Restaurant Ibid - 18 N Canal Rd

Best dining experience in my life.. Hands down no lie.. Brought my gf here and she was equally amaze by the service and she have been to some premium omakase. The price was also very value for the portion. They dont throw caviar or truffle like most premium restaurants do to boost up their prices, Ibid really let their cooking skills and ingredient choices do all the talking.. The restaurant is a small seating maybe 10ish ppl which allows it to provide an intimate experience for everyone in that dinner seating, and different member of staff would explain the dishes to you in detail and even the cocktail made by chef Leong was detailed explained. Every dish here have different layers to the taste, from the first mouth to the after taste . I really doubt i could get another dining experience as amazing as this and at this price point. I do hope everyone who could afford it give this place a try. My favorite dish of the night was the duck dish where it had crispy skin like Peking duck but meat sweet and tender like a French style duck. As the menu changes often i wouldnt go into detail on every dish.

My very close friend recommend Restaurant Ibid as a must try restaurant in Singapore. I am so glad that I listened to her advice and booked a reservation a month in advance before flying from the UK. ​ In all honesty, the best meal I had in 2021. The experience was unparalleled it brings together innovative and fine dining paired with hospitality like you were chilling at your best friend's home. It cannot get any better! The restaurant is small and intimate, with seats overlooking the chefs making their magic. I felt so at home and Wai Leong is the best host. There were laughs alongside great food. I hope my photos give justice to the amazing meal that I had. Must try and make sure you put it on your list when you visit Singapore!

The hospitality and food at Ibid will make you want to return again and again. Chef Wai Leong and his team are always so welcoming and generous with their guests, we had many good laughs over the course of dinner. Food is amazing and very satisfying portion-wise. Their take on local/familiar flavours like Mapo tofu are very well done and enjoyable, even for someone like me who can’t take too much heat in their dishes. Baguette and brioche toasts are impeccable. They always have me at their desserts — this time their chestnut crème with baba au rhum, coffee and sake lees. Textures and flavours are so well balanced, just incredible. I definitely look forward to returning again when the menu changes!

Chef Woo WL does it again. He never fails to recreate the best of dishes. We are long time customers since he started Restaurant ibid. In the early days a full duck was offered on top of the usual menu. We had to go in a bigger group (at least 4 persons). Now a teaser slice of succulent goodness with signature 5-spice sauce just leaves u begging for more!! Yum ? Fantastic service and conversations too at the chef table. We also noticed each staff is trained to check in with each and every table and try their best to ensure every diner is having a great time. See latest menu on their website to correlate the photos posted pls.

Came here for Valentines Day, tried their Valentines Day Menu, and loved it. It’s a smaller restaurant (only about 7 seatings, 14 people total) which made the food and place feel much more intimate. Chef Wai Leong was extremely friendly and we had a great time conversing with him whilst enjoying the dishes he had prepared for the day. Serving was done at 7:25 pm for all the tables and the meal ended around 10:15 pm. The food was amazing and was Asian inspired, definitely will be coming back when I get the chance! P.S: they have a great wine menu, I’d recommend the Spanish wine we had: Matarromera Crianza 2017

Great food & atmosphere. Funny chefs and staffs that interacting well with patrons. Can see the passions in their eyes. Not an ordinary dining experience. It’s a restaurant with heart and soul. I’m love this place and definitely will visit again… 17 June 2022: Revisit today to try the new menu with friends. 8 months apart, the quality is still there or maybe better. Kudos to team Ibid.?????? Don’t get fooled by the look of the dishes. The simplest and most innocent looking one might give you the most surprises. Note: do try their cocktails. If you are unsure what to drink, let the chef design one for you… ?

Service was warm and friendly, Chef Woo and team took great care of us throughout the night. Love the cocktails specially made by Chef. Food was spectacular especially the Salmon Mi-Cuit and the black rice mochi. The sourdough bread and pineapple tart was amazing too!! We will definitely be back again!

I have been wanting to try this place for a long time and I'm glad I did. The service was amazing and they take time to make small talk. I liked the counter seats because you get to see all the action. Their dinnerware was also really pretty. Food-wise, I liked how it was innovative but delicious and the portions were just right. There was no course I disliked, but the pics were the four that I particularly enjoyed, especially the pineapple tart. :D
