About Mina Bay Seafood

Hand-pick your catch straight from the counter and have it grilled or fried to order without trekking into the city fish markets. Bass Hill Plaza regulars bypass generic takeaways for Mina Bay’s Lebanese coastal classics—think spiced Samka Harra alongside platters overflowing with tender calamari, crisp whiting, and garlic-marinated barramundi. The standout move is Susan’s Siyediyeh, fragrant fisherman’s rice served with golden dory and nutty tahini sauce.

  • Counter-to-plate ordering: Select whole fresh fish directly from the counter display to be seasoned and grilled or fried on the spot.
  • Lebanese coastal recipes: Traditional Lebanese coastal dishes include Susan's Siyediyeh (fisherman's rice) with tahini and spiced Samka Harra.
  • Shareable family feasts: Heaped platters loaded with grilled dory, calamari, fried whiting, and juicy prawns built to share.
