Labyrinth

This was our first time dining at a Michelin-starred restaurant in Singapore, and we’re so glad it was at Labyrinth! We were here to celebrate our 7th wedding anniversary, and the whole lunch experience was truly memorable. We opted for the Chef’s Tasting Menu at $288++/pax, instead of the lunch menu at $208++/pax, and it was well worth it. Every dish was a visual feast, with so much thought and care put into the presentation, ingredients and preparation. The flavours were elevated yet still familiar, and we loved the storytelling behind each course. What really stood out was the attention to detail. I had dietary restrictions, and the team thoughtfully modified the dishes to ensure everything I ate was fully cooked. They also offered me a cushion so I could sit more comfortably. I enjoyed a glass of sparkling tea while my husband had a glass of white wine. The service was warm and attentive throughout, and they even surprised us with a special dessert to celebrate our anniversary. Everything was exceptional, from the food to the service. Thank you for making our 7th anniversary celebration so special. We’ll definitely be back!

Came in 7:17pm for a 7:30pm reservation. Granted we are early . Asked to sit on the side and no water no anything while we wait. Dishes seem to try to preserve or elevate the local Singaporean hawker dishes but most seem mediocre just for the sake of doing it. Shocked to even have Milo for dessert. For that price I would expect at least to be asked “Do you want coffee or tea” at the end of the meal. Very expensive for the quality and portion of the food we get. Appreciate the efforts but the execution missed the bar unfortunately …

Really enjoy the lunch sets, first impression ambience a bit on the dark side but very relax without brightness, yet looks great on photo. I like crispy chicken rice the best with chilli, and Kaya bread brisk like dry honey cake, and all kinds of soups many layers of taste, tiny ice Milo dinosaur was so cute! Without pint flavor will be even better😄 Overall service and food worth the price, thanks to all chef and staff provided us rich experience and sweet memories ❤️

Went for a birthday dinner. Ambience was beautiful and table layout good. Unfortunately the evening got off to a terrible start when I was informed by the waitstaff that the optional +$32 for chili crab needed to be by the table, rather than by the individual. After insisting that he go back and check, he later came saying they will make a “one time exception”. Ridiculous that this is the exception. Fix your menu, not try make your customers feel bad. Food items were in general very disappointing. Nothing tasted bad (except the peas in warm water - see below), but for nearly $400 per person I would expect excellenct ingredients, technique in cooking, innovation in concept as well. Those were lacking. Dessert items were fantastic. I struggle to believe the dessert items were not concocted by a different person. Service: I mentioned a bad start above, but other than that the service in general is good - what you’d expect as a minimum at a 1 Michelin star. A kind lady by the name of Moni was particularly attentive and proactive. She made a huge difference to the experience and without her, this would have been a 2 star rating, not a 3 star. Cocktails: Don’t bother. There were 3 cocktails on the menu - with such limited choice you’d expect them to at least taste good. Better off ordering wine or sticking with water. Food: Tulang: soup was so so. Dumpling was good. Prata: disappointing that this was considered “elevation”. Very normal, as in $2.50 from the prata shop normal. Rotiboy: this was honestly my favorite food course, which is ridiculous given that it’s a rotiboy. Speaks more about the quality of the rest of the food courses than how great this one actually is. Seaweed butter inside is nice. Porridge: not bad. But again - how is this elevated? Century quail egg can maybe get you there in a $100 resto, not a 300-400. Shima aji: flavors not memorable though the aji was fresh and cut nicely - bite was nice. YUBA AND PETIT POIS: THIS IS IN BOLD BECAUSE IT WAS ONE OF THE WORST THINGS IVE HAD IN A RESTAURANT. TASTELESS, BAD TEXTURE, PEAS AND TOFU IN ROOM TEMP WATER. HAD ONE SPOON OF EACH ELEMENT TOGETHER AND LEFT THE REST IN THE BOWL. Mee rebus: Again, very normal. The inclusion of abalone in a dish that doesn’t typically have abalone is I guess supposed to be the “innovation” and “elevation” here. Kinki and somen: I expected the broth to be more impactful, given it’s poured table side. With that said, my review and palate for dishes with broth was ruined completely thanks to the ridiculous peas and tofu in water from earlier. Soft shell crab: +32 a bit steep but not as egregious as the rest of the meal. Conceptually this was fun. Other than the eggs with the crab, the soft shell crab was disappointing - batter a bit soggy and not crispy. Bar the eggs, I’ve had better soft shell crab from Thai Express in the past. The chili crab ice cream was a very bright spot - delicious. Chicken rice. Idk what the chef was thinking by completely destroying the beautiful steamed chicken. This was a golden chance to make the steamed chicken shine with its gelatinous skin texture, juicy cool flesh, but no. Some fake meat tofu tasting thing came out instead. Total missed opportunity. Roast chicken was nice and crispy, sauces were ok. Dessert courses: Lychee and JP white peach: cute and fresh, tasty. Jerusalem artichoke and black truffle: Considering how disappointing the entire meal was, I was extremely surprised with this dessert. ABSOLUTELY DELICIOUS. Perfect in taste, textures, innovation. One of the best desserts I’ve had ever. Kaya toast, kueh banana lu, milo shots, birthday dessert: all good. I enjoyed this. I’m glad the desserts brought the overall meal up.

A truly wonderful experience, discovering the full spectrum of Singaporean street food in a single meal. As Europeans, I was sometimes a little taken aback by the dishes, but the chef managed to make us appreciate some we had preconceived notions about. The service was excellent, worthy of a two-Michelin-starred restaurant! Bravo to the entire team! I think this restaurant will soon achieve two stars! I highly recommend this experience!

Labyrinth was everything I hoped my first Michelin-starred experience in Singapore would be: thoughtful, deeply personal, and unapologetically Singaporean. Came here for my birthday (solo treat yourself!) in March 2026 and left genuinely blown away, not just by the food, but by how much heart was behind the entire experience. The service struck that perfect balance of polished and personable. Every server felt excited to share the story behind each dish, and all the little cards and explanations made the meal feel interactive instead of intimidating. The menu itself was such a fun way to experience Singaporean flavors through a modern lens. The satay course was one of my favorites; familiar flavors but elevated in a way that still respected the soul of the dish. Same with the crab dish, which was incredibly rich and layered without feeling heavy. And the kaya toast dessert/course was such a clever nostalgic finish that somehow still felt fine dining without losing the comfort and charm of the original. Also did the wine pairing, which focused heavily on Asian producers, and that alone made the experience memorable. Had one wine, Molana Rasheh, that was vinified in Armenia and grapes literally smuggled out of Iran. Easily one of the most interesting wine stories I’ve encountered at a restaurant. One of my favorite unexpected moments: I was seated next to some wall decor that turned out to be gifts from Manila’s Toyo Eatery… another Michelin-starred restaurant whose chefs are friends with the team at Labyrinth. I had just been to Toyo a few weeks earlier, so seeing that connection made the experience feel even more personal and special. You can tell Labyrinth isn’t trying to imitate European fine dining standards; it feels proudly rooted in Southeast Asia and tells a uniquely Singaporean story the whole way through. Easily one of the most memorable meals I’ve had.

Labyrinth sets itself up as a refined, modern interpretation of Singaporean street food—but the concept feels blurred and, at times, missing entirely. Part of what made us book was feedback from friends who had visited earlier. Their experience sounded very different: a strong focus on storytelling, with clear connections between each dish and Singapore’s street food culture. That’s exactly what got us excited to go. Unfortunately, that element was largely absent during our visit. The biggest letdown was the lack of a clear connection to Singaporean cuisine. Several dishes leaned more Japanese in style and execution, without a strong narrative tying them back to local street food. For a place built on reinterpretation, that’s a serious gap. We often had to ask what the link was, which interrupts the flow and takes away from the overall experience. Flavor-wise, most dishes were technically sound but lacked impact. They felt flat—missing depth, contrast, and that expressive punch you expect at this level. The chili crab was the exception, bringing boldness and character, but it stood alone in an otherwise muted lineup. The wine pairing had a thoughtful idea behind it—featuring wines made by Asian producers—but it didn’t really connect back to the Singapore street food concept, so it felt conceptually disconnected. There were also execution issues: certain wines were clearly intended to accompany multiple dishes, but pours weren’t managed well, leaving us without the wine when the next course arrived. One of the natural wines, in particular, felt lost in the pairing and didn’t add much to the dishes it was meant to support. Service was polite but lacked the depth and proactivity you’d expect at this level, especially when it comes to explaining the concept and guiding the experience. Given the price point and expectations, Labyrinth falls short. There’s an interesting idea here, but right now it lacks clarity, consistency, and the storytelling that should be at its core.

Great Singaporean-based Michelin Star restaurant to visit for special occasions! I went there as a group of 6 and the dinner experience was amazing! What I liked about this restaurant was that it was small enough to feel not too crowded but the layout was still spacious. Cozy but luxurious vibe certainly helped focus on the dining experience. The food quality was great as well. You get 13 course meal (all small size) but you'd feel full after main dish. Each dish is very unique and distinctive and delicious. Singaporean touch was certainly the best experience. (My personal top choice was Coffee Brioche but all were good.) Wine pairing was also a great choice but certainly raised the total cost.
