The Spot - Singapore

Not sure if they changed their head chef or they doing their usual innovative thing, but some things didn't work today Squid was tasty as ever but the veg was difficult to eat with fork and knife Crab bucatini was terrible, no umami, and the Sichuan pepper smell dominated unpleasantly They replaced w lamb, lamb itself was good, tender and good flavour, but the accompaniment were too sweet and none of them worked w the lamb Pan fried seabass was good as ever, eggplants worked and the curry was well seasoned. Only problem was the crispy skin was abit too hard, not the shatteringly crispy kind Chocolate dessert, the banana was good as ever but the chocolate soil texture wasn't right

Everything we ordered was delicious! Our favourite was definitely the crab pancake — we thoroughly enjoyed it. Special thanks to our waitress, Shobana, who was warm, attentive, and gave excellent recommendations. We also really appreciated the kind staff member (whose name I didn't get) who offered me a coat when it got too cold. Compliments to the chef for a truly delectable meal. Fantastic food, thoughtful service — a very memorable experience overall!

The Spot offers a distinctive blend of Southeast Asian inspired cuisine with a contemporary twist, all set within a stylish, ambient space that strikes a fine balance between upscale and inviting. It’s tucked away in Marina One, and while the location is modern and sleek, the experience inside feels far from corporate. The menu is inventive without being pretentious. Every dish I tried felt well thought out. Layers of flavor, excellent use of spices, and confident execution. The smoked butter and bread starter stood out immediately. Simple, but elevated in a way that sets the tone for the meal. Mains had both visual appeal and depth in taste. The team seems to be unafraid of bold combinations, but they don’t overdo it. Flavors are well harmonized. The cocktail menu is another highlight. It’s not just about alcohol, it’s about craftsmanship. Each drink feels like a curated experience with ingredients that play off each other nicely. Even the non alcoholic options were surprisingly good, which isn’t always the case in places that focus on cocktails. Service was attentive and warm without being overbearing. Staff were knowledgeable about the menu and happy to offer suggestions. It’s clear that hospitality is a priority here, not just food and drink.

Amazing! Rose was so nice and always by our side to give us advice. She was patient and so sweet, updating us on the meals and how everything is going. The food is amazing, such a good quality and the taste is another level ! We will definitely come back.

Always enjoy my visits to The Spot be it for drinks only or for food. Good vibes, nice ambience. Food and service are great. Staff are friendly and service efficient. Special shout out to Winnie, who was very attentive and takes initiative to make our dining experience more pleasant. Hiring the right people is indeed more important than training them. I believe that's what makes The Spot such a popular and successful spot! Food recommendation: Cheese Bread, Crabcake, Lobster Pasta, Scallops.

A hidden gem at Marina One, every dish is surprisingly creative! The best is definitely Toothfish Donabe. Will come back for it! You can buy a bottle from 1855 next door and bring here. No corkage fee.

Food portion is small but delicious. Fish was fried to perfection. Cosy environment. Better to make a reservation.

Fantastic taste in all starters we tried (4 of them😄)! Good food texture, good quality wines and friendly service - I recommend this place!
