Rhubarb Le Restaurant

The decoration of the restaurant is simple and elegant. The good is very fine. The service is excellent. The rhubarb dessert is a treasure. The wine menu is very complete. It was a very nice moment.

Warm and attentive service. Small menu but the 6 savoury dishes our table had were well conceptualised, executed and presented. Fave dishes: the pigeon was beautifully cooked, the jus for the wagyu tenderlion was rich and had depth of flavour.

An amazing night, Rhubarb Le Restaurant lived up to our expectations. The perfect place for a small group with the quiet but intimate atmospheric. The food was matriculates in presentation and flavor.

Such a good dining experience! Really enjoy the French cuisine with my wife for her birthday 🎂. Strongly recommend to all who love western food.

In one word, our experience at Rhubarb Le Restaurant was "grey", like the dominant color of the interior. My wife and I spent a Saturday night at this small restaurant on Duxton Hill. We had the 6-course pre-set menu and a bottle of wine. The food was average for an upscale French restaurant and lacked any "wow" factor. The combination of ingredients was creative, but not a good match in some cases. For example, we did not find that pomegranate is a good partner for pork fillet. The service started well, but seemed to be overwhelmed when the restaurant filled up. The first courses were served at a good rhythm, but the delivery slowed down after the appetizers. We do like our breaks, but 45 minutes wait between courses is a bit too long. When we reminded the waiter that we wanted to go faster, he rushed through the rest of the menu and did not even offer the (optional) cheese platter. We ended up spending 3 hours for the 6 courses, and although the restaurant has only 7 tables, the waiters never had a personal word. The focus seemed to be on other repetitive customers. The wine list is dominated by expensive french wines, but there were a few affordable wines from other geographies. The ambiance at the restaurant could be enhanced with better lighting or simply a candle on the table. Overall, we were disappointed with Rhubarb Le Restaurant.

This restaurant is amazing! I took my husband here for a romantic meal to celebrate his birthday and we were both very impressed. For starters, the setting is exquisite and although the restaurant itself is small, you get a real sense of space as there are only 7 tables. The space is also semi-open with the kitchen which I always like. We decided to go for the tasting menu which was absolutely delicious. There was the just the right combination of classic and more challenging flavour combinations - all of which worked extremely well. The wine selection was great too, with some good, reasonably (for Singapore) priced bottles. The service here was outstanding and the staff were very warm and friendly. We spent a lot of time talking to the Manager Jerome who was very hands on to make sure you were getting the best experience. Our server (I'm afraid I can't remember her name) was also lovely and obviously very knowledgeable about the menu. I thoroughly recommend this restaurant - we've already told our friends that they need to check this place out next time they want to go for a special dinner/treat. Considering the quality of the food, ambience and staff I think this restaurant is very reasonably priced and look forward to having an excuse to go back again! Thank you guys for such a lovely evening.

From the moment we arrived Ellie our waitress and Jerome our host immediately made us feel at home. The ambiance is calm, the decor is simple clean lines with a cool Color palate. Chef Paul and his team proceeded to wow us with the flavors and exquisite presentation. Jerome was very helpful with the wine list, suggested a couple of gorgeous wines and was not pushy at all. Had two very nice glasses of wine with dinner per Jerome's recommendations and was very happy indeed. Chef Paul was not only charming but also had a great sense of humor. He brought a few of our dishes to the table himself which made for a very nice personal touch. Ellie was incredible! Very sweet, knowledgeable and put us both at ease immediately so we surrendered to the experience and went with her suggestion to try le menu. They did not disappoint one bit! The smoked chestnut & mushroom emulsion with black truffle was sublime and the Wagyu simply melted in my mouth. Enough said...our first time and certainly not our last. Thank you Chef Paul, Jerome and the lovely Ellie for making our first time dinning at Rhubarb Le such a memorable experience.

Rhubarb le Restaurant is a small restaurant - only 7 tables and has a rather bland grey interior. We found the wine list lacking - lots of French wines but very little selection of new world wines and limited champagne options. We had a bottle of Gosset champagne - disappointing, wouldn't bother ordering it again. We saw other customers bringing their own wine - an option we weren't aware of any probably what we will do next time we visit. Not a huge menu but the descriptions sounded good. We opted to go a la carte rather than degustation. The food impressed us - was beautifully plated up and tasted fantastic. We had scallops and pork. Rlly for entree - an odd combination but very tasty. Main was Pigeon cooked two ways and the Toothfish with Pea and Mint Purée - both delicious. We shared a dessert - Poached Rhubarb with Rhubarb Sorbet and Vanilla Icecream. Dessert was my least favourite dish of the night - the rhubarb sorbet texture was a bit strange and the ice cream a little sweet for my taste. Notwithstanding that we had an enjoyable night out. Nice touch with the Chef interacting with the diners by serving one of the courses for each table personally. We found the service staff friendly and knowledgeable about the food - something not seen so often in Singapore but in my opinion integral to any good restaurant.

From the moment I entered the restaurant everyone at Rhubarb was very friendly and welcoming. I had read many of the reviews and I was determined to try the food for myself. I decided to go for the Chef's special lunch menu and for the next hour I was treated to a culinary masterclass: 1. Emulsion - Jerusalem artichoke, peas, broad beans, verbena 2. Tuna marinated in Rhubarb 3. Pigeon breast & confit leg, rhubarb & rose puree, grapes ‘a la Aussignac’ 4. Strawberry Fromage blanc, jelly, pistachio, olive oil cake, nata de coco Each dish was explained to me by the helpful staff and the chef even came over to explain one of his new dishes (tuna marinated in rhubarb). Every dish tasted as good as it looked and I left feeling very satisfied. What I liked about it the most - The food and the friendly atmosphere. What I liked about it the least - I wish they had a restaurant in Japan (where I live). Note: This is not really a restaurant for children. Leave them at home with a babysitter and enjoy the time with your loved one!

We have loved Rhubarb in the past, but fear that maybe they are too popular now that they have a Michelin star and the kitchen is overworked. We felt the food was not as well executed as it was before. Salmon cone amuse bouche was excellent. The roast veal was nice but braised veal was hard and disappointing. Smoked hay ice cream was not as delicate- tasted like bacon. Pigeon was good, not great. Lychee jelly sweet was a burst of intense flavor but the dry coconut on the outside was like sawdust. Service was good and attentive but not as warm and personal as in the past. I do hope they can keep up their previously excellent standard despite their new fame. Sad to say we were a bit disappointed this time, but that is also because we had high expectations based on previous meals there. Not sure whether to give them a 4 or a 5. Should have been 6.
