The Top 100 Restaurants Near Fancy

  1. Rank 1. Willow

    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. 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.


  4. Rank 4. 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.



  5. Rank 6. Meta

    Modern Korean


  6. Rank 7. Cloudstreet

    Sri Lankan Australian


  7. 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.


  8. Rank 9. Saint Pierre

    Modern French


  9. Rank 10. JAAN By Kirk Westaway

    Contemporary British


  10. Rank 11. Waku Ghin

    Contemporary Japanese



  11. Rank 13. NAEUM Restaurant

    Contemporary Korean



  12. Rank 15. JAG

    Contemporary French


  13. Rank 16. Lerouy

    Contemporary French



  14. Rank 18. Whitegrass Restaurant

    Contemporary French











  15. Rank 28. 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.



  16. Rank 30. 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.




  17. Rank 33. Jungle

    Modern Thai Cocktail Bar



  18. Rank 35. Marguerite

    Contemporary New American












  19. Rank 46. Brasserie Astoria

    Swedish French



  20. Rank 48. Whole Earth

    Thai-Peranakan Vegetarian










  21. Rank 57. Hayop

    Filipino




  22. Rank 60. Mott 32 Singapore

    Contemporary Chinese









  23. 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.



  24. Rank 70. VUE

    Contemporary New American





  25. Rank 74. Fiz

    Malaysian


  26. Rank 75. Sospiri
