The Top 100 Restaurants Near Cut Bar and Lounge

  1. Rank 1. Waku Ghin

    Contemporary Japanese


  2. Rank 2. 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.


  3. Rank 3. Saint Pierre

    Modern French


  4. 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.



  5. Rank 6. Marguerite

    Contemporary New American


  6. Rank 7. Cloudstreet

    Sri Lankan Australian


  7. Rank 8. JAAN By Kirk Westaway

    Contemporary British



  8. Rank 10. Mott 32 Singapore

    Contemporary Chinese



  9. Rank 12. NAEUM Restaurant

    Contemporary Korean


  10. Rank 13. 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.



  11. Rank 15. Willow

    Contemporary Japanese



  12. Rank 17. Whitegrass Restaurant

    Contemporary French


  13. Rank 18. 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.


  14. Rank 19. Seroja

    Malaysian

    The name comes from the Malay word for lotus flower and the street where the chef grew up, which sets the tone for what follows. Seroja is a 24-seat fine dining restaurant built around a multi-course menu of Malay Archipelago cooking, with counter seats that put the kitchen on full display. Mangrove wood-charred scallops with laksa leaf sauce are the signature. It holds a Michelin star and sits on Asia's 50 Best Restaurants list.


  15. Rank 20. 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.






  16. Rank 25. Meta

    Modern Korean




  17. Rank 28. VUE

    Contemporary New American











  18. Rank 38. Jungle

    Modern Thai Cocktail Bar


  19. Rank 39. Majestic

    Modern Cantonese


  20. Rank 40. Sospiri

    Southern Italian





  21. Rank 44. Brasserie Astoria

    Swedish French


  22. Rank 45. JAG

    Contemporary French



  23. Rank 47. Lerouy

    Contemporary French



  24. Rank 49. Whole Earth

    Thai-Peranakan Vegetarian







  25. Rank 55. Hayop

    Filipino











  26. 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.


  27. Rank 66. Yì By Jereme Leung

    Contemporary Chinese





  28. Rank 70. Fat Prince

    Middle Eastern





  29. Rank 74. Gunther's

    Contemporary French



  30. Rank 76. Fiz

    Malaysian





  31. Rank 80. Ki Su Shoujin Omakase

    Japanese-French Vegetarian


  32. Rank 81. Fleur De Sel Le

    Modern French














  33. Rank 94. Bar-Roque Grill

    Alsatian French


  34. Rank 95. Iggy's

    Contemporary French


  35. Rank 96. Esquina

    Spanish


  36. Rank 97. Olivia

    Catalan


  37. Rank 98. FOC Restaurant

    Catalonian Spanish


  38. Rank 99. Buona Terra

    Contemporary Italian

    A colonial house on Scotts Road holds one of Singapore's sharper arguments for contemporary Italian cooking, and it holds a Michelin star and a spot on the 50 Top Italy world list to back that up. The dining room reads elegant without trying too hard, and the menu leans on seafood dishes where restraint is the whole point. Dry pasta shows up in several forms, which in this context feels almost defiant.
