An excerpt from Cuisine Restaurant Guide

Java Room

An eclectic and exciting mix of Asian cuisines

” TUCKED INTO THE BACK of Parnell Village, Java Room has a loyal following of diners who adore the variety of interesting, inexpensive food. This is almost like an Asian Pacific Rim restaurant, focusing on various Asian cuisines – a very clever idea I can’t believe others haven’t copied. The setting is a pleasant low key room, decorated with Asian artefacts, that has views from the outside balcony towards the Domain. Service is polite, and there’s a wine list or the opportunity to bring your own wine…..It is all authentically cooked, light and delicious.”

Ambient Asian

“The Java Room is a Parnell legend – warm, friendly, great food and a place where the regulars feel cherished ….. The restaurant has a unique setting with views to the Domain and the city unparalleled in Parnell. “
