Singapore isn't called the food capital of Asia for nothing. From casual eateries to fine-dining spots that dazzle the Michelin inspectors, this city sure knows how to eat well. Beyond local and familiar Singaporean flavours, our dining scene offers a range of cuisines, from spicy African stews to smoky South American grills, refined Japanese omakase experiences and even elegant Scandinavian plates.
Here at Time Out Singapore, we take eating seriously. Our team has scoured the island for the best and most exciting restaurants this year, and here are all the spots we're confident to vouch for in 2025. And because there's simply too much good food to cram into one list, we'll also be rolling out separate lists for our top hawkers, cafés and bars, so stay hungry and stay tuned.
Without further ado, here are Time Out Singapore's recommended restaurants for 2025, all tried, tasted and approved by us – and hopefully by you, too:
