Still as good as always. Weekend and public holidays you will get more special items. Most importantly price ia reasonably friendly. Only issue is peak hours on weekends, your queue will be less friendly so make sure you reserve in advance. Most items on basic dimsum cost less than 7 dollars a basket which is rare for this location and its reputation. They also handcraft some cute dimsum in animal forms like piggy custard bun etc. I quite like their style of serving palate cleanser in the form of chinese tea, allows you to feel refresh after the meal and also opens up your palate before the meal

Food this horrible should honestly come with a public service announcement. I ordered noodles and what arrived looked like the kitchen ran out of ideas, ingredients, and motivation all at the same time. A few sad beansprouts were tossed on top, almost as if someone thought, “This should distract them.” It did not. The dish was so shockingly plain that I genuinely wondered if I was part of some social experiment to test customer patience. If the goal was to serve the bare minimum required to technically call something “food,” then congratulations, they have achieved operational excellence in disappointment. I would not return, even in an absolute emergency. At this point, instant noodles at home offer a more inspiring culinary journey. Hard pass, and I strongly advise others to manage expectations accordingly.

Very disappointed with the 'last' meal with them. I wished it would have ended on a good note. Came at 5.30 for the 6pm opening. We were the 4th table. 1st of all, no cold crab, no peking duck, no foie gras. Kind of defeat the purpose of eating here. 2nd, all dishes were consistently lacking in flavour. Roast duck, roast pork, char siew all lacking in flavour. The only dish well executed was the beef. Not sure if their taste has been tuned to the elderly crowd here. 3rd, orh nee was overly pureed. It's hard not to make comparison with other longstanding teochew restaurants. Over 200 per pax, did expect better food.

Enjoyable dinner of delectable Cantonese and Teochew cuisine! The meal featured a fresh, beautifully steamed Teochew-style Pomfret and a delicious Pan-fried Wagyu Beef. There really is something for everyone at East Ocean. The Peking Duck was also a highlight, served classically with wraps, spring onions, and hoisin sauce, and their dim sum was great too!

It is utter disappointment for the food served as compared to the last few years. Peking duck - unavailable, teochew cold crab - unavailable. What was most on theala-carte menu was unavailable, so we decided on the set menu (which cost about $200 per pax). To worsen things, food was bland, roasted duck from a coffeeshop may even taste better. Prawns used were frozen prawns. I didn't think it is right for consumers to paying premium price for frozen food. For tbose who are like us who wantec to enjoy the food for the good old times, please spend your money elsewhere.

The service was abysmal. The barbecued pork was almost pure fat with barely any lean meat — and the staff didn’t even bother to ask if I preferred lean or fatty cuts. Sure, the roast pork's skin was crispy, but the meat itself was oily, heavy, and hard to enjoy. The dim sum was the only decent part of the meal, but the broccoli with crab meat was downright disgusting — the crab meat looked and felt like something you’d rather not see on your plate. The worst part? My chair was soaked. The foam cushion was full of water, and my pants ended up completely wet — as if I had an accident. It was embarrassing, uncomfortable, and completely ruined the entire dining experience.

Before they close, had to patronise! Food not was good, not overly salty. Erm. plain rice was kinda expensive though at $1.80 for a small bowl 😅 Sad that the restaurant is closing down after so many years of operations.

My colleague took me here whilst I was visiting Singapore for a yum cha lunch. It didn’t disappoint and we ate like kings! The roast pork here is some of the best I’ve eaten: crunchy, not too salty or fatty and tasty. I really loved all the dishes to be honest

The food was acceptable, but the service was extremely poor and significantly detracted from the experience. The allotted one-hour dining limit felt heavily enforced; we were actively pressured to relinquish our table, even immediately after our food was served. This made the meal feel rushed and unpleasant
