    A very traditional restaurant with nice view and quality food! Been there a couple of times and their food quality is always consistent, very tasty! It may be a little on the expensive side but it is definitely worth it.

    One downside is that the carpark is small, might be hard to find a lot during peak hour.

    Taiwanese porridge fare in a restaurant setting with a garden view. Pro-tip: Don’t miss the drive in, cos you’ll also miss the free parking. Not crowded during weekday lunch, older waiting staff so I can imagine how overwhelmed they could be when busy as I have come across negative service reviews. For this first visit of mine, service was alright, tea was constantly refilled. Food is alright, no x-factor.

    20 years ago, you could eat such stuff here with 4 persons for $20. Today, it is $20 per person, with relatively simple dishes, and not yet ordering the market price items…. Times have changed…

    Flavour wise, still good flavours, pork was soft, porridge was still porridge…

    Come early for parking space, otherwise take a hike from somewhere nearby…

    Taiwanese-style porridge. Essentially, sweet potato porridge with your choice of side dishes ranging from the simple to the savoury.

    The porridge is smooth and satisfying as porridge does – it’s also free flow and served piping hot in an insulated bucket. This is not Cantonese congee and nor watery Teochew porridge – but something in between.

    Side dishes are impressive in variety and taste. Choosing them depends on your taste. There are braised items that are savoury, plainer options like omelette and tofu, as well as delicate ones like fish and duck.

    The location is blessedly air conditioned so you can enjoy the meal without breaking a sweat. The ample natural lighting and natural view of the park Oasis sits in works wonders for the ambience. Staff is friendly and attentive.

    Pricing is a bit higher than what one would expect from poridge – but you get what you pay for in terms of location and food quality, so it’s still worth it.

    Try the braised duck (you may need to order that in advance because of limited quantities), the pork liver and scallions, the mussels, and the home made bean curd.

    A good place to have Taiwanese porridge that comes with sweet potatoes. The dishes wise is consistent in term of quality and have been in menu since the days they were in Kallang oasis.

    The only feedback is in term of service, they need to be more attentive to customers, as for many times, we have to look for the staff to top up tea and porridge, when the restaurant is not crowded during off peak hours.

    Must have been a change in management. Jeremy and staff are not too good with non-Chinese customers. Ignorant and condescending at times when asking inquiries about food item.

    Although I may have a Burmese name, I am Chinese. For you ignorant folks, it’s just like how Chinese Indonesians do not use their Chinese names.

    This used to be a place that was open until late night, always welcoming and friendly. I don’t know what happened this time around.

    Food is really good but price isn’t good! Spent $120 on a simple dinner for four persons! This was what I said about two years ago.

    Just last Sat 21st May 2022, we were there for our dinner again. Price has gone up significantly and portions are less. We still enjoyed our food until my son bit into something sharp in the fried tofu dish. We called for the supervisor who was apologetic. Certainly, the kitchen staff need to be very careful. It could have hurt my son badly!

    Rundown place with its own free but dusty carpark. Served by an old and sad looking waitress who makes you feel unwelcome. Steam fish is priced on the high side. The food overall is just average.

    Always a splendid experience at Oasis. Staff’s always ready to tend to our requests, and food of course, is just excellent. Go for the plain porridge – so smooth and comforting you can’t stop refilling + it goes with practically any of the other wonderful dishes!

    Thanks Oasis. Love the food, reasonable price, great service and awesome food.

    The Oasis is good to go with a group. The dishes are mainly for sharing, so you will not be able to try many dishes if you eat alone. By default porridge is served here but you can order rice if you prefer not to have porridge. The sweet potato porridge is very simple, and in my opinion is a good base to have.

    However they do not seem to stock a lot of the ingredients so if you go there in the evening, expect that some of the more popular dishes will be sold out.

    My family enjoyed the home delivered meal. It was still piping hot when it arrived and the soupy items were cling wrapped so we still have the delicious gravies.

    The braised lor bak skin was so tender I could easily break it off with my chopsticks but the meat was still intact with good bite.

    I liked the intestines albeit there was still a hint of the offal “gameyness” which is acceptable and that’s what eating offal us about otherwise a chicken dish will do, lol…

    The omelette was fluffy and not too oily. The beef or venison (sorry couldn’t figure out out as I was not the one who ordered) was tender, I like the generous amount of spring onions they put in the dish, too.

    The steamed salted egg yolk minced pork was also tasty and the gravy went well with both rice and porridge.

    Simply loved the cold tofu with century eggs and meat floss, the beansprouts but the star of the meal is the salted egg yolk squid! Oasis really did an outstanding job with the sorting in comparison to the many zi char stalls I’ve tried.

    Although we had many dishes, we did not feel jelat (cloying) after eating. I have been dreading meal times after the recent heavy consumption of rich festive foods and this kind of meal preparation have stimulated my appetite and rekindled nostalgia from their Kallang days.

    The Taiwanese Porridge is not ideal… They added cooked sweet potatoes to white Porridge. Not authentic as the Porridge do not have the infused sweetness if you cook it from scratch. Other dishes are OK. Omelette and Pig Trotters are good.

    Porridge itself is a soft bland canvas, and free flow. I like the special tofu dish and the 3 egg spinach, the former was simultaneously soft and crispy while the latter had a gravy that went well with the porridge.

    Wasn’t too impressed by the braised pork belly as the meat was a little tough at parts. The chye poh omelette too felt a little “overhyped” though admittedly it was fluffy.

    For the 3 of us with 4 dishes (no seafood, nor the peanut / achar appetisers), chrysanthemum tea and 2 desserts, our bill came to $87. That was a little startling. Enjoyed the company and experience though!

    An institution when it comes to Taiwanese porridge in Singaopre. After shifting from its previous premises at the Kallang indoor stadium, the current location at Toa Payoh did not deter the restaurant from offering the same delicious standards for its Taiwan porridge fare. We had venison with spring onion, fresh cockles with its awesome chili sauce, and minced pork with salted egg. Awesome good stuff!

    Was not expecting much from this restaurant, but turn out the food tasted pretty good and the price was reasonable. My favorite amongst the dishes ordered was the prawn paste chicken, pig liver with spring onion (texture of the liver cooked just nice and the sauce goes very well with porridge), steam fish (a bit on the bland side, could have made the soy sauce more salty, but the fish was quite big and very fresh). Fish maw soup is a bit bland, didnt quite like the mango pudding and almond longan.
    Will definitely go back to try their many other dishes.
    Minus 1 star for desserts which didn’t taste great and the lack of variety.

    Like many other patrons, we have been visiting this restaurant since it was previously located beside the old national stadium.

    It’s was a place that the whole family enjoyed. Delicious, affordable, causal dining. NOT ANYMORE. We visited during peak lunch hour, and the adjacent carpark definitely seen much much much better days. The park beside the restaurant was a nice change from the usual brick and mortar facades of this concrete jungle. However, from what I was told, the park does not actually belong to the restaurant, so I will exclude that from my scoring.

    The place was near empty when we arrived. Service was ok, except when they were a bit pushy towards recommendation of items that were “market priced” even though it wasn’t needed. Appetiser of stewed peanuts strongly reminded me of the stuff you get from a can. Food was edible but not memorable in any way. It was a really mediocre lunch, and despite not ordering anything pricey, the bill came up to be higher then expected.

    We definitely miss the charms and food of the old place, but having tasted of how it is now, we won’t be back for sure.

    It was the one and only building in toa payoh Park so you can’t miss it. It was after a few take over until oasis took over.

    Generally we were going for the sweet potato porridge each table get a tub which is lovely. Smooth texture and not smash sweet potato which you still can enjoy it in chunks.

    Dishes were good and flavourful which is rare nowadays. Very simple and basic cooking that bring out the taste of each dishes.

    Recommended if you gonna bring elderly and seniors as their dishes were more of their tasting which they will appreciate more as compare to the kids.

    This restaurant was at Kallang and was very popular with nightclubbers. Famous for their sweet potatoes porridges with a large varieties of traditional dishes. Relocated at this current location, it is far from the glamorous past but still kept its flavour. A nice standalone building in the park with peaceful scenery. Can almost feel like I am in oversea dining here. Their dishes are traditional. The raw cockles is popular here. Black beans sauce fish is slightly saltish but that is where the sweet potatoes porridges comes in. Service is cordial and friendly. Overall, a nice walk in the park feeling.

    Good ambience, food is pretty nice. Porridge as main staple, wide variety of food. You can go light or can go heavy on seafood. Price is ok for a restaurant.

    It’s my second time to Oasis for porridge and we were lucky to get a car park lot in the limited parking area reserved for patrons. Saw that two cars were wheelclamped when we arrived! The porridge came piping hot with sweet potatoes and it was comfort food for me right from the start. We over ordered for 3 pax! Definitely will go again as I love teochew porridge and also we were seated overlooking the iconic Toa Payoh garden which was about the most photographed place last time when couples take their wedding pix there!! Nostalgia for me definitely! Pssst
    ..forgot to mention the dishes were great esp the braised duck!!! Slurp….

    Typical Chinese looking restaurant. Setting is plain but the garden view made up for the plain setting. Lots of dishes to order from the menu, to go with porridge. Love the venison dish, the kailan fried with tau kee dish and the sliced fishes in black bean sauce.

    Had a very good lunch there — porridge with chilli kangkong, sweet-sour pork and tofu. All these would be my go-to dishes.

    The failures are: the steamed pork — it was very porky. We had to add chilli to disguise the taste. The 3-egg vegetable dish was quite ordinary. And avoid the mango pudding — it tasted very artificial.

    The porridge lives up to the name of the restaurant. We like the taste which is unique and my dad took 3 bowls of it and is free flow. The dishes like claypot toufu, frog leg fried with ginger and spring onion, egg, chicken are good since we finished all the food. Restaurant is clean and spacious so is good for family with children. There was no problem with parking since it has parking space in front of the restaurant. Fast and good service.

However, the service here is fair because one of the staff was very impatient and generally focused on serving customers who just arrived, making service very impersonal.

    It was a wonderful lunch with the added trip down memory lane of old style Chinese cooking in Singapore. The nondescript decor and old style tableware brought back memories of the traditional neighborhood Chinese restaurants. The matured serving staff added to the nostalgia.

    We ordered a lazy susan full of dishes to accompany the iconic sweet potato porridge. The sambal was a full flavored and generous smacking of dried shrimps and chillies on the stir fried kangkong vegetable with cockles. The cold chicken feet with Thai sauce was a rare treat. The homemade deep fried tofu wore a crispy coat over the melt-in-your mouth soy beancurd. The omelette had a generous serving of oysters.

    We were not big fans of the signature braised pork due to the rough fibrous texture and the braised pig intestines with salted vegetable could have used more flavor. The boiled chicken was leaner than other versions.

    Haven’t been here for quite a long time. The food was good as we knew it before. Service was good even though there were a couple of minor issues; the waitress keep recommending the expensive dishes and they billed us for 12 paxs (for items that goes by per pax – towels and porridge) when we were only 10. The cashier accepted our feedbacks and refunded the amount overcharged. Parking is very limited and usually it’s full. You should park at Toa Payoh Stadium which is just next door. If you didn’t park at the stadium car park and encountered a full car park at restaurant, you just need to drive just a stone’s throw away further down the road, turn left, that will spin underground across the road to HDB Hub basement car park. After that you just cross the road.

    From Kallang moved to Toa Payoh, from my childhood to now, Oasis is still the same great tasting porridge after all these years. Yes, prices have gone up, some items like dou miao removed from menu, but the perennial favourites are still there. The cockles are smaller than before though but this is happening every where.

    But still grateful for a bowl of warm porridge on a cold day. Will continue to support as long as they are operating and taste remains unchanged.

    This is one of my favourite restaurants since I was a child, when they were located in Kallang. Recently, they have changed their main chef and menu, with the food quality improving tremendously. I will recommend the Oasis tofu, braised pork, cockles (sea hum), Chinese spinach with three eggs, which will go well with the porridge. Try out the other dishes if you are there for a feast too.

    Usually, the restaurant will crowded on weekend nights. So for those who are driving and if the carpark is full, you can consider parking at the HDB Hub carpark, or the swimming pool carpark (located next to Toa Payoh Park).

    Previously located next to the two stadiums in Kallang, they have since shifted to a circular building in Toa Payoh Gardens, opposite the HDB Hub.
    It’s a nice alternative to the more common Teochew Porridge. What sets it apart is their porridge, served in a small heat retaining tub, is cooked with sweet potatoes. It’s free flow, so you can ask for as many refills as you want.
    My favourite dishes here include the steam kampung chicken, chai poh egg, si chuan vegetable with pork, salted fish bean sprouts, and chai poh tofu. The braised duck, which seems to be popular, is slightly gamey for my taste, but otherwise it was not bad.
    I usually go in the evening, so most times it gets too dark to see much of the garden, but if you go earlier, you can enjoy the view of the pond while dining there.
    They currently have a promotion where you receive a voucher of 10% of your bill. The best thing is that the vouchers don’t expire, so remember to keep it in your wallet for the next visit.

    Perhaps it’s the start of a new year but I was hit by a wave of nostalgia and thought of Oasis Taiwan Porridge, a Chinese restaurant we used to frequent very regularly for suppers about two decades ago. This was during the time when it was located in Kallang – also in a round building and surrounded by water, just like it is now at Toa Payoh Gardens (and if you know what I’m talking about, I guess we’re about the same age ).
    Since there were just us two yesterday, I could only order most of our old favourites: Stirfried Szechuan Vegetable with Pork, Chye Por Omelette, Cold Silken Tofu in Soya Sauce with Century Egg and Pork Floss, Stirfried Beansprouts with Salted Fish, and Braised Pork.
    The highlight for me though, has always been their porridge which is cooked to the perfect consistency with sweet potato. And because it is served in a thermos container wheeled over on a trolley which stays by your table, it is still nice and warm when you help yourself to more later.
    Aside from the rather dry braised pork we encountered yesterday, the rest of the dishes were fine. Flavours tasted as old-school and robust as I recall. The food was still on the oily side (it’s like they never got the government’s memo to go healthier ) but it’s exactly why the clean-tasting porridge paired well with them I guess.

    After onsite church service, my hubby suggested to come here with my daughter and her boyfriend.

    We ordered 4 dishes with sweet potato porridge and a pot of hot chrysanthenum tea.
    I must say that the chrysanthenum tea was like as if it has been sieved so many times..it’s literally bland.
    I could not even smell the chrysanthenum at all.
    I really hope they could improve on the quality of their tea please.
    Overall, the cost of the lunch was $71.45.
    The only advantage is that it is not so crowded and we enjoyed the nice greenery around the restaurant and the airconditioning at 12 plus in a hot afternoon.

    Have been eating this with my family for over 2 decades! Because they have expanded their menu since before, what you order may / may not be something they are really good at!

    Call us boring but we always go back to these same few dishes and they’ve not failed us.

    The chai poh egg, like many other reviews, this goes really well with the sweet potato porridge, although it is a bit too oily sometimes.

    Claypot tofu, it is braised long enough that the gravy seeps deep into the tofu and the ingredients that follows making this a superb dish. Really is one of the must order!

    Service is okay, but I feel that sometimes after working in the same environment for too long, staff may become complacent so refresher course to address service should be provided to these waiters and waitresses who have been with the company for over 2 decades.

    To get customers to spend more, the waitresses will always ask you to order seafood, fish followed by poultry. Sometimes they may be a bit too pushy and appear unhappy if we reject all their introduction, and I’m sure this gesture may eventually rub some customers off the wrong way.
