I just came back from Batam 3 days ago with my family. I am a foodie and want to recommend this gem in Batam to all.
The location of this seafood restaurant is very convenient and is only a stone’s throw away from the Harbour Bay Ferry Terminal. It is big and clean with friendly services.
Must try dishes are the signature chilli crabs with mantou, steam live prawns, unique asam sotong, sambal kangkong and steam grouper. The seafood is so fresh, tender, juicy with natural sweetness. Another not to be missed dish is the crispy salted egg fish skin. The bualonglong juice with plum is very refreshing and goes well with all the seafood. It is my favourite drink.
If you are looking for privacy, there are also two private rooms available for family gathering, birthday celebration and business entertainment. For birthday celebration, there is a special service to order the in-house home made cake. This will safe you the hazzle of having to bring its own cake.
Looking forward to come back again for all the good quality and delicious seafood with reasonable price. Highly recommended.

After almost eight years, I finally managed to pay Sei Enam a visit again, and I must say I was not let down at all. If anything, I was blown away by the quality of the food, particularly the restaurant's signature dish, chili crab. It was fresh and succulent, and the gravy was delightfully piquant. The owner, Apri, was welcoming and hospitable, and even gave me a rundown on what went into the making of the dish, as well as other delectable dishes that I ordered, including sambal kangkong (water spinach) and salted egg yolk squid. The dining experience, in general, was nothing short of amazing! Kudos to Apri and his team for turning Sei Enam into a veritable food paradise in Batam.

Great seafood at an excellent price. This was a return visit after a few years, and I'm pleased to say that the quality of the food remains impeccable. Some of the standout dishes this time were the steamed prawns (fresh and succulent, steamed with only mild seasoning so that the prawns' natural sweetness was highlighted) and their version of Fu Yong omelette (perfectly fried omelette covered with a rich Hainanese tomato sauce with soft peas and onions - delicious). The kedondong (bualonglong) juice was, as always, delicious and refreshing. In sum, this was a great meal at the fraction of the price a comparative meal would cost in Singapore. Highly recommended!

Went there on May 1st (the eve before Hari Raya). It was very quiet with only a few table occupied. Still not too many tourists are making it to Batam. I had booked a table and upon arrival I was immediately greeted by my name and we were taken to the upstairs dining room (the ground floor is open to the street so warmer and noisier). The four of us enjoyed a very nice variety of seafood with a professional service. The price is very reasonable (we live in Singapore where prices are much higher). The location is nothing special as it is in town along a busy road but I guess you don’t pay for the view here but for quality seafood, good service and a clean environment. In particular we loved the black pepper cray fish. Would recommend and we will definitely be back!!

This restaurant has great food and ambience. The chilli and black pepper crab is a must try! The steam grouper is very fresh and you can taste the sweetness of the meat. So are the prawns and asam sotong too! The restaurant is a great place for family as it is children friendly. If you have business clients, you can go for their private rooms for your lunch / dinner too. It is just a stone throw away from the Harbour Bay Ferry terminal. So, you can get your lunch or dinner upon arrival or departure from and to Singapore. Highly recommended for great food and dining pleasure!

At the first night we visited, there was no mud crab and the gong-gong (a type of shellfish) was not fresh, hence not tasty and one was smelly. The slipper lobsters we ordered were cooked in 2 ways (with beehoon, i.e. fine rice noodles, and baked) were not outstanding either. We returned the following night because mud crabs would be available. However the meat of the mud crab was not firm. The prawns were good. See photos.

This is my countless time here already and every time, I am very amazed and satisfied by the food and service.
Relatively unknown place but a true hidden jem. You can easily take a Grab to this place, or drive. Many parking places available.
Recommended dishes include: White Pepper Crab, Sambal KangKong, Butter Sotong, Nestum Crayfish, and the He Pio (fishmaw) soup! Ask for their sambal to add to your rice as well!
Reasonably priced and fresh seafood always!

Wow!! Everything was just incredible. Total feast. The insanely delicious signature chili crab is out of this world: order lots of fried mantou to have with condensed milk or dip it in the chili crab sauce: unbeatable. Something as simple as nasi/fried rice, they know how to make it a michelin style dish - so much flavor in every bite. Staff was simply wonderful, so friendly and attentive. We will absolutely be back here and will highly recommend this to our friends back in Singapore. Keep up the good work and huge compliments to all the staff!

We headed there for our dinner.
Love the Steam Red Snapper Teochew style Fish.
Kailan with sea cucumber was okay.
Gong Gong was nice too but wish that their lobster could have been sweet.Not much taste with the lobster meat.
With 2 drinks & all of that,we spent SGD69.
The restaurant smell sweet when we walked in

Went there for dinner on 25th. The place was packed but we waited for the food for more than an hour. The staff service was pretty shoddy and could not explain why the food was so late. I would definitely give this place a miss.

Dear rishikesh68,
Thank you for your visit, we are disappointed to learn that your experience was not a pleasant one. As it was the first day of CNY, we are more packed than usual. We also hired part timers who may not be able to converse as fluently. For those who had reserved, they are told to join us for early dinnner around 5.30 to 6pm to ensure a great dinner experience. In standard practice, our staff should advise you about the waiting time before you place your order. We are terribly sorry that this did not happen for you. Nevertheless, we look forward to have the opportunity to serve you better in the near future.
Kind regards,
Management

Our family loves to dine here. Always enjoy their chilli crab, garlic chicken and calamari. Do not miss their fried mantaos. Ngou hiang is very yummy too. The restaurant is very clean and non smoking too. Their kedongdong juice is probably the best in batam.

My hubby found this restaurant when exporing where to eat seafood...
Initially we got a local guide who took us to another restaurant but it was meh...
Not feeling satisfied, we decided to seek out Sei Enam.
It was an assuming restaurant in that it does not llok like a conventional seafood place with fish tanks etc... In fact it looks like a cafe!
No fancy deco, or cloth table cloth, just plain white with plastic coverings..
What was good about their menu was it is simple to read, no jargons like how the dishes were done or served... Simple flavours and transparent pricing...
We ordered crabs (steamed and salted egg), ceareal morten bay bugs (slipper lobster), butter fried prawns, seafood beehoon and garlic fried chicken.
The first dish arrived which was the crabs... the first bite and we were caught loving it! Licking our fingers with each bite and the size of the crabs to our surprise was actually quite big (not massive but still a full) ...
Then the morten bay bugs, prawns, beehoon and finally the fried chocken... Let us just say we did not stop and we absolutely loved the different flavours!
Tasteful, flavoursome and delicious!
We thoroughly enjoyed the meal and definitely will.come back again.
