We were drawn to Chopstix & Rice, a halal Indonesian restaurant located at Suntec Basement 1, because of its impressive Google rating of 4.6 stars. However, our experience was somewhat disappointing. It might have been an off day for the kitchen, as the flavors didn’t quite live up to expectations. We ordered: - Chap Chye ($8.90) - Beef Rendang ($15.60) - Ayam Lemak ($10.90) - Asam Pedas Ikan Pari ($14.90) - Sotong Hitam ($15.90) - 3 Rice ($3.60) - 3 Drinks ($10.70) Total (with GST & service tax): $96.88. The portions were generous, like the Ayam Lemak, which had three large chicken pieces. Unfortunately, the gravy was slightly too salty. The stingray in Asam Pedas was a great size but overly sour due to too much tamarind. The Chap Chye felt a little dry, and the Sotong Hitam was bland. On a positive note, the Beef Rendang was exceptional—soft, tender, and full of flavor. Despite the mixed experience, the service and atmosphere were excellent. I’m considering giving them another try in the future to see if it was just an off day.

Ordered Ayam lemak, sayur lodeh and assam pedals ikan. I've never been more annoyed with the taste of the chicken. It was not marinated at all, had a smell to it (like those frozen chicken kind of taste) and the sauce was so salty. Assam pedas faired slightly better as the sauce was sour as it should be but it was too spicy for someone who doesn't take spcie. The sauce also did not penetrate into the stingray and lady fingers. The only dish that was passable was the sayur lodeh. The vegetables had the taste of the gravy but the tau kwa was deep fried or something cos it was so dry. Paid $45.68 for 3 dishes and 2 rice. Overpriced and horrible.

This is probably our third visit here, but I didn’t realize until now that there’s a “RICE BAR” and “NOODLE BAR” on the menu. You can choose your preferred meat or seafood, select your choice of rice or noodles, and pick a special sauce. The chef will then cook the dish for you. Since we hadn’t tried this before, we decided to give it a go. We ordered the Grilled Chicken with Phad Thai Noodles and Basil Chilli Sauce, and the Fried Chicken Chop with Phad Thai Noodles and Sauce. The portions were generous and definitely filling. Both dishes were delicious. Prices are reasonable too, ranging from $12.80++ to $14.80++ depending on the meat or seafood you choose.

Has Vegetarian menu which is a big plus for my family. The food is tasty. Portion size is good too.

Had a good meal! The promotion they had for NDP very worth it as well. The fish tasted amazing but the honey chicken was the star of the meal! 8/10 experience would recommend and come back again!

Been to this outlet before and the food never disappoints, ambience was calm as if was off peak hours and staff were friendly. Would recommend!

visited this place for a team lunch.. food was tasty and amazing. ambiance is also nice.. do note that they have vegetarian menu also.. loved their tom yum soup ..

Nice and cosy place. Food is delicious especially with their lunch set meal which is worth it! Come with the Tom Yum Chicken Soup.

The food is tasty and the customer service is excellent. Thanks to the James and Chris. Due to change in chefs on duty, the food was too salty and they listened to our feedback and made adjustments accordingly. 5 stars to the positive attitude.

From the very beginning, my experience was nothing short of outstanding, and I feel compelled to share just how impressed I am. In a world where quality and genuine care can often feel rare, this stood out as an example of how things should truly be done. Every step of the process, from the initial interaction all the way to the final outcome, was marked by professionalism, attention to detail, and a sense of dedication that left me not only satisfied but genuinely grateful. What struck me most was the seamlessness of the entire experience. There were no unnecessary complications or frustrations; everything was handled smoothly and with efficiency. It was clear that a lot of thought and effort had gone into creating something that would not just meet expectations but exceed them. I was able to trust the process completely, which is not something I can say very often. The quality itself is worth highlighting in great detail. You can tell immediately that standards here are exceptionally high. From the smallest details to the overall delivery, there was consistency and precision that reflected a genuine commitment to excellence. Too often, I find that products or services are strong in one area but lacking in another. That was not the case here—every single element came together in harmony, creating a complete and well-rounded experience. Another point worth mentioning is the level of care and attentiveness that was shown throughout. It wasn’t just about delivering something functional or adequate; there was an added effort to ensure that I felt valued, understood, and appreciated. That personal touch is rare these days, but it makes all the difference. It transforms what could have been an ordinary experience into one that feels memorable and meaningful. Reliability is another factor that cannot be overstated. Everything was delivered exactly as promised, if not better, and there was no sense of cutting corners or rushing through. Consistency matters, and here it was clear that there was a strong foundation of integrity behind the work being done. That sense of trustworthiness is invaluable and makes me confident in recommending this to others without hesitation. In terms of overall impact, I would say this has set a new benchmark for what I expect in the future. It has shown me that excellence is not just possible but sustainable when there is passion, effort, and pride put into the work. I came away not only impressed but inspired, which is not something I ever anticipated beforehand. To summarize, this deserves every bit of a five-star rating. The combination of professionalism, quality, care, and reliability created an experience that is truly exceptional. I would highly recommend it to anyone looking for something they can trust and appreciate on multiple levels. It’s rare that I write such detailed reviews, but in this case, the effort feels necessary, because what I experienced went far above and beyond the ordinary. Without a doubt, I will be returning again in the future, confident that I will be met with the same high standard of excellence.
