Tried Paris Van Java at Lucky Plaza and had a great experience. The staff were friendly and the service was fast. I ordered the ayam goreng balado, rendang, pecel, and batagor (Indonesian dumplings) — all very delicious. The food came all at once, which was convenient. It was my first time trying batagor, and I really enjoyed it. If I had one small wish, it would be for the sambal to be a notch spicier. Other than that, everything hit the spot. Will definitely return!

Cozy atmosphere, accompanied by delicious Indonesian Food. Definitely will come back again. Ms, Triyana who assisted us is very friendly and welcoming.

A good one-time visit, but the menu doesn’t quite spark enough excitement for frequent returns. Tucked within the iconic Lucky Plaza, Paris Van Java greets you with a welcoming, clean look and bright, spacious decor. Visually inviting, pretty without being overdone. I visited on a quiet Tuesday around 5 PM, and the restaurant was empty. The service, while polite, lacked warmth. When asked for recommendations, responses were brief and flat. It felt like a missed opportunity to connect. The standout was definitely the Nasi Ayam Penyet—the sambal was punchy and addictive, and the urap added a nice contrast of textures. The Bakso and bakmie had depth and warmth but leaned too salty for my preference. Batagor was lightly crisped and served in a portion that felt more like a teaser than a plate—but it did its job as a satisfying opener. Overall, a good balance of comfort and familiarity in each dish. Every plate was visually appealing—clean, well-arranged, and appetizing. Their use of traditional serveware, especially the refillable teapot, added a charming touch. Prices here are reasonable, especially compared to other Indonesian spots that have hiked up costs over time. Portions could be slightly more generous for certain items, but on the whole, it offers a fair deal for casual dining in Orchard. Final Verdict: Paris Van Java delivers decent Indonesian fare in a pleasant setting. While the food is flavorful and well-presented, the lack of warmth and enthusiasm in service makes it feel more functional than memorable. > Come for the sambal and cozy decor, stay if you’re craving Indonesian comfort food—just don’t expect fireworks.

It's my 3rd time here and I cannot recommend this restaurant enough. If you wanna get a taste of authentic indo (mostly javanese) cuisines that aren't commonly found in sg (gudeg + krecek, empal gentong), you MUST visit Manise. Their sate ayam is AMAZING. Gudeg & krecek has been our go to order as well. This time we tried empal gentong, rawon, bubur ayam, they're also very good, would definitely come for the empal gentong. Mendoan & bakwan are also good and they're served with rawit ijo 😭🫶, even the tempe mendoan got that dark edges which look exactly the tempe you'll find anywhere in Java. Update: Nasi gorengnya enak banget. The best in SG so far for me 😭

A lot of Javanese-Indonesian food on their menu that I did not expect to find in Singapore, such as Sate Madura, Empal Gentong and Gudeg. For their Nasi Liwet, the rice was fragrant and fried chicken was hot and fall-off-the-bone tender. Very satisfied.

Found a hidden gem in Lucky Plaza! I tried the Gudeg and Empal Gentong and both were fantastic. Tahu isi have green Chilli which is a big plus as well. It seems to be a family-run place, they’re very kind and always smiling.

Decent Indonesian food, alright but not the best. Bakso Pangsit Kuah was great, very flavourful and the meatballs were delectable. Tahu Kupat was a standout, but the Chicken Fried Rice could be seasoned better. Overall, worth a try if you’re looking for decent authentic Indonesian cuisine in Lucky Plaza. food 4/5 service 4/5 ambience 2.5/5

I adore the food here. Second visit today. Tried their bubur Ayam 😍✨ Food made with love. Their Ayam Penyet, Nasi is also amazing. Freshly made and satisfying to enjoy. …

another great option of Indonesian food in lucky plaza. first time seeing gudeg in SG and it doesn't disappoint. it's of the dry type and came together with the krecek and opor ayam. bakwan jagung was crispy and enjoyable too. but our favorite was the sate ayam. the chunks of meat were huge and tender and we really enjoyed the peanut sauce. price is affordable for the quality and portion of the food!

One of my favorite Indonesian restaurants! Authentic and delicious Indonesian food with reasonable price. No GST and service charge added! Fell in love with their food from the first try in June 2024, coming back for more and they don’t disappoint. My personal favorites are Nasi Liwet Ayam, Gudeg, Nasi Goreng, Tahu Kupat and Rawon. The place is a little hard to find because it’s located in the back, not far from level 3 toilet, but really worth the search. Highly recommended!
