    Been here 5 times or so. Must say the food is good but service is terrible. They mistook the order twice so far. Last time I ordered chicken don they took it as chicken pasta. 2nd time I ordered chicken do they made salmon don. I went down to ask if this is right they said they need to charge me the price difference. I told them it’s their mistake, receipt says chicken don I paid for chicken don they are the one made salmon don.. they never apologize. I needed to wait another five mins until they cook the proper food for me. I don’t think I’d come back after such an unpleasant experience.

    One of the more affordable options in the area. Food is okay, but the service by aunty is good. We had the mentaiko salmon and smoked duck bowl and it was average. Good to pop by if you’re looking to settle your lunch quickly.

    Affordable & good. Would have prefer the linguine to be warmer though it doesn't really affect my enjoyment of the meal. This small gem served a comprehensive menu, hopefully most are good as I will be back for more.

    [Feb 2024] One of the few eateries that open past 8pm at Marina One. Service is friendly, mentaiko salmon was visually pleasing and cooked to perfection. Price is also slightly more affordable than many Japanese casual eateries. Highly recommended 👍

    For my Salmon mentaiko don, the salmon was well-timed to cook to a nice soft texture, and not fishy. The vegetable is the one that most stands out. It's fully steamed till it's soft! A first for me of all the healthy bowls out there.

    Rlly good and affordable Japanese rice bowls. Pork belly don was especially good, pork was humongous and melted in my mouth. Smoked duck and fried chicken was decent too. Soft pearly rice covered in sweet sauce. Both under 10 dollars nett so rlly worth too.

    July 2021 Third time ordering, though this time was a condo groupbuy. The smoked duck, chicken katsu and braised pork were tasty, and of a generous portion. The rice was a tad sticky and we missed having the onsen eggs this time. Worth ordering again. June 2020 Ordered the Gyu don and the chicken and duck rice set - both were delivered on time, and travelled well. The beef was soft and flavorful, while the deep fried chicken katsu and duck slices were tasty as well. The onsen eggs were nice.

    Ordered smoked duck and crispy chicken don. Tasted above average and it was a good lunch for less than $10. Service was prompt too. They don’t accept credit card as form of payment. Worth a revisit to try other items on the menu.

    They seem to have shifted over from Clifford Centre. It used to be much cheaper, but now prices have risen, probably due to rent. Got unagi don as my first meal to try. Was hoping they give more vegetables, as they look little compared to the size of the unagi. Unagi looks huge for the price. I would expect this to be more than $15 in other places. There's some pickles and broccoli and edamame and 1 cherry tomato. Quite a bit of variety though the portion is little. Spices in the rice makes it taste good. Overall still pricey for me to eat as an everyday meal, but would definitely have it again as a form of reward to myself. Recommended. Edit: tried the shio pasta. Portion is relatively small and mushroom sauce is a bit too little. Can be rather dry. The sauce is quite thick though so it complements the pasta. Fried chicken is well, hard to fail. Also tried the smoked duck and crispy chicken don. Quite value for money given the portion and taste.

    The pasta is delicious with tasty fried chicken. Portion is big too. The female staff is friendly. Pork Belly Don is well done.

    Had a small gathering here today. Food was simple and great! Dont belittle the unseemingly portion, it is quite filling. Had our first yusheng of the year here as well.

    Ordered the Shio Pasta on their recommendation. The dish came with a mushroom soup-like sauce that was slightly salty and not very creamy. Didn’t really like that. The spaghetti was tossed in some oil that I can’t quite figure out, but it’s plated well. This too, was salty. Quite mixed, but not a fan of it but can see how some could like it. The chicken was the highlight, fried well, super crispy breading and a hint of spice. This let them eke out a 7/10 considering the price of the location. It may not be my cup of tea but I think if you’re willing to try it, or like salty things, you could give it a shot.

    Delicious and healthy food

  • 5/5 Yuka L. 1 year ago on Google
    Ordered smoked duck and crispy fried chicken don. Portion is generous imo. Rice a bit clumpy but that did not affect my satisfaction. Price ($9.90) is also pretty affordable considering the prime location Shop has a few seating places and gets crowded at 11.50am on work days. So drop by earlier if you want to dine in.

  • 2/5 Emily S. 6 years ago on Google
    Was excited about this muchly raved about food court food, but it was quite disappointing... The Capellini Pasta was wayyy too salty for me - something in the Creamy Mushroom & Crabmeat sauce? Which is a shame because the mushroom slices & chunks of crab meat were quite impressive. The add-on I opted for was the Chicken Roulade Slices; quite well done & tender, I must say. This wasn't too salty. I'm convinced it's the sauce. The promo is good value for money, though, especially for those working in the area. I'm in no hurry to return, but if I do I'll want to try a different sauce.. I don't know if it's worth a special trip down just for this. It really is a shame that this was soo salty, because the angel hair pasta was perfectly al dente.

    Spicy prawn noodle was too spicy for me. Otherwise the portion is great value for money!

    Got the Chicken Unagi Rice Bowl via Mealpal. It is a good deal via Mealpal but not sure the exact price of this. Served with alot of rice and sufficient meat, definitely will get you full. Hope the noodle will be on MealPal too!

  • 5/5 Franz L. 4 years ago on Google
    Taste and affordabilty usually don't go hand in hand especially in food courts. I must say the value presented here is awesome. Today is my first visit and i had the crispy chicken bowl...boy was i impressed. Think I've found a go to foe the daily grind.

  • 5/5 Douglas S. 4 years ago on Google
    Good stuff, the fried chicken is awesome and guaranteed food coma when paired with the cream pasta.

  • 5/5 Ka Y T. 4 years ago on Google
    Just an FYI for the folks who'll miss this place: They're moving to Marina One next week!! The guy even gave me 2 discount vouchers for the new joint! Where else can you find an eel bowl under $10?! 🍚

  • 5/5 Enrica G. 4 years ago on Google
    They recently moved to this new place at marina one and its honestly really good as the food options at Marina One is not as many so having Little Bowl at Marina One is really awesome! They have amazing dons (rice bowls) as well as pasta and its pretty much under $10 and the portions are pretty large which I think its pretty worth your money considering the place I am at. I tried the salmon mentaiko and OMG it literally melts in your mouth! The spicy prawn pasta is also TO DIE FOR because its between the mix of spicy and umami and they even have chorizo sausage inside! Like how often do you get chorizo and prawn together? Surprisingly its SO GOOD! Do pop by this place if you happen to be around or just work around there because I think the food is pretty amazing and bonus is that its really bang for your buck. Would continue supporting!

  • 4/5 Siewyee B. 6 years ago on Google
    Angel hair pasta with mushroom cream sauce was spectacular, packed with umami but not salty. Chicken roulade was pretty impressive, tender and well-made.

  • 4/5 Suehean L. 3 years ago on Google
    Cozy place with good food at decent prices.

  • 4/5 Albert Y. 3 years ago on Google
    Food is decent, price has risen 40-50% from Clifford centre. Location is not very convenient if you do not live/work around.

  • 5/5 Ember S. 3 years ago on Google
    Nice owners. When I posted on fb that they miss out one ingredient for tapao, they offer to make it up for me. Food is nice and cheap!
