Best Romantic Restaurants in Singapore

February 9, 2014

Now that Valentine’s day is but a week away, I thought I’d share with you some of the best romantic restaurants in Singapore I have dined at that you may want to consider for impressing your Valentine. Of course, there’s no rule that says that one can only celebrate Valentine’s day on February 14, so if I were you, I’d rather still go to one of these romantic restaurants for an early or belated Valentine’s day for a romantic meal out, than to choose a not so suitable restaurant. Always go for the best, that’s my rule. Smile


1. Au Jardin at Singapore Botanic Gardens

Au Jardin Wedding (9)

Restaurant in the heart of the Botanic Gardens, need I say more? Lovely venue for weddings too. This photo was taken at a friend’s wedding in fact. Most importantly, Au Jardin will be closing down come April, so it’s your last chance to savour this romantic place before it’s too late.

2. Absinthe Restaurant Francais

Absinthe Restaurant Francais (2)

My 2nd pick for a good restaurant for Valentine’s day is Absinthe. It’s also a French restaurant, and what can I say, the French do romantic so well! After a great meal here, you can go for an evening stroll by the Singapore River, hand in hand.

3. Pantry at the Stables

Whenever anyone asks me for an affordable romantic restaurant, I almost always tell them to go to Pantry at the Stables. It’s located within a forested area next to the Bukit Timah Saddle Club, and is pretty much pitch dark except for the street lamps once you leave the car park area. What better way to ensure your date stays with you even if you are boring? Open-mouthed smile Helps too that Marmalade Pantry has a huge array of cupcakes, the favourite of many a girl.

4. The Pelican Seafood Bar & Grill

This is probably my favourite Western restaurant for seafood mainly because the seafood here is so fresh, and they have quite a number of interesting seafood dishes such as the cod’s tongue casserole. Lovely decor, ambience and also, the possibility of a riverside stroll after dinner. That’s always a must I think. Oh, absolutely DO NOT forget to order that whoopie pie.

5. Zafferano

Roof level / top floor restaurants are a great option for Valentine’s day for obvious reasons. My favourite roof top restaurant has been Zafferano of late. Absolutely love the steak and burrata here, and their ice creams and desserts are great too.

6. Museo at Quayside Isle

If Valentine’s day dinners are beyond your budget, and I’ll be the first to agree that the prices on this special day are so inflated, you really should start thinking out of the box. I think afternoon tea with your significant other would be a really romantic and cosy way to spend the afternoon! The idea of having a long afternoon over tea, nibbles and conversation, that IS the essence of a romantic meal, don’t you agree? I choose Museo as one of my top picks because of the vibe here. You can cuddle up with your partner if you snag one of these sofa seat tables, and it boasts a great view of the waters at Quayside Isle!

7. Afternoon Tea at a Hotel

St Regis Afternoon Tea

I love afternoon tea and I think I’ve been to all of the best ones in Singapore. Like I said above, conversation over afternoon tea is the perfect way to bond. Plus, the pretty cakes and desserts will help you score points. Here are some of the best places for afternoon tea in Singapore.

St Regis Brasserie Les Saveurs

Ritz Carlton Chihuly Lounge

Shangri La Rose Verandah

GoodWood Park L’Espresso

Regent Hotel Lobby Bar

Fullerton Hotel Courtyard and Fullerton Bay Hotel Landing Point


8. Brasserie Les Saveurs at The St. Regis Singapore

Speaking of Brasserie Les Saveurs, this is also one of my favourite romantic restaurants of all time. Love the chandeliers and the floor to ceiling glass windows. The service here is really exquisite. If you have the moolah, this is the place to go.
