Our take: Tian Wai Tian Fish Head Steamboat at MBC offers a comforting and satisfying steamboat experience, particularly for its signature Fish Head Steamboat.
We note consistent praise for the rich, umami-packed broth, which deepens in flavour as it boils, and the generous portions of fresh fish slices.
The small steamboat is often cited as sufficient for three people, making it good value.
While the steamboat is a clear highlight, other dishes like the Fried Oyster Egg also receive positive mentions for being crispy and fluffy.
However, some side dishes, such as the Yam Ring with seafood and certain vegetable options, are considered less impressive or overpriced by some diners.
Service is generally self-service for condiments and soup top-ups, which can sometimes require multiple requests.
A notable point of feedback is the ventilation within the food court, which can leave diners smelling of food.
Despite this, the overall consensus points to an enjoyable meal at a reasonable price, especially for the steamboat.
We recommend booking ahead for groups, particularly during lunchtime, as it tends to be packed.
The total damage for a small batang fish pot, two bowls of rice, and a small sambal kang kong for 3 pax was $45.30.

What customers say
Tian Wai Tian Fish Head Steamboat (MBC) is generally well-regarded for its signature fish head steamboat, praised for its rich, umami soup base, fresh and tender fish, and generous portions, often deemed good value for money.
While the steamboat is a highlight, other dishes like fried oyster egg and sambal lala receive decent marks, though some side dishes like yam ring and certain vegetable offerings are considered less impressive or overpriced.
A recurring minor issue is the ventilation in the food court, leading to patrons smelling of food after their meal, and occasional service inconsistencies with soup refills.
