BIT BALI Ratu Bar & Restaurant

2 NoahJon Marshall - 11 months ago

the current place (during covid) not the same as pics in other reviews (it’s smaller). food fine but portions small and service quite slow (but only 2 employees working, though there were no other customers). menu pretty limited. if you in the kids area for the bars, decent place to stop and eat but you may be waiting a while.

MONEY EXCHANGE SCAM!!! AVOID AT ALL COSTS!!!
We tried to change money here, and the shady guy with the long hair and tattoos, who looks like a drug dealer, counted it in front of my eyes. Then he asked, if we want to change more, and changed my friends money, before giving me my full amount.
Through this, he managed to confuse us, probably did some pocket tricks, when we were distracted and we ended up with 1/3 of my friends money missing (about 500k, a lot for us!).
We came back a few minutes later, after realizing. The staff in front, just told us "we're sorry, that's another company"...yeah sure...
We confronted the guy, and he IMMEDIATELY gave us our original money back, shouting "go change somewhere else!", because he realized, we saw through his scam! That means, they seem to actually fear the police! So in case you get tricked here, and they don't want to give your money back, tell them you're going to call the police, and do so, if they still don't give in! Best thing to do for tourists, would be to not support this shady place at all!
BE AWARE, that most other "authorized money exchanges ", are scams as well! Only change, were there are solid glass counters, and personnel who check your ID and give you a receipt.
You can recognize the scam exchanges, by "too good" exchange rates and by not being an exchange only. So don't use the ones in bars and clubs etc...
Good luck!

Great bar for a drink and watching the action go by. Friendly attentive staff and nice cold beer. Also have great Aussie pies if your hungry. Thanks to trainee Komang for his wonderful service, he will be manager soon.

Had a bad experience here some time ago after years of dining here. Decided to pop in for a quiet drink around midday to see if things had improved. Were distracted by staff while a friend of theirs stole my wife's Surfer girl purchase. The staff were adamant we weren't carrying anything when we arrived. The staff at the shop next door was adamant we were.

3 years ago I am come to this restaurant because my husband family love this restaurant.
Today we come back to have nice dinner and change the money and we go to the back counted the money in front of him many time.Than him touch the money look like want to counting it but than him give the money back and than say he just have 1 million rupiah when he do that my husband start thing something up so he counted it again in front of him and yes he lost $100. Please don’t do the same mistake like we do never ever go there to change the money.
Now we will never go there again even for food coz all the trust is gone.

It seems like a place that's trying to do too many things at once.

The BIT in the name stands for BITCOIN, and with a technology store opposite the way, it's unclear what is going on there. A money exchange in the back of the hotel also raises a few questions, but i didn't bother looking in to it.

I sat, had a beer, the bartenders were friendly if a bit bored.

The drunks came quick and the food was reasonable.

It was ok.
