Forketta Bali: Italian Heart in Sanur

Joglo Charm, Italian Soul
Set on Jl. Danau Tamblingan No.126C in the thick of Sanur’s restaurant strip, Forketta Bali blends a traditional Joglo-style setting with a full-bodied Italian mood. Open daily from 07h30 to 22h30, it moves smoothly from breakfast to late dinner, drawing both tourists and repeat regulars.

Authentic Kitchen, Wood-Fired Heat
Forketta calls itself an “Authentic Italian Restaurant & Bar”, and diners back that up. Reviews praise thin, crispy wood-oven pizzas, soft homemade pasta (from gnocchi to ravioli) and house signatures like lasagna, lamb ragu and seafood spaghetti. Tiramisu can sell out, which guests see as proof it’s made fresh daily, while lava cake, lemon meringue pie and an affogato with a shot of sambucca pop up as dessert highlights.

From Breakfast to Limoncello Nights
Morning guests mention light, fresh breakfast dishes and good coffee before the day’s heat sets in. Lunch might mean a pizza-and-salad combo “for 2” that realistically feeds 3 or 4, or a burrata salad that steals the show. Evenings stretch into long dinners rounded off with house limoncello or a carafe of wine; some describe it as “a true balm for the soul” and a reason to linger.

Service With Names, Not Just Smiles
Service is a major draw. Names like Nia, Zak/Zack and May appear again and again in reviews from 2023–2024, with guests noting their humour, menu suggestions and careful attention to dietary needs. One coeliac diner reports feeling fully understood and safe with gluten free pizza, while another recounts staff changing a wrongly ordered dish without charge. A visible manager and an Italian “dude” or Chef Eno in the kitchen reinforce the sense of hands-on care.

Atmosphere, Music and Crowd
Forketta’s Joglo structure, dim lighting and fans create a cozy, airy room that stays busy, especially after 18h00 and even on rainy nights. Families, couples and big groups all show up; kids devour whole cheese pizzas from the children’s menu while adults enjoy soft background music or local live bands and Sunday singing duos. Some evenings feel buzzy and jammed, so reservations are wise in high season.

Pricing, Portions and Trade-Offs
Portions run generous – pizzas described as “very generous size”, pastas rich and filling, salads substantial. Prices strike most as reasonable for the quality, though a few call them “not cheap by Bali standards” or “standard touristique”. Occasional quibbles surface about a bland bruschetta, a cream-heavy pesto or slightly plain chicken, but these are isolated next to a high volume of 4.5–5-star reviews.

Forketta Bali suits anyone in Sanur craving real-deal Italian – from gluten free guests to families and wine-and-limoncello lovers – who are happy to trade slightly higher, tourist-level prices for consistent flavour, warm service and a lively, lived-in atmosphere.
