Best Restaurants Open on Sunday in Singapore 2026

Photo: Google Places. Hero: the Peranakan dining room at Candlenut, Dempsey, Singapore.

Singapore is one of the easier fine-dining cities for a Sunday because so much of its serious cooking sits inside hotels and Dempsey's garden compounds, where the weekend is core trade rather than a night off. The tasting-menu rooms split, though: a cluster of the city's most decorated kitchens, Odette and Les Amis among them, close Sunday entirely. What stays open is a strong band of Michelin-starred and hotel dining rooms that run a full Sunday, from Peranakan heritage cooking to a Marina Bay Sands chophouse. Six confirmed Sunday rooms follow, with exact hours and local prices.

Why a Sunday list matters in Singapore

Singapore's dining map is built around two kinds of room. The independent tasting-menu kitchens, the Amoy Street and CBD rooms that win the stars, often run a Tuesday-to-Saturday week, so Odette and several peers go dark on Sunday. The hotel dining rooms and the Dempsey compounds work the opposite calendar: the weekend is their busiest stretch, so a Sunday lunch or dinner is built into the model. That split is the whole point of a confirmed Sunday list here.

The order below leads with the Michelin-starred rooms that keep a Sunday service, Candlenut and CUT, then the long-running hotel Cantonese, the crossroads tasting room, and the two Japanese destinations. Singapore dollar prices are quoted with the usual plus-plus for service and tax. Hours are checked against each restaurant's published schedule. Every name links to its full review. For the rest of the week, start with the Singapore dining guide.

The Sunday list

1

Candlenut

Peranakan · Dempsey, Singapore · one Michelin star

Sunday hours: Sunday, 12:00–15:00 & 18:00–22:00

Chef Malcolm Lee runs the world's first Michelin-starred Peranakan restaurant from a garden setting at Block 17A Dempsey Road, where his ahma-kase tasting menu moves from kueh pie tee through the slow-cooked buah keluak that defines Straits-Chinese cooking. It keeps a full Sunday, lunch from noon and dinner from six, which makes it the standout heritage booking on a Singapore Sunday. The Dempsey garden room and family-style format make it a Sunday lunch worth lingering over rather than a quick one.

CUT by Wolfgang Puck

Modern steakhouse · Marina Bay Sands, Singapore · one Michelin star

Sunday hours: Sunday, from 18:00 (Early Cut from 17:00, S$95++)

Wolfgang Puck's Singapore chophouse holds a Michelin star at 10 Bayfront Ave in The Shoppes at Marina Bay Sands, the rare steakhouse to earn one. The beef programme runs USDA prime and Japanese Wagyu from Hokkaido and Kagoshima, dry-aged on site. Sunday dinner starts at six, with a S$95++ Early Cut three-course menu from five. The MBS address and the Michelin credential make it the Sunday room for a business dinner that needs the universal language of a great steak.

3

Summer Palace

Cantonese · Orchard, Singapore · one Michelin star · from S$128++

Sunday hours: Sunday, lunch & dinner (daily)

Summer Palace has held a Michelin star across nearly four decades on the third floor of Conrad Singapore Orchard, 1 Cuscaden Rd, one of the city's most polished Cantonese kitchens. The Michelin lunch menu starts around S$128++, with the barbecued meats and dim sum the markers. It opens daily for lunch and dinner, so a Sunday yum cha is a standing option. The Sunday dim-sum service is the one to book; it is a long-running family occasion for Singapore's Cantonese diners.

4

Nouri

Crossroads cooking · Amoy Street, Singapore · from S$168++

Sunday hours: Sunday, lunch & dinner (closed Mon–Tue)

Ivan Brehm's Nouri at 72 Amoy Street traces how ingredients migrate across cultures, a philosophy he calls crossroads cooking, in one of the most intellectually engaging tasting menus in Asia. The afternoon menu runs from S$168++ and dinner from S$238++. It opens Wednesday through Sunday and closes Monday and Tuesday, so Sunday is one of its core services. The Sunday afternoon sitting is the relaxed way in, a long lunch rather than the more formal dinner.

5

Mikuni

Japanese · City Hall, Singapore · kaiseki, teppanyaki, sushi

Sunday hours: Sunday, lunch & dinner (daily)

Keisuke Uno runs three live counters at Mikuni on Level 3 of Fairmont Singapore, 80 Bras Basah Rd: a sushi bar, a teppanyaki counter and a robatayaki grill, with a modern kaiseki menu tying them together. It opens daily for lunch and dinner, Sunday included. Book the teppanyaki seats for the theatre. The hotel setting and the multiple counters make Mikuni the flexible Sunday Japanese booking, equally suited to a quiet two-top or a client lunch.

6

Zuma Singapore

Japanese robata · Orchard, Singapore · $$$$

Sunday hours: Sunday, lunch & dinner (daily)

Zuma's Singapore room sits on Level 5 of Scotts Square, 6 Scotts Road, running the global izakaya formula: a robata grill, a sushi bar and a sake list longer than some menus. It is noisy, expensive and built for a group, open daily for lunch and dinner including Sunday. The Sunday brunch is a long-running CBD-crowd fixture. That energy makes Zuma the Sunday room for a celebratory table rather than a quiet one, best booked for a group with stamina.

How to book a Sunday table in Singapore

Singapore's hotel and Dempsey rooms make a Sunday table easier here than in most Asian capitals, but the marquee Sunday slots still go early through Chope, SevenRooms or each room's own platform. Candlenut's Sunday lunch in the Dempsey garden is the most-requested seat on this list and books out a week ahead, so reserve the moment your date is set. CUT and Summer Palace clear Sunday more readily, which makes either the safe choice to impress a client in Singapore on short notice. For a solo Sunday, the sushi counter at Mikuni is the easiest seat and a strong solo-dining move. Marking an occasion with a group? Zuma's robata room and long brunch suit a Singapore team dinner, while Summer Palace's private rooms handle a multigenerational Sunday yum cha.

Frequently asked questions

Which Michelin restaurants are open on Sunday in Singapore?

Several Michelin-starred rooms keep a Sunday service. Candlenut, the world's first starred Peranakan restaurant at Dempsey, opens Sunday for lunch and dinner; CUT by Wolfgang Puck at Marina Bay Sands opens Sunday evening; and Summer Palace, the one-star Cantonese room at Conrad Orchard, opens daily. Many independent starred rooms, including Odette and Les Amis, close Sunday, which is why a confirmed list is useful here.

Is Candlenut open on Sunday?

Yes. Candlenut at Block 17A Dempsey Road opens Sunday for lunch from noon to 3pm and dinner from 6pm to 10pm. Chef Malcolm Lee's one-Michelin-star Peranakan kitchen serves an ahma-kase tasting menu alongside Straits-Chinese classics such as buah keluak. The Sunday lunch in the Dempsey garden is the most-requested booking, so reserve about a week ahead, particularly for a larger family table that wants the family-style format.

Where can I get a Michelin-starred steak on a Sunday in Singapore?

CUT by Wolfgang Puck at Marina Bay Sands is the answer, one of the rare steakhouses to hold a Michelin star. Sunday dinner starts at 6pm, with a S$95++ Early Cut three-course menu from 5pm. The beef programme runs USDA prime and Japanese Wagyu from Hokkaido and Kagoshima, dry-aged on site. The address and the credential make it the city's strongest Sunday room for a business dinner built around a great steak.

Are many Singapore fine-dining restaurants closed on Sunday?

Yes, a notable cluster of the city's most decorated independent rooms close Sunday, including Odette and Les Amis, because their teams run a Tuesday-to-Saturday week. The rooms that stay open are mostly the hotel dining rooms and the Dempsey compounds, where the weekend is core trade. That divide is the reason a confirmed Sunday list matters in Singapore, where the open and closed rooms do not follow an obvious pattern.

What is the best Sunday lunch in Singapore for a group?

For a celebratory group, Zuma at Scotts Square runs a long Sunday brunch with its robata grill and sushi bar, built for energy and sharing. For a multigenerational family lunch, Summer Palace at Conrad Orchard serves Sunday dim sum from a one-star Cantonese kitchen and keeps private rooms. Candlenut's family-style Peranakan lunch at Dempsey is the third strong option, best booked about a week ahead.
