Gordon Grill

Fine dining with great service, lovely facility, and excellent food! It’s pricey which keeps most of the riffraff out — this means you can get a table at the last minute and enjoy a quiet meal with out jostling for position. The staff is adequately trained and do their best to make it a special eventing. The food is a nice fusion of continental and new American and everything taste wonderful. They love to provide table service for everything from the salmon carpaccio to the crepes Suzette. Wine list isn’t too exhaustive but it has what you née. Their steaks are super tinder and done just as you like. Flawless evening that will let you pay the big bill without too much regret.

A quiet, understated restaurant, I’ve found my new favourite restaurant in town. This is a cosy restaurant in beige, both the furnishing and the waiter/​waitresses. The food, like the service, is excellent, unpretentious and of good value. This is a place perfect if you love a quiet evening of good food, no frills, and want to focus on just your food and company.
My first assessment of a restaurant’s quality is the bread basket. I believe if a restaurant puts the effort to serve good warm bread that comes free, it can’t go very wrong. And we polished off the bread. We weren’t even that hungry.
The Caesar salad with anchovies was so unassuming, we were a little disappointed at first glance. But once we started, we couldn’t stop.
The quail was exquisite. Paired with foie gras, and balanced with walnuts and beetroot, it was flavorful and yet not over-​powering. Slightly crispy skin and juicy inside. I ate this 2 weeks ago and I still dream of it.
I was reluctant to order the chicken at first, because well, it’s chicken. Chicken to me is usually a safe choice, can’t go very wrong, but not fantastic either. But Gordon Grill’s grilled farm chicken as brought chicken to a whole new level. Once again, flavorful, juicy, not oily, and brought out the taste of chicken so well. The chicken melted in my mouth. I thought I died and went to chicken heaven.
The grilled pork was pink with perfection.
I can’t go on further without my mouth watering again. Every dish we had was prepared with thought and care, it was evident. This place is as if it stopped in time where quiet dignity and taking pride in preparing a quality filling meal were cherished. I can’t wait to go back there.

Gordon grill is a perennial favorite of mine from the old days. They had a complete revamp some years ago with a new chef Gan Swee Lai. A completely new menu. The set for lunch is affordable at $ 50 and $ 60 for 4 and 5 courses respectively. The food is very good and portions are very generous. A great meal and worth a visit for all occasions.

Gordon Grill is a stalwart of the Singapore dining scene; solid, dependable with comforting with great service and equally great food. We might be occasionally distracted by the new trendy restaurants popping up on the dining scene, but when it comes to deciding on a place where it’s cosy, peaceful and reliable, we head straight for Gordon Grill.
Food: We always look forward to the crispy snack they provide along with the bread basket. I don’t know what it’s called but it’s über yummy! I also really like the bread basket. I’m a huge fan of the chilled angel hair pasta with king crab and caviar. One can opt to have it prepared warm as well, but I prefer the chilled version. The lobster bisque is lovely but the highlight of my meal is naturallement, the grilled ribeye. The Snake River Farm wagyu is one of the best ribeye steaks I’ve had in Singapore (Fat Cow uses the same one we had done charcoal grill style) and they bring it out on the beef trolley to show you the marbling and ask you how much of it you want. Half the fun of having the crepes Suzette is watching it done table side and it’s always done really well.
Ambience: Cosy and peaceful without loud music or loud conversation. It might be fine dining but it’s not overly formal.
Service: One of the best. They make it a point to recognise their customers and their preferences. I approve. All service in Singapore should aspire to their standards.
I make it a point to try and go at least once a month. You should too!
