Oysters were good for its price and didn’t expect to find such a good oysters in a food court. Their signature Wagyu Don wasn’t really up to my expectations. The beef was cooked well-doned and the rice lacks abit of flavor. However their staff seems like they have a little bit of attitude problem when serving the customers. Maybe they are tired.

The beef in the beef Don was very hard to chew. They never even ask how I want my beef to done also. I assume no option. The prices for this beef don is not the worth. My point of view. The oyster is fresh but the cheese favour taste average only.

Usually my friend and I would come here mainly for the oysters because it is not only fresh but also plump and pretty flavourful. Furthermore the price point for these oysters is pretty decent (for 12 pieces it is only ~40 dollars)
As for their Donburi, I have tried the teriyaki chicken and pork belly (?) it is flavourfu, but the chicken may be slightly leaning towards the saltier side. Nonetheless still a good place to pop by

The salmon mentaiko hits the spot with just the right crisp, texture and taste and slightly spicy mentaiko with good portion size.
Oysters are plump and juicy
Convenient location. Use fairprice app for 10% discount. Just funny small space.

Amazing find at the foodcourt of JEM Mall. Large variety of donburi offered, yakiudon, fresh and grill oysters and even draft beer when you're up for a treat!
Surprised to find they have super value deals and 1+1 lunch set at $10.90/$11.90! Amazing sets to beat the inflation! Most of all, food is tasty and value for money!

Went here for dinner, it was first time for me to try this stall. Located in JEM Kopitiam Food Court. I had their Christmas Special Promotion this month: Mentaiko Scallops Unagi Don with Miso Soup, and my friend had the Teriyaki Chicken Don.
Both Donburi were very nice, and all the ingredients were fresh. The meat and seafood were well marinated, and it goes well too with the teriyaki sauce. Mentaiko sauce was nice too. The poached egg was perfectly cooked and still got runny river yolk, also the Onsen egg was nice and perfectly cooked. Pickled was nice too. Generous portion of meat, and rice portion also just nice. I highly recommend to try their food.

Prices start at $3.90 apiece but get cheaper the more you order, be it 6 pieces or a dozen. You can enjoy these freshly shucked oysters as they are or have them grilled with 5 different flavours! Love how plump and creamy those oysters were, and the garlic dressing complemented their briny sweetness! If you enjoy more intense flavours, go for Sambal or Truffle Mayo!
They also serve a decent variety of donburis to go with that yummy trove of oysters. Got their promo item Iberico Belly Don and was shookt by the substantial portion of meat and shibazuke/purple pickles atop a big bowl of rice. Not quite melt-in-the-mouth in terms of texture, but the Iberico belly slices are tender enough and well-seasoned with a lingering smoky char! 🔥

The beef sukiyaki don was awesome, tho abit spicy, but they do accept certain request like i requested no onions and they were ok. that’s one of the added stars that i liked abt this place.
Those oysters were really fresh, priced decently.
they are located in the kopitiam of jem, with some bar seats right at their stall. Will love to be back for more!
Oh you could also order in advance via the fairprice app!

Surprised at how fresh and creamy the oysters are! Chicken was good, love the purple pickles. Ebi fry also good because it didn't have the taste of overfried oil.
Maybe a minor issue could be that the edamame side could be salted slightly.
Good service too.
Hope that you guys maintain this level food and service quality 👍🏼
Edit: just has the unagi today and it's good too ♥️

I got 6 oysters for $20.90. The oysters were sweet, juicy, and succulent. I waited less than 5 minutes, and the oysters were shucked on the spot. The service staff was very efficient. Also comes with Tabasco sauce. Able to sit near the stall as there were counter seats.

Decently priced donburi. Quality of food is good. Serving is hearty, beef/prawn/salmon were fresh. Beer is cheap too!

i got the mentaiko salmon don set and they were really generous with the sauce, the gyoza was perfectly fried to crispiness; overall everything tasted really nice. Their service was excellent as well, when i realise the egg was missing, one of the staff notice my concern and immediately resolved it for me, even adding an additional egg to compensate :)
