The 6 Best Restaurants in Singapore

Discover the best restaurants in Singapore.

Reviewed by our editors · Updated July 2026 · How we rank

Our verdict: Zén is the best restaurant in Singapore right now. Odette runs it closest.

Singapore holds more Michelin stars per square kilometre than almost anywhere on earth, which makes "where should we eat tonight?" a genuinely hard question. This list is our answer for the top end: the tasting-menu rooms that justify their price on the plate, not the postcode.

We weight consistency over buzz. A restaurant earns its place here by delivering the same standard on a wet Tuesday as on opening week - and holds it only as long as that stays true. Expect to book two to four weeks ahead for most of these tables; for the top two, longer.

Restaurants in Singapore - your questions

What is the best fine-dining restaurant in Singapore right now?

Our editors currently rank Odette first: three Michelin stars, Julien Royer's produce-led French cooking, and a level of consistency the rest of the city measures itself against. Book several weeks ahead.

How far ahead should I book a top Singapore restaurant?

Two to four weeks for most rooms on this list. Odette and Burnt Ends release tables in monthly blocks that go within days - set a reminder for the release date rather than hoping for cancellations.

How much does a tasting menu in Singapore cost?

At this level, expect roughly S$250–S$550 per person before wine. Lunch menus at the same kitchens often run 30–40% cheaper and are the smart way to try a three-star room.

Do these restaurants have dress codes?

Smart casual covers all of them - closed shoes, no shorts or singlets for dinner services. None of the rooms on this list requires a jacket.
