The buzz: As if we weren’t already spoilt for dining options in the Marina Bay Area, here’s another. We dare say that none of the other restaurants are quite as grand.
The vibe: Elegant and classy, with an old world vibe that’s most alluring. Envision impressive high ceilings, pale green pillars and floor-to-ceiling glass windows overlooking the Marina Bay waterfront. The dark wooden furniture and herringbone oak floor are punctuated by tones of red and burnt sienna to complete the look.
The food: Though the restaurant defines itself as a modern European brasserie, this is still a swanky joint (no flip-flops please), so expect food to match. For a case in point, try their basil tomato-avocado salad with lobster tail and compressed watermelon ($22) and the roasted cod fish poised on a saffron-chorizo risotto with a parmesan emulsion ($36). Choose from a two- or three-course set lunch ($36, $45).
The drinks: With a comprehensive library of wines from around the world, we know what we’ll be drinking. And you will too.
Why you’ll be back: The ambiance is certainly a draw, perfect for business lunches or even a romantic dinner. Besides the view, the excellent service doesn’t hurt either.

Our Policy
Reviews are based on actual visits to the establishments listed, without the knowledge of the restaurants. Reviews are included at the discretion of the editors and are not paid for by the individual restaurants. Opinions expressed here are those of I‑S Magazine and our super‑sneaky team of hungry reviewers. Menus, opening hours and prices change and should be checked. New restaurants are not reviewed within one month of their opening.
Reviews are written from a typical diner’s perspective. A dining experience includes more than just food; ratings are also based on service, atmosphere and fun. Ratings are awarded in accordance with the type of restaurant reviewed, so the city’s best wonton noodle stall could earn a “not to be missed” rating while a fancy French restaurant could be a “forget it.”
