Colony

I went for the buffet dinner and had an excellent experience overall. The food spread was amazing with plenty of delicious options. I went on 30th October so it’s pre Halloween. There were interesting desserts with Halloween-themed. I also enjoyed lobsters. The staff who took care of our table, Mr.Raj and Mr.Saidu, were outstanding. They are very friendly, attentive, and service-minded. They responded to every request promptly and never missed a thing! Thank you for the wonderful experience. I’ll definitely be back again!

I had the best Sunday brunch for my birthday. The service was great—Beng Kuan and Sunny were so friendly and attentive. The food was amazing, with tons of fresh seafood and lots of different options. The setting was beautiful, and the cocktails and champagne were perfect. Highly recommend as an enjoyable way to spend a Sunday afternoon in Singapore.

Beyond a Meal - An Unforgettable Birthday Celebration at Colony! If you are looking for the absolute best buffet experience in Singapore, look no further than Colony. It is my go-to place not just for the incredible food, but for the truly exceptional service. My family celebrated two birthdays with the Saturday buffet dinner on October 18th, and we are still in awe. To make the occasion extra special, we opted for their special birthday culinary offerings, and it was worth every cent. From the moment we arrived, the staff went above and beyond to turn a great dinner into pure magic. A special thank you to service staff Lee Lee, Zhia Chi, and Thanh for their excellent and attentive care throughout our meal. We were deeply touched by the extra mile everyone went to to make us feel personally welcomed. This is why I've been a loyal customer since its days as Greenhouse, and why Colony remains unmatched. The standard buffet feast was spectacular, but the custom dishes we ordered are what made it truly unforgettable! The culinary team created masterpiece after masterpiece for us: · A beautifully crafted premium seafood plate by Chef Hui Jun & Chef Clifton. · An incredible Lobster Thermidor, yummy cheese-baked oysters, and perfectly grilled beef by Chef Jackson, Chef David, and Chef Danial. · A delicious salted egg crab dish by Chef Yong Wei & Chef Chin Seng. · An artistically crafted fruits and mango platter by Chef Wei Yao & Chef Zheng Hao. · Uniquely designed birthday cake platters by Chef Wei Leh, whose magic touch created a stunning surprise for the birthday celebrants. Thank you to the entire Colony team, from the brilliant kitchen staff to the wonderful front-of-house crew. You have created a landmark dining experience in Singapore. We will definitely be back for every future celebration, and we will be proudly recommending you to all our family and friends.

Had the festive seafood buffet, and can’t recommend it enough. Prices are steep but well worth it. We were spoilt for choice - the spread was impressive, and seafood was fresh. The service was impeccable - shoutout to waiters at my table, Vishu, Suren, and Hermon. They were very attentive and prompt in clearing the plates, and wore a smile on their faces throughout. They also checked in on us a few times, making sure we had everything we wanted. If there is one buffet I’d return to, it is Colony’s!

Had a good time at Colony. The spread here was good, the seafood was fresh, loved the sashimi, tuna and the snow crab. The pasta was delicious (especially the risotto)! Loved the laksa as well. They offered fresh juices, coffee, and tea. Wide spread of desserts as well. Good place for family gatherings, would definitely return. But what stood out most was the service - thank you Vishu, Thanh, and Shayol for the excellent service at Colony today :) My family and friends had a good time, thanks for always checking in and for being super attentive to whatever we needed (drinks, utensils, clearing plates). :)

Food was served freshly with a range of varieties too. There were also good service by helpful staffs who were constantly looking out for our needs. Thank you Vishu and team for great service to make the dinner experience memorable! Thankful for their initiative to take photos and capture our moments and memories. Festive ambience was felt too during this end of year Christmas seasons! Will come again with family and friends.

Colony offers a spectacular festive buffet in a beautiful, upscale setting with seven open kitchens—an ideal place for family and friends. The holiday feast is truly incredible, showcasing the best of Singaporean heritage and timeless classics. The must-try festive highlights include rich roasts like the Herb-crusted Lamb Rack, Marmalade-glazed Gammon Ham, and Slow-roasted Turkey, served alongside Jalapeño Cheddar Corn Bread. Crustacean lovers will be thrilled by the generous selection, featuring Grilled Boston Lobster, Freshly Shucked Oysters, Snow Crab, Poached Prawn, and more. We also enjoyed the pasta station for creamy Orecchiette with Sun Dried Tomato Pesto and rich Bucatini Carbonara. The cozy ambiance and attentive staff ensure a delightful experience. Don't forget to visit the Colony Bakery for festive cakes and gourmet roasts perfect for gifting!

Loving the beautiful Christmas decor at Colony! It set such a pretty background for our party balloons and photos etc. The atmosphere is especially wonderful around this time of the year where they always transform into such lovely Christmas wonderland. More importantly, I would like to send my appreciation to the team that had coordinated so well to ensure our birthday dinner went great. They had received my party balloons delivery prior to my arrival, given us the best seat in the restaurant (which provided us a spectacular backdrop for photo-taking) and also given us highly attentive service by clearing our table very promptly throughout the dinner. Very glad to have picked Colony to celebrate my dear friend's special day. Would be one of my top picks for any other celebrations in life!

The free breakfast here is over the top and most excellent. We stayed at the Ritz Carlton and enjoyed the buffet breakfast (included in our room rate) here every morning. Superb, intuitive service all around. That breakfast is probably the very best of all that we ever enjoyed. So many stations, nearly everything cooked to order, from dim sum, Malay and Filipino cuisine to Indonesian and all the Western dishes one could possibly imagine. We were so full every day that we skipped lunch. Love that congee / noodle staiton.

Colony is located within the Ritz Carlton, a greenish looking building around Suntec. The lay out is nice and the service was excellent. Most of the food was nicely made and presented, which is what you'd expect from a fancy $$$$ buffet. That said, the selections seemed rather limited, the layout of the food stations a bit confusing, and the overall value just didn't seem to be there. 10% gratuity is automatically charged to your bill.

Nestled within the embrace of The Ritz-Carlton, Colony gracefully unfolds as an epicurean tapestry, weaving a symphony of flavors that tantalize the palate and captivate the senses. Having garnered rave reviews, securing a reservation here akin to snagging a wishbone during the first bite of a Christmas turkey, bordered on the miraculous. My last-minute serendipity, however, paved the way for an experience as extraordinary as the tales whispered of old. The buffet itself was a symphony of culinary delights. Glistening seafood, nestled on beds of crushed ice, beckoned with their briny allure, while a kaleidoscope of colorful salads promised an explosion of flavors. Plump, jewel-toned cheeses and charcuterie slices of unparalleled finesse awaited alongside steaming baskets of dim sum. For the more adventurous palates, aromatic curries whispered of faraway lands, their spice-laden warmth transporting diners to vibrant Indian bazaars. Those seeking comfort found solace in bowls of freshly prepared pasta, each strand a canvas for vibrant sauces that sang with Italianate passion. A noodle station offered comforting bowls of laksa, the rich coconut broth laced with the fragrant whisper of lemongrass, and steaming bowls of pho, the translucent rice noodles cradling slivers of succulent beef. And then, there was dessert. A veritable fantasia of sugary delights, it was a playground for the inner child. Tarts, glistening like jewels, held secrets of citrus and cream. Chocolate pralines, each a decadent bite, whispered promises of pure, unadulterated bliss. Waffles, crisp and golden, awaited their baptism in a molten river of maple syrup, while onde-onde, those little orbs of chewy rice cake, offered a delightful textural contrast. Cookies, macarons, pandan cake, and a kaleidoscope of other confections transformed the dessert station into a Willy Wonka wonderland for grown-ups. Each bite was a tiny explosion of flavor, a testament to the pastry chef's artistry. Of course, no experience is flawless. The tandoori turkey, while flavorful, did veer towards the drier side, a minor misstep in an otherwise flawless performance. The dessert selection, while impressive, could have boasted a wider variety, as could the hot and seafood items. But these were mere whispers of discontent, quickly drowned out by the resounding chorus of delight that played on my palate. At 88 SGD, or roughly $68 USD, the buffet is an investment. Add taxes and the ever-present nudge of gratuity, and you're looking at a cool 105 SGD, or $79 USD. But for an experience that transcends mere sustenance, that elevates the act of eating to an art form, Colony is worth every penny. And as for the Ritz-Carlton itself, well, let's just say that its understated elegance might not quite live up to the opulent standards of its younger, flashier counterparts. Think of it as a comfortable old shoe, well-worn but undeniably reliable, rather than a pair of sky-high stilettos that might leave you with blisters at the end of the night. In the end, Colony's buffet may not be the undisputed champion of Singapore's smorgasbord scene. That crown, for now, rests on the shimmering head of Rise at Marina Bay Sands. But for a delightful, meticulously crafted, and utterly satisfying culinary journey, Colony stands tall, a testament to the fact that sometimes, the most exquisite experiences are found not in the grandest settings, but in the quiet corners, where passion and artistry weave their magic on a plate.

Food is good and great attentive service. ambiance is beautiful perfect for gatherjng or special occassion

This buffet is an absolute must do experience in Singapore! Not only does it highlight Singaporean cuisine it does a great job with its Western offerings as well. Of two particular things to note are the beautiful decorated atmosphere and the staff. They do an incredible job with the plates and beverages but also the congenial manager and assistant manager who were an absolute delight.

Colony is one the restaurants inside Ritz. They offer buffet lunch/dinner and afternoon tea. I was looking for a place for afternoon tea when we were visiting Singapore. After I saw their menu, this is the one. I made a reservation online and it was easy. The "journey" set included a glass of champagne or cocktail, 6 different savory goodies, unlimited sweets and your choice of tea. The savory items were all very tasty with local twist. They came in good size (not in petite). Our belly were happy and so full. The staff were friendly and the manager also checked on us a couple times. I noticed that they offer limited edition afternoon tea for the season or holiday (lunar new year). Highly recommended!

(4.25) ~ Very good Overall dinner Buffet & service. NOTE: Reservations recommended & Smart casual Dress code enforced. DRINKS: ** Water (tap) = (4) very good, must be filtered;) ** Americano (coffee) = (4) very good * Pineapple Juice = (3.5) good FOOD: ** ALL Desserts = (4.25) Very wide Selection ** ALL SAVORY = (4) very good. My favorite Savory was Butter Chicken w. Plain Naan

This is , supposedly, the number one buffet in Singapore right now. It is located inside the Ritz Carlton. I think it came out to about $70~$80 US Dollars. Make a reservation online in order to get in (do in advance by a few weeks). Seating and Dining Area was beautiful. Definitely a bit more luxurious looking inside than that of any Vegas buffet. There are a few stations. I believe there is a staggered rush, but only turn the tables over only once maybe. The seafood area is the closest and is in the center of the dining area. There are delicious and huge fresh prawns, crawfish, clams, mussels, some small snow crab claws, and some super tasty oysters from Japan. There's then a sushi area that has some pretty tasty salmon sashimi and a few other assorted sushis. This gets super packed with people wanting to try the seafood first. Then there's a "u-shaped" back area behind the seafood that has a "roasted meats stall" that is very decorative, as they have a display case and everything. There's also a pasta station - which makes a pretty good seafood miso carbonara (pretty uniquely tasty). The western area isn't very good imho. The indian station is decent, and someone is making fresh naans. The singaporean/asian area was good -- they have chili crab, which is made with soft shell crab. The noodle station was good , with plenty of tasty prawns in it. The guy working was also super nice. Then there's a dim sum area. Drink wise, there are some juices (nothing special, coming out of a box and poured into the cups), along with some desserts. There's a dessert station near the front which had a lot of good stuff from local kuey to macaroons. Give it a try if you're in SG. A good variety of stuff , high quality, and has a good balance of SG classics and non Singaporean stuff.

Colony is THE place for good quality lunch buffet in Singapore. Yesterday was not my first visit but after all these years, pre pandemic and we are still in a pandemic, the price remained somewhat the same. Personally I find the $64 per pax for a lunch buffet reasonable. So after many visits to Colony, what did I notice? FOOD 4/5 The Chinese section (dim sum) of the buffet remained the same. As in, they were not good. They never improved since my first review here. If those dim sum was the same served at their Chinese restaurant Summer Pavilion, rest assured I would never go there for dim sum. So let's name a few items I had: Fried Fish (The Wok section) - the batter was chewy, the fish was somewhat fishy. That's a no for me. Prawns with veggies (can't remember the name, also The Wok section) - 5/5 love it! The prawns were huge and very fresh. Chicken Radish Soup 5/5 So good!! Tasted like what my mom made in the past. Seafood Ramen 4/5 not bad but where were the seafood? Lucky for the patrons at Colony, i do not eat cold seafood, cooked or uncooked. They were standing in line and looking so pleased. I walked past the seafood section, two thumbs up cos they looked very fresh. Good for those who enjoyed them! Chicken Rice -4/5 Good, they nailed the rice of course and poached chicken was soft and tender. Bread & Butter 5/5 - Onion roll was amazing! The butter was as good as MEGGLE, my personal fav. Dessert (Lychee Rose, Mango Pudding, Tiramisu, Pandan Gula Melaka cake and Green Tea tart) - 5/5 I enjoyed every bit of it. Mango juice was so so good!!! 5/5 What to improve?? Pre pandemic their Western section was so good. In fact, that section was my favorite of all. They did away and set up a Grill & Rotisserie section. I found the items unexciting. Sorry! AMBIANCE 5/5 Always love the ambiance at the Colony!! Lots of natural lighting. SERVICE 5/5 ***** Solid 5 stars!! I never had a bad service at Ritz Carlton. Yesterday was another wonderful service provided by their staffs. Jane, Carmela and Kelly were very nice but the MVP went to Iraj. Iraj was very attentive, polite and friendly from the start to finish. He constantly cleared our used plates, checking in on us throughout the lunch, refilling our water. Iraj is the epitome of top notch service at a 5 star hotel. I took my bestie out for lunch since I have not officially took her out to celebrate her acceptance to Stanford. Iraj brought out a beautiful fruit platter with candle and a piece of chocolate saying "Congratulations!" Many thanks Iraj! Look forward to seeing you the next time I visit Colony!!

One of the best buffets in Singapore, you get an amazing area of dishes across both western Asian cuisines. The service is impeccable, and the ambience is really good as befits a ritz.

Very average dining experience. Not much explanation was given - it's all buffet style with water/tea/coffee served by the waiter(esses). For 48 SGD I almost expected a bit more. The choices are between pancakes, omelette bar, dim sum, chirashi bites, eggs benedict, an assortment of small breads, salad bar, fruits and juices, and a few curries. Not one of my most favorite ritz breakfast experiences, but it works if you don't want to leave the hotel.

This buffet was worth every dollar spent! My wife and I celebrated our 1 year anniversary (and part of our honeymoon) at Colony and it was everything I read about it and more. Buffets are typically unattractive gorge-fest atmospheres filled with gluttony and sloppiness everywhere, but Colony puts a whole new spin on it. The restaurant puts other buffets to shame, adding a major touch of classiness and romanticism to it all. The restaurant is located in the Ritz-Carlton hotel and can easily be found in the lobby. Customers are first greeted by the Patisserie section, with its delectable collection of pastries and desserts, before making their way onto the dining area. After a quick glance, one might even want to skip straight to dessert -- that is, until they lay their eyes on one of the other 6 sections of the buffet. Besides the Patisserie, there's the following sections, which are all connected to one another: ICE BAR - Jumbo shrimp cocktail, snow crab legs, raw oysters, mussels, craw fish, sashimi, sushi, etc. GRILL & ROTISSERIE - Grilled ham, brussels sprouts, mashed potatoes, sausage, squash, kale, etc. STEAM BASKET - Steamed dim sum, buns, ready to made hot pot food, fish balls, noodles, etc. WOK - Chinese/Malay cuisine, such as, steamed fish, chili crab, fried rice, prawns, ribs, vermicelli, etc. TANDOOR - Indian cuisine, such as, various curries, basmati rice, etc. FRUIT STALL - Juices and whole fruits I probably did not come close to naming every single food that was served in each section, but it should give any hungry person an idea prior to walking in. I can't fit a comment here on every single item, but to summarize, the seafood was extremely fresh, the sushi was great for a buffet, the hot foods from the Chinese/Malay/Indian cuisine sections were very tasty. We didn't find a single thing wrong with anything we ate. By far the most attractive section though was the Patisserie. The assortment of pastries and little desserts here and there were fantastic and any dessert lover's dream. It really gave us the opportunity to sample away because they were small enough. Yes, the buffet is $88 per adult for dinners .. and it's totally worth it with the amazing selection and chill atmosphere. Buffets aren't typically thought of as date restaurants, but Colony really redefines what a buffet is. On top of it all, our waiter was excellent. He knew we were here for our honeymoon and even gave us a quick tour of the buffet when we arrived so we wouldn't get lost. The perfect buffet? If it's not, it's damn close to it.

One of my favorite places to bring my friends and family when we want buffet. Excellent fresh food and stellar service. Pre-Covid we can walk around and look at all the wonder food in display. Post Covid is sit down menu buffet. They will bring you all the food requested.

My favorite champagne brunch spot in Singapore! It use to be called the Greenhouse. The same space was renamed Colony, but the all you can drink and eat decadent buffet is pretty much the same. As expected of a champagne brunch in Singapore, it has a full raw bar, plenty of charcuterie, a nice cheese selections, some dim sum, pasta and noodle stations, a roast of some sort, breakfast items, soups, salad bar, and a variety of desserts. You can eat for days, but you only have a few hours to gobble down all this goodness, nevermind the free flow vintaged brut or rose champagne and Bloody Marys. Champagne brunch in Singapore is not a meal, it's an event, so bring an empty stomach and some great friends and prepare to have an amazing time getting stuffed on food and drink!

It's a promising buffet, but like buffets food in general is good, but never excellent. They do offer a good variety of food. Noodle stand, dim sum, Chinese bbq, pizza, burgers, cheese table, sushi, seafood (king crab legs, shrimp, oyster) big dessert area with different chocolates, ice cream and cake. Even nitro infused dessert made on the spot. Last thing a juice bar. It was a bit pricey, but with the selection it's fair. Dining area is good size and service was attentive.

I absolutely loved this buffet. I came here for everyday for breakfast and lunch. I'd say the lunch is more spectacular than the breakfast spread. They have sushi, Singapore food, juices, meats/cheeses, Chinese food, Indian food, a whole bread station, and a beautiful dessert section. Lunch is special because you can get crab legs.

Absolutely loved dining at Colony! I was warmly greeted and shown to my table, and on the way set my eyes on the beautiful buffet. The restaurant itself is tastefully designed and the lay out of the buffet flows nicely. The selection is wonderful and clearly makes sure to incorporate local dishes. Naturally, I sampled as much as I could and was pleasantly surprised to have found everything to be delicious-from experience often not the case in buffet style dining. The steamed salted egg bun, specifically, was phenomenal and is a must try. Every individual I encountered working at Colony was exceedingly friendly, and one of the chefs even posed the steamer baskets so that I could take a nice photo with the salted egg buns. I'll be visiting again on my next trip to Singapore!

The crowd, as expected in a hotel, is all tourists. Sometimes gems can be discovered in unexpected places. Despite the aging Ritz Carlton starting to appear more like an average Marriott than a Ritz, The Colony restaurant inside was a treat both in design and quality. Stepping into this uniquely designed space, there is a sense of surprise and confusion. The confusion arises from the vastly dispersed food selections throughout, making the breakfast appear endless. The dividers, decorated with antiques and imagery of Singapore provide a museum like feel to what would otherwise be a buffet. Selections are very vast, making it difficult to make a decision. Every piece of the meal was amazing, with the exception of one dish, the chicken curry in the Malay section which was not prepared well and the chicken very dry. The service was spectacular and the buffet selections even beat out The St Regis where we spent the last evening in Singapore. Sitting next to the bamboo garden here is very relaxing and the building provides a fair share of natural light. So, don't get discouraged by the otherwise sad looking architecture of this building and the cramped, boring entrance into the property, this restaurant is a must for luxurious breakfast.

This place was excellent, exactly what you would expect from a high quality buffet. It had mainly Malay, Chinese, and Indian food and every bit of it was so delicious. I started off with the laksa which is one of my favorite dishes I have had in Singapore, then transitioned into the heavier foods. They have a great spread of cold cuts, paté, and jamón ibérico, aside a large selection of cheeses to choose from. Their sushi selection is not too extensive but it does have the main crowd favorites: salmon, tuna, yellowtail. They have both sashimi and nigiri, as well as a few simple sushi rolls to choose from. They had a great seafood selection and delicious fresh oysters too! I loved their salted egg chicken wings! They taste exactly like salted egg and are so so good! Very crispy on the outside and bursting with flavor, I wish I had gotten more. They also have a unique selection of bread, the wheat and seaweed ones were my favorite. The desserts were one of my favorite parts of the buffet! There was every kind of pastry imaginable, and you bet your ass I tried them all! Lol my favorites were the Carmel brûlée, truffles, and gelato. But there are so many more I am probably not remembering so be sure to give them all a taste, they are small portions so as long as you pase yourself you should be fine. The service was just as good as the food. Our server was cheetah, I apologize I I spelled that incorrectly. He was very attentive and checked up on us very frequently to clear our plates. This place was a great experience but keep in mind it is very expensive. We ordered all you can drink which was about $40 per person; there were three of us and we totaled over $400. But this was for a special occasion and they even brought out a candle and a plate with not one, but FULL of different pastries to sing me happy birthday!

Great setup for breakfast and dinners, broad range of cuisines, fresh tuna and salmon sashimi, salads, chicken, duck, pork, lamb, beef, fish, prawns, crab, in addition to a range of Indian, Malay and Chinese dishes. The desert range is fantastic, in addition to ice cream and chocolate bars, not bad for $70! Ahi tuna, salmon sashimi is very fresh, braised red snapper is firm yet supple, tandoori chicken spiced just right and the tiny sesame naans are but tasty.

what better way to start 2016 than to write a yelp review for how 2015 ended?!;) this is all about their NYE buffet dinner. oh, what a night! wow, what a spread! with quality festive party favours, beyond just a hat. free flow moët? definitely check! that alone, is worth coming back. service staff deserve extra brownie points for constantly being around and always having a yes, we can, attitude! anticipating your needs, generously topping up your champagne like there's no tomorrow, clearing cutlery and plates that needed to be cleared and not those that you are still working on, lending the young and old a helping hand whenever required, always smiling, making sure you have a great time and genuinely requesting your feedback. food wise, where do you start? if cold seafood is your weakness, you might well be stuck and not try anything but! only inconvenience is the need to use your hands to prise open these succulent treasures. but fear not as individual finger bowls are readily available. and when you had enough of those aphrodisiacal oysters, exploring colony will lead you to greater pleasures! be it local or continental, you will want one and also the other. lobster laksa, chilli crab, tandoori and briyani with a whole lamb displayed, spanish style sucking pig, tomahawk steak, beef wellington, wagyu sliders, bread and cheeses from every country ever. however, do pace yourself as the sweets sanctuary will make sure you and your stomach live happily ever after. lessons learned? drink, don't drive! oh and make sure someone else picks up the tab!! Happy New Year!!!

High-end hotels in Singapore know how to buffet. Colony is at The Ritz Carlton and $88++ for dinner here is a STEAL. What makes Colony unique is that they not only have an impressive western selection, but they have dedicated stalls that specialize in Singaporean cuisine. You can easily get famous dishes such as chicken rice, chilli crab, dim sum, laksa (with lobster!), and Indian food here. Everything is high quality, but if you're a tourist here, I still recommend that you go outside and try all these at their respective restaurants for a more authentic experience. As a resident here, I decided to focus on their western spreads. Of course, I loaded up on all the fancy cheeses and charcuterie. I really enjoyed their roast, along with all the curries in the Indian section. The desserts also had a western focus, with things like cookies, ice cream sundaes, and pies, though they did have some nice kuehs to choose from. Considering the ambiance and price, this is a great place to go for special occasions with the family, or celebrating a milestone birthday or job promotion with friends who are picky!

There are buffets and then there are BUFFETS! The Colony at the Ritz Carlton is a buffet you literally dream about. At some point during the buffet, I literally thought I was stealing. The SGD88 price per person vs. the collection of food offered is simply absurd! First the seafood bar is out of this world. What buffet offers three types of oysters: Canadian, French and Irish so customers can different tasting oysters from sweet to salty to creamy to everything in between. Wow! Obviously, these oysters are air flown from where ever they are located in the world, so don't expect absolute freshness. Nevertheless, it was more than satisfying. Next to the oyster baskets are whole crabs, half cracked lobster claws (the ones you find in Maine), mussels, clams. Honestly, I couldn't contain myself. No where in Singapore can eat 3 whole lobsters and a dozen oysters in one sitting and not break the bank. Other than the seafood bar, there was a sushi/sashimi bar, Indian buffet, Chinese / Singaporean buffet. Other note worthy dishes included: all you can eat Chilli Crab Claws, butter grilled half cut lobster tails, XO fried rice. The Ambience is great, perfect for a Friday night date, and service is impeccable. A must try, indeed!

Christmas "Hope" log cake ($88) - 5 stars Dark Chocolate Ganache, Hazelnut Biscuit, Gianduja Crémeux, Raspberry Mousse, Gelée This was pricey but absolutely delicious! The cake wasn't too sweet and the flavors (chocolate, raspberry and hazelnut) and textures (the silky smooth cremeux, melt-in-your-mouth mousse, and crunchy hazelnut) complemented one another perfectly. Not to mention the fact that the cake was absolutely gorgeous, with gold dust, glittery gold streaks against the sheen of chocolate ganache, and dark chocolate shapes that tasted divine. I couldn't ask for more in a dessert. Best enjoyed at tea time with a cup of black coffee, because I'm usually too full after dinner and wouldn't be able to appreciate it.

In one word "Awesome!" So much variety. So much food. Good quality food. Make a reservation since it was quite well patronised even on a Sunday. There's lobster ball noodles (really it is like a fishball), duck and chicken rice, Northern Indian food and naan and papadam, leg of lamb and the usual suspects etc. Desserts - A wide variety of desserts, ice cream and I especially like the broken chocolate pieces (like La Maison's mendicant but only with nuts). Overall a good meal. Good service too.

After a six-month period renovation, the all-time popular buffet restaurant arm of The Ritz-Carlton Millenia Singapore, opens with a new concept and name called "Colony", which draws inspirations from the rich heritage of Singapore's colonial history. What could be better to relish an authentic afternoon tea experience than having a traditional British style three-tier afternoon tea set here? In fact, decor is a key draw here.I was instantly attracted to the eclectic settings when I stepped in. Adorned on the walls and partitions are old maps, photographs, alongside with vintage black-and-white crockery which I secretly wished I could bring some back home. In line with the concept of the restaurant, there is some local twist to what would otherwise be a strictly English tea. The golden raisins and plan scones, baked in-house, was served with scented Kaya jam, clotted cream and lemon curd, which somehow reminds me of a delicious Kaya toast when I put everything into my mouth. The second deck and third deck feature an assortment of sandwiches and sweet pastries, including a entire slab of peppered foie gras on beef pastrami! Simply too indulgent! But if you jumped to the conclusion that it is the usual mixed of sweets, savouries and scones, then you are wrong. It includes a plate of incredibly fluffy savoury pancake, topped with sour cream and French caviar for that touch of luxe. And when it comes to tea, it's serious business here. Go for the signature brew called Colony Tea, a custom blend of black and white Sumatran tea leaves from Tea Bone Zen Mind that is soothing without any bitter or harsh tang. The most unique aspect is the addition of flavored syrup such as French Rose, Ginger, Lavender, Palm and Cinnamon, Pandan and Pineapple to enhance the tea. They work to tease out the nuances of the tea and create a therapeutic experience as one slowly sips along with the light bites. Available daily except Sundays, this afternoon tea also comes with a glass of Moet & Chandon Brut Imperial Champagne. Indeed, Colony doesn't only set itself apart from other local high tea by virtue of its nostalgic charm, the quality of food and tea are highly accomplished as well. If you favour both substance and style, this would fit the bill.

Easily the highest quality buffet with so many options that I have ever been to. This is the only buffet I have been to on multiple occasions that has been consistently high quality. A bit of dim sum with some Indian curry and some roast duck and some sushi. Top it off with a solid champagne and this place is everything. Desserts are phenomenal and I love that they make sure they have a local twist to most of them. It's a great setting that everyone truly walks away happy. I highly recommend for an excellent Sunday brunch.

Probably one of my favorite buffet spots in the city! Lovely colonial settings, with a wide variety of meats, cheeses, warm charcuterie, desserts! Food's delicious and the drinks are well balanced. I've spent my birthday here, brought friends here and if I could afford the calories I'll be back sooner! Also when you're stuffed, walk about the lobby of the Ritz and admire the whimsical glass creations from Chihuly. I love Chihuly.

I used to like to go to Ritz Carlton's Colony restaurant for its buffet. We went to colony this Monday. The restaurant was not full house though. However we were given a make shift squeezed table of Five by a service staff Nina. At first she refused to change table for us, saying that the table is ok with 5 people and the restaurant was fully booked. We told her to call for the manager,then she agree to change to another proper table for 5 persons. The food in the Colony is getting very boring with declining quality. The Japanese counter sashimi and sushi are the standard offerings with no creativity. The color and presentation of food were not attractive. The worst is at the Chinese counter. The dim sum was terrible with no quality control. The texture of dim sum was either rubbery and the Sui Mai texture was soft and starchy with no prawn and meat texture. The Laksa noodles gravy does not taste like Laksa at all. The gravy was over cooked with a burnt taste. The dessert counter was boring and there were no outstanding desserts at all. Just average quality with variety. I was not even tempted to take any dessert when I pass by the dessert counter. Service was excellent apart from the Host blunder in table assignment. I realized nowadays 6stars hotel like Ritz Carlton, Fullerton, due to their reputation and good business , have ignored their initial brand promise to customers. They are sitting on their laurels because the numbers are good and get carried away with food quality and presentation of food. No use of providing wide variety of food, if as a six star hotel restaurants is unable to deliver a 6star professional attitude towards its operations in quality, presentation and innovation of the food offerings to your customers! I realized the so called 6 star hotel restaurants in Singapore cannot be compared with those in Thailand and Hong Kong! The owners of 6 star hotels needs to shake up the hotel management staff and constantly keep them in checked to deliver the brand promise and commitment to their customers !

This place is spectacular! It will cost you a pretty penny but the seafood is amazing! Oysters, shrimp, prawns, omfg I was in seafood heaven. THAT IS JUST ONE STATION! They also have the famous Singapore Hainan Chicken with rice but you have to ask for it at one of many stations. Just thinking about this place reminds me of the deliciousness.

This is a review for a Sunday buffet brunch at Colony restaurant, main level of the Ritz Carlton. Formerly branded as the Greenhouse, the Ritz has put much thought and effort into reorganizing the buffet areas into a more consolidated and efficient operation. They've also changed the feel of the dining room by adding partition walls that display framed stock photos all with the theme: colonization. The effect of the heavily used partition wall modules is that of a Pottery Barn store. The feel is that all of the framed photos are on display to sell. The only thing missing are the price tags. The Wall Modules break up the large space creating a more intimate dining experience. What is lost is the joy of people watching during the brunch. With the serving stations all moved to a remote (mostly hidden) location at the rear of the restaurant and the partition walls segmenting the space into smaller dining areas, the feel is not as good as the Greenhouse. The wide spectrum of food offerings are enough to please any palette. Local, Indian, Western, Seafood, Cheese, Breads, Desserts, etc. In addition to the free flow champagne, bartenders are on duty to make Bloody Marys and Espresso Martinis. I had several of each and both were delicious. The staff is friendly, well trained and attentive. Champagne glasses were always kept full, empty plates continually cleared, and Bloody Marys and Martinis delivered upon request. The Good: Food Quality, Staff, Ambiance The Bad: I'm not a fan of the maze-like new partition wall modules that detract from the grand architectural space and prefer the more open and spacious feel of the Greenhouse. Hands down, the Greenhouse was a much better brunch experience. The Verdict: Colony is a prime player in the Singapore Sunday Brunch scene. Glad to have visited, but I think I'll wait for the bi-annual "Super Brunch" before returning.

High quality buffet with Ritz-Carlton service: good food, great selection, especially for the Sunday brunch, and pricy.

Food was great, services staff were being really friendly and really helpful with anything we need. My favorite Part of the buffet was talking to the chef. Chef Anthony was being helpful and kind to introduce us to different places to eat in Singapore during our stay at Ritz Carlton. Really enjoyed our dinner on Monday. A few dishes to try, (lobster, Indian food, Chinese cuisine and the seafood.)Enjoy my time and meet some lovely chef and services staff.

This is one of the best hotel buffet i have ever been. Great quality of food. The seafood like oysters shells crab legs are really fresh. Also like the roast beef and India cuisine there. Will definitely come back. Worth the price.

One of the best buffets I've tried in Singapore. They have a wide selection of seafood! Alaskan king crab and the oysters are to die for! They also have a wide variety of meats, cheese and I also love the Chinese herb soup they served! The ambiance was perfect and the service is excellent! We got very good service from Cory, the Assistant Manager. Natalie was the food server who assisted us. Both were superb and made us not only love the food but also love their service. I love it so much that i went back in less than a week that I visited Singapore!
