Cendana - Badung

I asked them if one of their vegetarian options could be made vegan and they said no. avoid this place when they are vegan. I ordered a coffee and it was brought out with milk milk in him what I had never happened before. I asked if I could have it black without milk and they made it seem like it was a big tor.

Cendana Restaurant my go to place in Bali when i crave for tasty vegan Indonesian dishes. Even though it is not even a vegetarian restaurant, but Cendana has quite a few vegan-friendly Indonesian dishes like 'Gado-gado ' (indonesian mix salad with peanut sauce), Balinese vegetable curry, 'Opor Tahu ' (Braised tofu in coconut milk)to name a few. My absolute favorite is the veganized version of their 'Nasi Gurih, which is a savory rice that comes with fried tofu, sweet spicy tempe orek, vegetables curry, and spicy potato crisp. Love it! so worth the trip! Then finish it off with Black Rice Pudding 'Bubur Injin ' ' with Coconut Ice Cream. What I truly love about Cendana is how accommodating they are. They can whip up a vegan dish or veganize some dishes at your request (when possible of course) . The key is to ask and inform the staff that you are vegan and they’ll gladly accommodate you.

We initially had difficulty locating this restaurant due to Google Maps displaying it in the wrong location. However, by following the map on HappyCow, we were able to find the restaurant situated right next to the road, easily visible. We tried the vegan gado gado and found it to be good, although not the best we've ever had. The highlight was the delicious satay sauce. The restaurant offers a variety of vegan Indonesian dishes at affordable prices and has a welcoming atmosphere.

The vegan nasi campur is absolutely delicious with a great selection of options and excellent value for money!

We found the restaurant to have good vegetarian and vegan options, a great atmosphere, and friendly staff. The food was enjoyable and the prices were very reasonable. It turned out to be our most affordable meal in Seminyak. We initially overlooked this place because of its location, assuming it would be expensive, but we were pleasantly surprised.
