Expensive but delicious. Beers are too expensive. Cocktails are actually decently priced but too small. Food is outstanding. As usual some satay runs out early. Maybe pre-order? Same as usual (with previous / other outlets), acoustics are bad here… too much echo. Maybe put some damping under the tables or something. Overall: recommend!

A beautiful lunch experience ✨ From the lush greenery to the elegant floral ceiling, the ambience was absolutely inviting. We agreed the kueh pie-tee was good especially with spicy chilli paste and sweet sauce - a lovely combination of textures and flavours. A leisurely lunch surrounded by beautiful details, good food, and a touch of old-world elegance. ✨

Celebrated my birthday with my parents and family at Violet Oon on Saturday, and we had such a wonderful evening! ❤️ The Peranakan food was delicious, and the Dempsey ambience was beautiful — tastefully decorated with a lovely heritage vibe that made the whole experience feel extra special. A big shoutout to Zul, Ash and Maya for taking such good care of us throughout the evening. Their warm hospitality truly made our celebration even more memorable, and we were also pleasantly surprised with a lovely birthday surprise! 🎂✨ We were especially touched to receive a family photo from Violet Oon as a keepsake. Such a thoughtful gesture and a beautiful memory for us to treasure. Thank you, Violet Oon, for a wonderful birthday celebration filled with great food, heritage charm, warm hospitality and precious family memories. ❤️

Violet Oon at Dempsey is a nice place to discover Peranakan cuisine, with dishes that reflect Singapore’s rich mix of cultures and flavours. Violet Oon has long championed our local food heritage, so there’s a real sense of national kitchen pride behind the menu. The Dempsey outlet adds to the experience with its rustic, old-world ambience, surrounded by the greenery and laid-back charm of the area. Good food, a bit of history and a setting that feels very Singapore. Staff were all so polite & helpful. Enjoyed everything we had ordered. Will be back again 🤭
