Oriental Chinese Restaurant - Singapore    Share

Not too bad. If you're a tourist or even expat in town, don't be put off of you want to try the Chinese food that people from mainland China really enjoy. Firstly the menu board outside is in Chinese, don't worry about this because your menu will have plenty of pictures with associated numbers. Simply match the number and write the quantity on the order sheet. Remember the staff are really wanting to serve you for a pleasant time, it's their job. So any language barriers shouldn't be an issue, look for some interesting dishes and just try, it's all part of the fun. Here is my recommendation for foreigners: -Sweet and sour pork, much better than at that ordinary westernised Chinese restaurant. -Sliced potato, not bad at all. Quite a nice texture. -Skewers, definitely lamb and beef ones. They're kind of famous for their skewers. Then add extra dishes that might take your fancy. Remember that serving sizes are a little large, just have a look at the other tables. Perhaps you want max 4 dishes plus some 3-4 skewer sets for 2 people.

Nice skewers, especially pork belly, beef, chicken wings and mushrooms. Value for money. Service is quick. 4 stars because the beef noodle soup tasted like instant noodles soup.

If you are looking for cheap and delicious Chinese food with great portion, Oriental has to be the option to go. Delivery was always effective. I would have give 4.5 star if I could, the only reason I didn’t give a 5 star is because the staffs could be more friendly, understand their working hours probably not short or been busy whole day but I don’t think that can be a reason.

Good food but atrocious service. Do visit if you want to pay for their bad attitude

3.5 stars but can't do half star so rounded down. I don't think it is as great as everyone claims, but still good. Prices are reasonable considering it is on prime estate. Enjoyed the skewers (of course) and the fried shredded potato dish (see pic). I found the 辣子鸡/ fried chilli chicken too salty. Extremely popular but at least there is ample seating. Also they will only seat when the entire party has arrived. You've been warned.
