I ordered the dry mee pok and sooo good!! 🍜🔥 Portion was seriously big, like lowkey enough for two people. Queue wasn’t too bad and service was super quick and efficient. Tbh, I like the flavor at this Orchard branch way more than the one in Chinatown, this one just hits different! 💯👏

One of the Michelin Bib Gourmand-awarded food stalls at Food Opera in ION Orchard Mall, renowned for their legendary fish ball noodles. As a fan of good food, I was excited to try this place, especially considering its prestigious recognition. Upon arriving, I was greeted with a long queue, which I took as a promising sign of the food’s quality. The anticipation built as I patiently waited, and I could smell the fragrant broth wafting through the air, making my mouth water in excitement. Finally, after what felt like forever, I reached the front of the line and was ready to place my order. While the food did not disappoint—each bowl of fish ball noodles was deliciously comforting, be it dry or soup ones, with the fish balls being delightfully springy and bursting with flavor—the experience was marred by the attitude of the woman at the cashier. Unfortunately, she was extremely rude, displaying a dismissive demeanor that contrasted sharply with the overall warm atmosphere of the bustling food court. When me and my wife approached to give our order, she presented a rather frightening expression and a tone that felt less than welcoming. It was discouraging, as her attitude overshadowed what was supposed to be an enjoyable dining experience. It’s unfortunate that a single individual can greatly affect one’s impression of a place, especially when the food is as remarkable as it is. Despite the negative interaction, I must say that the fish ball noodles were worth the wait and made up for the distressing moment at the register. I’d recommend the dish to anyone craving a hearty meal, but I hope that management addresses the customer service aspect to ensure that future diners leave with a more positive experience.

I went 3 days in a row cause it was that good! The softest and bounciest fishballs I’ve tried. Can have a fishy taste if you’re not too good with fish. But the dipping sauce helps eliminate it if you still want to try. Their noodle soup is delicious. Tried the dry noodles the next day, was yum but on the oilier side. Overall amazing!! Must try! 🤤

Was recommended to this place by a colleague to try the bak chor mee. Fishballs were bouncy and yummy, and the noodles were chewy and nice. Get there early before the lunch crowd comes by or else be prepared to queue for a while! Highly recommend this place, we will be back!

Absolutely love eating at TeowChew Fishball Noodles at ION Mall! The fish balls and fish cakes are fresh and flavorful, and the noodles are cooked perfectly—so delicious! It’s always a satisfying meal whenever I visit. Highly recommended if you’re craving a comforting and tasty bowl of noodles.

Went to Food Opera to try Lixin. Since it was around mealtime and the holiday season, the place was super packed — took us about 30 minutes just to get a table. But the queue at Lixin wasn’t too bad; even though it was busy, the line moved pretty fast. 1. Signature Noodle This dish comes with mee pok tossed in their signature sauce, along with a variety of fishballs and dumplings. The noodles were chewy with a nice balance of sweet and savory flavors, made even better with crispy lard on top. The fishballs were seriously good, super soft, chewy, and no fishy smell at all.

A cute little coffee joint tucked at corner It was peaceful when I visited on weekday afternoon I ordered a sesame latte It was delicious Server could do with a bit more smile Some of the seats with backing are less comfortable Overall good

Overall, it's not a bad experience to visit in busy Ion. Good aroma of flat white. Cute seats and soothing vibes. Will visit again if I need a hideout to wind down in the mall. I could find a table at 4 pm on Sunday.

Don't like the matcha latte. No oomph, not creamy enough. Tongue felt furry after finishing it. Sgd6.5 for regular size. Don't like that there was plastic lid for dine in, so not environmentally friendly. Cashier was alright, ambience was good, everyone chilling and there was soft background pop music, aircon also not too cold. Stools were hard, not the most comfortable. Overall not a place I will come back to again.

Drink was pretty mid. The staff was very rude though - there were no greeting but only silent stare until I verbalized what I want (after 5 seconds). Pretty neat place but you can bet on the staff to come wipe the tables (bonus: no paper towels seen anywhere in store too!)
