10 Exclusive Michelin Restaurants in Singapore
All three of Singapore's three-star restaurants, five of its seven two-stars and two landmark one-stars, each as a full mini-review: chefs, cuisine, location, what diners say, and how to book.
source: OdetteFew cities pack as much culinary excellence into as small a footprint as Singapore. The Michelin Guide's 2025 selection covers 288 establishments; at the top sit rooms that compete with anywhere on earth. Below are the ten most exclusive tables in the city, ranked from the summit down, each with what you need to know before you try to book.
1. Odette (Three MICHELIN Stars)
Named after chef Julien Royer's grandmother, Odette is Singapore's most decorated dining room and one of its hardest reservations. Inside a serene, art-filled space in the National Gallery Singapore, Royer's produce-led French cooking, built on honouring exceptional ingredients from small producers, has held three stars year after year. Tripadvisor travellers regularly call out the precision and sincerity of the cooking; the pigeon and heirloom beetroot dishes have become modern Singapore classics. Reservations typically open about 60 days ahead. Weekday lunch is the slightly easier door in; dinner vanishes first.

The grande dame of Singapore fine dining, Les Amis opened in 1994 and became the benchmark for classical French technique in Asia. Under chef Sébastien Lepinoy the kitchen is uncompromisingly traditional in the best sense: pristine langoustine, sauces mounted tableside, and one of the deepest wine cellars in the region, with a list that runs into the thousands of labels. Michelin inspectors praise the pure French line; regulars return for the cellar as much as the kitchen. This is where you go when you want haute cuisine done absolutely straight, at the highest level.

The Singapore sibling of Björn Frantzén's Stockholm three-star, Zén turns dinner into a three-act performance across three floors of a Bukit Pasoh shophouse: aperitifs and snacks in the lounge, the main procession at the counter-facing kitchen, then dessert and mignardises upstairs. The cooking splices Nordic precision with Japanese ingredients and French richness. With only a couple of dozen guests per service, seats vanish; plan around two months out and treat the multi-floor journey as part of the show.

The 2025 Guide's biggest promotion. Chef Yoshio Sakuta's intimate counter serves an Edomae omakase built on fish flown from Toyosu and rice seasoned with obsessive care. After two years at one star the inspectors moved it up to two. With fewer than a dozen counter seats and two services a night, this is now among the single hardest bookings in Singapore. If you care about sushi, it is worth the effort; book the moment the calendar opens.

Seventy floors above the city, Jaan pairs one of the best dining-room views in Singapore with Kirk Westaway's "Reinventing British" menus: Devon crab, aged beef and garden vegetables treated with fine-dining rigour and real wit. The room looks straight over the Padang and Marina Bay, which makes it the fine-dining seat for Grand Prix week, and the reason it books out the moment race dates are announced. It also sits in the same tower complex that frames Grand Night's skyline story: book dinner, then step into race week with the city at your feet.

Sri Lankan-born chef Rishi Naleendra cooks the most personal food on this list: a tasting menu that folds his heritage, travels and produce obsessions into dishes that belong to no single tradition. The Amoy Street room is relaxed for this level, the service warm rather than starched, and the two stars have held firm year after year. Diners who want a point of view rather than a genre pick Cloudstreet first.

A Singapore institution since 2000, Saint Pierre earned its two stars under Belgian chef Emmanuel Stroobant with refined French cooking threaded with Japanese and Asian accents, served in an intimate room looking across the water to Marina Bay Sands. It is one of the city's most romantic starred tables, and the waterfront location makes it a natural bookend to an evening walk around the bay or a night at the best rooftops in the city.

Chef Mano Thevar's modern Indian tasting menus won a second star by doing something genuinely new: south Indian flavours, Chettinad spice and tandoor smoke rebuilt with contemporary technique into some of the most exciting plates in the city. The Keong Saik shophouse room is sleek and buzzy rather than hushed. Among Singapore's two-stars it is the one your most food-obsessed friend will thank you loudest for.

Burnt Ends proves a Michelin star can smell of woodsmoke. Dave Pynt's open kitchen is built around a four-tonne, dual-cavity oven and custom grills, turning out smoked quail eggs, beef marmite jaffles and dry-aged steaks with theatre you can watch from the counter. Reviews on Google and Tripadvisor consistently flag the energy of the room and the quality of the fire cooking. It is the loudest, most fun starred meal in Singapore, and counter seats are among the most fought-over in the city.

Candlenut made history as the world's first Michelin-starred Peranakan restaurant, and it remains the most meaningful star in Singapore: chef Malcolm Lee elevating the Straits-Chinese cooking of his grandmother, buah keluak, blue swimmer crab curry, kueh, without losing its soul. It is also the most accessible table on this list, which makes it the ideal first step into starred dining in the city and a strong pick when you want heritage with a star, not a European tasting menu.
source: CandlenutBooking strategy for Grand Prix week
Every table above gets harder in early October, when the Singapore Grand Prix fills the city with teams, sponsors and travelling fans. Three rules: book the day reservations open (set a calendar reminder 60 days out), take lunch seats if dinner is gone, and put your name on waitlists, because race-week cancellations happen late. If you are visiting for the race, lock dinner in before you book anything else.
Where the week ends
Singapore's starred dining rooms set the standard for the city's most glamorous week. Grand Night is built to the same standard: an exclusive evening on one of the city's finest rooftops for the founders, investors and innovators who make Grand Prix week what it is.
Star ratings reflect the Michelin Guide Singapore 2025 (announced July 2025) and are reviewed annually. Prices are indicative per person before drinks; confirm menus, pricing and availability with each restaurant.

Frequently asked questions
How many Michelin-starred restaurants does Singapore have?
The Michelin Guide Singapore 2025 lists 42 starred restaurants: 3 with three stars (Les Amis, Odette and Zén), 7 with two stars and 32 with one star, plus 89 Bib Gourmand addresses across 288 establishments in total.
Which Singapore restaurants have three Michelin stars?
Three restaurants hold three stars in the 2025 Guide: Les Amis (classical French on Orchard Road), Odette (modern French inside the National Gallery) and Zén (Franco-Japanese Nordic tasting in Bukit Pasoh).
How far in advance should I book a Michelin restaurant in Singapore?
For the three-stars and small counters like Sushi Sakuta, book as soon as reservations open, typically 30 to 60 days ahead. Around the Singapore Grand Prix in early October, tables often disappear the day they are released.
What does a Michelin meal in Singapore cost?
Roughly S$300 to S$700 per person with pairings at three-star level, S$200 to S$450 at two stars, and S$100 to S$250 at many one-star restaurants. Several rooms offer more accessible weekday lunch menus.
Is there a dress code at Singapore's top restaurants?
Most fine-dining rooms ask for smart casual at minimum: collared shirts and closed shoes for men, no shorts or flip-flops. When in doubt, dress up; nobody has been turned away for looking too sharp.
