Editor’s Note

Last updated 21 Jul 2026

Our take: Deng Wen Ji offers a mixed bag, with its Wanton Mee generally receiving positive feedback.

We note consistent praise for the well-caramelised char siew, springy noodles, and generous, crispy pork lard.

The wantons are often described as sizeable and plump, though some find the prawn flavour subtle.

The soup is frequently highlighted as old-school and comforting.

However, the claypot rice draws divided opinions; while some laud its charcoal aroma and rich flavour, others report it as lacking flavour, having burnt rice, or tasting heavily of MSG.

Other dishes like crispy prawn paste chicken and Hokkien mee also receive criticism for being overly salty or oily.

Service is frequently commended as prompt, polite, and friendly, even during busy periods.

We think it's worth a visit for the Wanton Mee, especially the $6-$8.50 options, but approach other menu items with caution.

Best for those seeking a Hong Kong-style comfort food experience, provided you're prepared for a potential wait for the claypot rice.

The wanton mee here has a distinct Malaysian flavour. The noodles are springy and coated in the rich aroma of pork lard. The perfectly charred char siew, with a delightful 7:3 lean-to-fat ratio, comp…

Very disappointing experience. The service was poor and the staff were rude, which already set a negative tone for the meal. The food was even more disappointing. Almost every dish was excessively sa…

Nice zi char-style spot with a slightly unusual mix of dishes like wanton mee & claypot rice. Came mainly for the wanton mee after seeing their chilli—and it didn’t disappoint. They use that bright c…

Very popular eatery with apparently a long history. Saw that almost every table had the wonton mee, so of course I had to try it myself. Noodles were thicker than typical which gave it a more satisfyi…
