Warung Nasi Ayam Bu Oki is a gem in the bustling area of Tuban, offering a taste of authentic Balinese flavors at an affordable price. 

Located on Jl. Raya Tuban No.3, this small restaurant specializes in Nasi Ayam, a beloved dish in Bali that combines a variety of flavors and textures on one plate.

Location & Ambiance

This warung is quite small and can be easily missed if you're not paying attention. 

The main menu revolves around Nasi Ayam, which consists of a portion of rice served with various accompaniments like fried chicken (my personal favorite), Ayam Betutu (Balinese spiced chicken), Sate Lilit (minced meat satay), and a selection of vegetables. 

The restaurant's modest size does come with some downsides, which I’ll get into later.

What I Ordered

 

During my visit, I ordered the Nasi Ayam and Sate Lilit. Both dishes were packed with flavor, with the fried chicken standing out as a highlight. 

The Sate Lilit was also delicious, offering a tender and flavorful bite that complemented the rest of the meal perfectly. The portions were generous, and at a price of Rp 25,000–50,000 per person, it’s hard to argue with the value you’re getting.

 

Taste & Price

Simply put, I LOVE IT! The food at Warung Nasi Ayam Bu Oki is absolutely worth the price. The combination of well-seasoned chicken, spicy sambal, and perfectly cooked rice made for a satisfying meal that left me wanting to come back for more. 

The prices are incredibly reasonable, especially considering the quality of the food.

Downsides

However, there are a few drawbacks to keep in mind. Due to its popularity, the warung often has long queues, so be prepared to wait, especially during peak hours. 

The eating area is also quite small and can get hot, which might be uncomfortable for some. These factors can take away from the overall dining experience, but the delicious food makes it worth enduring these minor inconveniences.

Conclusion

Warung Nasi Ayam Bu Oki is a must-visit for anyone looking to experience authentic Balinese food without breaking the bank. While the small, hot eating area and long queues might be a downside, the incredible taste and affordable prices more than make up for it. If you’re in Tuban, don’t miss out on this local favorite!
