Jem has 90 places to eat, directly connected to Jurong East MRT by its own description. Almost half of them, 44, are in the Basement 1 food hall, and 33 are flagged halal in Jem's own store directory.
Basement 1 is the fast lane: kiosks, bakeries, chicken rice and bak kut teh. Level 1 opens onto Jem Street, the outdoor row with Starbucks, McDonald's and Aburi-EN. Levels 3 and 4 are the sit-down restaurants, including IKEA's restaurant. Level 5 has the Kopitiam Food Hall on the same floor as the Jem Play playground. Every unit number below comes from Jem's own directory, which Lendlease runs.

The Bangkok chicken rice shop that won a Bib Gourmand in the Bangkok Michelin Guide, by the Jem listing. Halal flagged at Jem, on Basement 1. Quick and cheap. The sauce is the point, so do not skip it.

Peppery, garlicky bak kut teh, and Song Fa's own site says it started as a pushcart in 1969. Basement 1, next to Go-Ang Pratunam at #B1-08, so a split group can eat side by side. Pork, so not one for halal diners.

Halal nasi padang on Basement 1, from the same people as Red Ginger at Jurong Point. Point at what you want from the counter. One of the easiest halal lunches in the mall.

Halal Japanese curry, a demi-glace style the brand says is made with 14 vegetables and spices. Level 1. Filling and quick.

Japanese grilled fish sets: saikyo yaki, teriyaki, shioyaki and more, with rice and miso soup, by its listing, and halal flagged. Level 1. Fish is grilled to order, so give it a few minutes.

Croissants, bakes and coffee from the Tiong Bahru Bakery chain, on Level 1. The good breakfast in Jem, and an easy coffee stop on the way to the MRT. Jem's directory does not list its hours, so check the bakery's own page before an early start. Not halal flagged.

The Hong Kong cha chaan teng chain on Level 1. Come for milk tea and the kind of noodles and toast Hong Kong office workers live on. It suits a late breakfast or tea break more than a big dinner. Not halal flagged.

Xiao long bao and fried rice on Level 2. The reliable choice for a family lunch that everyone will eat. It is one of only three places to eat on Level 2, so it is easy to find. Not halal flagged.

Hakka cooking from a Chinese chain the listing says has over 80 outlets in China, founded in 2013. Level 3. Order to share, the dishes are made for a table.

The sushi chain on Level 3. A safe Japanese meal for a group with mixed appetites, from sushi to rice and noodle sets. Weekend dinners get busy, so expect a short wait. Not halal flagged.

Vietnamese food, halal certified by MUIS at #03-22. Level 3. A lighter meal than most of the floor, and one of only two halal-flagged places on Level 3.

Peking duck, as the name says, on Level 3 with the other sit-down restaurants. Best with four or more, so a whole duck makes sense and the rest of the table fills up on sides. Jem's directory does not list hours, so call ahead for a big group. Not halal flagged.

Claypot dishes cooked one pot at a time, by its listing, from a stall that started in Yishun. Level 4. Every pot is cooked to order, so do not come starving and in a rush.

Sizzling steaks, seafood and pasta from a chain established in 1966, by the Jem listing. Level 4. A birthday-dinner kind of place that will not break the bank. Not halal flagged.

Swedish meatballs, spaghetti and plant balls, per Jem's listing, on Level 4. Cheap and big. It comes with IKEA crowds on weekends, so go off-peak.

The food court, up on Level 5, the same floor as the Jem Play playground and the rooftop park. That makes it the parents' pick: eat, then let the kids loose. Jem does not flag it halal as a whole, so check stall by stall.
The 16 above are the ones we would send a friend to. For completeness, here is the rest of Jem's food directory, 74 more places, 90 in total. 33 of the 90 are halal certified. Unit numbers and halal certification come from Jem's own store directory and are re-checked daily, last on 15 October 2026.
