The Top 100 Places to Eat Near Round Boy Roasters

  1. Rank 1. Zén

    Neo-Nordic New American

    Björn Frantzén's Singapore shophouse holds three Michelin stars and a tasting menu that moves you floor by floor, aperitif and amuse-bouche downstairs, the full neo-Nordic progression upstairs. The kitchen leans on seafood and Japanese ideas without quite belonging to either, and the non-alcoholic pairings are eccentric in a way that somehow makes you trust them more. Worth knowing the restaurant is temporarily closed before you plan around it.


  2. Rank 2. Born

    Modern Chinese

    A former rickshaw depot at a Chinatown crossroads, the triangular building alone stops traffic before you step inside. Born is a fine dining restaurant where glass ceilings and a suspended paper sculpture set the tone for chef Zor Tan's multi-course menu: Modern Chinese cooking shaped by French technique, with each course tied to a principle like Memory or Legacy. It holds a Michelin star and a spot on Asia's 50 Best Restaurants.






  3. Rank 7. Cloudstreet

    Sri Lankan Australian


  4. Rank 8. JAG

    Contemporary French







  5. Rank 14. NAEUM Restaurant

    Contemporary Korean


  6. Rank 15. Meta

    Modern Korean






  7. Rank 20. Odette

    Modern French

    A paper installation by artist Dawn Ng hangs from the ceiling of this three-Michelin-star modern French restaurant inside the National Gallery, which means dinner arrives with a side of actual museum energy. Chef Julien Royer grew up on a farm and cooks like it still matters, sourcing from small producers across Asia and Europe. The menu sits on a French spine with Asian inflections folded quietly through it. It holds a spot on The World's 50 Best Restaurants.




  8. Rank 23. Nae:Um

    Contemporary Korean

    Each seasonal tasting menu at this fine dining restaurant arrives framed as an "episode," with past chapters organized around Jeju Island, a sunset walk along the Han River, and a backyard barbecue. Chef Louis Han reinterprets Korean nostalgic cooking through Western technique, so cold buckwheat noodles become haute cuisine and a buttery sauce quietly channels a spicy fish stew. It landed on Asia's 50 Best Restaurants list, and the intimate shophouse room, all cream and warm light, keeps the focus on the plates.






  9. Rank 28. Willow

    Contemporary Japanese





  10. Rank 32. Lerouy

    Contemporary French


  11. A Neapolitan-style pizza bar in the Jiak Chuan Road dining strip, where the dough is long-fermented, the crust rises high, and the aperitivo list is taken as seriously as the pies. Negronis and Americanos anchor the drinks, and the room, dark-toned and minimal, fills quickly with people who know to book ahead. It ranks on the 50 Top Pizza World list, with a 2025 One to Watch special award to go with it.


  12. Rank 34. Whole Earth

    Thai-Peranakan Vegetarian







  13. Rank 40. NÓMADA

    Contemporary Spanish






  14. Rank 45. Jungle

    Modern Thai Cocktail Bar


  15. Rank 46. FOC Restaurant

    Catalonian Spanish



  16. Rank 48. Olivia

    Catalan


  17. White-gloved service and a dedicated cheese cart signal exactly what kind of evening you're in for at this French fine dining institution tucked into Shaw Centre. Chef Sébastien Lepinoy, who spent nearly two decades with Joël Robuchon before landing here, runs a kitchen that holds three Michelin stars, a Forbes Five Star, and a spot on Asia's 50 Best list. The room is formal but never stiff, the kind of place where the truffle server knows more about truffles than you ever will.



  18. Rank 51. Esquina

    Spanish










  19. Rank 60. Bar-Roque Grill

    Alsatian French








  20. Rank 67. Fiz

    Malaysian


  21. Rank 68. Fleur De Sel Le

    Modern French


  22. Rank 69. Ki Su Shoujin Omakase

    Japanese-French Vegetarian


  23. Rank 70. Sushi Katori

    Edomae Sushi












  24. Marble-effect tiles, upbeat music turned up a notch, and enough kinetic energy to power Chinatown: Fortuna is a pizza trattoria on Craig Road that doesn't pretend to be anything quieter than it is. The dough is well-handled, the crust light enough to hold its toppings without sagging, and the fried options alongside classic and specialty pies give the menu real range. It ranked 33rd on 50 Top Pizza Asia-Pacific.




  25. Rank 84. Fat Prince

    Middle Eastern










  26. Rank 93. Saint Pierre

    Modern French


  27. Rank 94. Waku Ghin

    Contemporary Japanese


  28. Rank 95. Iggy's

    Contemporary French


  29. A cereal box arrives at the table and turns out to be dessert, which tells you most of what you need to know about Labyrinth. This Michelin-starred fine dining room takes hawker-stall nostalgia, bak kut teh and all, and rebuilds it into a theatrical set menu where the props are part of the point. The room runs dark and spare, warmed by wood and Singaporean art. It holds a spot on both Asia's and the World's 50 Best lists.





  30. A four-tonne, dual-cavity wood-fired oven dominates the open kitchen, and the menu shifts almost daily around whatever the fire suits best. This is a counter-dining barbecue restaurant in Dempsey Hill, where Dave Pynt's open-flame technique draws a direct line from his time at Asador Etxebarri. It holds a Michelin star and a spot on the World's 50 Best list. Counter seats face the grill, keeping the heat and the theatre close.
