3.4*
Food 3.8* - we got the tom yum seafood, duck Aglio, and the chicken poppers. The duck was the best out of the 3, unique pepper flavor that I haven’t had in a while, good blend. Tom Yum was good but can get similar quality at half the price elsewhere. The popcorn chicken is a hard pass, do not recommend way too dry and no meat. Portion size is normal for SG (saw some comments that portions are Huge but definitely is normal size for SG)
Service 3.5* basic, nothing great or bad. You have to get up to order at the front which was a little strange.
Atmosphere 3* unique decor, either like it or you don’t. The chairs are quite uncomfortable on the back.
Location - it is not where it shows on Google maps, we spent 15min trying to find the place. It is about 150m north of where it shows on the map in the next building.
Lastly, I’ll reserve judgement on this practice but you get some free food if you give a review. So take the thousands of 5* reviews with a grain of salt.
Overall, if the place can get good consistency with the food quality across all dishes, this would be a unique western style restaurant with visiting if you are in SG long term.

The restaurant is in centre point and thus convenient location.
The signature tomyam sauce is very flavourful, gues very well with the fish set.
Great fusion of tomyam with western dish

The cafe is very hidden in the mall, so you might need awhile to find it. We ordered the tom yam seafood pasta and alscampi fish and chips. The pasta was very salty, but the flavour was okay. Fish was crispy, fresh and paired very well with the sauce. The seafood pasta came first, but it took 15 min for the fish to come, making the pasta cold by the time both dishes were here. We tried our luck and requested for the pasta to be heated up again, but they said no. They do not charge service charge, so to them it was probably unreasonable. It could have been better if both dishes came out at the same time (cook the fish first, then the pasta). They seemed understaffed as well, as it not only took them a long time in between dishes, but also forgot the serving plates that we asked for, so we understand the frenzy. Overall, appreciate the fish and chips but will not go out of our way to come back again just for it.

What we had:
Lunch Set (11.30am to 5pm) - Starter, main dish and drinks - $17.90
1. Tom Yum Seafood Pasta
Visual: 4.5/5
Taste: 4.5/5
Creamy, spicy, and tangy — the taste and quality have been consistent for years. This is my go-to dish every time I’m here. I’ve tried tom yum pasta from other places, but this one’s my favorite. The amount of seafood is impressive too — I’m not even a big seafood fan, but I always manage to clean my plate. Chef’s kiss.
Nothing bad to say about it :)
2. Cheesy Chicken Chop
Visual: 4.5/5
Taste: 3.5/5
Generous portions — the plate was bigger than we expected! Lots of crispy fries and coleslaw to go around.
Unfortunately, the chicken sauce tasted more like pizza sauce, giving it a pizza-on-chicken vibe. It lacked depth and the “wow” factor was mostly from the portion size. We probably wouldn’t order this dish again.
3. Cheese fries (ala carte $9.90)
Visual: 4/5
Taste: 4/5
Looked awesome and tasty!
Best to share with more than two people — we couldn’t finish it all and appreciated that the restaurant was happy to provide takeaway boxes.
It’s a bit pricey, but when shared among a group, the cost is manageable. Plenty of sauce, both cheese and mayo — loved it!
TIP: Visit during their lunch hours for the set meal — it’s definitely worth the price then!

This is my honest review of 49 SEATS based on my very first experience.
The food was absolutely delicious — every dish was packed with flavor.
Portion sizes were generous, and the prices felt reasonable for the quality and service we received. What stood out even more was their truly lovely service. The staff went out of their way to make sure everything was convenient and comfortable for the customers.
Highly recommend for anyone looking for a satisfying and pleasant dining experience!
