Editor’s Note

Last updated 29 May 2026

Our take: Gillman Seafood Restaurant, now located in a canteen on the 6th floor of an industrial building, appears to be a solid option for value-for-money zi char, particularly their Curry Fish Head.

Reviewers consistently praise the freshness of ingredients and the balanced flavours, noting dishes are 'not too salty or sweet.' The $68 set meal, which includes the signature Curry Fish Head and is reportedly 'more than enough for 4 pax,' seems to be a popular and well-received option.

Prices for ala carte items are generally considered reasonable.

However, the location presents some challenges.

It's described as 'difficult to find' and not easily accessible without a car.

Parking can be expensive, with one reviewer noting a $5 charge for less than an hour on a Sunday.

Despite the good food, the new location can be 'virtually deserted' on Sunday evenings, which might affect the dining atmosphere.

We'd recommend Gillman Seafood for groups looking for an affordable and tasty zi char meal, especially if you're driving and can navigate the parking situation.

Best for a quiet weekend dinner rather than a bustling experience.

What customers say

Gillman Seafood Restaurant receives positive feedback for its delicious and reasonably priced zi char dishes, particularly the curry fish head and ginger fried pork.

Many customers appreciate the value for money, especially with the set meals.

However, the restaurant's location on the 6th floor of an industrial building is often cited as difficult to find and inconvenient without a car, with expensive parking being a recurring issue.

Portions for certain dishes, like the sliced stirfry fish ginger, have been noted as small.
