Satay by the Bay

Nice food court if you want to fuel up before the garden, with goodies like dumplings, satay, and curries. Simply order and the place you like and wait for the buzzer to do its thing. Reasonable prices for the location, and the taste was on the positive side. There’s also a bar if you’re feeling like a beer or two! 🍻

The least tasty "Fried Rice with Pineapple" dish I had in my life, you even taste the pineapple and they all overall face was very much missing from the dish. And they are very stingy with the chili and sauce. You have to beg to get some chili and sauce. But it's very well decorated and very nice atmosphere, if you're not a connoisseur you might enjoy it.

This is by far the biggest tourist trap experience I have had for the past 2 months in Singapore. Mango sticky rice - S$10 Freshly squeezed juice was actually priced at the acceptable price of S$3.5. However, once you asked them to omit ice cubes I was told that this costs 1/3 more. When I asked NOT to fill up the cup with juice (hence no extra juice without extra payment, but also no ice as this is diluting the otherwise nice taste of freshly squeezed juice) I was told - impossible. What an upsell technique/scam. Since I have Singaporean friends I figured out there is no consumer rights agency and 0 protection for the customers in Singapore. Ever heard of a place which cannot avoid adding ice unless you pay extra? Even if you suggest letting go of a chunk of the freshly squeezed juice so the seller won’t feel as taken advantage of. What a nonsense. And no agency or organization to complain to. Simply avoid buying juice from here - and anywhere else in Singapore. In case you like ice - I hope you will like diluted freshly squeezed juice. P.S. the cashier was about to say a bad word to me (look through the pictures to see the face), however a colleague of his (from the Philippines) posed as a manager of the place (note, NO managers on the floor in this food court) and tried to apologize and try to make the things sound right (which they don’t as customer has no rights at this court). Please avoid this food court. The prices of the food items sounded exaggerated and found out from other employees of the Gardens by the Bay that none of them ever eats there due to bad quality and exaggerated prices.

Within the Marina Bay and Gardens by the bay area, serves satay as per the name, with loads of other food options. The vibe is that of a food court, and you can grab different cuisines from different stalls and and grab a seat and enjoy. It is a great place to rest your laurels after walking up and down Check it out when planning your time around the Marina Bay and Gardens by the bay.

City Satay is one out a few satay spots here in satay by the bay. I took a while to research which one i should get but just ended up taking the chance with this one as it was right in front of me. as I go up to order for myself, i'm greeted with a dire attitude. usually i don't really care about service if they're known for really good food but she was blunt and unwelcoming, which made me want to cancel my order but i wanted to see if it was good. satay by the bay and Lau Pa Sat are definitely just tourist traps and wouldn't recommend it. just google your local food/hawker centre and go there. food is way better and cheaper, plus you're supporting the local business that don't get that much clout. as for the food, i ordered 10p which you're only allowed to choose 2 types of meat in that 10, it's not stated but she will correct you. I got the chicken and mutton plus 2 rices on the side. the meats are flavourful, small but tender, the satay sauce is underwhelming and the rice is cold and almost kinda crumbly and dry. they precooked a lot of their skewers and heated them up upon ordering, which is disappointing. literally just watched the server cough disgustingly multiple times into her hands too. if you're in the area, sure, eat here but if you're not, don't bother going out of your way to get here. there are so many other hawkers that outshine this place. satay by the bay is not a bad place, it's just not that great for how many good reviews it has. you'll get better food, service and prices elsewhere.

Satay by the Bay is the dining place at Gardens by the Bay with hawker centre concept. It is spacious, clean, and comfortable. It is an open air concept dining place. Even though it is non air conditioned, the weather circulation was good. There are numerous of seats available for customers to dine in. It is located at the southern part of Gardens by the Bay. Satay by the Bay is nearby, within 5 minutes walk from Gardens by the Bay MRT station of Thomson East Coast Line (TEL). No entrance fee for diners to access this area. Satay by the Bay offers numerous choices of menu from the grill (satay and chicken wing), Asian till Western cuisines. Local foods can be found here as well. Pricing was moderate. Payment could be made by cash and electronic modes at each stall. As it is a hawker centre, customers need to self serve includes clear the table after dining.

Just popped in for an ice cream which was a fair price and had a great coconut taste. The tables and surroundings were very clean. It was very quiet when we visited so only rated a 4* for atmosphere.

If you are heading to Gardens by the Bay, a good place to eat is the Satay by the Bay. Here you can sample various cuisines from Asia. It’s an open air dinning food court though it is covered. You will have to find a place to sit first before you order. Otherwise, you may not have a table to eat on as the place is busy during lunch and dinner time. Off hours may be less busy. We had satay chicken and pork, Hainanese chicken rice, shrimp omelette rice, crispy baby squid and grilled prawns. The prices of all except the prawn is reasonable. The prawn was market rate and I remember paying 10 SGD per piece. We had 4 pieces. So check the price and ask before ordering. Overall ambiance is that of a food market.

We came here to grab a quick lunch before heading to the Flower Dome. The Satay was good but small pieces per skewer. Sauce was good. Chicken wings were good too. Reasonable price as well. $9.00 for 10 skewers. $2.00 per wing.

One of the newer food halls that recently went under renovations in 2023. Looks very clean and modern looking compared to the other hawker centers in Singapore. Conveniently located by Gardens By The Bay near the Metro stop, makes this a nice pit stop for food before continuing on your site seeing adventure. Stall 26 - Marina Bar & Bistro If you want a nice cold beer, this is the stall to get it. Stall 9 - Makan by the Bay Ordered the Seafood Hor Fun Goreng (SG$8). This is a flat noodle dish with egg gravy on top, although the photos don't depict it with the egg gravy. Overall it was good. Stall C1 - City Satay Skewers galore. Got the satay combo set A (SG$19) which came with 12 satay, 2 prawn, 2 pork belly, and 1 rice. For the satay, you can only choose 3 different kinds as the minimum for one is 4. You can choose between pork, chicken, mutton, beef, and otah. The best ones was mutton. The person taking the order was a bit rude.

Hawker center inside Gardens by the Bay. There are few stalls that offer different food and drinks. The options may be limited but decent enough. Prices were reasonable. Portion sizes were on the smaller side but it was a great to try different things. My family and I ordered different dishes that filled the table. There were 4 of us. Most food was just ok but we did manage to finish everything. The crab dish was based on market price so that was the most expensive dish. Overall, it was a good meal.

Freshly grilled satay was great and pohpiah was solid, but the oyster omelette was not the expected singapore kind and noodles were somewhat expensive.

After walking around Gardens by the Bay, my brother and I wanted to visit a hawker centre to pick up some lunch. We planned on taking the MRT to Chinatown but decided last minute to try Satay by the Bay. It's a very clean hawker centre with lots of options. We settled on the 20 satay combo (half chicken, half beef) from Geylang Serai Satay and Carrot Cake from Stall 18. Everything was delicious and quite reasonably priced. It's definitely a bit more than other hawker centres, but nothing crazy. This is a great stop for lunch when visiting Gardens by the Bay!

If you ever stop by at this place make sure to try the Crispy Chicken at Makan stall. It's delicious! Ask for Sonny, he's the owner.

Excellent variety and high quality Hawker Center. Satay is wonderful. Many other extraordinary specialties!

One of the few spots to eat when you search restaurants in Garden by the Bay, my partner and I came here between touring the domes. There are many different hawker stalls here and benches, though many were closed around 11am, when we were there. We settled on City Satay where it was about $12 USD for 10 meat skewers and 2 shrimp skewers. The chicken was very tasty especially b/c we were so hungry having walked the Gardens by the Bay, though definitely overpriced for Singapore and compared to what you can get north of Gardens. The satay sauce though was great, but then again I am a sucker for peanut sauce...I also would have liked if we could mix and match, but the folks there said I couldn't, so I just went with chicken. Despite the limited selection, the convenience and comparable prices to fancier restaurants in the area make it a great stop to go to when you're around Gardens by the Bay!

Mmm...I have mixed feelings about the hawker stands offered at this pavilion. The prices are pretty reasonable especially considering you're at Gardens by the Bay, but I didn't quite find what I was looking for despite all the selection. We wound up getting a plate of fried rice which was good- not great, but fine, but what I really wanted was a refreshing smoothie. There was definitely a lack of adequate beverage selections at this pavilion, and I did find a place that had a guava smoothie. It was like sludge and the most unappetizing smoothie I've ever had. I don't know what other ingredients were in it, but I begrudgingly drank it because I was that desperate for something that would go down easy. I will never forget this awful smoothie. I still cannot believe I drank it all. I kept thinking I could get used to the taste, but I never did. Because there is so much I didn't get around to trying, I figure there are better dishes around the pavilion, but we eventually went to another venue about an hour and a half later to get different food to make up for what lacked in this visit.

There are so many of them. You picked the best one or go with the price. A $20 SGD will get you a lot of sticks in different type of meat. I saw family just to come here to have full meal with over 100+ sticks. Make sure you get a cold beer to o with the satay. You can sit anywhere (I perfect inside with fan) and secure you spot before it get crowded. It was a great idea to visit Garden by the bay earlier to enjoy this meal. The location is roomy and easy to find. If you take a MRT (TE line), and you will run into this place before the main buildings. They accept both cash and card.

After a tip from our Grab driver, we went to Satay at the Bay for a quick dinner before enjoying the Garden by the Bay evening. The satay skewers with peanut sauce were just right. Chicken and pork belly were full of flavor. All were very good. Only one establishment served beer - which was fine. All cold. We arrived around 5:30 and it was fairly empty. By 7:00, you could not find a table. Fun place to be a little adventurous.

This is a fun and casual location. Great for lunch or dinner. Several food stalls with different options to choose from. The is an outdoor location that is covered. The service is efficient and the employees are helpful if you can't decide what to get. Love coming here when we are in the area!

A very nice hawker near Gardens By The Bay that's a good option if your food cravings are hitting hard! Decent amount of options for food and I did notice that they do have a lot of seafood options on top of all the typical hawker food. But since it is called "Satay By The Bay" you have to try the satay! City Satay is one of the first stalls you'll see and smell and you can't go wrong with this one. Cheap and great quality satays! The menu shows various set options and a set of 20 is perfect for two people to share. Do note you can mix and match your meat options. I recommend their chicken satay: flavorful, very tender, grilled to perfection, and goes very well with their sauce! Serving sizes are a tad small but the flavor of the satay and the quantity makes that irrelevant. They do provide a lot of the yummy sauce, always a plus! Overall, a convenient location for a hawker with good options. A must-visit if you're craving satay!

We ate dinner here prior to seeing the light show at the Super Grove trees. As the name implies, this hawker center sells satay. But, it also sells other items such like seafood and drinks. Please bring mosquito repellent here, or you will certainly be eaten alive. Thank goodness we were prepared. Anyway, back to the satay. Here, there are two main satay food stalls competing for customers. Of course we tried both stalls to see which one we liked. Now, we didn't get the names of these stalls. But, we know for certain that we enjoyed the satay stall further away from the dining tables. We tried both beef and mutton satays. However, we enjoyed the mutton satays best. They were more flavorful and aromatic than the beef satays. Also, the peanut sauce from the further away satay stall tasted better too. We were pretty hungry, and we ate God only knows how many satay sticks. It was really hard to stop. Lol. Come here and check them out. Sample both satay food stalls and see which one you prefer. Enjoy!

This place is located near the Marina Bay Gardens and I ended up eating here a couple times. The place is much livelier at night as during the day it was pretty empty and hard to flag down the people who run each of the stalls. At night there is a man and woman yelling "satay satay satay" for the satay stall and I ended up getting the satay from there. Be aware that there is quite a wait for them to actually finish making the satay, as they grill it as you order it, so if you're in a rush I wouldn't recommend this place. The satay itself ended up being just average. I've had much better satay elsewhere, and the sauce was just so-so. It tastes like if you just ordered satay from a restaurant that specializes in something else, where the main focus isn't the satay. Still the dish was cooked fresh and I guess I can't complain. I also had the hokkien mee (noodles and shrimp) from another stall, and that was pretty bad I wouldn't recommend that. Overall a good selection of food, but none of it looked or tasted that great.

For my birthday in Singapore some friends an family decided on going to the Satay Club aka Satay By The Bay. All of us (party of 8) met up at about 7:30 pm and it was incredibly busy as it was a Saturday night. Recommend taking a cab or uber as parking was limited. After navigating the crowd, my god sister ordered a whole bunch of food which included sambal kangkong, crispy fried baby squid, steam cockles, chili crab, lots of satay and sautéed bok choy. Damn it was all good. Service was a little slow as it was a busy night. I recommend first timers to ask the servers how to eat some of the dishes if you are not sure. After dinner we moved to the desert stall where everyone picked their own desert. I had an iced jelly with lunch longan and canned fruit. It was good but a little too sweet. When dinner lasts 3 hours, you know it was a good time had by all.

With so many food courts and hawker stalls in Singapore, it's not surprising that there's one in the Garden by the Bay. While Satay By The Bay is not the best or biggest food court, it still offers some terrific good eats. I came here late Saturday morning. Most of the stalls did not open until 11:30 am. After reading some other yelp reviews, I tried the BBQ Wings stall and ordered the three wing combo. The wings are perfectly grilled over open charcoal. The chicken meat literally fell off the bones. The jasmine rice was moist, fragrant, and complemented the wings. Following the wings, I tried an egg and onion briyani from the briyani stand. The breading was good - soft, fluffy and the onion added a kick to the light flavoring. If you are an egg lover - like me - the briyani probably could have used two eggs to give it a bit more omelette/egg flavor. Satay By The Bay has lots of other foodie options, including fresh seafood offerings. There are lots of Chinese cuisine stalls (e.g dumplings, stir fry, and noodles) and most definitely several satay stalls - hence the name Satay By The Bay. There is also a full bar and juice bar that also offers fresh cut fruit. Lastly, Satay By the Bay has a nice garden surrounding, and is worth visiting if you don't want McD while you are at the Garden By The Bay.

Ambience Super Smokey, good location cause it's near all the touristy stuff. Variety of stores and many tables. Food A lot pricier than other Hawker places. Kabobs we got were pretty small and it felt like we didn't even eat much at all lol. $10 for 15 small kabobs!

There are many food stalls to choose from so this a good place to go when you get hungry. They have really good satay but the people working there have a bit of an attitude. My husband and I were try to choose which Satay stall to order from and just because we were taking awhile, the workers from both satay stalls were giving us dirty looks. It's not our fault that they both were right next to each other. Another stall that tried was Huat Huat BBQ chicken wings and that was one the best meals that we had that day, the chicken was really good and the staff was friendly as well.

I was surprised by the negative reviews. A guess there was a lot of close minded travelers. We went to a satay place that was super friendly and very reasonably priced. The other food stands had a variety of options and I was pleasantly surprised at the value. Everything looked very clean. I was kind of saddened that the weather was so crappy because I think a lot of the vendors stayed home. Half of the little shops were not open when we went.

Satay by the Bay was our first Food Hawker experience in Singapore. It was a fun and yummy adventure. We had 16 people in our group. Each went to explore their own food stalls so we were able to share and sample much variety of food. Chili Crab - It was messy, and spicy. Take your time and eat with rice. Fish head stew- It does not sound so good but there is a lot of meat surrounding the head. Fried fish cakes - pick out the stuff you want then they deep fried them upon ordering. Popiah spring roll - super thin crepe wrapped crunchy vegetables like carrots, peanuts, jicama, turnip, bean curd. The bomb if you like veggies. Chicken wings - juicy on the inside, crispy on the outside, it was good but not mind blowing. Satay sticks - honestly, the different meats all tasted about the same to me since they have the same sauce. Cane juice and coconut juice- fresh from the source, happy face! They have open sink with soap for people to wash hand.

I walk ALL OVER Singapore trying to find this place and i don't regret a single minute of it. This was the ultimate hawker stand food. For about 50usd/each my friend and I ate like kings. It was my first time eating bbq stingray and it was....interesting. The place is really hidden away so its a bit of a hike to get it but you won't regret a single minute of it. Get the soft shell crab too, its one of the best things they have. Also you have to get the beer, can't eat Spivey hawker food without beer.

Lots of satay places to choose from plus some other foods as well. We just shared some satay. We had beef, chicken, pork and shrimp. All were tasty and it came with a peanut sauce which was tasty. We also had some tiger beer here as well. Prices are going to be a bit more expensive since you're near gardens by the bay but it was still good. I would recommend a stop here.

Although definitely more expensive than regular hawker centers, this is a good option for a meal when you are out exploring Gardens by the Bay. I got a satay combo with delicious peanut sauce that filled me up on a super hot and tiring day. Lots of fresh air since it's outdoors but covered for the rain. I'd only recommend going for the location since there are much better hawkers around Singapore.

Not the most authentic of hawker centers in Singapore, Satay by the Bay aims to give those visiting Gardens by the Bay a taste of the traditional fare in a slightly more elegant outdoor setting. It's clean, of course, with the standard hygiene ratings prominently displayed in each stall. And there's variety, from Indian to Malay to Turkish to Chinese to Singapore satay. The six of us ordered a handful of dishes from different stalls to share: roti prata and mee goreng; chicken, lamb and beef satay with spicy peanut sauce and cucumbers (it's a must); fried rice and sweet barbecued baby squid (this one was interesting. They were as crispy as freshly minted potato chips); chicken wings and black pepper beef; and honeydew and watermelon juice from the drinks stall. The flavors were all there and it was a great introduction to the variety of tastes that Singapore has to offer for my friend, a first-time visitor, but I probably wouldn't go back. I've had better dishes elsewhere in the city (even at touristy places such as Lau Pa Sat). That said, the seafood mee goreng, a long-time favorite of mine, was delicious. The bathrooms are outdoors and clean, too. Perfect for washing the satay sauce off your hands before taking a stroll about the marina.

If you go to Singapore and really want authentic food head to Satay by the Bay!!!!! Right next to the famous super tree grove and marina bay sands, Satay by the bay is like a higher end hawker centre that serves delicious, flavourful Singaporean food!!!!! There are multiple stalls that serve various different types of foods!!!! You definitely need to try the satay there!!!! The satay there is so so delicious and the sauce goes so well with the chicken, pork, beef and shrimp skewers!!!! You also need to try the barbecue chicken wings which are so smoky and full of flavour!!!! You can even try unique foods, like stingray and the hundred year old eggs, or classic Singaporean desserts or juices, such as chendol or Bandung!!!! You definitely need to visit this place!!!!! You can even do some sightseeing while you are there!!!!

We came to try the satay since we were in the area, the place felt like an outdoor food court with bright flashing lights that seemed to be vying for your undivided attention. Since it was open air foodcourt,it was humid and very little breeze to comfort you. WE decided on the first satay shop we saw where the lady was waving a laminated menu in front of us.The combo of assorted satay/ BBQ were very tasty.

Smokey Goodness by the Bay Satay by the Bay, one of our favorite places to dine in Singapore. Not just a modern food court, Satay by the Bay brings back some of the old charm of the old Satay Club. Maybe it's the outdoor setting with its wooden stools and low tables or Maybe it's the hint of salt water coming from the reservoir. Which ever it is, it's certainly made Satay by the Bay one of our favourite food joints. While we've yet to try everything here, there are some notable stalls we would and wouldn't recommend. Sri Geylang Sate Definitely our favourite stall of the 6 (or 8?) stalls available here. I suppose Satay is quite selective. We love this store because the meats are well marinated and very fragrant. The chicken is is juicy, mutton too. Beef, a little of the dry side but still very very tasty. City Satay is probably the most popular of the Chinese owned satay stalls. Maybe it's the variety or the fact that they're a well know brand but personally, I feel that he sauce is a little synthetic and factory made. Boon Tat Barbecue Seafood Definitely our favourite Tze Char stall here. They have a good variety of dishes but we personally enjoy the BBQ stingray here. Unlike other BBQ stingrays, the chilli used here is more dry Belachan than it is Sambal. It's salty, flavorful and goes very well with the stingray. Another favourite is their Special Fried Chicken wings. Refusing to say what the marinade or batter really is, there is a hint of fermented prawn past. The chicken is nice and crispy and very juicy (except for our last visit where it was a little over cooked). Maybe they aren't used to the crowds thanks to Gardens by the Bay's Christmas Carnival. Another notable mention is Wholly Crab. Opened by local celebrity Felicia Chin, the crab in a bag looks absolutely delightful. Though we haven't tried it personally, the number of people happily digging in and licking their fingers is enough to get my attention and we're going to try it next time! Overall, we love this place. Is it touristy? A little but there's enough good food here to keep the locals coming back. Some items may be on the slightly pricier side as compared to our regular food court or food centre stalls but, it's still worth the walk and definitely worth the price. Satay Party anyone?

Best place to eat satay satay. Smokey surrounding but that belongs to this kind of foodspot. Cheap cheap but great taste and Flip flop comfortable atmosphere.

BEST satay in Singapore according to my relatives and.. yes it was indeed good. A short walk from Gardens by the Bay this place is filled with wonderful and delicious satay and other typical Singaporean foods. It's a great place to unwind after seeing all of the attractions around MBS. Yes, it's filled with tourist but what do you expect being so close to Gardens by the Bay? This shouldn't deter you from coming and trying the most wonderful satay ever though.

This is an OK place by Gardens by the bay for a quick bite to eat. Satay, chili crab, stingray, Indian food, and even some eastern Mediterranean food, there is a good variety here, however it is a little overpriced.

The place has loads of variety, and very tasty food that can appeal to any taste or dietary requirement. It has more than just satay, there's crabs, lobsters, chicken, rice, pot food, Turkish food and pretty much anything. The satay is nutty and spicy, and the chicken is slightly tough, but delicious, and the chips from the Mariana Bar were crunchy and tasty. Service is a bit slow, but it's a good place to eat if you're willing to wait.

Lots of potential if the place really opens up and get the right publicity and good food. Right now, there is only two satay stalls, one BBQ seafood stall, one BBQ chicken wings and the drinks stall. There are signs on the other empty stalls on opening dates. The chicken wings were great. Crispy skin, nicely seasoned. The satays were a little too sweet for my liking, the BBQ stingray were so-so. Pricing were a little high (wings go for $1.40 each), guess that is partly for the location. It is located right between Gardens by the Bay and the barrage. They actually have their own car park that gets you right to the doorsteps. But we realized later that the barrage is just a nice walk away along the reservoir, and free parking!

City Satay - 1 star Mutton and beef satay ($0.70 per stick) Too fatty and I couldn't even tell the difference between the mutton and the beef. The sticky rice (ketupat) was also soggy. They also advertised their pineapple sauce but said it wasn't ready... it's the nearest stall so it was popular but not worth it! Seems like there's a stall with blue plates that looks good. Popiah ($2.50) - 2 stars A bit tasteless. Coconut ($4) - 4 stars Sweet with some soft flesh.

Best satay in town. Grilled on charcoal - fresh and tasty. Great place to enjoy a wonderful evening. Choose your favourite meat . Beef, chicken, goat or something else. Up to you!

The Marina Bay Sands/Gardens by the Area area is fairly expensive food-wise. However, Satay by the Bay and the food center area around it is probably your most affordable area. There's plenty of selection and the food that I had (except for the American fare) looks, smells and tastes pretty good. It's all under-cover outdoor seating with fans dispersed evenly around the eating area. Be wary of random bird droppings as birds do fly through here freely. Compared to other food centers or or food courts, this place is a dollar or so more expensive, but it will be your cheapest option on a day or evening at Gardens by the Bay.

Hawker center near the Gardens by The Bay. Several Satay stalls. But decided on some pratas. Plain & Sandine with curry dip. Both were delicious. Don't forget to get some chendol & ais kachang on the stall right around the corner from Indian food.

Black & White Delight We ordered bbq sotong and bbq baby octopus from this stall. Omg, it was so good. I will definitely come back again for more!

Did you know you can eat stingray?! I didn't but once I saw you could I had to try it. It was delicious but be careful about bones. The satay was as good as grilled meat can be..which of course is amazing. Multiple stalls to choose from. My impression which could be wrong is that I was getting some street food without the street food risk because it was at the back of gardens by the bay. It was a mix of locals and tourists which also seems like a positive sign. The people were very friendly and the whole area was very clean overall. If you're at gardens of the bat and don't require 5 star ambiance you have to go eat some meat on a stick, at the very least.

It's a touristy place, sure, but not a bad way to get your satay fix. There are two rows of satay stalls - the Malay vendors & Chinese vendors. Get satay from both! On the Malay side, Satay Power is very good. They have a very thick style peanut sauce, tasty and quite power. Chicken wings are super yummy! And best of all, good service and very nice staff. On the Chinese side, you can get... pork belly satay! City Satay did the job though I wasn't a fan of their weaker and more watery peanut sauce.

3 stars for its scenic location. 1 star for its average quality food. Tried their satay, fried beehoon, BBQ stingray, BBQ cuttlefish, and chicken wings. The quality is so so and kind of pricey. It is not crowded on weekday. For those who don't drive, there is a free shuttle that loops from marina bay mrt to garden by the bay and then into satay by the bay. As this place is still new, many locals including cab drivers do not know its existence. It is located in between garden by the bay and marina barrage. It is hidden behind a parking lots

This food court is the saddest food court I have ever come across in my 15 years in Singapore. The standards are...(wait there are none), sadly to say I'm getting frustrated just writing this post and thinking about the place. My family and I decided to go because there was some write up about it on the ST today, and to think that Tony Bourdain wants to bring this concept to Manhattan? Sure, just as long as its not a replica of it. The one thing I can never get with Singapore and its developments are that they are always half-assing things. If you've been there and seen the sad satay stalls perched on the exterior i think you know what I'm talking about. They are not even created as permanent stalls, but makeshifts, as if there was some food show and they just came to set up. This is your namesake for crying out loud! It's a shame... a total shame. Not to mention that only a handful of stalls were open and the options were bbq seafood, bbq seafood, 5 satay stalls, one turkish place and steamboat. Food was...let's just say I would have been a lot happier grabbing a mickey d's takeout. We ordered a chicken kebab, (bland) bread was good though, hommous was one-note, baba ghanoush went sour. We tried the bbq seafood (next to the popiah stall) everything tasted the same...and sadly they cook just to cook, no thought in to it, just as long as it was edible. I don't know what to say GBTB, clean up your act a little, you spent so much money on your gardens and you place this eye-sore in the corner...of which your little wooden plank signage was horrible at directing us. Will I ever come back? I think the answer is clear. That is unless they bring in better stalls, and spiff up the place.

I think most of the food not really nice.. BBQ service super poor.. Ordered a stingray n was extreme not fresh at all.. Must try bbq chicken from the Muslim satay stall next to geylang seri 10x much better then huat huat !! Indian food is good as well . Tried the crayfish porridge from the seafood soup stall and didn't expect that it turn out super tasty.. Never had it anywhere else like that...Must try or regret ..!! My friend ordered prawn mee.. Gosh .. It's so so normal..

Had satay and tried two different satay stalls; 1) Black and White 2) Sri Geylang. We like the Black and White better, the satay is not so sweet and the meat is not so fatty. Black and white has BBQ Mushroom which turned out to be very good too. If you like to try Satay Mutton, my vote is for Black and White.

Looking for satay for lunch as my hubby will be flying off back to Hong Kong tonight....no luck at China Town Food Street nor Lau Pa Sat....Whatsapp for rescue and a friend suggested Satay by the Bay...And this is the place to go! Bonfire satay at a food court by the river, how nice! The sugar cane juice is a freshly squeezed one which goes well with the satay! Nice nice!

This place is pretty cool. Walking from the Gardens and financial district along the river, Satay by the Bay pops up from seemingly nowhere. Its hot. Its crowded. Its smokey because satay and outside. But oh man, its delicious. and cheap. Try the first stall on the left hand side; we ordered shrimp, beef and chicken. You can buy a la carte or by 'groupings'. We also had chili crab, soups and young coconut juice. All that food, stuffed to the gils, for about 50 SG$ for 3 hungry ladies. The next time I'm in Singapore, I'll go back for sure :)

Fun place to go if you are in the area. We went to Sir Geylang Sate and it was pretty good. Wish the amount of meat was larger but what do you want to for .55 (USD) per stick? Just order more! This place also had a fresh fruit stall which was great since the night was hot and balmy.

Beware of the fruit stall. Ordered a stick on papaya and staff gave me 1/2. When confronted staff said it wasn't fresh and walked away with it!

Another yelper described Satay by the Bay as sad....and sadly, it's totally true. We came here after visiting Gardens by the Bay and we were one of only a handful of groups in the entire hawker area. That said, it was fun sitting outside at the low tables, and satay were awesomely good. Just as tasty as anywhere else I'd had, with good variety, and the vendors were eager to serve us. Nice views of the bay as well...it's unfortunate the place doesn't seem to do much business.
