Vi Ai Pi Bar and Club, Kuta - Bali


Vi Ai Pi is a bar, club and restaurant located next to Sky Garden in Kuta, Bali. When it opened it brought a little modernity into Kuta's nightlife, then dominated by Paddy's, Bounty and MBargo. The design is stylish, especially on the first floor, and the sound system great. Unfortunately, it is probably not as popular as expected; if no special events are on, the first floor will probably remain empty, while the second one, with dance floor music (all the famous hits), has only a few wandering guests. To spice things up a little, they may have sexy bikini dancers on once in a while (usually Javanese girl, something foreign). For those used to party in Jakarta. it is very mild and harmless.  


Vi Ai Pi is established at September 4th 2008 as Tapaz Bar. After 3 years it's concept was changed to Western and Italian Restaurant, with Vi Ai Pi Club and Lounge on the 2nd floor, also adding the Under Ground Bar, Located at the back of Vi Ai Pi. Vi Ai Pi opens every day from 11:00 am until 3:00 am. Located in Jalan Legian next to Bali Memorial, they provide big free parking space right behind their restaurant for all their customers. They serve Italian, Western and Indonesian cuisines, with price between 35K and 200K. The restaurant has capacity of 200 persons (sitting), while the club fits 400 400 persons (standing).
