Syrco BASÈ Restaurant & Bar in Ubud
Set within a minimalist yet warmly inviting space, Syrco BASÈ Ubud reveals itself quietly, almost like a modern private house with a regenerative garden. The open design creates an immediate sense of ease, while the service remains attentive without ever feeling intrusive. This gentle balance between space, people, and cuisine allows guests to settle in naturally, as if arriving somewhere familiar, yet entirely new. Here, fine dining feels approachable, relaxed, and deeply considered, a form of casual excellence that defines the experience from the very first moment.
At the heart of the experience lies the BASÈ Journey tasting menu, a thoughtful expression of conscious dining rooted in Indonesian heritage, redefining the tasting menu experience in Ubud. Under the direction of Syrco Bakker, the menu reflects a philosophy of traceability, seasonality, and respect for nature. Ingredients speak clearly, spices carry presence, and each dish arrives with a sense of intention that feels both direct and deeply rooted.
The menu unfolds as a journey through land, sea, and garden, each element expressed with clarity and character.
From the sea, Crayfish, Hamachi, Oyster, Fish Rouleau, Sepia, and Spiny Lobster bring brightness, depth, and a confident expression of ocean flavours. From the garden, Savoy Cabbage, Tomato, and Nasi Ulam offer freshness and vibrant texture. From the land, Wagyu Tokusen MB5 grounds the experience with richness and structure.
Among these, a few moments lingered just a little longer.
The tartelette with radish, dashi, and tarragon arrived as a delicate yet expressive opening. Light in form yet layered in flavour, it set the tone for the journey ahead with quiet confidence. A mouthful of pure delight, one of those bites I could have happily returned to again and again.

The sepia, cut into fine linguini-like ribbons, revealed a playful interpretation of texture and technique. Black garlic added depth, while lemon kosho lifted the dish with brightness and precision. Elegant, slightly unexpected, and deeply satisfying.

The Wagyu Tokusen MB5 brought the experience to a grounded and comforting close. Cooked to a perfect medium rare, its richness was balanced by island-grown root vegetables and a silky barley koji hollandaise. A dish that felt both generous and composed, the kind that stays with you long after the last bite.
