LiXin Teochew Fishball Noodles - Orchard ION

Had to try Li Xin Teochew Fishball Noodles after hearing mixed reviews, and honestly, I loved it! Some people say it’s overrated, but for me, it completely lived up to the hype. The noodles were flavorful, the soup was comforting, and the star of the show was definitely the fishballs. They were incredibly fresh, bouncy, and perfectly chewy!! I especially appreciated how simple yet satisfying the whole dish was. Nothing overly fancy, just quality ingredients done really well. If you’re a fan of fishballs, this place is absolutely worth a try. I would happily come back again just for those chewy fishballs alone! 🍜🐟✨💕

New look, new menu ✨

One of the best fishball noodle spots in Singapore, especially if you’re craving a comforting local meal while shopping around Orchard Road. The fishballs at Li Xin really stand out — fresh, springy, and packed with flavour without tasting overly processed. The noodles were well seasoned and the soup had that classic clean Teochew-style flavour that feels simple but very satisfying. Portions were decent, prices were reasonable considering the ION Orchard location, and service moved quite efficiently even during busy meal hours. Love love love the fresh pork lard. What I liked most was that the food still retained a very authentic local hawker taste despite being located inside a shopping mall. It’s a great option for tourists wanting to try Singapore fishball noodles in a comfortable environment, or locals looking for a reliable quick meal in town. Definitely one of the better places in Orchard for traditional Singapore fishball noodles and local comfort food.

the only thing i hated is the fact that the bowl was messy but other than that i was happy with my bowl. i got the signature but you should follow the locals and just order the fishballs! the fishball was amazing, it was very smooth and had the right bounce not sure if that comes from being freshly made or their recipe is simply spot on.

Singapore speed-run: food, friends & a little retail therapy Had the absolute best time doing a full-on foodie marathon through Singapore with my lovely bestie, Grace ; honestly the best kind of travel is when you’re just eating your way through the city with someone who knows all the good spots. First stop: LiXin Teochew Fishball Noodles at ION Orchard—one of Mama Gigi’s (an Indonesian celebrity) favourites apparently, so expectations were high 😄 The fishballs absolutely delivered: bouncy, springy, and super satisfying. The broth was more on the mild side, and the noodles didn’t quite steal the show for me, but Grace insists there are even better hidden gems around Singapore… so I’m officially ready for part two of this mission. Bonus points for location (hello Orchard Road shopping after carbs) and for the kind of company that makes even “just okay” food feel like a great memory.

It was the weekend, yet surprisingly there was no queue. Still, I decided to give it a shot. Most of the staff are youngsters now, definitely not the same crew as before. The noodle portion is generous. But honestly, that’s about it. The dish was lacking in every other way; flavor was bland, noodles were overly soft, and there was barely any sauce. Even the fishballs don’t taste like they used to. If you're craving the original standard, I'd suggest trying another branch, like the one at MBS. Hopefully that one still tastes the way it should. PS: I can't even finish it. It was horrible

Not the best but just good, the texture of noodle was perfect, fish ball wasn’t too fishy but the broth was light, but overall good except the service, the seller was grumpy

*Teochew Fishball Noodles* at ION Orchard — honestly a must-eat every time I’m in Singapore (and yes, they’ve got Michelin ⭐). The fishballs and fish dumplings are SO good — super fresh, bouncy, and naturally sweet. The soup is light but flavorful with that clean sweetness, and the fishballs have that perfect chewy bite. Go for dried mee pok, you’ll get crispy pork lard bits mixed in‍. Highly recommend ordering it dry — way more shiok. Only SGD 8.80 for a full bowl with noodles, fishballs, and fish dumplings — seriously worth it.. 😋
