We tried Putien Westgate on New Year's Eve for dinner. Luckily, the queue was not too long. The food was delicious, especially the bread with pork, steamed egg, egg fried rice, and bee hoon. The hot pot oyster with basil was delicious and special as well. The portion was quite large, even though we ordered a small one. Worth eating again if nearby.

Hey, love the food here. I came here at 3:00 PM, so luckily it wasn't crowded at all. The Duotou clams are available now, and they're very good. Also, you can try the Red Mushroom Lor Mee.

I love coming to Putien. Their food standard has been consistent. This is not my first time at the Westgate outlet. But it's my first time having the deboned croaker 🐟! (I hope I got the name right 😂). The fish is so tender; my family loves it! However, I find it pricey at $48!
I had the usuals: bee hoon, lychee sweet and sour pork, and the clay pot chicken — my perennial favourites.
Service staff is attentive, so we received good service. However, my only grouse was that it was hot where I was seated. My group was seated just near the entrance, near the cashier counter. So when I brought it up while paying, the staff explained they had spoken to the building management about the issue. And nothing was done! Hmm... couldn't they have done something on their own with portable fans?
So, try to sit inside the restaurant if you are dining at Putien Westgate.

The food is great and delicious. We went during a peak hour, and the restaurant was full. They opened up the room for us rather than having to wait for a table in the main dining area. Thank you for offering us the room. The noise can be a bit loud in the room if we don't close the door. After the food was served, we closed the door. Our guests enjoyed the food! They loved the soup, sweet and sour pork, chilli clams, and eggplant! Thank you very much.

Excellent food and service at Putien. We came to this branch for the first time because I really wanted to try their squirrel fish (a yellow croaker, deboned and carved into an ornamental shape resembling a squirrel, served in sweet and sour sauce), and we were not disappointed at all!
The squirrel fish was fantastic; the outsides were crispy but the meat was still tender and not dry, and the sauce was delicious. I love the addition of pine nuts to the sauce - in terms of both flavour and texture.
Their braised cabbage and beancurd soup is also really delicious, and you absolutely must order their Mazu Mee Sua. Every dish is really delicious and the ingredients are high quality.
Service is really excellent as well. We didn’t have a reservation, so we joined the queue by scanning a QR code. A WhatsApp message notifies you when your table is ready so you can walk around without having to wait. Once our table was ready, we were promptly seated and our orders promptly taken. The waitstaff are really attentive (even though the restaurant is packed) and will check on you often to see if you need anything and if the food is to your liking. They even helped to serve us the soup even though they were so busy.
We’ll be back.
