Editor’s Note

Last updated 30 May 2026

Our take: Sushi Express at Hougang Mall offers a convenient and generally affordable option for sushi.

We've noted that staffing levels can significantly impact the dining experience, particularly during peak lunch hours.

Customers report that the selection on the conveyor belt can be limited when the kitchen is busy, and special orders may face long waits or be unavailable.

However, when the outlet is adequately staffed, service is often praised for its attentiveness and efficiency, with staff like Kelly receiving specific commendation for their professionalism.

While the ambiance can be pleasant, some have found the renovated space to be warm.

The quality and variety of items, such as chawanmushi, have also been inconsistent for some patrons.

We recommend visiting outside of the main lunch rush, perhaps after 1:30pm on weekdays, to potentially avoid staffing-related issues and a more limited selection.

It's a reliable spot for a quick, inexpensive meal, but temper expectations for bespoke orders during busy periods.

What customers say

Sushi Express at Hougang Mall receives mixed reviews, with some customers praising the attentive and friendly staff, like Kelly, and the festive ambiance during certain periods.

However, a significant recurring issue is the severe understaffing, leading to long wait times, limited availability of off-belt items, and stress for the lone staff members, particularly during peak hours.

Some also note a decline in the selection and quality of sushi and other items, such as chawanmushi, and find the renovated outlet uncomfortably warm.
