We ordered the truffle fries, halibut fillet, crab spaghettini and the spice pumpkin soup. The halibut fillet came, wrapped in paper, with the truffle mayo. It just tasted yummylicious!

Really nice staff, but it would be made better if the staff could remember which person ordered which items. The food was quite good too, although the price does reflect the increasing cost of good restaurants in Singapore.

Expensive for both quality & quantity of food served. Service is inconsistent and not particularly welcoming. We had only lunched there because we wanted to visit the orchid garden. Wd have be good if there is a tie up for discount

The venue has a really great ambience to it. Situated just beside the Singapore's National Orchid Garden, it has a great view and let you get very close to nature. Food wise, it offers a variety of food and one thing to note: since the restaurant is named Halia, which is the Malay word for ginger, do expect some of the food to be specially made with ginger. I got a shock myself while trying my wife's Turkey Caesar Salad (yes, we do share our food around :-P) $$$ wise, it's quite value for money, a set lunch, which is only available during weekdays (do check again with the waiters and waitresses). it goes for $32 for a 3 course. All in all, highly recommended!

Second visit. Very good environment. Very nice staffs, keep introducing us the new dishes. The set lunch menu renews quite frequently. The raw beef salad is lovely and the new dish -- crispy pork belly is very tasty! We also love those ginger drinks~

It was an absolutely beautiful evening with great food (the kinilaw starter has a subtle confluence of flavours), attentive service, and most importantly great interrupted conversations.

We chose indoor seating so we were not so disturbed by the mosquitoes outside. The ambience can be quite romantic though we find it a little too dark to see (clearly) what we are eating. This restaurant is definitely for indulgence, referring to both the quality and the price of the food. Though the location is not exactly accessible for diners with no car, it's still one of my first few choices for an exquisite dinner date.

A thoroughly enjoyable evening in a serene and peaceful setting. Ideal for a family birthday celebration. Food was beautifully presented, tasted great - and further enhanced by our waiter's wine recommendations. Service was outstanding [thanks Allan].

Celebrated my wife's 50th birthday there on 26th March, such a nice place and experience for my family, the foods and the pre ordered birthday cake are really good and affordable, and also the staffs sure can sing well, really regret never give more tips on top of the service charge.

Food is very good & very imaginative & the setting ( in the garden) is lovely along with friendly staff. Ideal for a birthday celebration or when we were there a small wedding reception.
