Five of us came for lunch because we heard that the or fish burger was excellent. While we thoroughly enjoyed the lemonade and the eel appetizer, the fish burger was disappointing. The fish was dry, and the plate was excessively oily. All five of us had ordered the fish burger based on their servers’ strong recommendations, with one even claiming it was the best in the city. Unfortunately, none of us could finish our meals as they did not meet our expectations. We communicated our concerns to the server and asked him to relay this to the chef, but we did not receive any feedback afterward.…查看更多

We came here for a birthday celebration and shared 2 4-course lunches. Every single appetizer was very well done. The octopus in the octopus salad was tender just to my liking. The clams were served in a very tasty broth full of umami and it was complemented with a delicious garlic bread. The foie gras terrine was served cold at the perfect temperature and it didn’t feel heavy at all. My friend’s favourite was the 63c degree egg with cauliflower foam. As for the mains, the garoupa was fine but I thoroughly enjoyed the spaghetti with red prawns. There were 2 large red prawns with the entire head and shell and also more chopped up prawn meat mixed in with the spaghetti. I’ll be ordering this again next time I come. We finished with the tiramisu which was well done as expected. We went on a weekday and the restaurant was not full. The service was very good that day and the server helped us choose a table with a view that we liked. For the birthday celebration, they provided a candle and music box which was a nice touch. …查看更多

Went there for a leisurely weekday lunch with my partner. The menu was extensive for such a small space. We ordered 2 bento boxes at $210 each. The portions were small but it was beautifully presented and the taste was pretty good. We were surprisingly satisfied after finishing everything. There were only 2 pieces of grilled eel so I had to add the crab salad and the stewed chicken to the rice. The Hokkaido cheesecake was very delicate and completes the meal well. The space was small but the service was really outstanding. They kept moving us whenever a larger table comes up as the first 2 we sat at were really only comfortable for 1 person. The manager-looking lady (think her name was Scarlett?) was so friendly with all her patrons. I enjoyed just watching her and listening to how she was greeting her regular customers and new visitors. She clearly enjoys her work and is very good at it. I would go there again just to experience the great service. …查看更多

We booked the restaurant a day ahead for a Tuesday evening for 3 people. We shared the raj kachori which was beautiful and delicious. The only issue I had with it was that I thought the shell was a bit on the hard side. If it could be more crispy and flakey, the dish would be perfect. We ordered the butter chicken, beef short rib curry and saag portobello. They were all very different and was a great complement to the garlic naan and basmati rice we had. The butter chicken was not as tender as some other places but the sauce was extremely tasty. The saag portobello was very light as it didn’t have any cream in it. The service was also attentive and the dining room was cozy and inviting. I can’t wait to come back for the lovely curries.…查看更多

It is our first time visiting this Japanese restaurant. The seating is quite tight as the chairs at the bar are almost touching each other. Luckily, the first seating at noon is full so we booked the second seating at 1:30pm. We were actually the only customers there so we didn’t have to cozy up with strangers. The food came quite quickly one after another given the 2 chefs and 2 servers only needed to serve the 2 of us. We ordered the $498 omakaze and the food was good but I wouldn’t say that it was spectacular. The tomato and sea asparagus salad was super refreshing. All the sashimi and sushi were super fresh. The sashimi The most impressive dishes were the akami sushi with shaved foie gras and the cheese tofu dessert with shaved foie gras. …查看更多

First time going to Vista. Haven’t been to Aqua for a long time so it was nice to go back to this location with fantastic view. We went to the Saturday brunch. The appetizer buffet was a beautiful spread. The items that I enjoyed the most were the veal tonnata and carvery of the day which was a super tender, juicy and flavourful ribeye. The seafood tower included a huge tiger prawn, half a lobster, mussels, clams and salmon tartare per person. There was only one choice at the pasta station. The dessert platter was amazing with 5 mini desserts per person. The free flow packages were also of good value. Overall, I would say the quality and value were there but I would only go if the daily carvery was the ribeye. …查看更多

Have been here several times already so I always order my favourites like the lingua tonnata and hanger steak. The fried honeycomb tripe, smoked sardines with stracciatella and artichokes, sea snails and mulberry tart were also very appetizing. I have never been disappointed at Chef Marco Xodo’s restaurant. The service was attentive and friendly as usual. Looking forward to my next visit!…查看更多

Always enjoyed going to Tosca: the amazing view, the high ceiling, grand decor and well executed food. We ordered their tasting menu Minuetto ($1,688). Even though it listed 4 courses, there were several amuse bouche, a pre-dessert and petit fours so the meal was very satisfying. The last amuse bouche with black truffles was decadent. My favourite dish is their Mazara red prawn, wild hamachi with Kaluga caviar. The Alaskan black cod was delicious and super tender and juicy. The Acquerello risotto was too al dente for my liking. The veal tenderloin was tender and flavourful. Even both the desserts and petit fours were of very high calibre. The service was attentive but they lack friendliness and they don’t smile. I would prefer if they spoke more slowly as it was hard to understand their English. Other than the interesting service, I would say that the meal was perfect and I look forward to returning. …查看更多

Came here for a birthday celebration. The food was outstanding, the sake selection was extensive, the Japanese head chef was friendly and the waitress Kim was exceptional. Our overall experience was amazing. Will definitely come back again and will ask for the Japanese head chef and Kim to serve us in the private room again. We enjoyed the traditional Edomae sushi which is simple but it lets the freshness of the fish come through. The fish slices were good size. I particularly enjoyed the ankimo, uni and clam soup. The price of the omakaze menu was not cheap but it was worth the value. …查看更多

We will eat whatever Chef Lam thinks is in season and everything always turns out to be exceptional!That’s why we keep going back every week but we rarely repeat the same dishes. We have never tried this deep fried sole before. The abalone and clam in fish broth is also refreshing. Thank you Chef Lam for taking such good care of us again. …查看更多

I have been here for lunch many times but dinner only once before covid. Their dinner is more delicious than dinner at some Michelin starred restaurants in town except it is much better value. I recently came back for dinner for a birthday celebration. Their dinner tasting menu was even better than I remembered. Every single dish was perfectly executed and my favourite dish was definitely their roasted lobster. The lobster was tender and flavourful. Their lobster cappuccino was creamy but not too rich. They gave us the semi-private room and their servers were very attentive. I can’t wait to come back again. …查看更多

Went there after watching the Artsfest Finale. Since it was late enough, there was no queue and the owner/chef was very polite and friendly. We had the prawn soup and the abalone chicken soup. Both were outstanding and worth trying. The seared rare roast beef was also very tender and delicious. The noodles were perfectly al dente. I highly recommend but go only when it is very late like 11pm to avoid the queue. …查看更多

Guacamole and salsa were great. Did need to ask the server to add more lime, onion and salt to the guac. Tacos were perfect as it. The signature bone marrow and Japanese octopus dish was disappointing. The bone marrow was slightly undercooked. The fat has not rendered at all. The octopus was over-cooked to the point that we asked for a replacement. Both were under-seasoned. Service was quite good. We will probably return but will definitely avoid the bone marrow and octopus dish. …查看更多

Came here to to try their lunch. Every single dish was perfectly executed. I particularly liked their mushroom cappuccino and seared whole dover sole with beurre blanc. Remember to ask for extra sauce cause it is just so delicious. Andy was the best host. He was able to explain every dish in detail and made everything extra appetizing. Can’t wait to come back to try their dinner menu. …查看更多
