As you might expect, the Lovina restaurants are the place to be where you can eat fresh fish. Fish that is just caught that very same day...
If you drive along the main street of Lovina beach you will see many signs of restaurants, which are located in the side streets towards the beach.
Some of these are large seafood restaurants where you can choose from fish, crab or lobster that are still swimming in a fish tank.
However Kalibukbuk is the place where restaurants are located close to one another. Along both streets there are various types of restaurants, from large fully packed ones, to less prominent ones.

Fishing boats at Lovina North Bali...
The nice thing about dining in Kalibukbuk is you can stroll around the small village until you have found a nice place.
There are also a couple of restaurants located at the beach so while having dinner you can gaze at the amazing sunset Lovina beach is famous for.
Besides grilled and fried fish, a large number of Lovina restaurants serve fish prepared the Balinese way.
Most famous is the ikan pepes which is fish wrapped in banana leaf and grilled together with dozens of herbs and spices. It is very tasty, but be aware that every restaurant in Bali prepares their ikan pepes slightly different.

Enjoy lunch or dinner right at the beach...
There are also restaurants which promote other dishes besides just seafood. There is an abundance in Western food too such as pizza, spaghetti, tuna sandwiches and even cheese burgers.
So there is always something for everyone...
These are the Lovina restaurants which we think are worth having a bite:
Warung
Bintang Bali:
This restaurant is one of those places where there are always people
sitting while other restaurants are still empty.
We had a difficult time choosing; because once we were seated we saw that besides the dishes on the menu there were more mentioned on blackboards hanging on the ceiling. All of the dishes sound really tasty...
Tropics
Restaurant & Bar:
This big restaurant with an open seating is located at the beach in
Kalibukbuk.
If you order fish or pizza you can see them preparing it on the grill and stone oven just in the back of the restaurant.
The food and coffee is really good and together with the nice sea breeze, it’s perfect for lunch or dinner. Try the grilled tuna, it's delicious ;-)
The
Sea Breeze Restaurant:
This cafe on the beach at Jalan Bina Ria serves delightful food and has
a view to die for with the amazing sunset.
Try the seafood Shish kebab and you won't be disappointed.
There's also an acoustic live band in the background that plays songs on request. Arrive around 5pm since it gets pretty busy...
