Route 65 Bar + Kitchen - #01-434 Suntec City North Wing

Visited on 11th June 2022 evening. Glad to have live band back after so long. All night happy hour for alcohol, with many options of house pour going for $5 each. Had vodka coke and gin tonic. Great price, but couldn't feel the alcohol much. Foord was below average. Ordered Hawaiian Pizza and Truffle Fries. Would however come back again for the affordable alcohol and liveband.

Great live band and singing performances on Friday and weekend evening. Customer can dedicate the songs that they like. Food are slightly ex but above expectations. Definitely worth it with the live band.

Restaurants were full at the mall but good thing there's some available seats when we went here. Carbonara was too soupy but it was good. Pizza is also good.

Tried this restaurant on last weekend because we saw some good recommendations from Google map saying their lunch set C/P value is very high, and indeed the price of 9.9 can get a fulfilling lunch with a cup of drink in suntec city is not easy to get from the restaurants We also tried mala grilled fish... Which is the reason we didn't mark 5 starts for this restaurant as the portion is small and side food is very less.. Another point to mention is there seems to be only one waiter serving the dinning area, so the attendance to the guests including for those who just arrived or who called the needs, usually responding slow

3 stars for food quality and 4 overall due to its value of money set lunches. Wife was asking me to rate at 5 stars, which I initially did but food quality was really just 3.5 stars at most. I have been here 2 times in past 1 month and will come again because of the value sets. Surprisingly, it is not that crowded the 2 times we went there as it has like 25+ tables, easily seating 100 pax (not counting some tables they have outside, alfresco). We were there on Christmas eve and 8 tables were occupied, include ours. They have a physical menu but you have to order online. Food was served pretty fast (hence, unlikely to be made on order from scratch) At $9.90, you get soup, mains and drink. The mushroom soup is made by them and you can still feel the mushroom bits. Mash potatoes are also made in their kitchen and tasted above average, with hints of cheese. The chicken chop and pork chop were nicely seasoned but lacks any charred taste even though they had griddle marks! There was no richness in the sauce though it was just seasoned sufficiently. The meat was not dry and perhaps they use sous vide (best way to have juicy meat consistently) Carbonara pasta was the least favourite of all as it lacks the thickened creaminess though the pasta was almost al dente. As it was not that very crowded, you can stay and enjoy some free time. The kids read their books while I wrote this review. Could have easily stayed longer, having coffee and even perhaps drinks. Oh, they are basically a bar with even a stage for live music.

Used Burpple 1-1, bill came up $25/pax for 6 mains and 2 sides. Australian Beef Ribeye is the only dish that was really pretty good. Tender and juicy steak with black pepper sauce which surprisingly the black pepper is not overpowering like most places are. The mash potato was so so so smooth and creamy!! As much as I enjoyed this, I wont pay $28 full price for it because no charredness and fat rendered. Theres other better steak places at Suntec. But for 1-1 its very value for money. Slipper Lobster Pasta serving was very generous and very filling but nothing special.. abit bland. Please skip the Pork Ribs. So so so tough and dry!!!! Do not order this. Even the sauce and rub cant help the dish. Sides we had calarami and truffle fries - also very average. Probably wont revisit without burpple. Also the condiment containers served with our dishes were chipped and broken, very unpleasant to start the meal.

We came for the lunch special @9.99++. It is amazingly large serving. The mushroom soup is excellent. We ordered the grilled pork chop and the mixed grill with has a piece of grill chicken and grill pork. Could not finish all the meat. The cashier is really friendly. I asked about how to get the HSBC 1 for 1 and he explained very thoroughly.

Service is decent. Fast and prompt. Set lunch is very value for money at $9.90. You get, soup , main and drinks. appetiser is your normal frozen pack and deep fried But taste very decent. Soup tasted very good but the pork chop has a very bad pork stench and I will not recommend. Chicken Chop is very good! Will recommend for work lunch !
