National Kitchen by Violet Oon Singapore Reviews
Good quality food
I was worried that Violet Oon would be a spoiled staple for tourist but was pleasantly surprised with the quality of food. I thought their sambal and the satay sauce was unique and familiar at the same time, same with the Hainanese Chicken. I also en

Great lunch!
My wife and I had a great meal here. It's everything it promises in terms of elevated traditional peranakan cooking. Very high level of service and food. Staff were great, drinks great, decor fascinating, and most importantly prices were incredi
Delicious food
I have visited and enjoyed two of your three restaurants, food absolutely delicious, interesting, beautifully presented and good portion sizes especially for Singapore.
Birthday Dinner for Two
Lovely venue for our celebration. Great menu choices available and helpful staff. It would be helpful to provide a location map on your website for within the building although we may have missed signage due to the Formula One race being set up.
Extraordinary food and just an overall wonderful experience.
We had the chicken satay skewers which were great, a fried snapper with chilies and a beef shin dish which was next level cooking! The staff were also so kind and attentive. The actual restaurant took a bit of time to find as it is on the second leve
Amazing food but service was just okay
The food was very authentic and my whole family enjoyed every single dish we have ordered. The waitstaff was trained at different level, one female waitstaff tried to rush through between my chair and the one behind my back while I was drinking water
Colonial hidden gem
This is a true hidden gem in the building of the national Gallery, third floor. It is the most “traditional colonial” restaurant in Singapore. Not only the interior and atmosphere but also the changing menu. It is a restaurant to return.
Cool dining
Upmarket food and drink in a well designed space. And the National Gallery of Singapore is a fantastic city attraction to visit anyway! We visited from Sydney.
Definitely going back for the afternoon tea when I'm back
Definitely going back for the afternoon tea when I'm back to Singapore! Very cool small restaurant inside of the National Gallery. I reserved this place roughly a month and half before. It was highly recommended in my research. I would recomme

*3.5 stars We came across the restaurant while at the National Gallery, and decided to have their afternoon tea. Price-wise, it's quite reasonable: $66 Singaporean dollars for two people. You each get to pick a drink (a coffee drink or a pot of
We made reservations here before we went on vacation here
We made reservations here before we went on vacation here and it's located in the National Gallery. Kind of hard to get into at night when everything is closed, you really have to walk through the gallery. But it's a nice restaurant with su
Food was great, service was OK
The food was great as was expected. The satay was delicious and so were the Kueh Pie Tee and Rendang. These are all strong standards and I am glad they have maintained it. Ther service though - seemed rushed. We were there for the 1.30pm lunch slot b
Above and Beyond Expectations
Violet Oon has been a consistently high quality choice of restaurant I love bringing foreign visitors to. The National Gallery outlet combines art and historical experience on top of a heritage meals - no brainer if you have one night to impress your
Reliable satay
Chicken satay always a winner,finding smaller mains difficult. Opted for chile potatoes, very hot pots a bit hard. Menu needs a refresh same since 2022. Too many noisy children
Worthwhile experience in a beautiful space
It was our first true introduction to Peranakan food, and boy was it tasty! The teas we selected were a great accompaniment and nice that it was unlimited. The food was nicely presented and the service attentive. I would highly recommend this exper
Just not right…
Something that could be great but isn’t. Service - friendly and helpful. However, the additional roti came out after the meals. That felt weird. Furthermore they tried to rush us to order quickly. That’s not a nice experience in a venue like thi
Superb experience that surpasses my expectation!
It was definitely a great birthday experience for my auntie! As I was not aware of the booking reservation, I went ahead without booking and luckily, there were some tables that were no show, and we managed to get in! The food was superb and we eve
Superb Parent’s Anniversary Lunch

Enjoyed a fantastic meal here on our last night in Singapore. The place is stunning and the food was delicious. Our waitress was very helpful and prevented us from over ordering!! Would definitely recommend
Eating out in Singapore
We discovered this restaurant online before flying to Singapore, and made a reservation. There didn't seem to be many slots available, so it seemed that it would be popular. It was busy when we arrived and there were no spare tables, but by the time
Dinner!
The food is amazing! Having lived in Singapore for a few years and now visiting from Sydney Australia, I can say this restaurant provides a really good selection of Singaporean favourites on the menu, both meals and drinks. The service was exceptiona
Culture and cuisine
My family just visited Singapore on holiday and was recommended to visit this restaurant from the many guide books I read. There are 2 x sittings for lunch, so we booked the later session so we weren't rushed. We arrived 15mins early for our 1.30pm
Very good experience
amazing food in a beautiful place. The service was excellent. better to book a few days before to be sure to have a table.
Continued Excellence
The food, atmosphere and service continue to be excellent here. Krishnan welcomed me and set me with a drink on the balcony as I waited for a friend to arrive, and made our experience special. The flavors, presentation, dining room all contributed to
Great Food for Peranakan Food
I managed to have a table for this great experience with this great peranakan restaurant. As I walked in to the restaurant has been greeted by Mr. Krishnan - The Host. But unfortunately, there is a group of people that dining and most of them is actu

Visiting my daughter in Singapore and wanted to take her and her boyfriend for a special night out and she chose here. Beautiful venue, really nice food but the service was confusing/ dreadful. After being seated it took 15 mins before our drinks ord
Very disappointing.
Very disappointing. One main course consisted of a small, dry fish fillet smothered with a very spicy sauce that lacked any subtlety. The other consisted on a small baked fish with an overly salty sauce. Hugely overpriced as well. To the restaurant c
Book your table NOW!
There was a problem with the table which Krishnan resolved - well done. Fantastic food. The decor is top 1930 deco. You must book well in advance as it is quite a small restaurant. I recommend 'beef randang ' and beer.
We had 4 people during the lunch hr.
Beautiful place inside the National Gallery. I had the Dry Laska which was good. Chicken wing made with/shrimp paste was tasty. Mixed vegetables w/Laska sauce, it was just ok. My friends had shrimp fried rice & the Cod w/Laska. Portions are small
Wonderful service everyone was attentive and considerate to
Wonderful service everyone was attentive and considerate to our spice and seafood tolerance. Truly authentic taste of Singapore
We were a party of 12 on December 8,2023 from the USA.
The place was elegant and beautiful, The service was polite and warm. We were advised by the head waiter who is Filipino as to what to order. However what should have been the main star of the evening was a complete letdown. The food was just plai

Tucked away on the 2nd floor of the National Gallery, this restaurant serves both great and good dishes. I think the star of the menu are the satays, succulent chicken with absolutely gorgeous peanut sauce. The sweet & sour fish was also very goo

This was the best restaurant of our entire three week vacation. Service was exceptional and the food was delicious. The prawns were scrumptious. They give you a small treat to taste to see what your tolerance to hot chili is in the beginning so we di
Delicious lunch spot in the National Gallery.
We went on a rainy day and walked around the museum afterwards. Definitely make a reservation in advance, especially for lunch. The chicken rice and soup was delicious as well as the tapioca cake and black rice dessert. Cannot recommend this place en

Delicious dinner for our wedding anniversary
Beef rendang was delicious! Service was great. They even printed a photo for us to take home as a memento of our visit.
poor service, covenience food
service was poor, ok, but not friendly, food was standard convenience food - overpriced - not worth to visit
Beware! Totally Unprofessional Restaurant!!
Decided to bring overseas friends to Violet Oon for a local dinner. Booked table for 6 pax, more than a month ago. Then one of our friends could not make it. I called the restaurant to inform them of this change to 5 pax. Over the phone, I was told
Mediocre in nice setting
Mediocre food in a nice setting. Food generally lacking flavour a depth, with the iced tea beverage overly sweet and bland.
Wonderful experience
Excellent food wonderful atmosphere and very friendly staff. This was our first time at this restaurant and we were not familiar With the cuisine and portions. The waiters were really friendly with ordering suggestions. Sophisticated but down to eart

A Restaurant for Precious Guests
Food, environment and many elements are great tradition. Stuffs are very helpful, particular a handsome young gentleman (I am so so sorry forget to inquire his name, with Philippine ascent), he is really attentive and helpful with ordering, food serv

Let's say Peter has a great morning and decides to take his three friends to National Kitchen by Violet Oon Singapore at 6 PM the same day.
He checks the restaurant's website and sees that no reservations are available. He then looks at the National Kitchen by Violet Oon Singapore page on AppointmentTrader, but finds that there are no user postings either.
That's where the community-driven bid process comes in.
Peter can place a bid on AppointmentTrader, which serves as a reward for any community member who chooses to work on securing the reservation. AT then notifies experienced users who may be able to help.
Step-by-Step Process
1.) Setting a Reward (Bid)
* AppointmentTrader uses historical data to recommend a reasonable reward amount for securing a reservation - let's say $100.
* Peter really wants to go, so he increases the bid (or reward) to $200.
* At this stage, the reservation does not exist yet.
2.) A Community User Picks Up the Bid
* ElaborateHouse74, an experienced AT user, has a strong track record of successfully securing reservations and low refund requests, they receive a notification about Peter's bid.
* ElaborateHouse74 picks up the bid, meaning they will now work on securing the reservation.
* Peter can now talk to ElaborateHouse74 for any questions Peter may have as ElaborateHouse74 user fills the bid.
3.) Finding the Reservation
* ElaborateHouse74 now uses their connections at National Kitchen by Violet Oon Singapore to secure the table.
* If they successfully get the 6 PM table for four, Peter receives a confirmation that the reservation has been secured.
* If ElaborateHouse74 fails to secure the reservation, the bid is returned to the pool so another user can try.
4.) Payment & Protection
* Once the reservation is secured, ElaborateHouse74 receives the $200 reward which is credited to ElaborateHouse74's AT balance, where users manage their own funds and can withdraw via available payout options such as bank transfer, PayPal, or Zelle.
* Peter can now enjoy the dinner with his friends at National Kitchen by Violet Oon Singapore!
