Fantastic ambience, service, and food! The goat cheese and honey mousse is excellent as is the Chilli crab spaghettini. I would visit again, probably one Sunday to catch the live jazz.

Lovely setting and food is good. But it is overpriced and the service is slow. It took 45 minutes for our drinks to arrive. However, food was served soon afterwards.

It's quiet setting deep in the botanical gardens makes for a special experience. Especially when taking guests that are visiting SG to dinner. Nice restaurant and good service but still relaxed and down to earth. Great for friends, family with kids or even a date.

Probably the best truffle fries in town. However, can't say the same for the other dishes. Qty & quality just wasn't up to the expectations I had for the price. Overall rating: So-so , nothing memorable

Good customer service with excellent ambience. The waitress were very attentive and patience. We were a big group and had guest from Taiwan that only spoke Chinese. Waitresses took the time to explain the menu to them. They were also very good with kids and offered them activity sheets to doodle while waiting for their meals.

I had to ask for service repeatedly even though we were the only other table occupied. The toilet was smelly and there was no seat cover!

Location is far away from the city crowd. The ambience is good, pretty noisy when there is a big crowd of about 10 - 12 people. Food nicely presented but should make improvement in proper setting on table as well as proper menu.

We had a very lovely evening at the Halia on F1 weekend. The starters in particular were absolutely delicious - beyond our expectations. Faizal was our waiter and provided attentive and knowledgeable service throughout. Would definitely come back.

Great ambience, better to go in the evenings. They serve very interesting cocktails. The chili crab spaghetti and prawn salad are must haves! The alfresco does not have that many mosquitoes as some claim, or maybe we're just lucky!

Fantastic service by the staff, they went above and beyond and attempt to make it a personable experience. Food was good and we returned for Heavenly Halia which didn't disappoint and there was a live jazz band which adds to the great atmosphere.

As always, a great experience. Service from staff was good but not great this time. They need to work on the natural warmth of communicating with guests. The front desk as you walk in was pretty cold... No warmth at all. Odd that they ran out of vanilla ice cream - a pretty basic item for the kitchen. However, the resulting Chocolate Affogato should be a permanent option on the dessert list - it was great! The other food was delicious - really, really good. Similar to Halia Hanoi, the menu has changed a bit and slightly downgraded from the fine dining level it was before. This start to make it feel a little to expensive. However, the ambiance of the venue more than make up for that - easily the most delightful dining location in Singapore. Still my favourite restaurant in this city State!

We had a wonderful evening in a magical setting. The food was delicious, the staff attentive, and the lighting and ambience very romantic. An evening at the Halia feels like an escape to Bali or Bintan, without leaving the city.

Overall good experience. Ambiance was very nice with live jazz band on Sunday night. Favourite dish was chili crab spaghettini, other dishes were decent, with the exception of "The Other Harbour" dessert which was poor with the mousse being too hard.
