Foods are nice. Atmosphere is good for business and private lunch. Selection of wine is not many, but it is acceptable. I would like to see wider selection for dessert. Overall, it is a nice restaurant.
One of the best grilled beef and lamb I've ever tasted...yum yum !! Great food and nice ambience, PURRFECT ! I will certainly recommend Wakanui to my family and friends. Congratulations and Cheers to the Wakanui boss(es) !
Service was good, beef and lamb were well cooked and succulent. Ambience was good too. Nice surrounding overlooking the river. Overall, nice experience. Can go again.
Good place, good food..the steak is tender and juice. Staff very friendly and attentive. And big thank you for manager and staff which give me a surprise birthday cake. I really appreciate.
Always fantastic dishes and service. This time,farewell dinner for my friend. My friend also love to have dishes here,and we could have a great dinner. My favorite restaurant in Singapore(´͈ ૢᐜ `͈ૢ)
Got a confirmation call an hour before the reservation, smooth service with lots of care for children at a table upstairs, with a romantic river view towards MBSands. 500g rib eye went quickly to stomach also fillet, lamb chops were excellent, can't compare to other restaurants in same price range, even coming with free flow quality bread and butter. Definitely recommendable to any meet eaters, family and romantic people.
Cosy dining, professional service, great food! What's not to love! I was shamefully late for my reservation, but the staff were very accommodating. Looking forward to my next visit already.
I come here twice. Us usual Excellent service and good quality beef steak. I love the lamb chop from the starter menu. I will come again.
The food were already cold when it's served for us. The beef has a lot of sinew. The knife was not sharp enough and it made the taste of beef worse. The volume of the beef which was served doesn't look 1kg. It looked like 500g. It's better to see the whole piece first and serve in front of the us.
Food was good with excellent service provided from start to end. Staff was attentive and accommodative. Time spent was enjoyable and pleasant for a little celebration
Had a great dinner. A little pricy but worth it. Oysters were great. Spring Lamb is good. But their King Salmon (starters) can be missed. Ribeye is beautiful though
Good Food and nice ambience. Fair amount of wine selection. Desserts were nice as well. Service a bit slow during lunch hours. Will recommend for Steak lovers.
lovely texture, aroma lingers in the mouth. worth waiting for the super creation by chef. the medium rare ribeye...distract my concentration even while I work Heavenly made bread too
We had a Caesar salad, soup of the day, full lamb racks & a glass of champagne. The food was great especially the lamb racks. I would say it's a must try. The soup of the day, broccoli soup was passable. Service was reasonable & room for improvement. Not much of ambience due to the renovations just beside the restaurant though the CBD skyscraper proved to be an impressive backdrop.
Fantastic food:) steak and lamb good good good. Service was excellent.... will recommend friends who like steaks and lambs... nice embience.... wll be back again soon
Great Beef! So far, the best compared to the rest in Singapore. Will be back. (Lamb serving - portion rather small ....) The staff at Wakanui - warm and friendly.
We ordered a combination of meats. Each had a different texture and flavour, but all were delicious. The side dishes (spinach, asparagus, fries) were also very good - simple but full of flavour.
Service was poor after I received my starter and waited nearly an hour for the main course. I then paid for my drink and left. Very disappointing. Will not be back.
Although fairly busy, service and attentiveness only average. Disappointing some standard dishes were unavailable - second time this has occurred. Meat quality as expected was excellent though!
The server was very friendly, professional and attentive. He even offered to give my dad a complimentary dessert as a birthday cake since it my dad's birthday. Lamb was superb!.
Upon placing the order, it took more than an hour for our mains to be served. Also, our orders were mixed up. Overall, not quite a satisfactory experience.
It was amazing, best food i had in Singapore ! The tartar was amazing! The lanb was deliciouse andth dessert very suprising! The wine list was perfect
So good! We enjoyed ladiesnight with my friends! Yummy foods and drinks! Location is very nice but we want to seat riverside next time. Thank you.
A serious steakhouse in every sense of the word, Wakanui Grill Dining's menu is a lesson in minimalism; a few salads, a soup, the steaks themselves and then a select range of sides to round up the dinner menu so as not to distract patrons from the main showcase: the steaks themselves. Offering a selection of roughly three different cuts (each ticking off a certain marbling score), the restaurant's other minute offerings are surprisingly anything but an afterthought. The Caesar salad is a well-tossed medley of nicely-rendered bacon, croutons and prime lettuce leaves with finely grated cheese strands and tasty dressing that was not overly inundating but coated each leaf evenly. The steaks are a dream balance between dry-aged perfection and yet optimally juicy yet beefy mouthfeel. Grilling the steaks using Binchotan charcoal from Kishu, Japan must really do wonders for beef which is reared in Kiwi pastures facing the Pacific Ocean and dry-aged to flavoursome goodness, because the steaks arrive just nicely sizzled without the smoky ashy kind of "dirtiness" expected of charcoal grilling. Hint: Pick the ribeye for the best marbling score. At 250g and only $38, the 250g ribeye hits all the right notes for a light but spiffy steak dinner. For dessert, the Pavlova or Hokey Pokey Ice Cream will take you to New Zealand's contemporary tables. The service here is most accommodating; while not a conventional item on the menu, on a separate visit, beef trimmings were served to placate my dining companions and I when we noted that the air-conditioning was not sufficiently cooling due to a mechanical breakdown. On our recent visit, we requested the trimmings and this request was immediately acceded to. Just ask for them. They are like really addictive smoky bacon curls snacks but instead made with beef which has come into the highest-degree contact with the grilling flame during the cooking till they acquire a texture between pastrami and crispy breakfast bacon.
A very good meal quality meal with fine salmon starter, cod fish fillet + mash potatoes, mousse dessert. Very reasonably priced. Great ambience for a business lunch. Attentive waiting staff. Go for it!
Nice restaurant, friendly staff. Upstairs table near windows, relatively quiet. Food was very nice, steak was cooked to our liking. Was disappointed when they said couldn't do a vodka, lime and soda then they had run out of their champagne, but the sauv blanc ended up being quite nice.
It's beside Singapore river.At dinner time ,the cirscumstance is quite nice ,except for a bad whether day. Rum and Beef the taste is also marvelous.
Served some really amazing food. We had the ribeye and it was perfectly grilled. However, service can be improved by quite a notch. Attention to detail fell short - waiter did not ask how we'd like our steak to be done, did not ask if we wanted wine / water. As we were in the outdoor seating, we did struggle quite a bit getting the service staff's attention. However, that being said, the head of service was a lovely gentleman.
good grade of beef and lamb. service staff is professional. wine is reasonable priced. waiting for food is a little longer than expected, however its worth everything.
good meat with good range of wine. Enjoyed environment too. good location. the price was quite reasonable. the best sheet are 2nd floor which is quite good table for 6+ party.
Great service and great food! Bit pricey but you do pay for what you get. Would be nice if there was a credit card promo!
The lamp chop gets the top vote for ny wife and I. The cod fish is quite a dissapointment being dry which could be due to overcooking.
We were having team bonding lunch in Wakanui and all of us ordered 3 courses lunch which started from salad, followed with main dishes(beef burger & steak) and dessert. Personally i find their grilled sirloin steak was nice however we were not asked about how we would like the steak to be cooked, therefore it was a bit too rare for me since i always have medium-well cooked steak. the salad and dessert was nice but the chocolate mousse cake that i had was a bit too sweet.
lovely cosy place. service was wonderful! my second time there everything wad great but steak was a little over cooked for medium rare. will return for sure.
The meat was very tasty. The only thing I was disappointed about was the atmosphere of restaurant. It was a bit of old and dark room. I wanted to sit outside and see marina bay suns but it was under construction right now.
Great ambience, great food, fish and beef are very tender. One room of improvement is for the servers not to laugh and joke around at level 2 where people wanna have a peace of mind eating food.
It was a night out with my husband . The only word i can say is excellent and perfect. My husband was so happy with the food and i am very happy with the food.
Food are great. The service is good. I will surely come back again. 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Prime quality food, accommodates customers request. The only downside I see is that they seem to be bit short on floor people. The place was not extremely crowed yet it took time for them to bring us beer/water etc. hope this gets improved, because I love this place :)
Lamb rack is awesome. The best lamb rack I ever had in Singapore. Staff is friendly too. Overall food quality is good. Good for diners who love lamb and beef. I would not recommend fresh oyster here tho.
Terrible service, had ran out of 5+ things on the menu including their popular oysters and the restaurant was terribly hot. This was once a favourite for my friends and I but we're unlikely to return.
Very good beef for steak. If you want to sit next to the river, you may have to be specific when making reservation. I was lucky as I went there a bit early.
Rock solid steak experience. No gimmicks, just top notch meat. They take reservations and you can set that up on their website. There's not much in the way of beer variety. Everything else was absolutely perfect.
The food is nice and the waiter is very cheerful. You must try the steak and lamp, they are fabulous. I love the place so much that i kept going back.
Almost dishes were very nice. But, some dishes were served after cool down condition. Also steak was not hot. This was very much disapointed us.
Always can have a wonderful time in Wakanui. I think the most delicious lamb and beef dishes in Singapore☆
Great meat, exemplary service, delicious wine, and a seat beside the river. When you keep going back to a restaurant and the experience is consistently great, you know you've found something special. For those looking for a delicious simple meal with great meat and wine, at a reasonable price this is always our top recommendation.
The lamb was better than the steak. Steak was overdone (for all three of our orders). Dessert (lava cake) was overdone so it became cupcake. Service was attentive and efficient.
The spring lamb and rack of lamb were delicious. beef was tender too. nice atmosphere by the river. breezy and cooling in the evening. service by the waiter and waitress were good.
Brilliant food, great service at a reasonable price. We would recommend it to all steak lovers as the quality of ingredients shines through and also one of our party is allergic to dairy and it was perfect for that!
