What Tre Forchette means

Gambero Rosso is one of Italy’s leading food and wine authorities. Its Top Italian Restaurants guide reviews Italian restaurants outside Italy and marks the best of them with one, two or three forchette: good, very good and excellent.

Tre Forchette is the top grade. For 2026, the guide awarded it to MAURI, the Southern Italian fine dining restaurant Chef Maurizio Bombini opened on Jalan Petitenget, Seminyak, in 2018.

What the guide says

Gambero Rosso

  • “In Bali, when it comes to Italian haute cuisine, the name Maurizio Bombini inevitably comes up.”

  • “His cuisine is elegant yet never cold, technical yet always accessible. At its core are absolute respect for the ingredient, seasonality, and a constant pursuit of balance.”

  • “The open kitchen, the limited number of seats, the precise yet warm service, and a top-tier wine cellar all contribute to creating a gastronomic journey that manages to be both exclusive and welcoming.”

The review follows Chef Maurizio from his family’s restaurant on the Adriatic coast of Puglia to the kitchens of the Bulgari Resort and The Ritz-Carlton in Bali, and to MAURI. It describes a menu built on fresh pasta, extra-virgin olive oil and the finest Italian ingredients, alongside carefully selected local produce.

A word from Chef Maurizio

Thank you to Gambero Rosso for this recognition, to our MAURI team, and to every guest who continues to support us.”
