I almost forgot with my friend at the mandapa, he shared how Balinese people live, in harmony with the upper, middle and lower nature. Our assistant Rangga gave us something that we will always remember. he told us how balinese people live side by side with the environment. with the food he serves is very charming and delicious. he also knows Tagalog, I was quite surprised. So far, I'm very happy. will come back to visit him. can't wait to find out what interesting things he knows.

Excellent from start to finish

We had the 10 course tasting menu. Not cheap for Indonesian pricing but the whole thing is excellently done.

Perfect setting, delicious food and fantastic service from arriving at the hotel to leaving after the dinner.

Our waitress was Delia who was excellent. Friendly, smiley and informative. 10/10.

Would definitely recommend this place to anyone wanting a romantic luxurious meal.

We were not staying in Mandapa but in a hotel nearby and we have decided to treat ourselves for a nice dinner. When we arrived we were free upgraded to a private “kubu” and our waitress Sawitri took an exceptional care of us - First Class! The food quality was amazing and overall we have had an incredible experience.

We went for the Kubu experience, which is a great 10 course menu. It is made with local ingredients and is a mix of local dishes and food i could find back home. Additionally we had a accompanying local drinks and cocktails which paired nicely with the food.

Staff was very nice, knowledgeable and fast to cater to our wishes.

The 10 courses took about 3 hours to finish, which was the perfect duration.

We will come back if we come to Bali again.
