Restaurant Review

In the heart of the Nusa Dua Galeria shopping complex, On The Rocks successfully combines the atmosphere of a festive Sunday Barbeque and a romantic sidewalk cafe. For starters, the do-it-yourself cooking concept immediately imbues the diner with a sense of fun and adventure, as to the meal, that's about to follow. To prepare yourself, start with the Hot Rock Special, a tropical cocktail with a kick, or sip an ice cold beer in preparation for the scorching feast. The obvious choice for the main course, of course, is something 'on the rocks' Highly recommended are; the Yellow Fin Tuna, the Australian Tender Beef Medallions, the giant Benoa 'Prawns or the juicy Pork which arrive at your table fresh and, as yet, uncooked. All "hot Rock" meals come with a baked potato lathered in sour cream, a side salad, a sauteed vegetable medley and a choice of mouthwatering sauces. Treat yourself at On The Rocks to a delicious, interactive, healthy, dining expérience. Catch Galeria Nusa Dua's shuttle service
