Editor’s Note

Last updated 3 Aug 2026

Our take: Lai Huat Signatures (Buffet) in Gambas offers a Chinese seafood buffet experience that leans towards hearty, family-style zi char.

The standout dish, consistently praised, is the Sambal Fish, noted for its generous portion, flavourful sambal, and spicy kick.

While some find the fish itself can be a bit dry, the sauce is a definite highlight.

Other well-received items include the crispy Prawn Paste Chicken, comforting Trio Egg Spinach, and the Curry Fish Head.

We note that not all signature dishes hit the mark, with some reviewers finding the fried pomfret, crayfish, and abalone broccoli underwhelming.

However, the Salted Egg Yolk Calamari and Crab and Egg White Tofu are recommended alternatives.

Portions are generally large, so we advise caution when ordering, especially for smaller groups.

Drinks are on the pricier side at around $5 per person for chrysanthemum tea.

We think this is a solid option for an affordable, satisfying family meal, particularly if you focus on their stronger dishes.

Best to avoid peak times like Mother's Day to minimise wait times and service issues.

Food was good, came on weekend dinner not many people. Food was served very fast. Curry fish head is amazing sauce bombz. Sambal fish's sambal is good but the fish a bit dry.
