The story
Perched within the Bulgari Resort Bali on the dramatic cliffs of Uluwatu, Sangkar is the resort's signature Asian dining destination — a space where the Indonesian landscape shapes everything from the setting to the spirit of the menu. The restaurant sits alongside the resort's other dining venues, including Il Ristorante - Niko Romito, reflecting Bulgari's characteristic pairing of Italian sensibility with local culture.
In 2025, Wine Spectator awarded Sangkar its Best of Award of Excellence, a distinction that speaks directly to the depth and curation of the restaurant's wine program. For a dining room that bridges Asian and Italian cuisines, building a list that earns that level of recognition is no small feat — it signals a kitchen and front-of-house working in genuine harmony.
Sangkar offers outdoor seating alongside table service, meaning the Indian Ocean views are not incidental — they are part of the meal. The restaurant accommodates private parties, making it a natural choice for celebratory occasions within one of Bali's most architecturally considered resorts. Service spans breakfast, lunch, and dinner, giving guests multiple moments in the day to experience the kitchen's range across its Asian and Italian influences.
The name itself — sangkar meaning "cage" or "birdcage" in Bahasa Indonesia — suggests an atmosphere of carefully composed beauty, where design and nature are held in deliberate tension.
