Mrs and I stopped in for lunch. We started with plain roti canai. The two roti were delicious with the three sauces. Mrs ordered off the lunch menu and had the Sambal squid rice plate. The plate also pickled veggie, bean spouts, half of a broiled egg, tofu, chicken broth, and white rice. Mrs said everything were delicious. The squid was not chewy and not too spicey. I ordered Hainenese fried chicken rice plate off the regular menu. It came with chicken broth, bean spouts, three sauces, and chicken flavored rice. The bone in chicken pieces were flavorful and crispy. The chicken tasted really good, especially with the sauces. However, it was a skinny chicken with not much meat. Table service was friendly and efficient. Prices were affordable. Free parking sports were plentiful with a two stories garage next door.

Yummy food, will need to go again soon. Ordered green beans with minced chicken Mixed satay with chicken and beef. Ordered side of chicken rice and coconut rice. Ordered nasi lemak curry chicken. All very tasty dishes.

A solid 3.5 stars for the food but I'll round it up to a 4 because our server Angie was nice and accommodating. We got there at 12 noon and shockingly it wasn't busy at all. The food also came out a little too fast, which I'm not complaining about but I think my beef rendang wasn't a fresh batch. I understand that this dish takes a long time to make because they slow cook their beef but I think it was out for a while. We started off with their curry chicken roti. The roti was soft & it was fresh. The sauces that were on the side were not good. I prefer to just dip it in the beef rendang. The chicken itself was forgettable & dry. I could've just ordered a plain roti. For our mains we got the beef rendang & salted egg prawns. The sauce on the rendang was delicious but the beef itself wasn't that tendered and melt in your mouth. & it was kind of dry too. They either cooked it too long or the batch wasn't fresh. The prawns were lightly fried and the batter was seasoned to perfection. The salty egg sauce added extra flavor to the dish. Overall, it was a good experience. Food was solid, service was great and the place was clean & well put together. Will I come back? Yes.

Great food and service here at papparich. The ladies who took my order was extremely nice and patient. Came on a Wednesday night around 8pm and ordered 2 dishes. They came out extremely fast (under 10 min). Love their chicken curry. Filled with flavors and the roti is soo crispy and yum. Also ordered their beef rendang. Both weren't super spicy. Parking lot at the complex is hard to find a spot but on weekdays it's super easy!

OMG this place is sooo good!! We came after a recommendation from a friend and it did not disappoint! Everyone inside was very friendly and helpful with choosing what to order. We got the beef rendang with roti, which was super flavorful but there were only a few pieces of meat, which was hard to share with many people. I have gone back and just ordered the beef rendang dish which has a lot more meat, which is better for sharing. However, the roti platter does let you sample multiple different flavor. My go-to dishes are the fried eggplant and slizzing tofu. These dishes are sooooo tasty with amazing sauce and perfectly complement the dishes. I looove a ton of sauce on my food so these dishes definitely deliver and taste very homey. Lastly, the hainese chicken is a staple. They give a good amount of chicken that was easily shareable and tasted exactly how I wanted it to! 10/10 for all the dishes! I've already been back a few times after with friends and can't wait to be back to try more dishes!

My cousin's uncle (on her dad's side) recommended we go here since I've never been before and they said this was their favorite spot for malaysian food. My cousin who had been to Singapore said she liked this place also because their food reminded her a little of the food she had in Singapore. We came for a Sunday lunch and it was somewhat busy, they had several tables open but the groups that came in were of at least 4 people. There was probably 1-2 people serving but I only saw 1 person taking orders and she was going to each table that just got saw to take everyone's orders on her Ipad. We had asked for water and that took a while to get brought out to us but eventually we got cups of water and bowls/ utensils then the food started coming out. We had also asked for small sharing bowls 3 times to 2 different people that never got brought out because we wanted to share the Laksa but eventually someone brought out some bowls when they saw we were trying to share the Laksa. I'd come back here but maybe try to go on a non-busy hours of operation so we can potentially get better service.

PappaRich is my favorite Malaysian restaurant in town! The waiters are incredibly kind, the service is fast, the restaurant is always kept clean, and the food is delicious! This time around, I brought a friend to try it out for her first time! We got the sizzling tofu, the char kway teow, and the roti. Everything was a 10/10! The sizzling tofu was slightly crispy on the outside and so silky inside. The roti was flaky and I loved the variety of curries to dip it in. Everything was seasoned super well. I am always excited to come back here!

Papparich has a nice interior decoration. Staff was very friendly and service was excellent. Food came out very quick since it was a Monday night. Ordered the plain roti canai; came with 3 sauces. Enjoyed this! Tofu came out on a sizzling plate, but it wasn't sizzling :/ Tasted alright Was disappointed with the hokkien mee. The color was off (usually darker) and it wasn't savory enough. Highlight of the dinner was the Fried Hainanese chicken. Super delicious! Great flavor, juicy chicken, crispy skin, and a variety of sauces! Would mainly come back for the roti, fried Hainanese chicken, and to try other dishes.

Such an underrated spot for such amazing food. I haven't heard much talk about Papparich ever since their opening, but it's a solid spot for Malaysian food. Their milk tea was bold and not too sweet. Hainan Chicken was buttery soft, but could use a bit more flavor in the sauce. Beef Rendang was good, but a tad salty. My most favorite entree of the night was the Seafood Laksa. So so so so flavorful, generous portions, and came with a bunch of proteins. The noodles tasted great even when I reheated it the next day. I am also obsessed with the pickled vegetables they give. It tastes a bit like curry, and it complements the heavier dishes perfectly. I might just buy a jar to keep at home. One small thing is that they cooked our food at lightning speed and brought out the three entrees at the same time even before we got appetizers. This made the atmosphere feel a bit rushed and a bit overwhelming, since you had to try everything before it gets cold. I would suggest telling them to pace the entrees, especially if it's not too busy when you go.
