Our take: Syed Restaurant Family, located in Hougang Green, presents a mixed bag based on public feedback.
While some patrons praise the friendly service and the quality of their Biryani Rice with Fried Chicken, other dishes receive less favourable reviews.
The Biryani Rice, specifically, is highlighted for its quality basmati rice and well-balanced, non-overpowering flavour, with the fried chicken noted for its crispy, tender, and juicy texture.
This dish appears to be a consistent standout.
However, there are significant concerns regarding hygiene, with reports of rats and pigeons in the dining area.
Other dishes, like the prata, are described as cold, oily, and pre-made, with one reviewer finding the $2.20 Teh'O Limau Ice overpriced and the egg prata disappointing.
Service, while generally friendly, has also been cited as rude in specific instances.
We think this spot is best for those specifically seeking the Biryani Rice with Fried Chicken, but be prepared for potential inconsistencies in other menu items and hygiene standards.

Teh'O Limau Ice @ $2.20 is ridiculously expensive, and the egg Prata was sad looking with the curry being over spiced (too much rempah). Friendly service crew saved the rating from being a 1.
