Throughout the past two years, Master Chef, Dean Keddell, late of the Ritz Carlton Bali and recently his own, highly acclaimed Ginger Moon Asian Canteen, has been creating a new restaurant, and it is superb! Situated in a prime location, on Seminyak’s main strip, the building was gutted and completely rebuilt to Dean’s exacting standards; creating an ideal environment in which to savour his innovative Asian cuisine.

Dean’s vision has expanded the Ginger Moon concept of excellent Asian home cooking, and carried it in a diversely thrilling direction, without sacrificing the taste-homage to the ancestors. Jackson Lily’s is a vast space, a cathedral in which to entertain and to be entertained by exciting, novel flavours and compelling artful presentation.

The desserts are on the verge of being literally mind-blowing and the small, punchy wine list is complemented by an exciting and novel assortment of tropical cocktails; and the non-alcoholic juices are perfect.

Three decades of kitchen-captivity have created a superb chef who has a natural ability to instil his expertise in others. His staff have all become experts in their own right; service and quality are second to none and the environment and appointments are magnificent.

The ground floor is air-conditioned and features an open kitchen, lavish pastry display, and long, welcoming bar – which combine to give a great first impression. Upstairs is a breezy dining room and a spacious all-weather balcony; perfect for early mornings, sunsets and evenings dining under the stars. The use of exposed steel and reclaimed teak throughout the building complements the warm and comfortable ambiance.

Jackson Lily’s sets a new standard of excellence in Bali; utilising high quality produce, local wherever possible, this is an exciting menu, blending the absolute best of East and West.

Initially, Jackson Lily’s is open from 5pm 6 days a week (closed Tuesdays) but will be opening for all day dining, from 12pm-11pm, and then breakfasts, brunches, and morning and afternoon teas, in stages shortly thereafter.
