Editor’s Note

Last updated 29 May 2026

Our take: Hoy Yong Seafood Restaurant, despite its accolades and Michelin recognition, presents a mixed bag for diners.

We see consistent feedback regarding long wait times, particularly if you arrive after 5:45 PM, with some experiencing delays of 30-60 minutes for their food.

While the coffee shop environment is often described as clean and bright, the service can be slow for a zi char establishment.

Food quality appears to be a point of contention.

Some reviewers praise the 'wok-hei' and delicious dishes, specifically mentioning the pig trotter and yam ring (which cost $59 SGD together) and the herbal chicken.

However, others find the food ordinary, overly salty, and not worth the price, noting that portions aren't always generous.

We'd recommend Hoy Yong for those who prioritize a clean dining environment and are willing to brave the wait for specific dishes like the pig trotter and yam ring.

Best for an early dinner to avoid the longest queues.

With the wait time and accolades displayed, probably expected much more. Seating arrangement was a joke and service was so slow for a Zichar store. Everything tasted ordinary so probably will not come…

Honestly it’s quite hard to give a Zhi char stall 1 star in sg but this one deserves it. Empty kopitiam and took 40mins for 3 simple dishes. Most salty dishes I’ve ever tasted at a Zhi char stall, eve…

Just had dinner there on Sat. Waiting time around 30 minutes. Foods wise are good. The 猪肚汤 very nice! The herbal chicken too! Staffs are helpful.
