About the Menu

The menu at Bali Hai Restaurant offers a relaxed yet thoughtfully crafted selection of Polynesian-inspired dishes and tropical cocktails. It features a blend of casual bites and satisfying entrees, creating an inviting space to enjoy both lighter fare and more substantial meals throughout the day.

Guests often find themselves drawn to signature items like coconut shrimp served with ginger lime dipping sauce, fresh ahi poke, and firecracker pork ribs, all of which complement the easygoing island atmosphere. The menu extends from vibrant lunch salads and shareable pupus in the lounge to hearty dinner options such as pan seared scallops and prime rib, catering well to both midday gatherings and evening dinners.

Alongside flavorful dishes, the drink offerings add to the laid-back vibe, with cocktails crafted from time-tested recipes including their well-loved Mai Tai. These drinks encourage leisurely moments spent soaking in the iconic bay views and the warm Polynesian ambiance.

Whether visiting after a day on the water or settling in for a relaxed meal with friends, the menu’s variety and approachable style invite guests to take their time and enjoy a taste of the islands right in San Diego.
