Editor’s Note

Last updated 29 May 2026

Our take: Joyful Seafood presents itself as a new zi char stall in Dover Crescent, offering a mix of hits and misses.

The Braised Bee Hoon with Seafood in Fish Sauce, often referred to as White Beehoon, is highlighted as a star dish for its flavourful broth, though some experiences note a lack of wok hei.

The Black Bean Dace Fried Rice is another standout, praised for its unique flavour and mild spice.

However, quality control appears to be an issue, with reports of compromised freshness in dishes like the braised Tofu with cabbage, and a serious concern regarding an insect found in a Foodpanda order.

Service also receives criticism, with mentions of rude cashiers.

While some dishes like the Pumpkin Seafood Pao Fan and Xin Zhou Bee Hoon are deemed acceptable, the Three Cup Chicken is consistently advised to be skipped due to an unusual flavour profile.

We think this spot is best approached with caution, focusing on the recommended bee hoon and fried rice dishes, and perhaps opting for dine-in to assess freshness directly.

A reliable everyday option, not a destination meal.

What customers say

Joyful Seafood receives mixed reviews, with some patrons praising specific dishes like the Braised Bee Hoon with Seafood and Black Bean Dace Fried Rice for their unique flavors.

However, consistency in 'wok hei' and dish quality, such as the Three Cup Chicken and Dried Radish Beancurd, is a concern.

Negative experiences include finding insects in food, issues with food freshness (sour tofu), and reports of rude cashier staff.

Both cashiers are severely rude. Why glare at your customer if he could not catch you?
