The food's taste was usually okay, but the portion size was unacceptable. You pay 13 SGD for just a small bowl of vegetables!
Also, the service wasn't very satisfying. We waited in line for a couple of minutes, and staff walked by without noticing us. We had to stop someone who seemed to have no work to do at the moment. He showed us to our table with much confusion and hesitation on his face (I don't know why). Then we ordered, and the food arrived. However, if we didn't ask, nobody would have known to give us tableware for the food – even after they brought it to our table.
Not a good experience.

I've been a regular customer, but recently the food quantity has dropped. I was told by the staff that the supplier increased costs, leading to smaller portions. I also had to call for my ordered drink, and my request for extra sauce didn't come. Nevertheless, the food still tastes amazing, but considering the portion size and service, it's not worth the cost...

Food was bad. Ordered mee siam & curry noodle. Tasted very… nothing amazing (unlike the reviews said). First and last time here. Sadly, the toast and stuff ends at 5pm, otherwise I think I would have come to try their egg and toast. I understand why there are so many good reviews already – they give freebies…
Good points:
Menu concept is nice.
Free cendol (that tasted better than their paid food).

The food is decent, offering a satisfying balance of flavors and textures. While it may not be exceptional, it is well-prepared and enjoyable, with fresh ingredients and a thoughtful presentation. The seasoning is adequately done, ensuring each bite is flavorful without being overpowering. Overall, it's a solid choice for a pleasant and fulfilling meal, though it may not leave a lasting impression.

What I like about this place:
1) The ambience is very nice. The decor and the music that accompanies it are very pleasant.
2) Their curry noodles (in my opinion) are better than Old Town's. My family and I enjoyed them very much.
3) The Manager's service and explanation of the dishes were excellent. Her warm, lovely smile and greeting truly brightened our day.
What's lacking:
1) The crab was not cracked at all, which made opening it a hassle as the juice might splatter everywhere when one cracks open the shell.
2) We ordered the Trio BBQ Cheese Prawn, and to our surprise, the prawn flesh was only the size of my thumb. Even my daughter questioned why the prawn was smaller than those we usually have in prawn noodles.
Seriously speaking, I'm giving a 5-star review because I really liked the impeccable service rendered by the Lady Manager, which made this trip to Sampan Man a likable one. Having her here at the airport is a good representation of the service in Singapore's F&B industry.
The above is solely my personal experience, and I hope the food standard will improve in the future. Thank you.

Fresh seafood. Made a reservation with a stroller space request, and they helped me with it. The chilli crab sauce is spicy but tasty. Damn fast service; we just ordered, and the food came right up with gloves and an apron. The lala bee hoon served up a whole bowl of lala. The lala was clean with occasional small specks of sand. Cendol is okay. Overall, an enjoyable meal.

Went there for lunch and the food was great. Able to choose your own sauce for the sampan, and the bee hoon soup was great too. They have a kids' menu as well. The chendol and biscuits were free flow too

Nice toasty/grilled buns! (Sorry about the half-eaten pics; I couldn't resist sinking my teeth into the crusty fluff!) Real gula and decent kaya. The butter thickness is just right. The teh is good too. The flavour is just right, without being overwhelming.

An amazing place with a great view to enjoy delicious food. Highly recommended for halal dishes at Jewel. I loved the fish skin with salted egg! Everything was amazing.
