Bali Lax The Garden Indonesian Restaurant Shinjuku Tokyo

Bali Lax The Garden Indonesia Restaurant, located in West Shinjuku (Nishi-Shinjuku), is one of the best Indonesian restaurants in Tokyo. Inside Bali Lax, the restaurant has authentic Balinese décor with water features and some individual Balinese huts for private dining.

I have now dined at Bali Lax 3 times and always impressed with their food and service. Most of the dishes are authentic Balinese / Indonesian food though a few of the dishes are influenced by Japanese taste! Some of the dishes are very spicy which I love.

One of the best dishes, and real traditional Balinese food is the Pork ribs. Slow cooked with the meat falling off the bone. Served with a side of fries, this was a great dish.

We also had some sate sticks which was not quite like sate you get in Indonesia or Bali but still tasty. Another great dish was the stir-fried spear squid with some vegetables with hot spicy sauce. This dish was SPICY and yum. We also shared a nice noodle dish.

The drinks menu has all the usual beer, wine and spirits as well as a range of cool cocktails, some of which are served with fireworks (well with a sparkler!).
