Yes, you’re right, we’re referring to The Line at Shangri-La. For seafood fanatics, it has a “Seafood Extravaganza” dinner buffet on Thursdays, which is essentially seafood galore for any seafood lover.

Among all the seafood buffet options in Singapore, we love that The Line has an outdoor seafood BBQ station, complete with items that taste great grilled, such as slipper lobster, squid, and prawns. Don’t sleep on its grilled oysters, whether it is with its unique salted egg bechamel sauce or with XO sauce.

9. Tung Lok Seafood

Multiple stores islandwide.
Open: Operating hours vary across stores

Why visit? Tung Lok Seafood is a well-established household name in Singapore, known for its fresh and quality seafood, as well as comforting Chinese classics done right. However, we bet you didn’t know that it also has buffet options. 

To be exact, it has an a la carte seafood deluxe dinner buffet where you can enjoy your fill of its delectable seafood dishes such as its drunken herbal prawn and deep-fried sea bass with light soy sauce. Unfortunately its popular dishes such as chilli crab and fried mantou and steamed scallop with garlic and vermicelli are only limited to one  serving per table, but at less than S$50 per diner, we think it’s fair game. 

Take note that each outlet offers a slightly different menu for its seafood buffets, so do check out its website for its respective menus to plan which outlet to head down to. 

Tung Lok Seafood’s a la carte buffet prices:

• Lunch — From S$39.80 for adults, S$29.80 for children

Escape the hustle and bustle of city life with Sunday brunch at The Kitchen Table, located in W Singapore, in Sentosa. 

The restaurant has a rotating focus, with the latest highlight being Japanese A5 wagyu for its June edition of its Sunday brunches (S$128 per diner), but its seafood selection is by no means any less impressive. 

You can expect a chilled seafood bar, smoked and marinated seafood, sashimi, and even the restaurant’s signature live lobster pasta with juicy heirloom tomatoes and lobster stock. We’re already licking our lips while typing this!

Well-loved for decades as a go-to buffet destination, Carousel at Royal Plaza on Scotts deserves a spot on this list for its reliable fare, unbeatable location, and relatively affordable prices (for its variety) over the years.

While its regular lunch, dinner and even its high tea buffet spreads come with a good amount of seafood options, we think the true seafood lovers ought to go for the lobsters and crabs menu (available Sunday and Monday evenings), which runs till the end of June.

There, you can expect seafood on ice, luxurious items such as steamed snow queen crab, Japanese-style poached baby lobster and even a lobster risotto scented with truffle. If these aren’t tempting enough options to lure you down, we don’t know what will!

Its most value-for-money buffet option is its omizu buffet, available not only for lunch and dinner, but for high tea, too. Expect over 200 items, served up to you tableside, from everyone’s favourite sashimi, to even nori taco and sushi tacos!
