About Melben Seafood (Ang Mo Kio)
Melben Seafood (Ang Mo Kio) is a bustling, family-friendly seafood restaurant in the Ang Mo Kio heartland, serving shareable zi char dishes and Singapore-style crab favourites. The atmosphere leans casual and lively — long tables, steamers of seafood arriving at the table, and groups of families and colleagues enjoying weekend feasts.
The typical crowd is local: families celebrating birthdays, neighbourhood groups on weekend dinners and office colleagues dropping by for a hearty midweek meal. Located near Ang Mo Kio town centre and a short ride from Ang Mo Kio MRT, it slots comfortably into the heartland dining scene where Singaporeans hunt for big plates to share.
What makes it distinctly Singaporean is the menu focus — chilli crab, black pepper crab, cereal prawns and other zi char classics served in a convivial setting that echoes kopi shop and hawker conviviality but with full-service dining. Locals use it for special-occasion dinners, casual group gatherings, and weekend seafood nights; it's not a quiet date spot but perfect for a no-fuss makan session with friends and family.
