The Patio is pleasantly tucked away in a quiet corner of northern Sembawang, offering a peaceful escape from the city. Located on Level 2, the restaurant enjoys a lovely sea view and a relaxed, breezy atmosphere. The menu is well-rounded, catering to diners of all ages. The Thai basil chicken was juicy with a satisfying kick of spice. The classic burger was cooked just right, with a hint of pink at the centre and a generous serving of fries. The highlight of the meal, however, was the satay, grilled prawns, and sambal stingray platter priced at $65 — excellent value in our view. The satays were well-grilled and flavorful, the prawns were sizeable, deshelled, and perfectly cooked, while the sambal stingray was thick, meaty, and generously coated with chilli. The sambal sotong was more average, slightly on the chewy side. Paired with a cold beer, the meal came together beautifully. Our total bill was around $145. The restaurant itself is small and cozy, with limited seating and both indoor and outdoor options. Only two outdoor tables offer unobstructed sea views, so reservations are highly recommended. On a breezy evening, the pet-friendly setting, good food, and relaxed ambience made for a very enjoyable family dining experience. Do note that the location is quite secluded, with limited access to public transport — but that’s part of its charm. We’re happy to recommend The Patio and look forward to returning.
