Great place to get a drink and play pool or snooker on Level 2.

Came here in the evening, nice ambient. There was a fast moving queue for the boat noodle place. Food for 3 cost around $45 - pretty alright price. However, the place may be a little hard to navigate if you’re new there.

L. M.

Sad that this place is going to disappear. It is definitely very worth your buck. Previously it suffered from too many orders and ridiculous waiting times. But with the croud gone, it was a very satisfying and exciting experience. I had a lot of fun eating the small little bowls and taste testing various different combinations. Some of the combinations definitely had some flaws like the meat being overcooked or the soup had been sucked dry from the noodles. But mostly a satisfying experience.

-Fun place for bonding with corlicks- -Also can pak tor here- review for boat noodles below: at 80 cents per bowl. it is rly worth it but need to order a few like 6-7 bowls to be full well done

P. L.

A place to eat and chill with loved ones. The atmosphere is good but too bad closing at the end of June 2023.

J. f. C. S.

$14 per child for unlimited longkang fishing (can even go have lunch and come back as long as the tag is uncut) but all the fishes died on the second day haha. fun for the kids though!

A.

Satay and a lot of pick me ups by the lakeside. Only issue is if it rains, need to rush to the covered areas. And it does rain a lot here in Singapore. The ambience is nice and the fairy lights does make the place dreamy!! Worth a visit!! Prawning and fishing are quite popular here as well.

P. L.

Best places to fish. Catch and release. First time ever I'm so sated from fishing. Hitting 5 big prayas in just 2 hours. Really really good.

T. Y. H.

Very nice place to chill even though it can be quite a walk away from the MRT! Wide variety of cuisines offered here but do come earlier before the peak hour/mealtimes as the waiting time might get a bit long. Will come back again to try other food next time (:

P. Y.

A very nice and rustic outdoor area that features several restaurants, turtle museum, prawning etc. lots of parking space too.

M.

Prawning: Heard they are moving, hopefully they are not as rigid as now. Just went for prawning and they have very strict rules of not able to move from the assigned seats. You are not even allowed to prawn from the adjacent pond even if you didn't move your butt. Frankly I don't move when prawning, but having those rules just feel suffocating. The Uncles are around "catching" people. There's really too many rules in lives, I don't need that while coming here to relax. Longkang Fishing: Longkang fishing was good, no time limit. No strict rules kekeke

S.

V fun. Caught 4 in 1h across 2 people. Cooked the prawns at the restaurant cos we were lazy to do BBQ it ourselves. Would come again

p.

Great place for fishing! for kids / children! $6 per child all in. if want your kids to experience fishing (OR YOURSELF) - HIGHLY RECOMMENDED

W. “.

Went for the Floor is Lava game, was quite an enjoyable time with my partner. A/C is localized to the individual shops so don't go expecting a reprieve from the outdoor heat. Overall a fantastic experience

C. T. T.

This is an entertainment centre where there are varieties of activities to engage with. Also with food outlets. And enough car parking lots. A good place to spend time with families and friends in this June school holiday.

Z. A.

Love this place esp the ecotrail. Very kampung and up close experiences with the animals - chickens, guinea pigs, rabbit, tilapia, terrapins & stick insect. Do make prior arrangement for the guided tour.

J. L.

Good themed for nature, fishing/prawning etc with lots of great priced restaurants and beer chillaxers.

K. R. K.

Is a relaxing place ,can watch people catch fish ,more to natural environment,many choice to have your food here

S.

Food so so, beer is normal.. Staff service OK.. Ya but environment is nice to chill n relax but may need more music and active service.. But it's covid what can we expect.. Keep safe..

b.

fishing pond is good with NSF package, good price went with friends and got 2 huge catfish. they offer rental rods too for those who do not have their own. however i believe they will be closing down soon unfortunately. ate boat noodles too which wasn't that good but not expensive

X. N.

Had the boat noodles, quite crowded. Papaya salad with Thai sauce is very spicy. Can go prawning next door after you are done with your meal. 20 dollars per hour, free refillable bait.

J. C.

Very chill-out place and closer to nature. Good food, good beer and good environment.

K. V.

Great place to bring kids with variety of activities. Not a refined place

A. G.

Longkang fishing is a nice small water area for kids to fish guppies.. kids enjoy it and there are a lot of shaded area for parents to to sit down..

e.

I only visited the Thai boat noodles place, food is yummy but selection for boat noodles is only 2 soup. Overall quite nice ambient.

M. M. H.

Why are they closing this vibrant place? It's a wonderful outdoor experience with great food and activities.

c.

Love this place for their thai food, esp the boat noodles! Reasonably priced and delicious! The whole orto area is big and offers lots of food & drinks! Oh!! There is also a turtle farm and some longkang fishing area!

Z. J.

Arrived in the late afternoon with a pretty friend. Even though it was raining, we did not get wet while prawning. Caught one every 15mins, a great first prawning experience. 🤙

S. H.

Wanted very long to try it already, finally went and in queue for almost 45 min before getting in, under drizzling too. Finally in, atmosphere was not bad, not very fancy place tho, natural "air-con" with fans around which is not bad for us. We kind of like it BUT do remember to bring insect repellent, we got bitten by mosquitoes over our legs... Hahaha... Omg.... Thai boat noodle was only 80cts, taste was very normal compare to the price, it should be what you paid and get. The ala carte foods we ordered was nice, esp the salad and glutinous rice shoulddddddd try! Overall, bill that night was pricey, nearly $200! Was so 😲 as we didn't expect that much. Will not go again, afterall, purpose of going is to try the thai boat noodle. IG: mommyserene

m. a.

Children love the place..$12 for a mini tank plus the fishes you caught..longkang fishing!!

K. H. D.

Good place for leisure. Suitable to bring along your kids too.

C. H.

Relaxing and back to the simple kampong days in past Singapore - fresh prawns for dinner!

E. K. D. (.

Getaway dining location. Can be a romantic date night spot or a just a relaxed evening with the family. Would recommend!

A. S.

Great place to just fish n chill... Friendly staff on duty to assist...

J. O.

A place where I love to hang out with drinking khakis and food lovers☺️

p. h. L.

Numerous cafes and restaurant for dinner option. Good place to chill out with friends. Too bad this place will be gone soon.

B. T.

Nice place for family to hang out and see turtles and feed them

T. K.

Nice atmosphere and environment. Not much people on a saturday night.

T. T.

Many things to do here for kids. Fishing, prawning, go kart, have a meal. Only downside is not very accessible by general transportation. Parking may get full on peak seasons

J.

Nice place but a lot of mosquitos! You’ll need to bring insect repellent or mosi patches. Don’t buy those sold at Orto cos it’s all expired!😡 Food wise, Thai food is legit esp the MAMA noodle salad.

R. S.

A great place to hang out with friends and family. Kids will love Katapult and is safe under patental supervision. Been there only once. Hope to return soon.

S. M.

Nice place for prawning and a tasty meal

J. C.

Took my daughter to try out the longkang fishing and for a three year old, it's tough. She isn't old enough to figure out how to catch the fish. In the end I was doing the catching and she was watching. Saw lots of parents doing that as well. It just kinda feels a little dirty. I suppose longkangs are supposed to BE dirty!

L. x.

Lovely place to dine in. Not crowded and chill vibe.

I had a great time at the ORTO West Coast Prawning indoor recreation activity! It's always great about good experiences like this. I'm glad that the staff, especially Desmond, was friendly and helpful. It's clear that they really care about their customers' happiness and satisfaction. And of course, the food, beer, and drink options were a nice touch. It's always fun to have some delicious treats on hand while engaging in an activity. It like this place offers a great combination of entertainment and refreshments. Overall, it's great to see that this venue is a good choice for families who want to bond over a fun activity.I’m writing a comment sharing a positive experience and recommending this place to others!

Relax and chill place with many restaurants in one place. Recommend for those who stay in the North area. My fav restaurant would be SGMY. Cheap tower beer :)

K. K.

Nice place for hangout, dinner and many more. My kids love it.

K. P.

Boat Noodle at ORTO is an Instagrammable place at night. You could try your hand at prawn-catching before your meal. Food is so-so though.

K. W. T.

Nice place Sad to know closing down from Jun 23

현. (. H.

I like this place for dinner and beer. Beautiful sunset and a lot of variety restaurants. And it is interest that several people lent fishing rod and catch fish.

J. L.

Nice Mookata outdoor sitting restaurant and cooling Thai Ice Tea Tower drink.

A. W.

Amazing place with cool ambience and a nature escape vibe

t. b.

Good ambience for dinner with beautiful landscape .

A place with indoor and outdoor activities. Wanted to bring the kids for lokang fishing but it was raining and the place wasn't sheltered. Had trampoline instead and the kids had fun too.

J. A.

Good place to play in the nature. But most restaurants are a bit expensive. Well known for prawn fishing & pond fishing.

R. y.

Spent an afternoon with my daughter, probably better to go there in the late afternoon then have a dinner.

z. l.

Good place to chill, this place will be missed when it's due to close for future development

K. L. L. (.

A unique place with a nice trampoline park, prawn fishing, Long-Kang Fishing (for children). Highly recommended for family.

K. Y. L.

I'm not a fishing guy but find that it's a great outdoors environment with good selection of restaurants.

W. L.

Boy's favourite. Pretty small area but fun for the boys. Get your insect repellant ready.

D. T.

Ate at Kamikaze over the water. Great place for dinner with friends or for a romantic night out Nice photo opportunities. Kamikaze has good service n the food n drinks are nice n reasonably priced. All-in-all, my friends and I had a great time there.

G. j.

Nice and beautiful ambient. Nice food with many restaurants to serve different types of food. A place for gathering, entertainment and fun. Good for pastime too with fishing pond, prawning pond and children net fish catch too. Last few months they are closing last day 25 June. Many restaurants have shifted out already. So sad

R. T.

ORTO is an amazing place to enjoy and celebrate kids' Birthday parties. My kids enjoyed the trampoline and going carting there. Apart from this, there are other activities like fishing etc. There are some good restaurants too. So you can plan your next weekend at ORTO.

H. K.

A fun outing place for a family or a group of people. Catching shrimps is harder than it looks but for our 8 year old son and his friend’s family it was an enjoyable experience (he wouldn’t have liked it as much if it was just with the parents….). They let you clean the shrimps, barbecue them but miss the tables where you can eat them. There was an outdoor bar next to it where they may allow you to bring the food, but there was a long queue of waiting (I’d say around 1 hour) and we ended up at another restaurant in the area. Would I do it again? Probably not, unless we are really out of option for activity with another family with kids.

D. M.

Very cool place to hang out. When you are sitting here in the evening, enjoying the company of good friends having some drinks and fingerfood, you actually forget that you are in busy crowed Singapore. It feels like you are in for example Thailand. Great spot !!! Singapore should have more places like this

C. W. L.

Great place for family and friends gathering. Fun prawning activities and fantastic food there.

T. K.

Sad to see SGMY closed down.

R. S.

Good place for late night meet-up and supper with friends, easily accessible by all forms of transport although parking is limited on weekends. Prices and quality of food across the restaurants are reasonable for occasional gatherings.

N. A.

Very nice place. Can do fishinging, prawning. There is small pond for kids to do net fishing. Enjoyed the trampoline park. Can also plan for team building activities. Multiple restaurants are available.

T.

Went to the beginners pond to fish with my daughter. Very good for children to fish there as the fish is of a good size for them to be able to reel up themselves. Other than that, the normal charges is $5/per catch. But I was once asked to pay upfront $5 and was not refunded even though no fish was caught. Very inconsistent in policy.

J. O.

The outside area is nice, and there are a lot of interesting businesses here. However, the places are not always well-labeled, the layout is a bit confusing and there don't appear to be clearly delineated walking paths vs roads cars can use, which eould be nice. Still lots of good stuff here, though.

J. H.

Too bad the place is gonna close down! Great experience away from crowded malls on the weekends but other than the boat noodles, seems Like other dishes are overpriced. Tip to spend comfortably, bring your own drinks!

R. L.

Rented rods are old and faulty but overall a good place with good views and nice owner

B. C.

Cool place to have bear with friends

K. L. K.

Excellent place for drinks and to hang out with friends. Food is mediocre but the service is good

J. Y.

been here twice for prawning. managed to catch at least 3 prawns in one hour. not an expert but good experience with friends. boat noodles here is good too.

j.

Nice to hang out with friends if you drive. Rather remote and extremely busy on a weekday evening. Lots of nice dining options in an open air breezy area. Lots of queues for every establishment.

S. L. K.

Interesting place with many activities and food options. Went to the tortoise farm and did some prawning. Worth a trip if you wanna get a different experience in Singapore. Place is laid back and relaxed.

D. Y.

I can’t say their boat noodle is super good or much better than others, but at least it’s not bad. However, it’s definitely a money saving place! Only 80cents and you can get a bowl of boat noodle! Guess you can’t find this price at anywhere else lol.

Y. T. P.

Good atmosphere, the food was good, skewers are delicious. Boat noodles were good, but could be spicier/ stronger.

D. L.

A good place to relax and date. I was unlucky and didn't catch much. I hope the service staff will smile more next time~ It was still a pleasant day

뚥.

It would be better to think of it as a complex facility that combines a restaurant and a fishing spot. Inside, there is a restaurant, a shrimp fishing spot, and a main fishing spot. For reference, some of the fish caught at the main fishing spot can be cooked at the restaurant.

C. C.

Nice environment, many food choices, a good place to relax

S. W.

I went to experience Thai BBQ with my friends. The food was great and delicious, and the service was great. Thai lemon tea is too sweet and too strong. I won't be impatient if I keep asking for boiled water. Instead, I will be very concerned about whether it is still too sweet.

S. J.

The park is nice, and there are many good restaurants nearby.
