Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

This is not the first time I have been to Poppies and I will return whenever I head into Kuta. It has a beautiful garden setting where you can escape the heat and the craziness of Kuta, and the food is delicious! I had the...guacamole dish and it was so yummy! Big thanks to Kadek, who was a warm, friendly and attentive waitress too!More

Please keep venturing into Kuta - it's not all bad, and is quieter these days! Will pass your compliments on to Kadek, although we have 2 waitresses with that name!

Lush greenery setting that makes the place lovely to begin with. Food tastes great; ordered the rice table that had a lot of variety.

Thank you for coming to Poppies Restaurant!

Reviewed 22 October 2023

Nestled behind a wall hidden off Poppies one lane. this is a 50 year old restaurant and is quite popular. You dine in a beautiful well maintained garden. We came on a Sunday night at 7 pm and there appeared to be no unoccupied tables....Good thing we reserved, and at my request we had a table adjacent to the fish pond. So the atmosphere is splendid and very romantic. While the food was pretty good, nothing was outstanding. The menu is varied with Indonesian, Asian fusion and western dishes. Because they were so busy the service was a bit slow, but the staff worked very hard and were quite friendly. All in all, it was a pleasant evening. Prices are in the mid range. It is an institution in Kuta, so it's definitely worth a try. If you go for dinner be sure to make an online reservation.More

What a beautiful restaurant when we eventually found it. Hidden down Poppies Lane 1. We were shown to our table and found there was plenty of choice on the menu. I opted for the spring rolls with 3 sauces all of which added to the...taste. I chose Tongseng Kambing for my main which was Lamb with rice and vegetables and again really tasty. All this was washed down with a large bottle of the local beer - Bintang Very reasonable prices and excellent valueMore

It took us a while to find this place simply because we had no idea where on Poppies Lane 1 it was. When we found it, it looked like a brick walled home from the outside however on the inside it was a different matter....As it was mid afternoon and very hot, we decided to have a drink but advised the staff we were coming back for evening meal. When we went back later that evening they asked if we had a reservation. At no stage did they say you needed one earlier in the day but was the place was mainly empty, we were given a table. Considering it was not overly busy, it took a while for them to come and ask us about drinks, and similarly with food. When the food arrived it was plentiful and again very tasty. My daughter likes her spice so her food was cooked accordingly, myself i dont like spice so my dish had no spice in at all. My wife had a curry which she said was just right. Overall the food was spot on, the environment was beautiful and the whole experience was enjoyable. FYI you are sitting outside however cover is available.More

What a beautiful place to have lunch. We stumbled across this place after walking down Poppies Lane and were (4 adults and one 19 month toddler) so pleased we stopped here. All 4 of our main dishes were excellent and the service was perfect too,...providing our toddler with a small rice dish on the house, when he woke up towards the end of our meal was a nice touch. Good value for such a secluded and beauty location in a courtyard. I personally recommend their Nasi Goreng!More

Sad to write this but if I don’t then would not like to hear/see someone has been exposed. I STRONGLY ADVISE Trip Advisor to return and reassess. We gave them the opportunity of moving us to another table only to again see (come in contact...with a certain vermin) leaving us no choice but to leave. The place is dark and on the floor was plenty of certain uninvited guests. Please look up below and take note. Leptospirosis (Weil's disease) Horrendous experience.More

Historical restaurant in Kuta not far from main road but segregated from chaos. Food was not as good as expected, except for the garlic prawns which were very good. Even if Kuta is maybe not the best place for dinner I’d not suggest this restaurant

A Great Place It has been many years since we have been to Poppies. We are staying a few nights in Legian and decided to revisit Poppies. It seems little has changed since my last Poppies meal around 30 yrs ago. It still offers great...food, good value, and a magnificent Bali garden. We opted for Indonesian food. The chicken satay sticks were yum. We could not fault Poppies. We will not leave it so long to return. Good on you team for building such a long standing brand.More
