Time For Fish at The Westin Resort Nusa Dua, Bali

The new contemporary island look of Ikan situated at The Westin Resort Nusa Dua, Bali promises to take your culinary journey and cocktails soiree to a higher level.

One of the latest additions to the Nusa Dua culinary scene, Ikan or Fish in English is a beachfront casual eatery by day and an elevated dining destination by night, serving a delectable array of fresh seafood and Indonesian-inspired cuisine. Having undergone a complete revamp, the restaurant provides a one-of-a-kind destination to dine, drink and savor life at its best.  You will definitely find the new ambiance and décor are more comfortable and inviting. 

The restaurant is divided into different seating arrangements to suit individual guests and groups’ needs. Guests are welcome to enjoy an aperitif at the beachside seating near the bar before moving to the main restaurant area for dinner. Alternatively, the adjoining Ikan Bar with its wicker-back bar stools and turquoise-clad island counter, offers a sophisticated space to imbibe. The restaurant also features an air-conditioned private dining room to accommodate up to 20 guests as well as a hexagonal semi-private dining area for groups who wish for some privacy. Meanwhile, couples may find five individual tables on the beach suitable for their romantic dinners. 

Led by Chef de Cuisine Fajar Kurniawan Putra, Ikan’s daytime and night time menus weave his passion for local produce with Indonesia’s vibrant regional cuisine, which guarantees to spoil every diner’s palette. He is accompanied by another local talent, Head Mixologist Marlon Hermanto, who is well-known in Bali’s bar scene for creating craft cocktails, mixing premium artisanal spirits with house-made infusions. 

Guests are encouraged to share the dishes and try different things from the small bites, tapas, mains, and dessert selections. Start your dining experience with their signature dishes that include  Crab Spring Roll served with salad and tangy belimbing wuluh salsa; Bulung, a refreshing seaweed salad made of seared tuna and kuah pindang scented dressing; a slow-cooked Ayam Upih Betutuand a Jimbaran-style, freshly-caught Ikan Bakar served with sayur urap vegetable and sambals. Other dishes worth trying are Salmon Gohu in Nori Base, Rock Lobster Laksa and Jimbaran Prawn. 

It is recommended to pair the dishes with Ikan Bar’s signature craft cocktails such as Gunung Agung, made with Nusa Cana Rum, Falernum and roselle soda; or The Italian Job,a concoction made of house-made limoncello, prosecco, green apple soda, and dill.

With creatively delicious dishes, chill vibes and unbeatable view, it is no wonder Ikan has become increasingly popular. It’s a must-visit!
