This small restaurant has a simple menu (three dishes, a curry noodle and curry rice dish, and a daily special). The owner was very friendly. We had the creme brulee and the crepe coco. Closed on Mondays. Two drinks, two mains and two desserts only came to 16USD. No service charge. It might be good to book in advance.

This is the place you like to eat every day. Small and cosy with a wonderfull host. The menu is limited but it does not matter what you chose, everything is divine and absolutley fresh. Geraldine the owner and her staff are most attentive with an eye for details. The menu is so small it is obvious it is fresh... More

Dinner at Melting Wok Warung was tantalisingly fresh, featuring fresh Laotian flavours of herbs and spices - the mouth watering aroma permeates the small restaurant and the food when it arrives definitely lives up to the promise. Wine is by the glass only but the Hatten's Red complemented our meals well. Desserts are sublime - recommend the creme caramel with... More

I loved my meal at the Melting Wok, I had the daily special an amazing beef curry/stew that was literally melt in your mouth. The staff and host were the most attentive and friendly I have experienced on my travels during this trip (4 months now!). Definitely worth a visit.

We ate here last night and absolutley loved it! It's a really small restaurant with only 7 tables so I'd advise booking a table for an evening meal, the food should not be missed! The smell of gorgeous food being cooked hits you as soon as you walk in and the meal did not dissapoint. The service was great and... More

Geraldine made us feel like family when we visited her restaurant! My husband was delighted to spend some time chatting in his native French and we both enjoyed the delicious food. As I'm pregnant, the food was a little spicy but they are happy to accommodate and make no Chilli option. The atmosphere is like eating with friends, even though... More

Although the menu is rather limited compared to other eateries in Ubud, the food was very nicely prepared and tasty. The owner, a very pleasant french woman, was very hospitable, and her 2 servers were friendly and efficient. Highly recommended.

Booked here because of all the rave reviews on trip advisor. Food was cheap. My dish was OK but nothing fancy. My wife had the pork and it was really tough. The presentation was average. I enjoyed my meal but see no reason to return.
