When it comes to Satay in Lombok, most people immediately think of Sate Rembiga or Sate Bulayak. But there’s a lesser-known spot that serves some of the most flavorful satay in town—Warung Sate Napisah. If you’re looking for an authentic and delicious local dining experience, this is the place to be.
Sate Napisah is located in Rembiga, about 250 meters east of the Rembiga traffic light. From Mataram city center, you can get there by following Jalan Udayana and turning east.
The shop itself is small and easy to miss, with a simple sign that blends into the surroundings. But despite its modest appearance, the steady flow of customers is proof that this warung is one of the best places to enjoy meat satay in Lombok.
Sate Napisah serves:
For drinks, you can choose from fresh young coconut, squeezed orange juice, or bottled water.
A full meal, including Bebalung soup, white rice, and a portion of meat satay, costs around IDR 55,000. Individual servings of satay, Bebalung, or Sate Pusut are IDR 25,000 each.
Sate Napisah is also a great choice if you want to take satay home. Due to concentrated spices, their satay stays fresh for up to 24 hours without refrigeration, and you can request special packaging in a bamboo basket or plastic wrap for easy transport.
If you’re in Mataram or on route to the Gili Islands, and craving an authentic satay experience, Sate Napisah is well worth the visit.
