Our take: Oriental Food offers a selection of Northeastern and Sichuan cuisine within a Yishun coffeeshop setting.
We see consistent praise for their La Zi Ji, described as boneless, crispy, and perfectly spiced.
The Sweet and Sour Crispy Pork also stands out for its texture and balanced sauce, with one reviewer calling it a 'renowned dish.' The Mapo Tofu and Boiled Fish with Pickled Mustard Greens are noted for their authentic numbing spice and sour-spicy profiles respectively.
Portions are generally considered generous and affordable, with one visit averaging around $12 per person.
However, some dishes receive mixed reviews.
The signature green peppercorn fish is described as average and potentially fishy, and the grilled skewers are sometimes served lukewarm.
There are also comments about the use of bamboo skewers and disposable cutlery, which some diners find less hygienic or desirable.
Service can be inattentive, with potential delays due to staffing.
We'd recommend focusing on the La Zi Ji and Sweet and Sour Crispy Pork for a satisfying meal.
Best for those seeking affordable, hearty Chinese fare in Yishun, but be prepared for a casual coffeeshop experience and potential service lags.
Skip the peak dinner rush if you prefer a quieter experience.
