Sen Sen Sushi Jem by DON DON DONKI Singapore — Restaurant in Singapore

What's with the long queue outside Don Don Doki recently? Well, Don Don Donki had recently launched Sen Sen Sushi in JEM on 28 July 2023 and it's drawing lots of attention.

This Japanese Supermarket has continued to gain popularity among consumers not only by providing accessibility to a huge variety of Japanese items, snacks, bentos etc. A peek into the restaurant had already given us a comfortable feel with its warm wood interior design. Besides sitting beside the conveyor belt, you can also choose areas without the conveyor belt.

Looking through the glass panels outside Sen Sen, we get to see Staff carrying out the cuts on the fish.

No doubt that they are only a few days into the operation, but I'm quite impressed by the efficiency from the food served to their customer service.

For orders that we had placed, it will be served through the high-speed conveyor belt system through the miniature "Shinkansen" aka High-Speed Rail. Dining time is limited to 60 minutes per table.

A good mixture in the Oishi Sushi Set. It comprised Salmon, Shrimp, Conger Eel and Pickled Mackerel. The delectable pieces of sushi were all complemented by the vinegary sushi rice.

Oishi Sushi Set 箱寿司拼盘 - $6.80

I'm still game about Sword Fish and was impressed that diners were given sealed fresh grated wasabi to dip their sushi.

Sword Fish - $2.80 & Tamago Yaki - $2.50

The tempura was light on the palettes and was not too greasy. Assortment includes Shrimp, Squid, Crab Stick, Mushroom and lady finger.

Assorted Tempura - $9.80

One of the must-try will be their Sukiyaki Style Seared Wagyu. Love the tenderness of the meat. The rice of the sushi was compact and regular in rectangular shape.

Sukiyaki Style Seared Wagyu - $5.80, Seared Scallop - $3.50, Seared Tamago Mentai - $3.50

Chuka Hotate - $2.80, Shrimp - $2.80, Inari - $2.50, Eel $2.80

Littleneck Clam Miso Soup was tasty and those 6 clams were chewy. The soybean-based soup was not too salty.

Littleneck Clam Miso Soup - $2.80

This reminds me of the Mille Crepe we purchased from DDD (Don Don Doki) Supermarket. The Mille Crepe was decent and the alternating layers of crepe with cream were good enough for us.

Tiramisu Mille Crepe - $3.80

Dig our spoons into the wobbly hot cup of Chawanmushi and we found scallops, mushrooms, crab sticks as well as edamame!

Japanese Steamed Egg - $2.80

If you are going for quality over quality Sushi, Sen Sen Sushi will be the choice and comparable to Sushiro in my opinion. However, Genki Sushi will still be my top preference among the conveyor belt sushi eateries.

We waited for 45 minutes in the crowd for a table. What's the conclusion? I won't mind revisiting again but given a shorter...

My first visit didn't leave a good impression. The food served wasn't accurate to the pictures in the menu, and the price couldn't justify the portions! The bad seating location right at the entrance made me feel like I was dining at Sushi Express ww no privacy at all

Made my second visit on 01/02/24, we were greeted warmly by the staff and they sat us at a 6 seater table. I think they ran out of counter seats but it's okay Upon seating us, a lady staff recommended us to get the Eho Maki as it was a limited-time menu item. I appreciated that she wasn't being pushy and overselling.

We got quite a few items, with the bill amounting to $56+ A few highlights of our meal were:

• Aburi Salmon Roll A bit pricier than the other menu items but very filling! Was listed as one of the chef's recommendations.

• Salmon Sashimi At $4.80, it's priced quite reasonably. The slices were decently thick and chewy too.

• Seared Scallop Definitely would recommend! It has a good umami flavour to it and was seared quite nicely.

• Kaisen Eho Maki Was recommended to us. Priced at $8.80++, it's still quite worth for the portion. Hope they bring it back :)

• Jim Beam Highball They have a 1-for-1 promo on weekdays, which makes it more appealing to dine here on a weekday evening. Refreshing and helps open your appetite.

Overall, I would recommend this sushi restaurant if you aren't on a tight budget. Good food, good service and friendly staff Has some interesting seasonal items, but would be nice if they could extend their promotional period for these items!

It's a bit pricey for the portion size though. If you eat conservatively, it's about $20+/pax. The bill can go up to $40/pax if you order a lot or want to try many items. There are many good dishes worth to try! If you aren't willing to spend, you're better off paying your patronage at Sushiro instead.

The atmosphere is okay, if you're dining alone or 2 pax, you're almost guaranteed a counter seat, especially during peak hours. Would've been better if they had more...

Went to this place on a weekday late afternoon for early dinner/late lunch, place was pretty empty and good for a tea time meal. Have to say that the sushi is very worth it for the price point, everything we tried was very fresh and didn’t bust our wallets, it is a good go to place if you don’t want to spend too much money at Sushiro.

I recommend ordering the sashimi dons(rice bowls) instead of the nigiri sushi(sushi that comes in pairs) if you want your sashimi sushi fix as the price for the salmon ikura don was $13.80 for thick slices of salmon and if you were to compare the don price to the number of salmon nigiri you order the don would still be cheaper! Don’t say I neh warn and I also hope this hack stays for long 🙃

Their chutoro and ootoro are also not bad, pretty fatty but a little stringy.

The squid tempura is a must, so fresh and not chewy at all! Felt like I was eating bouncy fish.

Their scallop nigiris taste really great, I would say better than genki sushi and cheaper than genki some more.

If you like fatty stuff, their seared salmon belly will hit the spot for you without breaking your budget, it is very fatty tho so might be good to share it if you are ordering a lot of other food

Their fluke fin was also very rich creamy and tasty!

Miso soup and chawanmushi were alright, matcha ice cream fuyohhhhhh you must get it

A really nice place that you don’t have to spend a whole fortune to enjoy at....
