Mopi's Place

The liveliest restaurant, bar, and live-music venue in Moni village, serving curry chicken, gado-gado, burgers, local coffee, and a live band at night.

Located at Koanara, 52 km along the Ende–Maumere road, this is Moni's most-reviewed restaurant, with about 160 Tripadvisor reviews and a rating of 4.3. It combines a restaurant, bar, and performance space, and live bands often play in the evening. Travelers from across the village gather here, and the music can be loud. The menu includes Indonesian dishes such as curry chicken and gado-gado, as well as Western-style light meals like burgers and wraps, plus vegetarian options. It also offers local coffee, moke (a local palm wine), and Espresso Moke, which blends the two. Some diners feel it is better for coffee and music than for food, which they find less impressive than its presentation. Open until around 10 p.m., priced mid-range for the village.
