Found this place by cha ce when walking around Riccarton Mall. Food was surprisingly nice and the service was great too. My group of 7 tried various dishes and my favourite was the fish fillet curry noodles. Generous portions all round.
The food looks great, well presented, and fast serving, but it doesn't appeal much to me ( probably personal taste). The customer services are absolutely amazing, very fast, accommodated, and friendly. The place is clean too. The only minus is the noise from the blending/or grinding machine, which really killed the vibes sometimes.

Tasty food with generous portion size !! When many restaurants in Christchurch are busy with hiking their prices and cutting down their portion sizes, PappaRich still offers a good portion for a decent price. Food is quite delicious and friendly staffs. Clean and tidy inside ❤️ Been there twice already and hope they keep up their good work.

PappaRich Riccarton is an excellent Malaysian restaurant that delivers delicious food, attentive service, and a welcoming atmosphere. From the moment I walked in, I was impressed by the restaurant's modern and stylish decor, which creates a warm and inviting atmosphere.
The menu at PappaRich Riccarton is extensive, offering a broad range of Malaysian dishes, including appetizers, soups, noodles, rice, and desserts. The food is cooked to perfection, and the flavors are rich and complex, with an authentic Malaysian taste that's hard to find elsewhere.
One of the standout dishes at PappaRich Riccarton is the Nasi Lemak, a traditional Malaysian dish that features coconut rice, crispy anchovies, spicy sambal, fried chicken, and boiled egg. It's a delicious and hearty meal that's perfect for lunch or dinner. The Roti Canai, a crispy and fluffy flatbread served with a side of curry dipping sauce, is also a must-try dish.
The service at PappaRich Riccarton is excellent, with friendly and attentive staff who are knowledgeable about the menu and happy to make recommendations. The restaurant is also well-organized and clean, creating a comfortable and enjoyable dining experience.
Overall, PappaRich Riccarton is a fantastic Malaysian restaurant that delivers delicious food, attentive service, and a welcoming atmosphere. If you're looking for an authentic Malaysian dining experience in Christchurch, I highly recommend this restaurant.
Place is well decorated. Taste of food is quite authentic (for nz standard) but could benefit from a larger portion size considering the price. I tried the laksa which was a tad too oily and the chicken texture wasn't the best. Would recommend as a place to catch up with friends but if just wanting Malaysian food there are other more value for money places.
Amazing Malaysian cuisine. We tried Chicken curry, Roti canai & fried noodles. It’s Indian and Malaysian fusion absolutely delicious. They have two pages for Roti’s. Also there mock-tail drinks menu is really interesting. Also, customer service were Fantastic as they give notepad and pencil to jot down the order yourself and once done there is small button of call me on table. Highly impressed. We be back😍
I ordered the Nasi Kunyit (tumeric rice), nice by food presentation but weak in taste.
The price is a bit dear.
Average price and a good portion. Chicken rice was good, but the dry noodle is too much sauce. For dim sum, I asked for sou sauce but they don’t have it.
Delicious food, found far away from home. Love that I can get the taste of Malay food, very similar to what it was back home. I have been coming in every day for the past three days.
Wish they can have a branch in Dunedin.
The service is efficient and food arrived quite quickly. Nice portion sizes and flavors. The rice meals could do with some more vegetable options, only had 3 thin slices of cucumber. The two teas we ordered were okay but definitely not good value for money. They are small in quantity and bland.
Food is reaaaalllyyyy good! Sadly, a lot of food is not available. But all the food we ordered are fantastic. Drinks also very nice. I really like barley drink and their barley drink is so good. Staff is very friendly, explain everything very patiently and food serves really fast too. I can’t find anything bad
7-8 out of 10 depending on what you get. Ambiance is very nice. Extensive menu so you're spoilt for choice. Nasi lemak with chicken curry or prawn sambal and roti canai is good. Sharing plates (chinese djnner style), desserts and drinks are also covered in the menu. Large restaurant seats a lot of people. Order using the piece of paper and the waitress will get it to the kitchen then she will tick off the items as she delivers them. I think I'll be going to this place quite a few times in the next few months to try out all their dishes. This restaurant is a treat for denizens of Christchurch.
The service in the restaurant was fast and excellent. Not only it’s fast, but the restaurant is clean. The waitress/waiter is very friendly and easy to talk with. The food is very delicious and flavorful.
Our food were served quickly. The fried chicken was nice and crispy. My partner enjoyed the chicken rice with fried chicken. I ordered Vermicelli Fish Ball soup, it was quite bland in flavor. I have to ask soy sauce, salt and pepper(which are not accessible to diners) to enjoy the soup. The place is very neat and it has a lovely ambiance.
Amazing place ,Efficient & Friendly service.
Bright ambience :) .. We ordered Roti canai with chicken curry, Veg meat with rice , steamed buns, Dumplings.Food is fantabulous. Would definitely come again.
Nostalgic experience.
Came with my parents as this was the first time we’ve seen a full papparich menu since we were in Singapore. This place makes me feel very at home and full of nostalgia. The kaya is amazing tasting homemade, they make the best nasi lemak chilli and the spring rolls also tasted fresh and homemade.
It’s pricy but with the portions its worth it if you come hungry!
