"Place was great Aussie style sports bar. Got the Aussie burger and it was perfect, except for the very very salty patty. Not sure if they overstated it or if it’s not Aussie beef like they claim. I would still come here again though no doubt."

"i passed by this restaurant on the way to the beach. the gmap reviews were good so I decided to try. the prices were very good and they accept credit cards (hopefully, they will add amex soon). I made a mistake of ordering pork chops (OR ribs) instead of bbq pork ribs. however, I enjoyed the pork chops and the sides. service was excellent. my pork chop was slightly pink on the inside so I sent it back to the kitchen to get it brown/gray. (someone even came back to ask me if there was a problem and I said no.) also, nice stop near the beach and good 80 and 90s pop music. I'll definitely come back to the restaurant."

"I visited Thrill of the Grill because I had been told it was the best steak in Bali. Unfortunately, the first steak I ordered (a 250g grilled scotch fillet) was quite chewy so I reluctantly sent it back. The chef came out to have a chat with me and even offered to let me choose the cut he would cook as a replacement. I wasn’t sure things would turn out differently, but I was pleasantly surprised. The replacement steak was perfectly cooked (medium rare), and deliciously tasty. Kudos to the chef for dealing with my complaint with a smile."

"This restaurant is a perfect spot for all barbecue lovers! Everything we tried was perfectly prepared and cooked exactly as it should be. The meat was juicy, full of flavor, and of top quality, and the portions were truly generous. We were especially impressed by the pumpkin soup – creamy, rich, and absolutely phenomenal in taste. The steaks were cooked to perfection, exactly as ordered, tender and perfectly seasoned. The service was top-notch – professional, efficient, and extremely friendly. The ambiance of the restaurant was also excellent, cozy, and perfectly matched the overall experience. All in all, a fantastic experience that we highly recommend to anyone looking for outstanding barbecue, great service, and a pleasant atmosphere!"
