Say hello to the freshest go-to restaurant in Canggu, Bali: Sazón Tapas Bar & Grill. Bringing the vibrant and authentic flavours of Spain to the bustling street of Batu Bolong, Sazón offers an unforgettable dining experience with bold, flavourful dishes and a lively ambience.
Sazón Tapas Bar & Grill has quickly become one of the most exciting new additions to Canggu’s ever-evolving dining scene. Located in the heart of Batu Bolong, this vibrant new hotspot brings the rich flavours of Spain to Bali with an inviting, convivial atmosphere. More than just a restaurant, Sazón is an experience, a place where food, drinks and ambiance come together in a lively celebration of social dining.
As an independent concept under Regent Bali Canggu, Sazón has already gained a strong following among food lovers, offering a thoughtfully curated menu that combines premium Spanish ingredients with the freshest local produce for an authentic dining experience.
True to its name, Sazón, means “just the right taste” or “the perfect moment”, embodies the perfect taste. The space itself is designed to enhance the entire dining experience for up to 133 guests, featuring an interactive open kitchen, cozy booths, a lush alfresco garden seating and a striking bar at the front. Whether you choose to sit at the exclusive Chef’s Table for an up-close look at the culinary artistry or relax with cocktails in the courtyard, Sazón is a perfect place to unwind from your daily routine or having a nice conversation with your loved ones.
Behind Sazón’s culinary vision is Michelin-starred chef Andrew Walsh, who is known for his ability to create dining experiences that are both exciting and delicious. His previous venture, Cure in Singapore, earned a Michelin Star in 2021 and a place on The World’s 50 Best Discovery List. Now, with Sazón, he brings his signature flair to Bali, ready to impress food aficianados in Bali who crave authentic and flavourful Spanish cuisine.
Working alongside him is Head Chef Javier Vicente, a passionate advocate for Spanish gastronomy whose impressive background includes competing in the World Championship of Paella Valenciana and co-owning the London Paella School. With expertise honed in Spain and Singapore, Chef Javier ensures that every dish at Sazón stays true to its roots in Spain.
The menu itself is the finest and bold celebration of Spanish flavours, featuring an enticing selection of tapas, paellas and expertly grilled meats. One of the standout dishes is the Spanish Tortilla, served with potato and onion jam and chorizo tomato, offering a rich and comforting taste of Spain. The Scallop Ajoblanco is a delicate combination of chilled almond soup, cucumber and dill, provides a refreshing contrast to the heartier dishes.
Paella lovers will appreciate the Paella Iberico Pork & Mushrooms Sofrito, which comes with aioli and kale, perfectly capturing the essence of Spanish communal dining. For those who enjoy grilled meats, the 28-Day Dry-Aged Beef ‘Txuleta’ (1kg) with confit garlic is a must-try, offering a deeply flavourful and satisfying experience. To end on a sweet note, the Carajillo with coffee and whisky and the Burnt Milk Ice Cream are the perfect indulgence.
The drinks menu at Sazón is just as impressive, featuring an expertly curated selection of wines, craft cocktails and house-infused spirits that complement the bold flavours of the food. The Sangria Roja, a vibrant and bold mix of red wine, rosemary-infused port, cranberry, peach and rosella cordial, is a crowd favourite, while the Sangria Blanca, a white wine infused with Sakura tea, lychee and tonic water, offers a lighter, refreshing alternative. Another highlight is the Aperitivo de Marianito, a refined blend of strawberry tea-infused gin, Limo Aperitivo, sweet vermouth and bitters, which provides the perfect balance of bitterness and sweetness.
Sazón is more than just a place to eat—it is a celebration of Spanish culture, flavours and hospitality. Open from Wednesday to Sunday between 6pm and 11pm, it has quickly established itself as the perfect spot for an intimate dinner, a lively night out or simply an opportunity to indulge in some of the best Spanish food in Bali. With its exceptional food, expertly crafted cocktails and inviting ambiance, Sazón is a place where every plate tells a story and every meal is a feast worth sharing. Más amor, por favor!
