Best Tasting Menus Under $200 in Singapore 2026
Tasting menus under US$200pp · Singapore · 6 ranked · Updated May 2026
Compiled by the Restaurants for Kings editorial team · Published March 4, 2026 · Updated May 23, 2026
Two hundred US dollars, roughly S$270 at spring 2026 rates, still buys a full Michelin tasting menu in Singapore if you know where to sit down. The headline rooms have pushed past S$400, but a tier of one and two-star kitchens holds the line under S$270 a head before drinks, usually by leading with a shorter lunch or a tight weekday menu. The trade is fewer courses and a set day, never a drop in the cooking. These six, ranked on how much kitchen you get for the money rather than the raw course count, are the Singapore tasting menus that clear the bar under two hundred dollars in 2026.
1.Whitegrass
Takuya Yamada's one-star dinner tasting at S$218, the best Michelin value in town. Book it for a first splurge.
Takuya Yamada cooks a contemporary Australian-French menu at Whitegrass, a one-Michelin-starred room in the CHIJMES complex near City Hall. The full dinner tasting lands at S$218 before drinks, around US$161, which is the cheapest serious one-star dinner in the city by some margin, and lunch opens from S$98.
The cooking leans on Japanese precision and seasonal produce, with delicate cold and warm courses rather than a single fixed signature. The room is small and the heritage chapel setting is among the prettiest in town. It has held its star in recent guides while keeping prices well below its peers. Book a weekday dinner two weeks out and take the full tasting rather than the à la carte, which is where the value sits.
Book direct on the Whitegrass site; the dinner tasting is the value pick.
2.Nouri
Ivan Brehm's cross-cultural cooking, a weekday dinner at S$238 or lunch at S$168. Try it once for the bread and broth.
Ivan Brehm trained at Per Se, Mugaritz and The Fat Duck before opening Nouri on Amoy Street in the Telok Ayer stretch of the CBD, where he cooks what he calls crossroads cuisine, dishes that trace ingredients across cultures rather than sitting in one. It holds one Michelin star.
The four-course lunch runs S$168, around US$124, and the weekday five-course dinner sits at S$238, about US$176, both under the line. The enduring signature is the bread and cultured broth, a deceptively simple opener that has stayed on the menu for years. Book a Wednesday-to-Friday dinner for the cheaper menu, or the lunch for the lowest price, and ask for a counter seat over a table.
Book direct on the Nouri site; the weekday dinner is the value evening.
3.Seroja
Kevin Wong's S$268 Nusantara menu, the Malay Archipelago at one star. Reserve ahead for a regional tasting under $200.
Kevin Wong left a head-chef post at Meta to open Seroja, a one-Michelin-starred room in Duo Galleria near Bugis that is a tribute to the cooking of the Malay Archipelago. The Nusantara tasting menu runs S$268, around US$198, the tightest squeeze on this list but still under the line.
The menu draws on heirloom rice, regional spice pastes and ingredients from across the Nusantara region, with dishes like smoked Patagonian toothfish and a nasi ulam that reframe Malay flavours as fine dining. It earned its star within a couple of guides of opening. The cooking is one of the most distinctive in the city, a regional point of view rather than a French template. Book two weeks ahead and let the kitchen lead on the spice level.
Book direct on the Seroja site; the Nusantara menu is the full experience.
4.Sommer
Lewis Barker's four-course Inspiration menu at S$168, one star at the Sail. Pencil it in for a value-minded date.
Lewis Barker cooks a seasonal modern European menu at Sommer, a one-Michelin-starred, twenty-eight-seat room in The Sail at Marina Bay, on the edge of Raffles Place. His four-course Inspiration menu lands at S$168, around US$124, with a six-course Experience at S$228 and a short lunch from S$68.
The cooking is produce-led European built on a decade in serious kitchens, restrained plating and clear flavours rather than spectacle. It took its star in 2021 and has held it since. The compact room and the Marina Bay address make it a polished, value-minded date or small-celebration option without the headline price. Book the four-course Inspiration for the under-S$170 way in, and take an early sitting for the calmer service.
Book direct on the Sommer site; the four-course Inspiration is the value menu.
5.Labyrinth
LG Han's lunch tasting at S$208 reworks chilli crab and chicken rice. Book lunch for the under-$200 way in.
LG Han reworks hawker and heritage Singaporean dishes as fine dining at Labyrinth, a one-Michelin-starred room on Level 2 of the Esplanade at Marina Centre. The lunch tasting menu is S$208, around US$154, which clears the line; the three-hour dinner tasting at S$298 does not, so lunch is the way in here.
The menu reinterprets local landmarks, a chilli crab course, a chicken rice donabe, an ang ku kueh, all built on Singaporean produce and farmers Han names on the menu. It has held its star while staying one of the most personal kitchens in the city. The bay-facing room is a draw at midday. Book the lunch tasting two weeks out and go hungry, because the savoury run is generous.
Book direct on the Labyrinth site; the lunch tasting is the under-$200 menu.
6.Meta
Sun Kim's two-star lunch at S$248 is the cheapest two-star tasting in Singapore. Reserve a Friday for the upgrade.
Sun Kim runs Meta, a two-Michelin-starred modern restaurant on Mohamed Sultan Road near Robertson Quay that blends Korean accents with European technique. It is the only two-star kitchen on this list, and the way under the line is the lunch, served Friday and Saturday only, at S$248, around US$184.
Dinner runs S$278 to S$328 and sits over the line, so the Friday or Saturday lunch is the move for two-star cooking on a one-star budget. The menus change with the season and lean on premium produce, with refined Korean-inflected courses. Meta was promoted to two stars in 2024 and has held them since. Book the weekend lunch a few weeks out, because the cheaper seats go first.
Book direct on the Meta site; the Friday or Saturday lunch is the value seat.
Avoid if $200 is the cap
Worth it, but well over the line
Odette and Les Amis, on a budget. Odette and Les Amis are Singapore's three-star French rooms and among the best meals in the city, but they run S$400 to S$580 a head, double the cap on this list. Book them for a once-a-year dinner, not for a tasting under two hundred dollars.
Burnt Ends and Born, if you want a fixed price. Burnt Ends sits around S$268 for the set menu and Restaurant Born runs to S$368 for its nine courses. Both are superb and both clear the line, so they belong on a splurge list, not on a hunt for a tasting menu under S$270.
How to book a Singapore tasting menu under $200
Lunch is the single biggest lever here. Whitegrass and Sommer hold a full one-star dinner under the line, but Labyrinth and Meta only clear it at lunch, and Meta's qualifying lunch runs Friday and Saturday only. Nouri's weekday five-course dinner is cheaper than its weekend menu, so the day you book changes the price as much as the room you choose. Most take bookings on their own sites or through Chope two to three weeks out, and the cheaper lunch and weekday seats go before the prime evenings do.
Watch the small print on the bill. The prices on this list are the menu figure before drinks, and almost every room adds a ten percent service charge and nine percent GST on top, so a S$218 tasting becomes roughly S$259, still about US$192 and under the cap, but worth budgeting for. Drinks are where the bill climbs fastest, so a single glass or a by-the-glass pairing keeps a sub-S$270 menu honest. Tell the kitchen about dietary needs when you book, because a set tasting has little room to swap a course on the night.
Frequently asked
What is the cheapest Michelin tasting menu in Singapore?
Whitegrass holds the cheapest serious one-star dinner tasting in Singapore at S$218 a head, around US$161 before drinks, in the CHIJMES complex near City Hall. Sommer matches it with a four-course Inspiration menu at S$168, and Nouri's lunch runs S$168. All three are one-Michelin-starred rooms, so the value is in the price, not a drop in the cooking.
How much do these tasting menus cost with service charge?
The listed prices are the menu figure before drinks, and most rooms add a ten percent service charge plus nine percent GST. So Whitegrass at S$218 lands near S$259 on the bill, about US$192, and Sommer at S$168 lands near S$200. Drinks add the most, so a single glass or a by-the-glass pairing keeps a sub-US$200 menu honest.
Can you get a two-Michelin-star tasting menu under $200 in Singapore?
Yes, at Meta. Chef Sun Kim's two-star room on Mohamed Sultan Road serves a lunch on Friday and Saturday at S$248, around US$184 before drinks, the only two-star tasting in the city under the line. Dinner runs S$278 to S$328 and sits over it, so the weekend lunch is the way to two-star cooking on a one-star budget.
Is Whitegrass worth it?
Yes, Whitegrass is the strongest Michelin value in Singapore, a one-star dinner tasting at S$218 when peers charge S$350 and up. Chef Takuya Yamada cooks a precise Australian-French menu in a pretty heritage-chapel room at CHIJMES. Take the full dinner tasting rather than the à la carte, which is where the value concentrates, and book a weekday two weeks ahead.
Which Singapore restaurants offer the best value tasting menus?
Whitegrass, Sommer and Nouri lead on value, each a one-Michelin-starred room with a tasting under S$240 before drinks. Seroja's S$268 Nusantara menu and Labyrinth's S$208 lunch add distinctive local and regional cooking, and Meta's weekend lunch brings two-star cooking under the line. For the wider map, see the Singapore dining guide.
Do I need to book these tasting menus in advance?
Yes, book two to three weeks ahead, especially for the cheaper lunch and weekday seats, which sell before prime evenings. Whitegrass, Sommer, Nouri, Seroja, Labyrinth and Meta all take reservations on their own sites or through Chope. The qualifying menus, Meta's weekend lunch and Labyrinth's lunch tasting, run on set days, so check the day before you set the date.
