2080 Burger Bali: Heru Dwi Soesilo and the Sanur Branch in Denpasar
Who owns Bali's award-winning burger brand, what the 20/80 name means, why its brisket smokes for up to 18 hours, and where to eat it in Denpasar.
2080 Burger is a Bali-born burger brand owned by Heru Dwi Soesilo, and its only Denpasar branch is in Sanur, at Jl. Danau Poso No. 100. The name is the patty: 20% fat, 80% Australian beef. The brisket smokes for up to 18 hours, the rest goes over charcoal, and in October 2025 the brand won Best Western Restaurant at the Exquisite Awards 2025. For a serious burger inside Denpasar city limits, Sanur is where I would send you.
One rumour to clear up first. Some searches link chef William Wongso to a Denpasar burger spot called William’s Gourmet. I found no trace of that restaurant, or of any burger business of his. Wongso is known as an ambassador for traditional Indonesian cooking, not burgers. The Bali burger brand with a documented owner, an award and a Denpasar address is 2080 Burger, and it is the subject of this profile.

Who owns 2080 Burger?
Heru Dwi Soesilo is the owner and co-founder of 2080 Burger, according to Baliwara (April 2024) and Bisnis.com (November 2022). The sources describe him as the entrepreneur behind the business, not its chef. I could not verify what he did before 2080 Burger, so I will not guess.
In April 2024 he took his burgers to an international stage. 2080 Burger was a food provider for the gala dinner of the 57th APEC SMEWG meeting (Small and Medium Enterprises Working Group), held on 24 and 25 April 2024 in Nusa Dua. He told Baliwara: “Very happy to represent Indonesian culinary small businesses and see 2080 Burger enjoyed by the delegates” (translated from Indonesian).
The story: from Uluwatu surfers to an award
2080 Burger started in 2019 serving the surfing community in Uluwatu, then survived the pandemic on WhatsApp orders before joining GoFood in 2020. Baliwara and Bisnis.com both give 2019 as the start, and Bisnis says October 2019. The brand’s own site says it was established in 2020, so the opening date depends on how you count.
The pandemic could have ended it. Bali’s tourist trade collapsed, and a burger shop built for surfers lost its customers overnight. The team took orders by WhatsApp, then moved onto GoFood, the delivery app of Gojek, in 2020, according to Baliwara.
Recognition followed. The ESB case study says the brand is listed among the Top 80 Asia Resto & Hotels by asiatop80.com and runs the ESB point-of-sale system across its branches. Then, in an article dated 20 October 2025, Exquisite Taste Magazine named 2080 Burger the winner of Best Western Restaurant at the Exquisite Awards 2025.
The 2080 concept: 20/80 beef and 18-hour smoked brisket
The 2080 concept rests on two things: a 20% fat, 80% meat patty of Australian beef, and brisket smoked for up to 18 hours. The ESB case study and Bisnis.com both explain the ratio behind the name. Twenty percent is a classic burger-blend ratio, fatty enough to stay juicy over a hot grill, and the brand made it the name on the sign.

Smoked brisket burger in Bali
2080 Burger’s smoked brisket is cooked for up to 18 hours, per Exquisite Taste Magazine (October 2025). That brisket goes into the Black Mamba burger and the 18h Smoked Brisket Platter, both on the official menu. Eighteen hours is competition-barbecue territory. It is the reason I would order the Black Mamba here before any of the classic cheeseburgers.

Charcoal grilling
The kitchen grills beef, chicken, pork and vegetables over charcoal, according to the same Exquisite Taste article. Charcoal puts smoke into the crust. Because pork goes on the same grill, halal diners should read the FAQ below before ordering.

The 2080 Burger menu
The 2080 Burger menu mixes classic cheeseburgers with named signature burgers and a smoked brisket platter. These are the names listed on the official site as of 8 October 2026:
- El Matador
- I’m Hungry
- Say Cheese
- Nano Nano
- Bleu Cheese
- Black Mamba, with smoked brisket
- Metaverse
- The Classic Cheese
- The Classic Chicken
- Fire Dragon
- 18h Smoked Brisket Platter
The official site lists no prices, and I found no dated menu or delivery listing to quote from. I would rather leave the prices out than print a wrong figure. Check the GoFood listing or ask the branch before you go.
2080 Burger Sanur: address, hours and getting there
The Denpasar branch of 2080 Burger is 2080 Burger x Cibo Pasta House, Jl. Danau Poso No. 100, Sanur, Denpasar Selatan, Bali 80228, phone +62 822 4761 2626. Sanur is part of the city of Denpasar, on its south-east coast, so this is the only branch on the brand’s official list that lies within city limits.

| Day | Hours (per Chope) |
|---|---|
| Monday to Wednesday | 10:00 to 23:00 |
| Thursday to Sunday | 10:00 to midnight |
2080 Burger Sanur opening hours per Chope: Mon-Wed 10am-11pm, Thu-Sun 10am-midnight (Table: Burger Breton, original work; data: Chope listing checked 8 Oct 2026. FR locale currently uses a list: convert to a table for consistency)
These hours come from a single source, the Chope booking listing, checked on 8 October 2026. Call the branch before a late visit. The branch shares its space and name with Cibo Pasta House; I could not confirm how the two businesses are related.

Other 2080 Burger branches in Bali and Jakarta
The official 2080 Burger site lists four branches: Uluwatu, Sanur, Seminyak and Jakarta Ancol, as checked on 8 October 2026.
| Branch | Address (official site) |
|---|---|
| Uluwatu | Jl. Raya Uluwatu 8B, Banjar Bakung Sari, Ungasan, Bali 80361 |
| Sanur (Denpasar) | Jl. Danau Poso No. 100, Sanur, Denpasar Selatan, Bali 80228 |
| Seminyak | Jl. Mertanadi No. 90A, Kuta Utara, Badung 80361 |
| Jakarta Ancol | Beach City Entertainment Center, Jl. Pantai Karnaval Ancol, Jakarta Utara 14430 |
The four 2080 Burger branches on the official site as of 8 October 2026: Uluwatu, Sanur, Seminyak and Jakarta Ancol (Table: Burger Breton, original work; data: 2080burger.com checked 8 Oct 2026)
Other sources list more outlets. Exquisite Taste Magazine (October 2025) names Uluwatu, Pererenan, Seminyak, Nusa Dua and Sanur. The Seminyak entry is also untidy: the official address on Jl. Mertanadi is in Kuta Utara, north of Seminyak proper. Branch lists change, so I treat the official site as the reference. For more burgers in the capital, see our Jakarta burger restaurants hub.
Other burgers in Denpasar: Kandi Burger
Kandi Burger is the other name to know for the best burger in Denpasar: homemade burgers served in a Balinese family house with local sambals. It sits at Jl. Gunung Welirang No. 19 C, Pemecutan Klod, Denpasar Barat. The burgers come with sambal terasi, sambal matah and sambal merah, per detikBali (1 February 2025) and NomNom Bali.

| Kandi Burger | Price (detikBali, Feb 2025) |

| Cheese Burger | IDR 37,000 |
| Fire Chicken Burger | IDR 42,000 |
| Beef Bacon Burger | IDR 43,000 |
| Kandi Burger | IDR 48,000 |
Kandi Burger prices in Denpasar, February 2025: IDR 35,000 (Classic) to IDR 48,000 (Kandi Burger), about US$2.15 to US$2.95 (Chart: Burger Breton, original work, rendered via QuickChart (export SVG to src/assets/restaurants-denpasar/kandi-burger-prices-denpasar-chart.svg, 700x400, lazy); data: detikBali, 1 Feb 2025. Currency conversions are approximate and must be checked against the rate on the publication date. Place it after the existing Kandi price table)
My take: go to Sanur for smoke and charcoal, and go to Kandi for a burger with a Balinese accent and a price you can check. All our picks for the city are on the Denpasar burger restaurants hub.
How I built this profile
I built this profile from the official 2080 Burger site, the Chope listing, Indonesian business press (Baliwara, Bisnis.com), Exquisite Taste Magazine and the ESB case study, all checked on 8 October 2026. Where sources disagree, on the founding year, the branch list or the Seminyak address, I say so and give the official site priority. I left out anything I could not verify: menu prices, the names of other co-founders and the founder’s earlier career.
