Lee Wee & Brothers has evolved from a single hawker stall in 2000 into one of Singapore's most recognizable halal-certified local food brands, maintaining seven halal-certified outlets alongside comprehensive catering services. This culinary institution has become synonymous with authentic Singaporean flavors, particularly their signature otah and nasi lemak preparations that utilize fresh ingredients and family recipes passed down through generations. The brand's success represents the successful modernization of traditional hawker culture, bringing beloved local dishes from street-side stalls to premium shopping mall locations while maintaining the authenticity and halal certification that made them a household name across Singapore's diverse communities.
The restaurant's menu centers around iconic Singaporean dishes, with their flavourful Nasi Lemak and traditional Otah serving as flagship offerings that showcase the depth of local culinary heritage. The Nasi Lemak with Fried Chicken Wing represents their most popular combination, featuring crispy, juicy chicken paired with fragrant coconut rice and house-made spicy sambal that delivers the complex flavor profiles Singaporeans expect from authentic preparations. Their Otah selection demonstrates remarkable variety, offering Original Fish Otah, Squid Otah, Prawn Otah, and Fish Roe Otah variations that cater to different taste preferences while maintaining the traditional steamed preparation methods that define quality otah across Southeast Asia.
Strategic locations at premier shopping destinations including ION Orchard, JEM, NEX Mall, and Tampines Mall have positioned Lee Wee & Brothers as an accessible option for both tourists seeking authentic local cuisine and residents craving familiar comfort foods. The brand's presence in high-traffic retail environments demonstrates the viability of traditional hawker concepts in modern commercial settings, while their comprehensive catering services extend their reach to corporate events and private functions. As a MUIS halal-certified establishment with annual certification renewals, Lee Wee & Brothers maintains strict adherence to Islamic dietary guidelines while serving as an ambassador for Singaporean cuisine, proving that local food traditions can achieve commercial success while preserving cultural authenticity and religious compliance.

The chicken cutlet set tastes average. I wish the portion could have been bigger. Bought it via Grab. By the way, the otah-otah tastes really good.

This homegrown company has become so large that they make mistakes and don't apologize. Recent orders from them lacked sambal, or the satay came without gravy, or the cucumbers or onions. Their response is 'out of stock.' It baffles me how out-of-stock items can still be sold at the same price. This has happened at least 5 times, hence this post.
Good quality has also gone down, with the rice at times coming soggy or tasteless. The portion of meat is smaller now, but the cost keeps going up.
Be careful with your purchases and how you lend support to their poor practices by accepting it. Do not boycott; we need the economy going, but let them know you are displeased. This is a personal stand in the hope that our service quality will improve, especially now with home orders due to the Covid situation.

Placed an order online for self-collection. Reached there on time, but the orders were not packed, and the staff seemed clueless or uninterested in serving us. To add insult to injury, the rice was undercooked; I could feel the grainy texture of uncooked rice. Rather disappointed.

The aunty tried to push the Assam Fish set, saying it came with rice. When I opened the package, it only had the fish and curry sauce. It's not good value for $4.40, so expensive. Other than that, the fish roe and head otah are nice, but I still find them too expensive at $1.20 each.

So lucky to have a one-on-one experience for the kids to be exposed to the art of wrapping otah while we were there for a meal.

Very friendly and helpful staff. Our order was taken and immediately prepared, even though it was for 15 boxes. My last visit to the main outlet was about 5-6 years ago. LW Brothers' food has never failed us. We usually get it from places like JEM or Raffles City. No regrets buying.

Lee Wee Brothers is my go-to caterer, whether it's for my company's lunch during Covid-19 heightened alert or for personal receptions like housewarmings or family and friends' gatherings before Covid-19. Their food is affordable and tasty, and always a hit with my colleagues, families, and friends. Favorites include curry chicken, mee siam, nasi lemak, and banana leaf squid otah, amongst others. Besides the food, their customer service officers, like Ms. Elsie and Ms. Francel, are exceptional, coupled with their sound product knowledge and willingness to accommodate my requests. Even their delivery personnel are very friendly and prompt during their deliveries. Lee Wee Brothers comes highly recommended.

Very helpful and friendly staff! It was pouring and they had the initiative to walk over to the car
Very helpful and friendly staff! It was pouring, and they had the initiative to walk over to the car in front of the outlet when I was fully prepared to walk to them. Such dedication is rare anywhere and much appreciated here, especially seeing as they're an established company and still go out of their way unasked. The food, needless to say, was awesome as always, without question. Highly recommended!
