It a great place to visit the place again. My only suggestion is for the staffs to ask the customers soon for any soup refill whenever the steam boat soup level is low.

I recently had the pleasure of dining at Whampoa Keng Fish Head Steamboat for the third time, and I can confidently say that the quality of food remains at top tier. This hidden gem on Balestier Road continues to impress with its delicious offerings and vibrant atmosphere. ### Ambiance The restaurant has a reasonable layout that is suitable for family dinners or gatherings with friends. While it may not be overly spacious, it provides a comfortable setting that allows for enjoyable conversations and shared meals. ### Food Quality As a returning customer, I was eager to see if the food would live up to my previous experiences, and it did not disappoint. The fish head steamboat is the star of the show. The broth was rich and flavorful, infused with a perfect blend of spices that complemented the fresh fish head beautifully. Each bite of the fish was tender and succulent, showcasing the high quality of ingredients used. ### Service The staff at Whampoa Keng are attentive and friendly, ensuring that our needs were met without being intrusive. They were knowledgeable about the menu and offered great recommendations, which added to the overall dining experience. ### Value for Money The restaurant does provide good value for the money. Considering the quality of food and attentive service, the prices are quite reasonable. ### Conclusion Overall, my third visit to Whampoa Keng Fish Head Steamboat reaffirmed my love for this establishment. With consistently high food quality, a welcoming atmosphere, and excellent service, it's no wonder this place is a favorite among locals. I highly recommend it to anyone looking for an authentic steamboat experience in Singapore. I look forward to my next visit!

Unfortunately, had a less-than-ideal experience. While most of the food was fine, some of the grouper we had wasn’t as fresh as expected and had a strong fishy smell. Despite that, we still finished it. However, later that night, I had some discomfort and my partner experienced bloating and indigestion. Considering we paid around $120, it didn’t feel worth it for the overall experience. Hopefully, they can improve on freshness and quality moving forward.

Went to eat during the Chinese New Year period. Unfortunately, they only served set menu during this period. A bit pricey but the food was great as usual. Service was quick and attentive. Will be back for more.

Been here several times, the soup base for the steamboat fish is always very good. Service staff are friendly. However, in previous occasions, the lady hiss always looks snobbish but yesterday’s visit. She was okay

Excellent food and services. Ordered marmite pork ribs, which was superb! Food was served hot and fast. The pomfret charcoal steamboat was of course heavenly. Best fish soup in SG. Staff was also attentive and refilled soup. Great dining experience. Will be back soon!

Dinner for 4 pax (2Adults2kids). Food was ok. Ordered large portion of fish head steamboat but don't really feel any additional portion vs medium. The space also quite limited as if you moved the chair slightly outside the "normal" range, the staff would come and remind you which quite annoying. I guess it's time to visit others as the dining experience is getting awful.

We had lunch at the restaurant on a weekday. The restaurant was well lit and spacious. The fish soup was simply delicious, and the waiter would top up the soup when necessary. We also loved the hei-zho, though we found our veg dish slightly salty. The lao-ban-niang was gracious to let us stay longer than we should, even though it was a bit close to their afternoon closing time. In short, we would go back again.

First time visit. Amazing! Tasty food, good environment, good services. Only limited 60min dining a bit rush. Feel pressure. May the management consider 90min dining during off peak 2-5pm.
