Bonito, Our Sister Restaurant, Sails to Seminyak

Bonito closed its Umalas location for good after dinner service on Thursday, August 6, 2026. Four days later, on August 10, it reopened on the open-air rooftop at KLEO Seminyak.

Same kitchen. Same team. Same menu. New view.

If you’re looking for where Bonito is now, here’s the short answer: Jl. Taman Ganesha, Jl. Petitenget No.9, Seminyak. Open daily, 5–11 PM, dinner only.

Where Is Bonito Now?

Bonito’s new address:

  • Jl. Taman Ganesha, Jl. Petitenget No.9, Seminyak, Bali 80361
  • Rooftop level, KLEO Seminyak
  • Open daily, 5–11 PM, dinner only
  • Valet parking available
  • Booking recommended in advance — rooftop seating is limited

The old Umalas address on Jl. Bumbak Dauh is permanently closed. If you have it saved from a past visit, update it.

Why Bonito Left Umalas for a Seminyak Rooftop

Bonito spent four and a half years building its name in Umalas. The move isn’t a relaunch — it’s the same restaurant, relocated as one unit.

The new rooftop is open to the sky, looking out over the Seminyak coastline. Dinner now comes with a sunset built in.

Bonito is part of La Famiglia Restaurant Group, founded by Chef Maurizio Bombini, the same team behind MAURI and Zia Tina. Zia Tina is also based inside KLEO Seminyak — so Bonito now shares an address with its sister restaurant, on the same property.

What's Still on the Menu (and What's New)

The food hasn’t changed. The schedule has.

Still on the menu:

  • Bottoni Cacio e Pepe — the dish most guests ask for by name
  • Gnocchetti al Ragù — slow-cooked, hearty pasta
  • Tagliolini al Tonno — squid ink tagliolini with raw yellowfin tuna and smoked ricotta cream
  • Chicken Yakitori — the non-seafood option worth ordering on purpose
  • Raw bar: live oysters, clams, tuna tartare, crudo
  • Whole grilled fish and fritto misto
  • A Taste of Bonito — a four-course chef’s tasting menu, built for sharing, minimum two people

 

New at the rooftop:

  • Aperitivo Hours, daily 5–7 PM: oysters at IDR 12K each, wine by the glass at IDR 80K, complimentary snacks
  • Dinner-only hours across the board — Bonito no longer serves lunch

A Track Record Worth Following to the New Address

Bonito isn’t starting from zero. It’s bringing its reputation with it.

Chef Maurizio Bombini grew up in Puglia before running kitchens across Europe, the US, and China, then opening MAURI in Bali in 2018, followed by Bonito in 2022. About 80% of the fish and seafood served is sustainably sourced from Bali, Lombok, Flores, and Timor.

On TripAdvisor, Bonito is rated 4.9 out of 5 from 157 reviews, and the restaurant has been featured in The Honeycombers Bali. Tripadvisor

Bonito is one of three restaurants from the same kitchen family in Seminyak — alongside MAURI (fine dining) and Zia Tina (home-style Puglian, also at KLEO).

Sunset tables go first. Book ahead, especially for weekends.
