Alley Wei operates within the vibrant Makan Town food area of Northpoint City at 930 Yishun Ave 2, #B1-151 (South Wing), bringing authentic halal-certified Taiwanese street food to Singapore's northern region. This restaurant serves as a cultural bridge, offering traditional and freshly made Taiwanese and Chinese street food favorites that have been adapted to meet halal dietary requirements without compromising on authenticity. The establishment operates daily from 11am to 9pm, providing consistent access to comfort food for the diverse Yishun community.
The menu showcases a comprehensive selection of Taiwanese specialties including silky beancurd with peanut or soymilk options, savory beef beancurd, pan-fried and steamed dumplings, and hearty beef noodles. Popular items include their sesame chicken noodles (.80), pan-fried chicken pau (.50/3pcs), and pan-fried dumplings (.80/6pcs), alongside traditional beverages like soybean milk and almond soybean milk. The restaurant also serves scallion pancakes, youtiao (fried dough sticks), and various noodle soups that capture the essence of Taiwan's bustling night market culture.
While customer reviews are mixed, with some praising the beef noodles as "good standard" and appreciating the authentic beancurd and soya milk offerings, Alley Wei represents an important addition to Singapore's halal dining scene by making Taiwanese cuisine accessible to Muslim diners. The restaurant also operates another location at Tampines Mall, indicating their growth within Singapore's competitive food landscape. As part of a larger F&B group that includes Express Teppan-yaki outlets, Alley Wei demonstrates the increasing demand for diverse halal international cuisine options in Singapore's suburban shopping centers.

Hot Sweet Beancurd. The design and layout are good. Hope the customer service learns to greet customers. Good blend of vibes. They've done another renovation and shifting.

The sweetness and proportion are well-balanced, making the soybean and chinchau (cold) taste really great. The hot beancurd, however, lacked flavor.
After placing our order, we received a buzzer and would self-collect from their service counter. The chicken pancake and red bean pancake are made to order, so they were still hot when collected. However, the frying oil taste was heavy, and the filling could have been more generous.
The noodles were not stirred thoroughly during cooking, resulting in a large clump of undercooked portion. Taste-wise, it was still okay (we ordered beef soup noodles without meat).

Ordered 3 items. Only the beancurd in soy milk was good. The pan-fried dumplings were average. The item with the worst value and taste was the scallion pancake. Please don't order it. It looked like it came straight from a packet, yet tasted worse. It was overly greasy and chewy too. Bad for health. That's the price I paid for not trusting Google reviews.

Firstly, the staff were so unfriendly, except for the aunty who was collecting plates. I probably ordered the wrong dishes. The beef noodle broth was more like vegetable broth, lacking any beef essence. The pancake was very oily and tough.

Taiwanese street food available in a mall setting. It’s not fantastic, but decent. Affordable price.

We've tried their food at the Northpoint branch before, and as always, the quality remains consistent. The frontline staff, mostly seniors, are friendly and hardworking, which adds to the positive experience. We ordered the beef noodle soup; though the broth looked clear, it was packed with flavor from the fresh vegetables and rich beef stock. Overall, we really enjoyed the meal and will definitely return.

A friend brought me here for beef noodles, and I was puzzled to find white radish and carrots in them. I wondered what kind of strange combination that was. Later, after reading other reviews, I realized this is a Taiwanese-style restaurant. However, the scallion pancake still seems a bit like Northwestern style.
This restaurant has a Google rating of only 2.9, mainly due to its high prices. If diners only order beef noodles or pancakes, they shouldn't feel that way. Also, the taste is quite acceptable, though not as delicious as Lanzhou-style noodles. But as a canteen for regular visits, I think the seasoning is acceptable.
I read other reviews mentioning poor service and crowds. I went to eat after 9 pm and didn't encounter a crowded situation. It's just an eatable canteen.

Thumbs up for the food we had!
Hala Chinese cuisine, located right beside the escalator from B1 up to L1. It's a very chilled and laid-back area that you might miss if you don't look left before heading up to Level 1.
Let's dive in!
Food:
What could go wrong with meat? Nothing, especially when the broth is yummy-licious. I can't really explain it in words, but we can definitely say it's very yummy and best paired with something spicy.
Service:
The food was prepared very fast, under 5 minutes from ordering to ready. So yeah, we were glad we didn't have to wait long because we needed a quick meal.
Atmosphere:
Despite being in Tampines Mall, time kind of slowed down in this area. Try it and you'll understand. It's very comforting to know that there are still such places for us to unwind.
All in all, a great place to go to, especially if you haven't tried it yet. A definite recommended makan place!! We actually wanted more, but let's save it for other times la eh
Cheers!

Eating a bowl of beef noodle soup (no beef, so I have stomach space for the amazing gyoza) at this shop is like embodying a sickly Taiwanese child.
You wake up on a cold winter's morning, the sky a pale blue through your bedside window. Birds chirp outside, and Grandmother walks in, carrying a bowl of gentle beef soup, filled with handmade noodles, and a side of handmade gyoza.
Best beef noodles, tastes like home. Best gyoza too, 10/10.
Every time I come to Northpoint, I force anyone I come here with to eat at this shop. I always leave full of warm soup, then food coma for hours.
Just a note: there used to be aunties who could speak both English and Mandarin. However, most recently, a young Chinese man manning the cashier got our order wrong. I believe he only speaks Chinese, so be alert of your order and ask for it to be repeated. We were given beef noodles with beef, instead of no beef. I'd rate that a 2/5 considering the beef is the main star, but it is dry, has pockets of unrendered, unpleasant fat still remaining, and isn't particularly delicious. Not worth the hefty added $3 for the meat at all.

Surprising to see not many customers here on a Sunday. Anyway, we walked in easily and ordered our food. They don't serve pork as they are halal. We had the pancake with egg which was tasty, although not crispy. The chicken soup noodle was normal, the steamed dumplings tasted quite nice, and a bowl of bean curd with grass jelly didn't taste as great. Overall, the meal was normal.
