Although restaurant was packed - food was promptly served. The groupa that we opted for in the hotpot was really fresh. Request for stock refill was cheerfully accomodated

The fish head steamboat is good but very costly. The other dishes are not too bad, but the cost is high for the venue and location. It is strange that they charge so much for zi char. Will not go back again even though the food is good. This is because I can get good zi char at one third the price.

Food and services are average. We ordered steamboat and some other dishes. The waitress recommended roasted chicken which was quite bland and dry. Not worth traveling if you are staying far.

The fish head steamboat was delectable and I find the quality of food generally superior. However, the wait time to be seated was disappointing. Walk-in customers were seated earlier than two different parties who had placed reservations (including myself). My partner and I were made to wait an additional half an hour before being seated and served. Very deplorable planning indeed.

Houseflies in the restaurant n on the table. Hygiene can be improved. Can’t stay long to chat as they kept asking if you are done. Food is not too bad but the soup could be hotter if the charcoal fire is bigger.

I was rather upset that the restaurant personnel called me to say that they have to push my reservation time back by half an hour as they are overbooked. If they can’t take so many bookings at any one time, they should not put so many timing options on the reservation. What is the purpose of making reservation if it is not adhered to? Rather disappointed that despite the customers making the requested adjustment, the personnel did not make any effort to thank or show appreciation for it. Even free peanuts or desserts would have been a great gesture for the inconvenience caused.

Fish soup was absolutely delish! However, it was pricey. Staff could do with more service training. The environment was noisy so don't expect to hear your fellow diners.

Got the $55 red grouper steamboat that was meant for 4 pax, but the fish meat was pathetically meager. i can honestly scoop the entire pot worth of meat into a little rice bowl. Not worth for $55. will not visit again.

Basically, most of the dishes are nice..Fish is fresh, prawn paste chicken is also delicious n will recommend friends to eat at Whampoa Keng! Service is also good... when we told them the sambal kangkong was salty, they immediately took away n cooked another plate less salty! Keep up your good service!

Advanced Reservation system is efficient and orderly at the restaurant , seated promptly. Red grouper steamboat superb, chicken dish recommended crispy yet tender inside. Warm drinks preferred and they have a few. Desserts delightful. Ate and left in 45 minutes. Not a place to dilly Manager or main usher very good service.

I loved to drink the soup in the steamboat. It’s very tasty and you won’t feel thirsty after drinking the soup. The fishes are very fresh. I will recommend to my friends despite the price is a bit on the expensive side.

The salted Egg tohu was too expensive because minimum order is 5 pieces and the bill charged for the towel even though they were being returned to waitress before food being served.

Although a little pricey on the fish head steamboat, I really enjoyed the soup which was genuinely tasty and I didn't get that "MSG effect" afterwards. Their prawn rolls is also a winner. Will re-visit again when I get that fish soup craving.
