Read the rave reviews of this restaurant and decided to take a look the restaurant. . We were attended to by a short lady in her 50s-60s who sold the restaurant aggressively to us, promising good and delicious food. We had a 8-10 course Chinese New Year dinner. The dishes were below average. The fish was a huge disappointment the flesh was extremely hard. When I feedbacked to the same short lady who attended and collected the deposit prior to CNY, she shrugged it off and said nonchalantly - hard but still can eat right? One of my cousins commented that the noodles were overcooked and it was as though the restaurant outsourced to a lousy zi char stall to prepare. There was zero finesse at all to any of the dishes. Nevermind about the noodles but being named a seafood restaurant, you would at least expect a reasonable standard for their fish. What a shame. When we were about to leave the restaurant, our cars were blocked by other cars parked back to back in their small car park compound with limited lots. . We had to ask the service staff several times, going up and down the stairs requesting for them to ask the patrons to move their cars so that we can vacate. It definitely made good sense for them and it is in the restaurants interest so that other customers can take our lots. Somehow the management staff , short lady were not in sight at all, and left the poor china waiters to attend to this issue. There are zi char stalls who can do better than them. First and last visit. Never again.

Ocean Kingdom Seafood Restaurant has been a favorite restaurant of mine for some time. While others might swear by the famous crab stalls at Ang Mo Kio or Toa Payoh (where a few crabs might cost $100-200), Ocean Kingdom has been my top choice when I'm craving for crabs or need a good hearty meal with friends/family. On the recent dine out - we ordered some of their signature dishes: crispy brinjals with pork floss (even my dear friend who hates brinjals is wow by this dish), Coffee ribs (fav of a few of my friends), Chilli crab (wonderful gravy), Black pepper crab (sweet and spicy), Steamed scallops with garlic (one is never enough for garlic lovers), Seafood hor fun or rice noodle (if u think that hor fun is such a common dish, pls try their hor fun), spinach bayam in superior stock, and lobster in white sauce with fried buns (we keep dunking the buns into the sauce). We even had 2 bottles of wine (first btl is free corkage, 2nd btl at $10). And all these cost us abt SGD $300 (9 persons). What more can u ask for? Freshest seafood (the Cheo family deals with live seafood supplies) cooked in the tastiest way, good service, and most reasonable price.
