"Check your assumptions at the door and be wowed by this uber-chic entertainment lifestyle concept. Housed in the NCO club, a refurbished heritage venue frequented by officers in the post-war era, it features a colourful, colonial design. Dim sum at lunch deserves special mention. Also try the four-treasure soup, wok-fried crispy duck, and black bean-aubergine-tofu claypot. There is a nightly DJ as well as a live band on Friday and Saturday nights." - Michelin Inspector

"A restaurant consulted by Alan Yau, known for its assortment of dim sum and an elegant dining atmosphere. It reflects Yau's influence in breaking the glass ceiling on Chinese cuisine in the West." - Rachel Tan

"Swanky Cantonese restaurant Madame Fan by famed restaurateur Alan Yau has just launched its own bar helmed by award-winning mixologist Davide Boncimino, who wants to create a cocktail program that’s “good enough to eat"—and by that he means meticulously crafted cocktails that fuse ingredients and techniques usually reserved for restaurant kitchens. These include housemade culinary-inspired ingredients such as the finest selection of Tie Guan Yin tea, milk-washed vodka and savory shiso vermouth, as well as special garnishes cooked up by the kitchen, such as the amber honeycomb that accompanies the "Tián Mì Mì" cocktail with black peppercorn cordial and mandarin fruit skin. For all the thought and work that go into the cocktails, the signature drinks are very approachable: the "(Not) Classic PBJ" features Chinese kumquats that have been caramelized into a liqueur with a peanut butter fat-washed Glenfiddich 15 whisky, while the "Velveteen" infuses a rich mix of Plantation Pineapple Rum with salted coconut infusion and house-made gula melaka ice cream." - Rachel Tan

"Madame Fan is set to open at the newly-refurbished NCO Club in Beach Road on April 23. The restaurant is the brainchild of famed London-based restauranteur Alan Yau. The Look: The 467-square-metre space feels like stepping into an ornately-adorned mansion, with a classy main dining room that is a throwback to dinner clubs in the post-war era. The Food: The menu is decidedly Chinese, incorporating a mix of 'what goes on in a dinner party at Alan Yau’s home'. Helming the kitchen is chef de cuisine Mike Tan. Dim Sum items include the usual char siew bao and siew mai, and the Mooli Puff. Other dishes include hand-cut Taiwan noodles studded with wind-dried pork and la la clams, and wonton noodles served with lobster, ginger and spring onions. One of the desserts is a tart raspberry sabayon. Expect to pay about $80 to $120 per person." - Kenneth Goh

Had family reunion lunch here. Food is served in small portions, but enough to taste its quality. Staff were attentive and helpful. Food was flavourful. On the expensive side, though.

21 Jan 2025. This was our second visit to Madame Fan for a Chinese New Year corporate lunch. While we opted for a more affordable set lunch this year, the service was unacceptably slow. Our lunch reservation started at 11:45 AM, and here's how the dishes were served: 12:00 PM: Yusheng was served along with 2 plates of in-house bak kwa. 12:30 PM: Sea cucumber almond chicken soup (a 30-minute wait after Yusheng). There's no chicken. 12:45 PM: Shallow Fried Soon Hock. (Trust me, zi char soon hock taste better) 1:07 PM: Australian ribeye beef cubes. 5 cubes only(nearly a 20-minute wait for the third dish). 1:23 PM: Stir Fried Asparagus (by this point, the delays were frustrating). 1:38 PM: Crab roe Inaniwa Udon and dessert were served together. Honestly, for a reputable restaurant, this is disappointing. On a weekday, one would expect a well-managed establishment to allocate sufficient staff or have contingency plans for any shortfalls. It appeared that the kitchen was the main cause of these delays. We weren't the only corporate group dining that day, and it was evident that all tables were facing significant delays. That said, I want to applaud Miss Sammy and Miss Alora for their efforts to manage a situation that was clearly beyond their control. While they couldn’t speed up the kitchen, they provided complimentary champagne + nuts in between for our group of 24 as a gesture of goodwill and were sincerely apologetic about the delays. Despite the service issues, the food quality was generally good but portion was alittle too pathetic. A couple of dishes lacked flavor to the point that we had to rely on chili padi and soy sauce for enhancement. On the positive side, all staff were attentive to drink refills and promptly cleared finished cutlery, which I appreciated. Moving forward, I hope Madame Fan improves its service management. The experience we had today left much to be desired, and unfortunately, this will be my last visit.

Service size was small but food was delicious. Highlights were the wasabi prawns, Peking duck rolls, scallops with lotus roots and bamboo shoots and lobster with noodles. The fry and batter for the sweet and sour pork was one of the best I’ve had. Service was not as attentive as expected and it was hard to get the server’s attention. Tea was refilled and cutlery was changed promptly though. Lighting was dim and uneven. May not be conducive for conversation for larger groups.

This review is based on a week night visit while sampling the Indulge set menu. The decor of this restaurant is low key modern elegance. Dark tones that hints at classic rosewood furniture and Chinese restaurants of old. Tables are well spaced and everyone speaks in low tones. The only slight discordant note is the flat white celling. It is harmless but it can feel a little office-esque. Service is great. Everything moves like a well oiled machine. Attentive without being intrusive. Food is very good. It is probably not as excessive as some other set menus (costing more). The value proposition is decent. However, there is still enough high-end ingredients to signify an elevated dining experience. I don't think there is an absolute highlight but everything fits well together so we were happy with the meal as a whole. Another point in its favour is the meal left us satisfied but still being able to walk without waddling like a stuffed goose. That is a fine balancing act. All in all, it was a very pleasant experience. The price doesn't push it completely into the "special occasions only" category.

Enjoyable experience, especially the starter ~ Love the cherry tomato 🍅 guava it is well made!! We didn’t order set menu, but the Ala carte menu has good smoked chicken, duck, ice cream it is just nice size.

Especially Chef Chee yit and Joy also Rachel! ~The value of food is reasonable using high-end ingredients 🧡 it!

Not the first time here but still got abit lost finding the right lift. Food was superb; first time trying the dinner menu. Dishes were really pricey but the quality made up for the price! Highly recommend the Peking roast duck - sauce + skin + meat and veg went really well together and the ribs (can’t remember the exact name) but it was fall off the bone tender and smoky! Lotus root dish with scallop and lobster noodles were nice but not must orders.

I came by for the Lunar New Year Dim Sum Drink Sum. The food was pretty good, although people have also mentioned that the portions are small. I didn't mind that the portions are small since it's free flow and you can order multiple portions, other than the sea cucumber and steamed boston lobster. We started with the signature yusheng, but it was hard to find the bluefin tuna in the yusheng. This was pretty tasty, with the crispy seaweed adding umami to the dish. Other highlights that I would recommend getting: sesame prawn toast (pretty thick layer of prawn paste), xiao long bao (the soup has a sweetness to it), ume wasabi prawn, jasmine tea smoked ribs (very fragrant and meat is tender). I wouldn't recommend: crispy duck roll (meat is pretty dry, eat with chill sauce for an easier time chewing). I also want to say a big thank you to Allen, whose service was very attentive. Thank you for bringing along a plate of CNY snacks to accompany the birthday cake.

Serves artisanal dim sum. They also offer dim sum buffet lunch on wkends and public hols for $98++. Decor has an atas western noir vibe. It was my first time there and when i walked in i noticed a surprisingly number of guai lous dining in the restaurant. I was wondering are westerners that into dim sum? The menu is not all dim sum though. They also serve chinese dishes like sweet sour pork, roasted duck with plum sauce, abalone with sea cucumber, beef horfun and even australian striploin. Even though its buffet is near impossible to finish everything on the menu unless ur Zermatt. I have to say everything on the menu is decent. I had a tough choice to decide which was my fav. Do come and give their buffet a try!
