Finally an Indonesian restaurant which located not far away from Manchester!FoodThe food was amazing. I ordered the Nasi Campur and it was delicious. The pork was so nice and delicious, and the broth was so warm and soothing. My friends had Babi Panggang and they said it was amazing as well. If you like spicy, ask for their sambal andaliman. It's spicy, fragrant, and delicious. I would love to come back next time for another food on the menu to try.Atmosphere and serviceIt's a small restaurant which has a very homey ambiance. The staff were super nice and polite. The chef said hi to us as well. We love this place.

This restaurant is a little gem ? from the warm welcome to the fantastic food ? highly recommended you visit and check it out for yourself. Every bite was a flavour explosion, so moorish. Essential to book your table in advance to avoid disappointment.

Absolutely amazing food, as always. The food is always 5/5 and is exactly like the Balinese food I sampled whilst travelling. Meals including drinks are very fairly priced. I wouldn’t expect the fastest service, however this is absolutely because of the food being hand made in the kitchen - and worth the wait! Easily my favourite restaurant in the area. I’ve been 5+ times now and it’s delicious every time.

I love the details of authentic ornaments and wall decoration that they added to the restaurant! The food is AMAZING! I ordered Babi Panggang, it definitely reminds me of the one I had in Indonesia, the roast pork, the soup, the andaliman sauce, and the sambal. I’m just sad that it’s only opened at dinner time.

Visited Kota Lapo for a family meal and could not have wished for more - it's a lovely little restaurant with brilliant staff, great service and an authentic menu which includes some really tasty dishes. All food is homemade, fresh and hot and cooked to perfection - the Bao Buns in particular were amazing! Staff are warm and welcoming and very accomodating. Give this place a try, you won't regret it.Kid-friendliness: We took our Daughter who was very well looked after and treated amazingly well.

Lovely atmosphere, great service, combined with fresh, authentic food makes this one of my favourite restaurants to visit, the Beef Rendang is to die for. Will be going back very soon!

Lovely little spot right in the centre of Hadfield. Food is fresh and tasty, all homemade. Service is brilliant and staff are friendly and helpful, prices are very reasonable and there is a lovely cosy and authentic atmosphere. I would definitely recommend this place, it's a fantastic addition to the area.
I feel harsh rating this place so badly, and was really shocked at how disappointing it was after looking at all the amazing reviews, but it was really poor.The service was slow, awkward and not very warm or inviting, the food I had was average at best. The crispy chicken wontons smelt like fish and tasted processed. Then the Sate Ayam was quite small, again seemed like it was bought in rather than made onsite, the rice "cakes" were one of the worst things I've ever eaten. Like eating a sheet of kitchen towel that had been soaked in water, absolutely no flavour and even covered in sauce it's like it made flavour disappear, other people in our group felt the same. The sauce with the main was really watery too.The pork bun was quite nice, that for me was the only highlight, and the restaurant itself is quite cute and comfy, but the food and service were just not up to par with other places in the area, will not be going back.

We ate here on Champions League finals night - so - the restaurant was very quiet but the food was amazing. Fresh, hot and so, so tasty. Given that the restaurant was quiet the service was a little slow, this would be my only criticism when looking at the bigger picture, but it was a hot night and we were under no time pressure so it wasn't a problem for us. We'd definitely go back and would not hesitate to recommend on the back of our experience at the weekend.

A little gem of a restaurant. Wonderful Indonesian food, great attentive staff, good service and great value. We had a fantastic birthday meal for six - couldn't be better :-)
