Food and service is good! Tried their salted egg yolk risotto (new and limited period on the menu), very interesting dish but abit tad too salty for us (which we feedback-ed). Everything else is wonderful, and we love the choco hazel ice cream sandwich! (: their beef is still the best 😀
Great food, friendly service staff and owner who explained the menu, daily specials and made recommendations when we couldn't decide what to have. Steak was tasty and accompanying sauce was well-matched
The place was in a secluded area of waterloo street but the food was awesome and worth the price. The ambiance was great too. would go back again.
Place was easy to find, ordered the angus ribeye. The food was excellent to the level of doneness requested. Price is also very reasonable. Definitely coming back again
Great dining experience. However, the area is really cramped. we ordered 2 mains, 2 entree with one drink and we're hardly able to fit everything on the same table.
Their steak really good as reviews. And server was really good to recommended us to try out their spaghetti. Turns out it didn't disappoint us too. Will definitely go back for their french cuisine.
The ambience was really cosy however the place was a tad too warm to our liking resulting in the place being too stuffy and it also need better ventilation in the restaurant. The food was really superb especially the beef but the seasonings could be tone down as I course literally eat a piece of salt off my food. Also my friend ordered the spaghetti which have really nice sauce and prawn but the spaghetti could use a little more cooking as it was rather hard as thought it was just slightly boiled in water. Overall, the food is affordable for they price paid.
Food: Steak is excellent. Very well cooked to the level of doneness we wanted. Great cooking skills. Truffle fries are v good too. Chocolate banana cake is a little dry for my liking. Ice cream sandwich is flavourful and enjoyable. Self-service ice water is v much appreciated and leaves our wallets free for dessert. Service: Service is fantastic. Orders came fast. We ordered roasted duck fat potatoes without realising it comes with nacho cheese. We can't take cheese and it was very kind of The Betterfield to allow us to return it with no extra cost, even though it was our fault for not reading the menu closely. Thanks to The Betterfield for the kind understanding. Pricing: 200g steak costs $21 only. No additional service charge or GST - thumbs up! Desserts may look a little pricey but after some calculations, I find the price to be comparable to other restaurants who add service charge or GST to their cakes. FYI The Betterfield only accepts AMEX, nets or cash. Location: It is a little hard to find. Tucked at the side of Blk 261. Easier to come in from Queen st. We parked at Bugis+ which gives per entry parking for weekdays after 5pm. Short walk from Bugis+ to The Betterfield. We heard there is HDB parking there though. Must order: Ribeye steak. Considering the price and how well it was cooked, this is really value for money. We would return just for this. Need reservations for peak hour as it was full when we visited.
Food was pleasant and promptly served!(: interesting range of drinks available too.. Service was friendly but set up was quite simple and ambience very casual!
Great food especially the steak which was absolutely delicious! Seating arrangement is bit squeezy, would be good if it was more spacious though otherwise it was fast service.
Love the black truffle mushroom risotto! My friend ate the prawn pasta and find that it's a bit too oily. Truffles fries were okay! Will be back to try other items on the menu!
Beef is dabomb! But food were abit too salty and too much cheese for the cheese fries ): lady who served us was nice tho! (: Reason to return: definitely for the beef
Very good food here! The wagyu was awesome! Staff is also very courteous! Managed to get me a table though I was late for my reservation. Great service and great food compensate for the tiny space.
Good Food at decent prices. I would Love to have a toilet in the shop. Steak was good quality meat, perfectly grilled. In the duck burger i felt it was a tad too much of the thai Sauce.
Forget about ambiance and first class guest service when you step in. This place is all about decent food at ridiculously low prices. Will definitely come down again for the steaks. Now if only they would widening their wine selection...
Food was good for the price we paid. Service staffs were attentive to us. Lovely interior decor. Place was a little hard to find but worth the trip!
Cosy atmosphere in a small shop in Waterloo. Serves awesome steak cooked to perfection! (I ordered medium rare.) The duck fat potatoes were yummy too, but I think the cheese sauce was unnecessary, as it already comes with delicious shredded duck and truffle mayo. Definitely worth a visit!
Ordered Riverine ribeye with foie gras, 600g beef and a crispy duck salad this time. 3rd visit in 3 weeks! Awesome beef as usual, cooked to perfection (medium rare). Salad was delicious, but a tad too strongly flavoured as I had it with steak. Would be awesome if lighter sides were available on the menu (e.g. plain roast potatoes, mashed potatoes). Would pair my steaks with the garden salad next time. Salad veggies were crisp, fresh, and flavourful. Betterfield uses the nicer varieties for their salads. Definitely worth multiple visits! Going to try their pastas and risottos next time! :)
Good service, free flow water and smiles. nice food, fries and steak are recommended. Definitely introducing to more friends. Good gathering place for small group
Steak was good; but order bigger portions to share as the cuts are thicker & juicier then. Truffle fries smell divine but have absolutely no truffle taste & are very salty. Don't eat the desserts, the cake was the driest cake I've tasted in my life. Space is quite cramped.
Cozy ambience in a arty farty setting. Smell of the foods are likely to stick on to your clothes if you don't mind due to the sheer size of the cafe. We ordered steak (medium) with foie gras added, considering the good reviews read before, we were a tad disappointed when both came overdone. More towards well-done. Wine is good. Service is good and reasonable waiting time for food. Was not crowded during the Sunday we went.
Affordable, near MRT and good service. Free water. Most importantly, very nice food especially the steak and sauce - truffle mustard and nacho cheese mayonnaise! I will recommend my friends there!
I would recommend The Betterfield for a simple environment but good food. My steak was amazing, cooked perfectly for medium, melt in your mouth goodness. Unfortunately my son's steak was over-salted but nonetheless, it was tender and succulent. And the price is very reasonable for this quality of steak. Can't say how the rest of the menu is since we all tried steak, but we'll go back again to try the rest. Rating is 4 and not 5 because of the over-salted steak.
Great steak great experience and will be back for more!
The mushroom truffle risotto was awesome with a right balance of both mushroom and truffle. Pulled duck charcoal burger came with fries and salad sides. Duck confit was a tad too salty for us. Our fav was the thai chilli chicken, which packed a "crunch" with the sweet chilli sauce and hints of garlic. Definitely worth the visit!
It's a tiny place, you will smell of food after stepping out. The steak was delicious but a tad too salty. Strange they don't sell red wine given they are famous for their steak.
Food was pretty good. Location was a bit hard to find since it is around a corner. Will probably visit again to try other things on the menu.
Food was decent. Very value for money! loved the steak and fries. space was a little limited though
The food and service is nice. The boss is friendly. Weekdays should be fine. Friday to Sunday might be packed. A place that i will go another time.
good and posh food and ambience and good to have a new vibe which serves goof food and best of all prices are all inclusive!
Food is unique and should try their beef! Abit salty for some of their food (eg. prawn risotto) but it's also another of our favourite dish there ~ The staff are friendly
With the price you are paying for the food, you are getting double the quality. Need I say more?
good food, nett price but i won't say it's much cheaper compared to other cafes. drinks are unfortunately not as good as the food, and the place was a little stuffy.
Food is good and service is of cosy places standard so fun expect 5 start service but it's honest and genuine so that's great on its own.
It was fine. Good value for the price paid. I think it has closed down since but it had a good run, I enjoyed going there
Food was nice. Ambience was good but the Aircon was not strong enough that day. Was perspiring that day and can also noticed some other customers complaining.
Good food and service! Will never forget their truffle fries. Fabulous. Although their location is a little hidden, but it's located in a easy accessible place.
Excellent food, great coffee! I will certainly return for another meal. Just one thing though... Maybe it was because of the crowd that night, but it felt a bit hot in the restaurant despite the aircon being on... Wish it was cooler inside! Other than that, I couldn't fault the place. Impressed!
Good food great service. Was packed but didn't have to wait. Try the risotto if u like them, they're really good
Small restaurant at Waterloo Centre serves great food! Tried the sirloin steak it was delicious! Done to my request of 'medium well' the beef was juicy and succulent. The salad on the side was crisp and the dressing used goes perfectly. If it came with fries or mashed potatoes too, it would be perfect for me! The fries with truffle oil was a hit too, it was gone in minutes! Keep up the good work, chefs!
A quaint cafe located in a unique location! Food was good at reasonable prices, without tax and service charge but the service was excellent! Great place for dates!
Ordered pulled duck burger, truffle mushroom risotto for the mains and thai chilli fried chicken as our entrée. I must admit the food here is really good and worth trying despite the slightly steep price. Hopefully, service can be improved as staff does not seem welcoming.
Well done ribeye Black Angus .. Value for money and young chef has in him ability for better things especially his commitment to quality and great cooking
Cheap and yummy eats. We enjoyed our order of steak and duck fat potatoes. It would have been better if the aircon works a bit better as it was rather warm in the eatery.
I was running late and the betterfield called me to confirm my reservation. Food was really good. I had the angus ribeye. It was tasty af. The ribeye was pre sliced. It was heavenly. 10/10 would come again
remember to make your reservation cause i'm sure that this place would be populated with more customers heading back for their yummy food again!! :D
I booked a table for 4 persons for dinner. The food was marvellous. The atmosphere is really soothing and comfortable too. Overall it is a wonderful experience dining there.
Great food - steaks were grilled perfectly, salmon was fresh, pasta was very delicious (especially mentaiko); reasonable price point; restaurant is quiet on weekends; good for family gatherings
A nice place to hang out with friends - spacious and brightly-lit. The servers were attentive and the food tasted great. Will definitely go again.
positive points; the crab and duck salads were large tasty and and had lots of crab and duck. the steaks (we ordered "silver" rather than gold or bronze) were cooked as ordered, and were tender and juicy. the negatives; the ambience is like a factory canteen. perhaps that is intentional. the service was 'cool' almost aloof. we waited 30 minutes for the salad, and longer for the steaks, the well done steak arrived five minutes before the medium. the steaks were served on cold slates, and were them selves cool. the restaurant is "dry", no alcohol is served there.
