Raffles Sentosa Singapore, the country’s first all-villa resort, sets a new standard of destination dining on Sentosa Island. Nestled within 100,000 square meters of lush tropical gardens, this resort features five distinctive dining venues, each led by chefs holding Michelin credentials along with the renowned Raffles service.

“We’ve crafted every dining moment to be an experience of discovery and delight,” said Bjoern Alexander, Cluster Director of Culinary at Raffles Sentosa Singapore and Sofitel Singapore Sentosa Resort & Spa. “Our aim is to blend the Raffles legacy with contemporary dining excellence, offering guests not only exceptional cuisine but also a personal connection to every meal.”

Guests can enjoy various options, from dining al fresco to afternoon tea, and private meals in their villas, enhancing the art of celebration through exceptional cuisine, warm hospitality, and an unforgettable atmosphere.

A Culinary Journey Rooted in Craft and Connection

At the heart of the culinary offerings is Empire Grill, the resort’s signature modern Italian restaurant led by Chef Bjoern. Influenced by the convivial spirit and rustic warmth of Tuscan cuisine, this venue presents classic dishes with a refined touch, complemented by an excellent selection of premium wines.

Overlooking tranquil pools and tropical gardens, Empire Grill combines vintage charm with modern culinary artistry. Here, wood-fired meats and seafood are flawlessly grilled while select dishes are decadently finished at the table to create a personal and engaging dining experience.

“Empire Grill is about more than just flavor—it’s about connection,” Chef Bjoern emphasized. “We bring theatre back to the table by preparing or finishing dishes right before our guests’ eyes. It’s a personal experience, celebrating the timeless art of hospitality.”

This focus on craftsmanship extends beyond culinary technique, taking into account the careful sourcing of every ingredient. From sustainably caught seafood to herbs grown in the resort’s own gardens, each aspect is selected meticulously, reflecting the resort’s commitment to sustainability.

Timeless Techniques, Refined Flavours

At Royal China, Executive Chef Ling Heng Yao showcases an elegant interpretation of Cantonese cuisine blended with subtle modern elements in a dining setting embraced by nature.

“Cantonese cooking is about balance and restraint,” Chef Ling stated. “I honor tradition while introducing enough creativity to let the ingredients shine.”

Each dish, from delicate dim sum to signature Peking Duck, represents a celebration of depth, balance, and flavor purity, utilizing locally sourced ingredients as much as possible.

An Exclusive Omakase Experience

For a unique culinary experience, IYASAKA by Hashida offers an intimate omakase dining led by celebrated Chef Kenjiro Hashida. This restaurant, inspired by the lively spirit of festive occasions in Japan, focuses on joy, prosperity, and the art of Japanese dining.

With only a dozen seats available, the restaurant creates a personal atmosphere that celebrates culture and craftsmanship, offering guests seasonal delicacies delivered with warmth and hospitality.

In-Villa and Private Dining

As a unique feature of this all-villa resort, private in-villa dining provides an exceptional culinary experience tailored to each guest’s desires, coordinated with the culinary team, sommelier, and personal butler for a truly memorable occasion. Each dining experience is crafted to ensure a remarkable service.
