Yamato Izakaya
Izakaya restaurant
👍👍 A comfortable place without travelling to central! If you live around the area, this can be a regular spot for you.
Food is overall good, staff is attentive enough without constantly walking around to make you feel like you’re being watched and it’s a very comfortable space for you to sit and have...

Menya Kokoro @ Suntec City
Ramen restaurant
👍👍 One of the rare times when I very much preferred the sides compared to the mains, but in no way I am saying the mains are bad at all! I love their potato salad and truffle fries. The potato salad was cold and flavourful, which was refreshing and a great appetiser to start the meal.
It's also intere...

Tomo Tokyo
Japanese restaurant
😠 Came here to celebrate a friend’s birthday. Disappointed with the food and service.
Food:
I think we ordered quite a variety of food for the night since we were in a big group. Did not like the rosti and octopus as they seemed to be too ‘wet’ for my liking. Sashimi was not fresh and other sushi were...

Neon Pigeon
Japanese restaurant
😐 Though the food was tasty, it was really not worth the tiny portions and price (like bone marrow is $26 and its a few teaspoons of marrow).
If you come here I recommend the baby back ribs - very flavorful but oily. And the soft shell crab bao. For dessert I love the bonsai 3.0 🌱.
Don't get the tr...

Okinawan Diner Nirai-Kanai
Izakaya restaurant
👍 We used to go to both their original locations before those closed and they ended up at Great World City. The quality of the food is the same, though the atmosphere isn’t quite what it was. Okinawan food isn’t for everyone (come on, bitter gourd is healthy!) so it comprises about half the menu and t...

Tenkaichi Japanese BBQ @Marina Square
Japanese restaurant
👍👍 After walking around, we decided to have our dinner at Tenkaichi to avoid having to queue. When we walked in, we were surprised by how much bigger the place actually is.
There are 2-3 seating bar-like areas. We were seated at the bbq area and enjoyed watching the chefs grill. There is also a sushi...

Shunjuu Izakaya
Japanese restaurant
👍 Shunjuu is known to be wallet-friendly and also listed under the top 10 izakaya places in SGP that would transport you to Japan!
Meat Bar - My fav dish from there so far. Unique dish served with a raw egg, chicken meat very tender, flavourful and crispy
Chicken tsukune meatballs - packed with flavo...

Uni Gallery by OosterBay
Restaurant
👍 Went on a weekday for celebration, restaurant wasn't pack and we ordered the 5 course omakase which comes with Uni on most dishes.
Personally am not a fan of uni (my wife is) was passing most of the uni to her but she convinced me to give it a try. To my surpise the uni was fresh, big, creamy and fl...

Hakata Japanese Restaurant@NeWest
Restaurant
👍👍 Quite happy with my lunch today. Hidden gem at a corner of West Coast.
Price is value for money for sure.
The sashimi is fresh and tasty, so good that I realised photo wasn’t taken but they were all in my tummy
Beef Udon soup is good and great for kids. Not too flavourful or salty.

Takeshi-San
Izakaya restaurant
👍 Nice atmosphere for catch up with friends. Good categorisation of menu items by price, makes decision making quick when you catch up and food may not be the #1 priority. That said food was decent, staff were helpful and friendly. Had a bottle of sparkling, high balls, beers and sashimi plus oyster....

ku-kai izakaya
Izakaya restaurant
😠 This is the worst Izakaya I have been to; it’s the first and last time I will ever step foot into. I have never been too picky about food quality, but the food here really pushed my limits:
1. The mentaiko tamagoyaki felt like it’s been kept for days,
2. The food and drinks are overly expensive con...

Ishinomaki Grill & Sake
Japanese restaurant
👍 This izakaya x teppanyaki fusion restaurant is quite interesting at first glance. We were walking around looking for a restaurant, and ended up here, after being turned down at a few spots for dinner.
Food is great, service is phenomenal. Was very warmly welcomed by the service staff upon us walkin...

ANJU
Korean restaurant
👍👍 Korean dishes with a modern twist.
Recommended dishes:
Bossam Jim (I.e pork belly) melts into your mouth feels. Very delicious. Comes with pickled sides and lettuce which breaks away from the grease
Mascarpone with black beans: creamy spread with beans on sourdough crackers. Not too heavy but fla...

Tachinomiya Japanese Izakaya & Bar
Japanese restaurant
😐 Came here on a Friday dinner time with a friend, and it was pretty hard to navigate here by foot from MRT and through the HDBs. Interesting concept of an Izakaya in the hood. Despite sitting indoors, it was really, really hot . Probably should take outdoor seating instead. Water is not complimentary...

Thick cut fresh sashimi plate was so great that we almost order a second serving. The 2 main rice set we ordered were both excellent. My beef/pork double set was so to-die...

Himonoya
Izakaya restaurant
👍 Good quality sashimi and tasty seafood. The signature Himono Hokke BBQ fish was yummy. The grilled Himono Squid was a personal favourite. Not rubbery with the right amount of chewiness. The bill came up to about $60 per person.

Yorimichi
Izakaya restaurant
👍 Great spot for drinks and snacks with friends. The space is cool, decor is quirky and music is 💯. The potato salad is pretty good and the skewers are quite good too.
Down side: Service is insanely slow and we waited over an hour for the food to come. I would come back but I wouldn’t hurry.

TORIKIN
Authentic Japanese restaurant
👍👍 Definitely loved all the dishes we ordered! Especially the homemade tofu: the texture is more like creamy pudding, which melts in the mouth; the tofu itself has rich taste of soy bean and cream cheese; the ingredients of soy sauce, seaweed and yuzu perfectly match the tofu. It was soooo nice that we...
