the ribs, Naughty Nuri’s is famous for its hand-shaken martinis, once praised by a celebrated critic as among the best in Asia. Served bitingly cold in a plain glass, they cost around Rp90,000–130,000. The vibe is pure warung: long wooden benches, grill smoke, and a crowd of travellers from everywhere. Don't come expecting calm — come for the buzz that is precisely the appeal.
