Restaurants in Singapore

Tatler's 2025 Restaurant of the Year and a World's 50 Best fixture, Burnt Ends is Singapore's most compelling case for fire-forward cooking. Bookings are near-impossible — plan three to four weeks ahead minimum. At $$$, the combination of Dave Pynt's dry-aged steaks, a four-tonne wood-fired oven, and a sharp, relaxed floor earns the price. Counter seats are the move for returning guests.

Odette holds three Michelin stars, a Pearl 3 Diamond rating, and ranked #7 in Asia on the World's 50 Best list in 2025. Julien Royer's French contemporary tasting menu at the National Gallery Singapore draws on Southeast Asian and Japanese produce within a classically French framework. At $$$$ per head with near-impossible booking difficulty, this is Singapore's most decorated table and should be prioritised before you book your flights.

Les Amis holds three Michelin stars, Asia's 50 Best #28, and one of the largest wine cellars in Asia — making it Singapore's most credentialled French fine dining address. The seven-course degustation with wine pairing is the move. Book as far ahead as possible; this is near impossible to secure at short notice.

Jaan by Kirk Westaway holds two Michelin stars, an Asia's 50 Best #77 ranking, and a Les Grandes Tables du Monde listing — all at the $$$ tier, which makes it one of Singapore's stronger value cases in top-tier fine dining. The "Reinventing British" tasting menu, served on Level 70 with panoramic city views, demands an early reservation: book four to six weeks out minimum.

Zén holds three Michelin stars, 97.5 La Liste points, and an OAD Asia #3 ranking — the credentialing case for booking it is as strong as anything in Singapore. Chef Martin Öfner runs a Scandinavian-European tasting menu out of a Bukit Pasoh shophouse, Wednesday to Saturday only. Book months in advance; this is one of the hardest tables in the city to secure.

Meta is one of Singapore's strongest cases for a $$$-tier tasting menu: two Michelin stars, a top-40 position in World's 50 Best Asia (2025), and consistent OAD Asia rankings since 2023. Chef Sun Kim's Korean-rooted, globally informed cooking on Mohamed Sultan Road is serious competition for anything in the city at any price. Book weeks ahead — availability is near impossible at short notice.

Born holds a Michelin star and Asia's 50 Best #23 ranking, making it one of Singapore's hardest reservations and most compelling tasting-menu arguments at the $$$$ tier. Chef Zor Tan's 9-course menu fuses Chinese heritage with French technique inside a 1903 heritage building that outperforms most purpose-built fine-dining rooms. Friday lunch is your best shot at a table.

Seroja is chef Kevin Wong's seafood-focused tasting menu restaurant at Duo Galleria, built around the culinary traditions of the Malay Archipelago. Ranked #40 on Asia's 50 Best Restaurants (2025) and holding a Michelin star and Black Pearl Diamond, it is one of Singapore's hardest reservations and one of its most compelling at the $$$ price tier. Book six to eight weeks out minimum.

Waku Ghin is Singapore's most theatrically crafted fine-dining experience and one of Asia's most decorated, with a Michelin star, La Liste 90pts, and OAD Asia Top 50 recognition. Chef Tetsuya Wakuda's daily-changing tasting menu is prepared by a personal chef at your table, making it the right choice for a special occasion — if you can secure the near-impossible reservation.

CUT Singapore is the most credible premium steakhouse booking in the city, with Opinionated About Dining recognition three years running and a 1,150-label wine list overseen by a dedicated sommelier. The beef program spans Australian Angus to Japanese A5 Kobe; the bar holds its own for pre-dinner drinks. Book 3–4 weeks ahead — walk-ins are possible but scarce, especially on weekends.

Saint Pierre holds two Michelin stars and a La Liste score of 94 points, making it one of Singapore's most credentialed French Contemporary tables. Chef Emmanuel Stroobant's One Fullerton dining room is the right call for a special occasion, but book well ahead — availability at this level is tight and the Near Impossible booking difficulty rating is earned.

Cloudstreet is one of Singapore's most independently validated tasting menu restaurants, ranked #56 in OAD Asia (2025) and awarded a Black Pearl Diamond. Chef Rishi Naleendra's Innovative format across two rooms makes it a strong choice for special occasions. Booking difficulty is Near Impossible — plan six to eight weeks out minimum.

Thevar holds two Michelin stars and a near-impossible reservation queue for good reason. Chef Mano Thevar's Indian-Malay-meets-European tasting menu is among the most consistent in Singapore, with a drinks pairing program that earns its keep. Book at least a month out — midweek slots are your best shot — and add the pairing on your return visit.

Labyrinth holds a Michelin star, a World's 50 Best ranking (#37 in Asia, 2025), and one of Singapore's most sought-after reservations. Chef LG Han's set menu reconstructs Singaporean hawker classics using high-quality local ingredients and precise technique. At $$$, it is the strongest option in the city for modern Singaporean cuisine — book several weeks ahead and expect near-impossible availability on short notice.

Iggy's is a Michelin-starred Modern European room on the third floor of voco Orchard Singapore that has held its position among the city's best fine-dining tables since 2004. With a nine-course Gastronomic menu, a Burgundy-heavy wine list, and strong tasting-menu options at both lunch and dinner, it is a serious choice for a special occasion — but book at least a week out, as tables fill fast.

Ranked #95 in Asia's 50 Best Restaurants (2025) and awarded a Black Pearl Diamond, Summer Pavilion is Singapore's most decorated Cantonese kitchen — not a hotel dining room that happens to serve dim sum. The seafood-led menu under Chef Cheung Siu Kong justifies its $$$ price point through serious ingredient sourcing and classical technique. Book well ahead: reservations are near impossible to secure at short notice.

Shoukouwa is Singapore's most decorated sushi counter, holding two Michelin stars and an 84-point La Liste score in 2026. Chef Nishida Kazumine delivers Edomae-style omakase at a genuinely Tokyo-comparable level. Book six to eight weeks out minimum — availability is structurally limited and this is one of the hardest reservations in the city.
