Singapore’s Last Manhattan Fish Market Outlet Closes at Northpoint City

The Manhattan Fish Market has shut down its final outlet in Singapore, marking the end of its presence in the country.

The seafood restaurant chain’s last location at Northpoint City ceased operations last week, with the outlet now marked as “permanently closed” on Google Maps.

The closure was confirmed by a customer service officer from Northpoint City, reported Vulcan Post.

The restaurant’s website outlet locator page displays an error message, while its delivery partner Oddle lists all items from the Northpoint City outlet as out of stock.

The restaurant chain previously maintained 10 outlets across Singapore, with locations at Plaza Singapura, Suntec City, Changi Airport, Tampines Mall, Changi City Point, and Kallang Wave mall.

The chain’s social media presence has been inactive since 22 November 2023.

History of the Manhattan Fish Market

The Manhattan Fish Market originated in Malaysia approximately 20 years ago and expanded its operations to multiple countries including Indonesia, Sri Lanka, and Qatar.

The restaurant chain is owned by Malaysian-based Revenue Valley Group, which also operates other food and beverage brands. The group previously managed Tony Roma’s in Singapore, which closed its only outlet in 2019.

Legal Challenges

In 2009, the restaurant faced legal challenges when its competitor Fish & Co won S$269,000 in damages through a High Court ruling.

The case involved allegations that Manhattan Fish Market had used confidential information and copied Fish & Co’s restaurant concepts.

While the chain has ceased operations in Singapore, it continues to maintain its presence in Malaysia, where the restaurant chain first began.
