I will admit that I have grown to appreciate this place & their food. The first time I dined here, their dishes tasted different to what I know. But after giving them a chance, I realized that they have their own to twist to their dishes. Their Roti tho..... I'd come back just for that!!! Sooo good, especially when cooked & eaten fresh! It's good for both savory & dessert. read more

We have ordered roti - chicken curry ; veg dumpling and coconut paradise. Roti chicken curry was good but I feel it's a very small portion, if you want to go for second roti it will cost $5.90 which is super expensive. Coconut paradise tasted like a coconut milk taken out of frozen coconut pieces and was pretty much watery. The creaminess and rich texture of the coconut was missing. So disappointed with the vegetarian dumpling. No taste and bland. If you want to escape from indian food and like to try something different, this may be a go! People are courteous. Yes, they accepted the new dining vouchers. read more

Ordered C02 Curry Chicken $14.90 "An Indian-influenced 'flying bread' that is soft and fluffy inside but crispy and flaky on the outside. Served with curry chicken, dhal and sambal for dipping." This dish is palatable and authentic. The salt and spices just right and the chicken and chunky and tender. The staff are lovely and hospitable. I wouldn't mind coming here again. read more

Papparich - Malaysian Near Me - Parramatta, NSW

I'm kind of like a 4.5 star on this place but there were two standouts for me. The first was the hainese chicken with the sauced noodles; i was a little skeptical at first but it really was a good combination and the price was fair especially when you consider the conversation rate to USD. The also surprisingly good item here was the lime, lychee mint drink. I literally came back here again just to have it; Unfortunately I tried the other drinks and none of them were nearly as good; stick with the lime choice. I had a few other dishes here including the roti and they were a little bit of a let down so i'd probably stick to what I knew was good here. read more

This place conjures up mixed feels for me. My partner and I went here for lunch. It was quite busy but not insanely overcrowded, we were seated quickly and that's when things soured a bit. This was our first time here and our waitress never asked us or explained the ordering process. So come time to order we didn't know that we were suppose to fill out these small paper cards which are left at each table with the forks and napkins. Later in the evening another couple sat at the table next to us, when the waitress asked if they'd been here before and they replied yes, she still explained how to order the meal... us on the other hand were left completely in the dark. With the confusion of ordering out of the way. We quickly received our drinks and before long my partner received her dish, Biryani Rice with Curry Chicken & Sambal Prawns. I, on the other hand, waited for about 15 minutes before I was served my Roti Telur with Chicken Rendang - which I was told would take around 15 minutes to make the Telur, and which I had no issues with. But I thought it was proper etiquette to bring out all meals at the same time... saves people from having that awkward moment of "I'll wait for your meal to come/no, start now before it gets cold." By the time my food came out my partner was close to finished her plate. My lunch had further complications. While the telur was hot and fresh, my chicken was lukewarm. Nobody wants to eat cold chicken. My guess is that they prepared my plate and waited for the telur to cook, meanwhile my chicken sat there for 15 minutes getting colder and colder. I complained and they were nice enough to serve me fresh hot chicken but transferred the same telur over so when my dish came back out the chicken was hot but the telur was now cold. I gave up and just ate cold telur. Not the best dining experience but I'm hoping it was a one off. The food did taste amazing and the drinks were delicious. But all that mess with the ordering, meals being brought out at different times, cold chicken, then cold telur really damaged their rating. The food was well priced, and the restaurant was clean and atmospheric. Willing to try it once more. read more

Friendly waiting staff and quite authentic Malaysian dishes make this place a pleasure to dine in. Only drawback is that there can be a long wait on some busy nights. There was a queue 20 people deep the last time we were here. Try coming before 6 to avoid the queue. Highly recommended. read more

Catch up dinner. Only had to wait a few minutes for a table to be ready. For drinks we got the Milo dinosaur $4.90 - nice and cool to anticipate some spicy foods. Got the mixed satay sticks with 3 x chicken and 3 x beef! ($14.90) Loved it the peanut sauce is very nice and not too overpowering. Then for a main i got the Roti Canai with beef rendang - beef was a bit fatty but still tasty and easily shredded. The roti was really nice and crispy not too oily. My friend got the nasi goreng nad said it was good but didnt get to finish it as it was a big serving. Overall, good first time visit to this store. Will indeed be back! read more

CURRY LAKSA CHICKEN $13.50 The presentation was as good as laksa can be. Carefully placed eggplant fritters, fried tofu and sliced fish cakes. Once you dig in its a one type egg noodle underneath. The chicken was very scarce indeed compared to its competitors. The most disappointing was the broth which is the soul of the dish in my opinion. First impression is that it is watery, I'm not sure if the recipe has been adapted to the mainstream but there was no depth of flavour what so ever. In any case, it could have been much better and Pappa should be more generous with the proteins. NASI LEMAK FRIED CHICKEN $13.50 Very average dish. Chicken was not the best and the rest could not be rated as they are all ready-made elements placed on a dish. TEH TARIK $3.90 + PAPPA CHAM $3.90 Questionable choice of glasses for a tea and just another illusion to make believe that this is value. The tea is actually warm with ice added on top, quite disappointing that they did not mix it beforehand. Conclusion Their only differentiator is their paper form ordering system which I find more of an inconvenience for the customer than a positive and it definitely makes the service appear less personable. These prices should be way lower due to this staff cost saving strategy. The system is outdated, ever heard of tablets? with direct to the kitchen point-of-sale system. The food is average and offer less value than its competitors. The things going for it is its convenient location at Parramatta Station and lack of competitors in its close proximity. @thesydneynoob read more

If I ever want Malaysian food again I will definitely know where to go! PappaRich in Parramatta has a constantly long line, and hungry diners everywhere, with an efficient, fast ordering system to make sure they meet everyone's dining requests! I actually tried a ridiculous (but fantastic) amount of dishes at PappaRich but here are a few that really stood out personally: 1. The Vegetables Laksa - rich, spicy coconut gravy housing warm, eggplant, tofu and beansprouts, along with thick noodles, this dish will make you sigh and become ecstatic at the same time - it doesn't feel heavy after eating and is not overwhelmed by coconut flavour, making it a perfect lunch dish! 2. The drinks. I specifically had the Tropical Lime which was lychee-lime slushy topped with vanilla ice cream, but their range of delicious, decadent drinks makes you wonder why they needed a dessert menu at all! 3. Roti Canai - Never have I tasted such a flaky, yet silky, yet crispy roti, it was quite literally heaven. They are famed for their roti canai and with very good reason, I assure you! Why are you still reading this? Aren't you hungry yet? ;) read more

I went here on a Saturday night for a family birthday after being knocked back with 1 hour waits at chefs gallery. There were 5 us, we approached paparitch after walking past a moderate line in front and told it would be about a 30 minute wait. It was getting late and we were sick of walking around so we waited.. 7 minutes. Under promise and over deliver that's what I like! It doesn't stop there! The ordering system is cool and very efficient, you pretty much write down what you want on a piece of paper ring the door bell.. And hand it to the staff. See pretty cool right. The food came out in 6 minutes. That's right ladies and gentlemen, the freshly made roti and curry sauce came in 10. The food was authentic delicious and fresh, can't get any better than that. We weren't rushed like we would have been at chefs Gallery that had a 1 hour maximum sitting time. We were able to enjoy the good food and order more as it pretty much comes instantly. I wouldn't hesitate coming again with staff being friendly and super efficient. It was like a tasty authentic well oiled machine. read more

This is my favorite place to grab a quick lunch whenever we shop at Westfield Parramatta. The food is great and the price reasonable. Roti canai and laksa are my all time favorite. The service is quick and the staffs friendly. read more

Been here once when they just opened and waited about 10 minutes due to the hype around the place on a Thursday night. Service was great. Especially in peak hour when we arrived. The host greeted us cheerfully from the moment we arrived. The food tasted great and came out quickly. My soup had an abundance of flavor and was made well. read more

Papparich - Steamed Chicken with Flat Noodles and Broth. - Malaysian Near Me - Parramatta, NSW

Full disclosure: I ate here attending a Yelp event. This is a restaurant passionate about food. They take care in what they do and hand prepare the ingredients for their menu. I was able to sample a large selection of food including appetisers, mains, desserts and even drinks. If my full belly is any indication, the food is amazing and well worth travelling for. The large selection of drinks are well worth checking out also. Coffees,fruity drinks, even sesame seed drinks too! Another great indicator that this is the place to come is the line up outside the restaurant. There was constantly a long line of punters waiting to get in for a table. It's certainly a hit with the locals and I'll be coming back again myself very soon. read more

We have dined here several times over the past few months and have always found the food to be fresh and delicious. We often get the mixed satay as an entree, the meat of both the chicken & beef are tender and the satay sauce is the perfect spice. Hubby loves the Curry Laksa, it is a generous bowl of Malay goodness - he likes it spicy so he always asks for a little extra chilli on the side. I often order the Roti Canai with either curry chicken or beef rending and both are amazing. On our last visit Sunday 12/4/15 we had lunch for 5 including drinks for under $140 it is exceptional value for money. One of my favourite aspects of this restaurant is that you order your food as you are ready, just write down the number of the dish you wasn't to order, press the buzzer and the wait staff appear to take your order, you set the pace your food is delivered not the wait staff/kitchen. There is usually a line out the front however it progresses quickly so don't worry the food is well worth it. read more

Ordered nasi lemak with chicken curry and prawn with sambal. After 5min my order arrived and we had to wait another 5min for my wife's order. Invoice was given to us and total price looks reasonable. So far so good. But last night I woke up 3times early in the morning as my stomach was hurting bad. Still suffering today. This was the only meal I had that evening. I love Malaysian dishes and I never had problems with them. Something wasn't right with what I ate at Papparich in Parramatta. read more

Well how to describe this restaurant. For those you who are old enough it reminds me of a Coles cafeteria. A place where you queue up to get a predictable, mass produced, fast meal. There was nothing intrinsically wrong with what we had it's just that it wasn't terribley exciting. The portion sizes are not very generous but just adequate. The laksa high on noodles low on veges and chicken, the soup reasonably tasty. The noodle dish again very little of the main ingredients. We also had a vegetarian meat dish which wasn't too bad but again light on the 'meat'. The drinks were interesting with some unusual flavours. The service is fast, in some ways too fast as if they want you out the door as soon as possible, no lingering to have a conversation over your meal. An interesting experience but not one I will be repeating soon. read more

After a long stressful day at work. Couldn't find a better place to destress. Even on a Tuesday night it was busy but was able to find a seat. Food was perfect and quick to arrive, always a waiter or waitress around and with the perfect smile even after asking for the menu the million times. Would definetly recommend and will go back for a third time. read more

Have never been disappointed in any visit. Food is exceptional and queues are always long during meal times for good reason. I usually go for the nasi lemak with rendang. The rendang is delicious and that chilli sambal is to die for. Curry chicken is always nice too. read more

Great food to authentic Malaysian tastes. However don't eat a quick lunch alone and expect to pay by credit card. Minimum $25 on the card or $2.50 charge. What a ripoff. Spoilt a good meal. Refuse to pay it. read more
