Dinner Menu
Dinner at Buzo is Itameshi in full: the precision of Japanese cooking with the generosity of the Italian table. Sushi, pizza and handmade pasta are the invitation. Steak, lobster and sizzling plates make the occasion.
Chili Miso Beef Pizza layers gochujang beef, sweet corn butter, nori and miso béchamel. Squid Ink Pasta combines calamari, tomato and capers with miso butter and salted kombu, while Miso Ricotta Potato Agnolotti arrives in lemon butter sauce. For the centre of the table: Porcini Ash-Crusted Rib Eye with black garlic and bordelaise, or Lobster Spaghetti with prawn, shiso and cherry tomatoes.

Questions we are often asked
What is Itameshi?
Itameshi is the meeting of Japanese and Italian cooking. It connects the precision of Japanese cooking with the generosity of the Italian table. At Buzo that means Japanese seasonings such as miso, kombu and shiso alongside butter, tomato and cheese.
Who is behind Buzo?
Buzo is a Japanese-Italian restaurant and bar by chef Will Meyrick, at Jalan Kayu Aya No. 105, Seminyak, Bali. The menu is his interpretation of Itameshi.
What time is dinner served at Buzo?
Buzo is open daily from noon until 10.30pm. Dinner is served until closing.
What are the signature dishes?
Tuna Sashimi with pickled green tomato, aged ponzu and burnt butter, Tempura Zucchini Flowers, Chili Miso Beef Pizza, Japanese Prawn Margherita, Squid Ink Pasta, Miso Ricotta Potato Agnolotti, Porcini Ash-Crusted Rib Eye and Lobster Spaghetti.
Does Buzo serve steak and lobster?
Yes. Porcini Ash-Crusted Rib Eye is served with black garlic and bordelaise, and Lobster Spaghetti comes with prawn, shiso and cherry tomatoes. The sizzle plates include Sutēki: steak with teppan rice, buttered corn and vegetables, with a choice of sauces and butters.
Is the dinner menu made to share?
Yes. It is a menu that accommodates the whole table: the seafood enthusiast, the devoted steak eater and the guest keen to discover something new.
What is there for dessert?
White Chocolate and Yuzu Cheesecake, with coconut biscuit, passionfruit curd and matcha crumbs, is a bright finish to a generous meal.
Can the kitchen cater for dietary requirements?
Yes. The kitchen caters for nut-free, gluten-free, dairy-free, shellfish-free and vegetarian diets. Each dish on the menu carries its dietary notes; tell the team when you book so the kitchen can prepare.
Are prices subject to tax and service?
Prices are in thousands of rupiah and marked ++, which means they are subject to 7.5% service charge and 10% government tax.
Pasta, with a Japanese accent.
The pasta menu gives Buzo's culinary identity some of its clearest expression. Squid Ink Pasta combines calamari, tomato and capers with miso butter and salted kombu. The seafood brings sweetness, the butter carries the flavour, and pickled jalapeño adds a sharp lift.
Miso Ricotta Potato Agnolotti takes a softer approach. Filled pasta in lemon butter sauce delivers the comfort of Italian cooking with the rounded savouriness of miso. Both reward a slower pace: a forkful, a sip of wine, and time to appreciate how the flavours come together.
Steak. Lobster. A little sizzle.
Buzo's appetite extends well beyond pasta and pizza. Porcini Ash-Crusted Rib Eye, served with black garlic and bordelaise, gives steak lovers a substantial reason to book. Lobster Spaghetti with prawn, shiso and cherry tomatoes brings a sense of holiday indulgence to the table.
The sizzle plates offer another kind of satisfaction. Sutēki pairs steak with teppan rice, buttered corn and vegetables, with a choice of sauces and butters allowing guests to follow their own taste. It is a menu that accommodates the whole table: the seafood enthusiast, the devoted steak eater and the guest keen to discover something new.
Save room. Stay a little longer.
Dessert brings one final meeting of flavours. White Chocolate and Yuzu Cheesecake balances creamy sweetness with Japanese citrus, accompanied by coconut biscuit, passionfruit curd and matcha crumbs. It is a bright finish to a generous meal and a good reason to order another spoon.
Two cultures. One appetite.
Itameshi connects the precision of Japanese cooking with the generosity of the Italian table. At Buzo, that connection comes alive through ingredients. Miso gives ricotta greater savoury depth. Kombu brings a briny richness to pasta. Shiso adds an aromatic lift to seafood, while Japanese seasonings find a natural place alongside butter, tomato and cheese.
There is care behind those combinations: balancing richness with acidity, softness with crunch, and familiar flavours with something worth discovering. For guests, the pleasure is immediate. Order something you know, something that catches your curiosity, and a little more for the centre of the table.
The room sets the mood.
Buzo's interiors give the evening a sense of occasion. The dining room combines polish with the fun social vibe of a modern izakaya. It feels equally suited to a dinner for two or a gathering of friends, with a relaxed rhythm that invites guests to settle in.
The bar is part of that experience from the outset. Arrive before dinner and let a cocktail mark the transition from a day in Seminyak to an evening at Buzo. After the meal, return for another drink and let the conversation continue. The Wine Room adds a further dimension, giving wine its own place within the restaurant's identity and another reason to make a night of the visit.
