Our Story

Founded by four gentlemen with a passion for travelling and a penchant for discovering different cuisines from all around the world. In their pursuit, one dish that stood out was a certain mediterranean influenced bowl sold from food pushcarts at the corners of Manhattan, New York

The first in Singapore, our meals are filling, delicious and definitely packs a punch! Distinctly tailored to suit the local Singaporean taste buds​

Mediterranean Cuisine

About Overrice

Overrice offers freshly prepared all-in-one bowls with a choice of slow cooked pulled beef, grilled chicken or a plant-based option, fried falafel balls. It is served over seasoned basmati rice, with freshly baked pita bread and mixed salad tucked neatly on the side.

Aside from the expertly prepared versions of Mediterranean rice bowls, Overrice’s expanded menu includes pita pockets (a lighter version of the same variety) and fancy New York inspired mocktails. Also, in the spirit of the “support local” movement, Overrice has partnered with up and coming talented dessert chefs.

The highlight of the whole Overrice experience are the two sauces that accompany each meal — the elusive yet addictive white sauce, and a fiery hot chilli sauce blend. Though the actual recipes remain secret, we’ve got them committed to memory and down to a science — freshly prepared by hand and bottled daily with no preservatives added.

Every detail has been thought out — our to-go food packaging is made from reclaimed and rapidly renewable sugarcane pulp, (a by-product of the sugar refining industry that remains after the juice has been extracted) a resource that would otherwise be discarded and burned. As an added bonus, our bowls are microwave-safe, making reheating convenient.

    i like their truffle fries as they were crispy with strong truffle taste. chicken wings were flavourful. salmon and wagyu rice bowls were delicious too and the amount of sauce was just right. the service was good too. my friend helped me … More ordered a cold ginger tea but i didnt want it with ice so i brought it to the counter and asked if they could remove the ice for me. the girl smiled and said sure. Really appreciate the good food and great service from this place. I will visit again.

    I went on a Sunday at 130pm and there were very people so it was good . Food was served promptly and service was fantastic! 🙂
    Would highly recommend their cheese fries as they use a blend of blue cheese and mozzarella compared to the
    … More conventional cheese sauce on usual cheese fries. Tip is to ask for the sauce on the side so your fries don’t get soggy. The fries itself were shoestring and nice and crispy .
    We also ordered the chicken bowl. Portion was generous (probably should ask for less rice and shouldn’t have ordered an extra side of chicken). I feel the chicken pieces could be drier and not as watery (as shown in the picture taken) hence knocked one star off this review. Quality of the chicken was otherwise good 👍🏾
    2 chicken rice bowls (1 with extra chicken on the side) and 1 blue cheese fries came to a total of $44.
  • Avatar Sallmon ★★★★ a month ago
    I ordered the grilled chicken rice bowl and the new spicy chicken taco. Rice bowl was really nice and portion was perfect. Taco was nice as well and the chicken had a nice kick. Only bad things is that the food took a while to come even … More thought there wasn’t much people, and the seats were kind of uncomfortable.
  • Avatar Yzabel Dumaguing ★★★★★ a month ago
    Best falafel I’ve had in Singapore! They are also really generous with their proteins for the bowls. I’d say an average eater can even split one bowl (just for $15 for the beef/chicken combo) over two meals. Amazing value!
  • Avatar Wahyu Wiryana ★★★★ 2 months ago
    Visited this restaurant back in August 2023 while I was craving The Halal Guys, and this was the best option similar to The Halal Guys, so I gave it a try. The food was okay, but the beef was a bit different from The Halal Guys. The beef … More tasted like beef rendang, which I think is not a good option to be mixed with chicken. But overall, I had a good experience.
  • Avatar ohcardigan ☆☆☆☆ 3 months ago
    We used to have Overrice every month. It was so good that when we had Halal Guys in London we were like “nah bro this ain’t it, overrice does it better” and now I’m a fool.
    There’s been a clear quality drop. We came back from London and
    … More suddenly there’s no more pulled beef?? I don’t think anyone cares for the grain fed beef?!
    Also now you guys only serve 2 pita bread instead of 3 and when I wanted to purchase more you guys said “oh we don’t do that” but I used to buy additional 4 pita for $1??
    When you guys change from using paper bowls to this plate the feel also change sia when you eat. I could care less about the quantity but it was this change of recipe that got me riled up.
    I guess these recent 5 star reviews come from those who have never had Overrice previously.
    Pretty sure the business was sold and now the new owners messed with what was so good.
    P.S. 2 stars for atmosphere because Cigarettes After Sex was playing in the background.
  • Avatar solinski soli ★★★★ 6 months ago
    The food was delicious, with a perfect blend of flavors and texture. My last visit to the restaurant was marred by the absence of air conditioning. It made the dining experience uncomfortable, especially in warm weather. I hope they’ve … More improved this aspect since then, as it had a noticeable impact on the overall enjoyment of the meal.
  • Avatar Bernard Sim ★★★★★ 6 months ago
    Visited this restaurant for the first time today and was absolutely delighted by the explosion of flavors in the plate of rice I ordered.
    I opted for the Grilled Chicken Rice, and I couldn't resist adding an onsen egg to elevate the
    … More experience. To complement my meal, I decided to try the Falafel side dish as well.
    The Grilled Chicken was a culinary masterpiece, offering a delightful blend of spices that danced on my taste buds with each bite. The accompanying sauce perfectly complemented the rice, while the onsen egg contributed a luscious, velvety texture to every mouthful. As for the Falafel, it too was a symphony of flavors.
    I must say, I left the restaurant with a smile on my face and a contented palate. This meal exceeded my expectations in every way. Highly recommended! 🍽️👌
  • Avatar Yingzhi Tan ★★★★ 7 months ago
    Had signature combo with chicken and beef with a $1 drink (promo). Savoury rice bowl with good portion of meats. Didn’t know that it would be served cold though. Had falafel and it had a nice crunch. And the aircon in the restaurant isn’t … More really working. Quite hot.
  • Avatar Melvin Goh ★★★☆☆ 5 months ago
    Ordered the wagyu beef rice bowl and salted egg squid. Wagyu meat was tough and the salted egg sauce was bland.
    Buddy ordered the grilled chicken rice bowl which was still to standard when they were still located at Arab St.
  • Avatar Wong Shu Ning ★★★★ 6 months ago
    A decent stopover for a quick meal. Meat was a bit tough, but sauces and rice were flavorful! A good portion size for the amount you’re paying. Overall I wouldn’t go out of my way, but the food’s decent.
  • Avatar Zahra Azahari ★★★★ 3 months ago
    its good, but sadly a little too salty for me. portion is really generous. i was also given a $5 voucher which was very nice.
  • Avatar Rovik Robert ★★★★ 10 months ago
    Halal-guys inspired rice bowl store that is almost there but not so. Firstly, the staff at the cashier is obviously in lack of training and kept apologizing for mistakes. The food is okay – I thought the rice bowl had a bit too much rice … More for my liking. Appreciated the banana pudding for reminding me of magnolia bakery in the US.
  • Avatar Fay Ng ★★★★★ 5 months ago
    this place is a little hard to get to (it’s a walk from bugis mrt) but dont let that stop you from trying it
    we got the chicken pita pocket and the chicken bowl. the chicken pita pocket comes with chicken in a fluffy pita, a mix of lettuce
    … More and diced tomatoes, and is drizzled with their “white sauce”. the bowl is essentially the deconstructed version of the pita pocket with pita on the side and basmati rice
    the pita pocket was so good especially since the bread goes really well with the fillings! this was my first time trying pita and i was not disappointed 👌🏻 the chicken was really well seasoned but do i remember the skin being slightly tough. the lettuce and tomatoes added that touch of freshness, and the white sauce complemented everything really well. they also have a spicy red sauce. the pita pocket is $7 which is actually really worth given food prices today. highly recommend!
  • Avatar Siti Humaiera ★★★★★ 6 months ago
    Went to eat there for Team Lunch. The vibes and the food was spectacular. The food was just super filling. The staff was super good to us making sure that we are comfortable and the food was okay. Super recommend coming here !! 🫶🏻
  • Avatar Anthony Blake ☆☆☆☆ 6 months ago
    I was looking forward to my first meal here but while the restaurant was nice and clean I was immediately let down by the fact that the food wasn’t hot or even warm when it was served. I ordered a falafel rice bowl and the rice was room … More temperature – not even slightly warm. The 3 falafels were slightly warm but they were definitely made long before my order was placed. This was 6:30pm on a Friday night and there were only 3 other tables there, so the kitchen was not overloaded.
    The flavours were not bad but it was hard to appreciate the food when everything was basically cold, like I was eating leftovers. In particular, it’s not safe for rice to be stored at room temperature for a long period of time. Only the toilet will tell I guess.
  • Avatar ZX Tan ★★★★★ 10 months ago
    One of the best falafel’s you can find in singapore as many which I’ve tried were too dry and crumbly. Their basmati rice tastes amazing too and is definitely comparable/even better than briyani places. Just note that the place is kinda … More small, and it felt like the aircon wasn’t on when the place was full. Overall a great and satisfying meal.
  • Avatar Marcus Ang ★★★★ 10 months ago
    quality pulled beef, pitas and rice bowls were okay, great flavours throughout however sides were not very worth it given their small quantity.
  • Avatar LH Q (QLH0218) ★★★★★ 9 months ago
    Place was empty on a PH night but that didn’t deter us from trying it as we had high hopes for it! And we weren’t disappointed. Partner and I had the combo and chicken bowls + a falafel on the side. All 3 were hits. Pulled beef and chicken … More were so good. It was made better with the sauce that was generously drizzled. Falafels’ were $2 per piece but partner said it was worth every penny so that shows how good it is haha. Will be back for more! Also, the aircon + fan was blasting at us so I’m not too sure why other reviewers said it was stuffy 🤔
  • Avatar Fadilla Abdul Samat ☆☆☆☆ 7 months ago
    First time dining here. Don't know what to expect. Was given a frozen Salmon (not even 1/2 cooked) it was raw. Staff told me that the Salmon IS served like that. so basically, it is served RAW. Ok. Wagyu? see pic. It's raw. Not … More even medium rare. You could have asked me how I wanted the meat to be served, but NO. Waste of money. Messaged Overrice and was not given an explanation. So I guess, Overrice serves RAW meat. Thanks for not letting me know.
  • Avatar Xin Hao ★★★★★ a year ago
    Finally visited their newly opened outlet at Sultan Gate just 3-mins walk away from their previous location along Arab Street. The new area is slightly more spacious with larger seating capacity, and also retaining the cosy, and comfortable … More environment to enjoy a meal with good company. It’s founded by four gentlemen during the pandemic and they grew the business tremendously since then.
    It’s an all-in-one bowl with chicken, pulled beef, falafel balls – served with basmati rice, pita break and mixed salad. The white sauce go so well with the bowl with every bite and can be addictive! They do serve pita pockets and several side dishes as well – the beef fries is a must-try!
    Staff are super friendly and approachable. Service is quick and all bowls are consistent with the quality and quantity. Digital payments all accepted as well. Lunch meal set also available. Bang for the buck. Reasonably priced. 10mins walk from Bugis MRT. Cannot ask for more. Special call out to Hakim for the professionalism and customer-centricity.
  • Avatar Andii N ☆☆☆☆ a year ago
    it tries too hard to be Sg’s version of Nyc’s halal guys. flavours are lacking. i almost wept when eating halal guys in Nyc but this, we couldn’t finish it. falafel was over cooked. pita was nicer than the rice set but nothing to rave about. … More

    Had chicken over rice!
    Superb quantity, loaded with chunks of chicken spiced to perfection.
    Would recommend to buy an extra white sauce as that keep all the ingredients together.
    Hot sauce is super hot! So try it only you like super spicy
    … More food.
    Overall, a good place if you to have a quick and wholesome meal.
  • Avatar Wantanabe San ★★★★★ a year ago
    Fuss free dining/take away with selection of Mediterranean inspired food and finger snacks. A fulfilling meal every time. Price suits the location. Best FALAFEL bites is located here! Halal.
  • Avatar Kyra Wuttunee ★★★★ a year ago
    Really tasty quick meal! The chicken was tender and the white sauce was super good – it made the meal! Rice was well flavoured. I really enjoyed my meal here – would go back again!
  • Avatar Lynn Ho ★★★★ a year ago
    Had the chicken over rice with the falafel bites and yawn balls. The bowl was tasty and very filling and the falafels were freshly fried with a nice crust. The yawn balls were a bit too spicy for my liking. They're similar to NYC's … More Halal Guys with a little bit more local taste. Would pop by here for a bowl if we're in the area!
  • Avatar Howard ★★★★★ a year ago
    Filling but healthy and delicious, there's plenty of options and combinations to try. The seating is spartan but practical and the food came out quickly. Spicy sauce (which had a real kick) was served on the side to suit individual … More tastes. For the price this is definitely worth adding to the lunch options for the area.
  • Avatar Freddy ★★★★★ 2 years ago
    The food was quite nice. The portion is filling. The rice has a lot of spice, a bit like biryani but stronger. When you mix everything together, the flavours combine well. Staff was friendly and the place was nice and clean. The food was … More served quickly too.
  • Avatar Don C. ★★★★ 2 years ago
    Was walking around haji lane looking for food and chanced upon this hidden gem. Food portion was very generous, their basmati rice is delicious. Had requested them to separate the sauce as I personally do not like typical sauces. However, … More I was proven wrong! Together with their secret white sauce, the meal was absolutely satisfying. Their pulled beef is soft and juicy too.
  • Avatar Kevin Kim ★★★★★ a year ago
    Easily one of the most value for money places in Arab street. It's a well known fact that their rice bowls are absolutely delicious, but I only recently discovered their beef fries. For the amount of beef, it's a steal. Their … More prawn balls however seemed less value for money in comparison

    We were just walking around and finding somewhere nice and quiet to eat. Found this place and it was AMAZING!!! Great price, friendly people, and delicious. We came back many times during our trip.
  • Avatar nomz ★★★★★ a year ago
    Was in the vicinity of Arab street and looking for something that was affordable and halal as most of the eateries around the area tend to be on the pricier side. A quick google search recommended me to this eatery and I'm glad it … More did. The food was amazing and they were generous with the portion. The staff were really friendly too.
  • Avatar Roger Dean ★★★★★ 2 years ago
    Tender Pulled beef, Juicy Chicken, Fluffy pita bread, flavourful rice with Flaming Hot Sauce and Smooth White sauce bring me back to NYC where I had the 1st combo overice experience. 5/5 food and ambience…
  • Avatar Torrey Kwok ★★★★★ a year ago
    Modeled after Halal Guys in NYC, Overrice elevates the dish with their own spin. Spicy sauce served on the side has the kick you want from a chili sauce!
  • Avatar Aiman Abdul Haris ★★★★★ a year ago
    Amazing pitas, at a really reasonable price. The portion is super generous, and the sauce inside the pita feels distinct compared to other pita eateries.
    The chicken one seems super well cooked, and the falafel was deep-fried to crispy
    … More perfection.
    Tasted a bit of rice too, and it was a really filling dish.
    Would definitely come here again.
  • Avatar Tian Yong ★★★★ 2 years ago
    Would give a 4.5 stars. Portion is really good for the price. Chicken was nicely cooked. The dish tastes plain without the sauce. Their signature is their secret sauce, which is a bit garlicky, sour. Didn’t quite like it. Used the Chili … More instead which can be quite spicy but was nice. Would eat again once in a while
  • Avatar Alan Voo ★★★★★ 2 years ago
    Really friendly service, the beef is good. The chicken not too bad. If you have young children that cannot handle spice,you can request them to separate the chili sauce
  • Avatar Rafi Kasmadjian ★★☆☆☆ 2 years ago
    Second time having a similar issue..Room to improve in customer service but great food. Basically when you say you're open at 12, you should open at 12, not 12:10. Especially when we have to go back to work. And when you say close … More at 9:30, you should close the 9:30, not 9:15 and say we are closed, and then add we are not closed, we ran out of food…really enjoyed this place but can't come back. Communication is key here
  • Avatar Abhay Kumar ★★★★★ 2 years ago
    Excellent place in Arab street for a quick meal. The signature bowl is very filling (no need for extras) and wash it down with juice or soda. The staff is very polite and there is both internal and external seating.
    Do be mindful of their
    … More operating hours to enable them to close on time.
  • Avatar Hai-Ching Tan ☆☆☆☆ 2 years ago
    I am not sure where the good ratings come from but I did visit the restaurant due to the google high rating. Sadly,very disappointed. I went in the afternoon with no one in the restaurant which I were quite surprised for such a highly rated … More restaurant.
    The staff definitely not friendly and without a single smile. They did not even introduce the lunch offer when ordering.
    Ordered their signature chicken rice and beef fries. The chicken rice taste decent but not sth you will revisit again for the price. The beef fries was served in a generous amount of beef but the taste is not my cup of tea. Beef is dry and so is the fries.
    The yogurt sauce for the rice and fries tasted ok but not enough to compliment the rice,beef and fries.
    The item I ordered which taste the best is the bottled orange juice.
    Maybe not my luck of the day but definitely will no revisit again.
  • Avatar Lim Xian Na ☆☆☆☆ 2 years ago
    VERY DISAPPOINTED 🙁 I understand it's my own fault for being careless.
    After dining in, I misplaced my paper bag which had important items and walked off the restaurant. However, I only noticed that I left my item 15-20 mins after
    … More I left.
    I hurriedly called them and the staff said that they had cleared the table and they did not see any items left on the table. I called them a second time to reconfirm if they could check again if there were any items left behind however this time they were very sure that nothing was left behind.
    When I rushed back to Overrice, I was frantically looking for my item and I approached the same staff that answered the phone regarding the paper bag and she gave me the same response. Another staff also gave a similar response.
    I was guessing that there could be a possibility they might have thrown it by accident, thus I didn’t want to make a big deal out of it. Hence I approach the staff
    and told her “I” had accidentally thrown it inside the dustbin. (in reality, I did not even step a foot near to the dustbin) because I didn’t want to make a huge fuse and blame them for throwing it, because they were just doing their job.
    To my dismay, when I checked the dustbin my paper bag was REALLY inside the dustbin. I am very disappointed as the staff did not apologise for disposing of my item, this meant they did not check if there were anything left behind in the very first place despite saying they did 🙁 and instead, both staff stared at me like I was a freak for picking out my paper bag from the dustbin.
  • Avatar Melissa Eisner ★★★★★ 2 years ago
    Might be one of my new favorite place to go for a quick and yummy meal. Love the bowl, the sauces really made the dish, but it was all fresh and wholesome and yummy! Great meat, great pita … run don’t walk to this place!
  • Avatar Keval Singh ★★★★★ 2 years ago
    Great spot for a quick and yummy meal. Ordered the chicken bowl which was quite filling. The taste and flavours are reminiscent of a plate of biryani. The bowl comes with a side of spicy sauce that I quite liked as well.
  • Avatar Suhéb Khawaja ★★★★★ 2 years ago
    This is my new favourite go-to place for casual meal.
    After trying the chicken, beef and felafel… Beef still is my favourite.
    I've been a bonafide "halal guys" fan for more than a decade, but I think the red sauce at Overrice
    … More is better!
    I just hope the quality stays the same.
  • Avatar Realyn Tagle ★★★★★ 2 years ago
    I am really fan of eating beef and I can say the beef overrice is really good!. You may visit their place and try..
    However price wise is I feel its overprice.
  • Avatar Michelle C. ★★★★★ 3 years ago
    We walked past the restaurant on our way to another. We decided to cancel our reservation and go back to Overrice. The bowls were filling, different textures in every bite. We also go some sides that were quite yummy. We asked for the sauces … More to be on the side. They are delicious; however it was nice to be able to taste the flavors individually too. There’s a nice vibe to the atmosphere and we plan to visit again!
  • Avatar Ruksana Azim ★★★★★ 3 years ago
    There are a very few meat dishes I eat and the beef bowl here is one of them. The meat is so soft and infused with so much flavour. The rice and white sauce match perfectly with the meat. The chilli is intense though so maybe don't … More go too hard with the the red sauce.
  • Avatar Ninnie J ★★★★★ 2 years ago
    love their dish, esp the chicken popcorns. the portion is also huge for an affordable price. would def come again
  • Avatar Basel Nijem ★★★★★ 2 years ago
    Really good. Great food and welcoming staff. The pulled beef is amazing.
  • Avatar Vikhash Charadva ★★★★★ 2 years ago
    Amazing food, their falafels are the best i've had in Singapore. Tastes amazing and not dry at all. Definitely a must try!
  • Avatar Apurva Ghanekar ★★★★ 2 years ago
    Food was delicious. The chilli and “special sauce” is really power and goes so well with the kebab and veg combo. The chicken pocket was my favourite because it was filled with meat and sauces came oozing out. 10/10 would go again.
  • Avatar Vimalraj Selvam ★★★★★ 3 years ago
    Best place in Arab street, went with the family, surprisingly my wife liked a lot. She is not a multi cuisine, but she loved this. We also ordered fries and spicy chicken popcorn which was also delicious. The best part is all served on … More eco friendly plates and bowls, 5 stars for that. I recommend this shop strongly.
  • Avatar Zhiming Lim ★★★★★ 3 years ago
    3rd time coming back to this place in a week, and we found out that the buffalo chicken was absolutely perfect. Smokey, sweet and slightly heaty, it was an amazing experience with the mains. Cheers to the amazing staff who were always friendly … More and cheerful to everyone! Big love.
  • Avatar Feroz Mya Aye ★★★★★ 3 years ago
    This place is an ode to the ever famous Halal Guys in New York.
    The food here is somewhat similar but with the local owners own flair.
    That said the food is great and the staff are always friendly and welcoming.
    Bowls and Pitas are awesome!!
    … More
    Go ahead and try it, no regrets for sure!
  • Avatar Audrey ★★★★★ 3 years ago
    Absolutely amazing and very reminiscent of the halal guys bowls in NYC! We tried both the pulled beef and chicken bowls, the meat was really tender and we slightly favored the chicken. Will definitely return again to try it fresh in-store! … More
