The boat was more rocky than usual but overall nice food and great experience for the family. Noticed many were there for birthday celebrations too. Good for couples but might have to check who has motion sickness/ unable to eat on a rocking boat in larger groups.
Food was average. Service was average as well. I will pay for the first time novelty of dining on a riverboat but not for a second time.
Food quality has vastly improved since the last visit. Awesome live band. Only thing to note is that this restaurant is on a docked boat and is constantly moving, hence people with motion sickness should avoid (like a friend of mine!). Haha but overall, a very good and unique experience for us.

Located right near the ferry terminal. Easily accessible from MRT. Love the food and the ambience there. Easily one of the nicest tex mex food around. Only downside is that some might get seasick after awhile.
Nice ambience for a family experience as well. The food quality was good but prices were a little steep. We didn't manage to go around the ferry to explore as well. Good to have live band at 7pm. Water was rather choppy.
the staff was friendly as usual but the service could be a little better - they don't know what they serve in the kitchen and wine well enough.
Good food especially the Mexican starters. good range of imported beers. Attentive and helpful staff. Restaurant has a nice relaxed and cosy atmosphere. Good value.
If you don't have motion sickness, this is a good place to dine and chill out with family or friends. Food serving is quite generous, I was not able to finish my baby back ribs, so I had to tapaw the leftover. Ambience is great- there is live music when we went there. Overall great! I will definitely return here.
Nice restaurant to dine in. Boat is a bit shaky, wouldnt recommend it to people with serious motion sickness. Other that that, it is a very place to have a date. Nice ambience and food. Great to take photos too :)
Environment was great . Quiet and food was fantastic as well . Will come back again for sure . Lave cake is a must try item
serves good food, nice service attitude given, clean environment, unique experience, price are affordable for the food and portion is huge too! Always come here for dinner.
Very nice quiet environment during lunch time. I like this best. The food was good and service was friendly. I do wish the lunch hour could be extended by an hour or so.
Very nice environment and food! But may not be advisable for people who have motion sickness as times it may get too choppy for some. But overall I have no problem with the choppiness so I enjoyed my experience with the restaurant. Love it! :-)
Quite a different dining experience.. With live band to accompany during the dinner.. And it's quite windy on the deck.. Will revisit with other friends..
The staff were great and helpful. The place has a nice view of sunset and the food is good. You can explore all three levels and have different views of the sky, sea, and city skyline.
Food was so so, ambience was not bad just that boat is a little rocky when it starts to rain..hence for those who have motion sickness may have to take note.
Nice restaurant, excellence service, pleasant ambience, authentic tex-Mex food. Price of the food is reasonable. They have live music performance. We got the seat near the seas. A good experience for children.
It was a different experience having a meal on a ship. Ambience was great and the place was quiet. Portions were a little small but the food was rather good.
a very unique experience to be eating my dinner on a boat! we went there at 7pm and the water was pretty choppy. the waiter and waitress were very friendly and Mr Shamin (asssistant manager) attended to us and helped me with the surprise birthday cake for my boyfriend! would love to go again when the renovation for the third floor restaurant is open.
Went there for a mini birthday celebration, no specials for birthdays but the ambience and view was great. Turkey quesadilla, wild mushroom soup, etc. was great while some of the food could be better. (I.e. honey chipotle ribs was a little too well done/tough)
Awesome service with attentive staff. The food was good too and dining on a vintage vessel certainly added some brownie points. Will definitely visit this place again!
Santa Fe Tex-Mex Grill has a nice ambience. It was an unique and unforgettable dining experience with very helpful staff. Location is nice and easily accessible.
Personally I felt sick as i could feel the dining area swaying and moving to the waves hahaha just personal. Food goes well with beer. The Father's Day platter $68++ was good deal (steak and chicken tastes ok but the rips was disappointing). I paid close to $160 for side orders of beer, hot wings and nachos which I find the nachos over priced (horrible portion).
Full family enjoyed the evening. Friendly waiters good tasty meals and fun activities for dad and child and nice music too. It's a good place to chill
Nice place. But shaky as the ship will shake when waves come. Quiet and nice atmosphere. Recommend for couple. Not family with babies. Will visit again.
i like the old school vibes of this place. the food is quite standard western fare with stuff like ribs and chicken chop which were all quite decent.
Good serivce. Great ambience. Food was not bad too. Easily accesible by MRT as it is 1 minute away from the station. Be careful if you are prone to seasick.
overall the restaurant ambiance is good, but might need to choose the right weather to go if you actually have sea sick as u will be dining on the boat and its really shaky
*Lovely setting and experience, aside from the heavy boat traffic/ tide rise that caused a fair bit of swaying. One of my friends was feeling a little seasick. *The TexMex promo sampling at $5/- for a variety of items was a great way to sample the foods. I'd say this new menu they're offering is pretty good fare ~ Their tomato salsa was made with fresh tomatoes...yummz! *However, the Santa Fe Salad was a tad disappointing. We asked no to include beans in it, which sadly ended up with only lettuce and tortilla strips tossed with way too much dressing @ $14/-! That was way too pricey for the portion size and for the lack of ingredients in it! :(( *Sangria was well concocted by Shamin who greeted and served us! : )) Thank you for a lovely evening.
Quality of food average. Atmosphere ok but with the ship swinging with the water wave can make once uncomfortable. The price of food is expensive given the portion provided. The sitting abit congested and the place is small.
We had our break fast there as it was ramadhan. The malay assistant manager was very helpful and attentive. Thumbs up for his good service!
Very special dining concept. Good spread of buffet with food from various countries. Lots of interesting DIY station too! Love the DIY ice kacang and pasta making station. Great for kids too!
Food are suck. No standard at all. I when there for around the world buffet on Mother's day. For buffet standard, the food selection are limited and taste absolutely suck
Excellent restaurant ambience in addition to nice food and friendly service. Its a pity that the surrounding waters is mirky and rough, not much of night scenary too.
Great venue with great service away from the weekend crowd. Food was also very well presented and delicious. Will definitely come back again for more
It was a very unique experience for us and we loved the place! The servers were very attentive and helpful and the food was delicious! For wine and beer lovers, you will be spoilt with choices. We were definitely go back again to try out other food on the menu :)

A cozy restaurant with nice ambience. Good services by friend staff. Will come again on separate occasion next time. Recommended for both couples and families.
I think there needs to be a bit more urgency overall. We came a bit early to the restaurant and had to wait outside the ship even though they saw us waiting outside in the heat. After ordering, everyones food came like 20 mins after my Tex Mex Chicken came, I was practically eating alone. The staff has not much experience in this type of restaurant or food. You also say its Mexican food or theme... not so in the looks and taste. My wife's steak was tough and so plain, so was my son's pork chop, very uninteresting. On top of this the rocking of the ship is very disturbing. Sorry, but I will eat there again. I can bear the rocking but the rest sorry.
The staffs there are friendly and helpful to my request. On top of that, that are nice to prepare us a birthday cake for free knowing I am there to celebrate my birthday.
Wonderful ambience and food. Check with your dining partner if they will get seasick before bringing them there! There is a rocky beach nearby for after dinner activities as well!
Unique experience on board a ship. Food was delicious and reasonably priced. Service staff was attentive and fast. Def recommended to all. Boat was a little shaken though.
Pleasant experience with very friendly staff. We arrived 15mins before opening time but the staff graciously allowed us to wait inside as we had 2 young children with us. Staff also suggested that we explore the upper decks while we waited for our food. Kids loved that! Food was very well marinated and we enjoyed the baby back ribs very much.
Love the ambience. Food is nice. Except the movement of the restaurant is challenging for people with motion sickness. However I love the live band. Good wine list. Thank you for making my anniversary memorable.
chicken breast wasn't fully cooked so as a pregnant lady I wasn't too happy. Simplest french fries wasn't crispy, tasted like it was fried long ago. The wait person was nice to offer ginger and lemon water when he was told I have problem with the boat rocking.
Good food and excellent service is the standrad here. The steamboat decor and the rocking waves accompanied authentic spicy Tex-Mex cuisine with deliciously sweet desserts!
Food was good. Ambience was good. However, I didn't expect such a shaky experience even though I know this is a docked ship. Don't think I'll be back anytime soon.
The environment was cosy and warm. Good for a quiet meal with the family. Food was just so-so in standard but I would return for the ambience!
Food and ambient is excellent ! Staff service is Super attentive but My partner and I have sick sea. We didn't finish our meal and they even asked if Want to pack our food:)
