This is a review of the new Marutama outlet at ION Orchard. I had the Stone Bowl Dandan Tsukemen unique to this branch, and the side chicken balls. The latter were yummy, but the Tsukemen is one of the worst I have had. The broth is too thick and much less flavourful or fragrant than other versions. Service is friendly and efficient. Although there’s a line at meal times, for me it’s less good than the ramen place that stood at the same location before.

Decent variety. Nice atmosphere. The food is good and reasonably priced for Orchard Rd location. Staff are pleasant, but service is not proactive. We had to ask for everything: napkins (only one provided for two pax!!), tea refills, etc.

Beware : the dishes are much bigger in photos than in real life!

We had the Yuki Omakase ($200++) at lunch. Most pieces are excellent, especially the tuna appetiser, otoro, uni, and unagi. The rice dish is underwhelming. Very professional service. If we had the omakase with cooked dishes, maybe it would be more at par with other top sushi counters in Singapore.

Sushi Tei is the equivalent of Crystal Jade Kitchen for mid-level Japanese dining in Singapore. Not the best, but reliable quality and reasonable pricing make it a dependable place . We have been loyal customers for 30 years now.

Not the best, but still very good sushi counter. Fish is very fresh. Service is not very pro active; they do not replenish our ginger. Overpriced, but not outrageously so.
