Aoki Restaurant in Singapore

This place is pretty small and booking especially for the counter is recommended. High class place with quality food. We had seafood set menu. Really delicious. Staff professional.

Food was good, and value for money. The Sashimi rice bowl was really tasty

Excellent quality of food. Taste very authentic. A bit pricey but definitely worth the price!

Fantastic Japanese food. You won't be disappointed!

It was a worth visiting lunch. Menu has a few friendly small sets, for people who want to have sashimi/tempura/grill/only other than a big signature menu.Food was delightful, and we especially liked the grilled cod with clean taste. And I love it that every sets get a salad on the side!Dessert was another hit, my friend said she would love to come even for dessert only. Comparing to the usual Japanese desserts, it is a well designed set that three components gave a full collection of flavours and textures. Jelly looks plain but it melted with a umeshu taste, ice cream had brown sugar flavour, and the mochi was a traditional spring Sakuramochi with a Sakura leave~Service was professional, but only one limitation for the first batch lunch. We have to finish dining in 80 minutes so everything has to be in compact pace.

Great value lunch - chirashi to die for!

Been frequenting Aoki since 2015 - & go whenever I crave for quality Japanese food which is most of the time! I love their lunch sets, which are of good value. Dining may seem a little rush, but still ample time to enjoy your meal.EDIT: my last two visits have been rather disappointing, in particular their mazechirashi. The uni that came with the bowl on my most recent visit was hard and tasted fishy. Also, there is barely any hotate or amaebi found in the bowl anymore. Standard has dropped & it feels like the meals are lacking heart. However, I must commend the service. Although rushed, the manager and waitress (Doris) work hard and fast in order to ensure that dining ends within the stipulated time, which may feel impersonal but they are very caring and genuine. I think the chefs could be nicer to them (especially when they give customer feedback) as I can see that they are trying their best to please customers and their bosses. Keep it up!

My guest and I had a filling and delicious seating. We had the omakase lunch and each dish was refreshing and also generous. What was slightly disappointing was that the staff who served us had little knowledge about the dishes. We expected at least the name of the dish to be shared with us but they were not very familiar with the food.

Part of the les amis chain. What they do well is that their ambience is great, the food is above average though I have tasted better sushi and sashimi. Still no complaints on the quality. The prices are on the high end, therefore comparably the service disappoints slightly.

Good food

Splendid Japanese meal here at Aoki! :) We came here for lunch on a weekend. Ordered teriyaki cod fish, fried scallop, sushi and bento set. All were yummy-ly good!

The food taste good and drinks are delicious. The service is awful and they take forever to bring the food. Also, food comes at separate times. My husband's plate and my daughter's came after everyone else eaten. Then, we order dessert same thing. At last, I ordered a second plate and when they brought the check, I asked for it and they said they forgot to tell me that there was not more salmon or crab :((

Wonderful sushi here. Pictured below is the spider maki. Fresh and subtle taste. Also had the teka maki and it was super fresh. Highly recommend.

The sushi set we had was fresh & food presentation was decent. The service however wasn't up to standard for a fine dining restaurant.

The 1 star rating is purely for the rude attitude of the restaurant staff . Called and made advanced reservation for my wife birthday. The staff who named ?Kim was condescending and repetitively being sarcastic when he jotted down my booking. With such poor attitude I had lost interest to try out their food there. It just not worth the visit

had lunch here on a weekday with a friend. they have a regular menu and a seasonal one. as we weren't that hungry (i.e. not in an omakase state of mind) we ordered the Taian Bento ($98++, photos below) while my friend ordered the Mazechirashi ($42++). Otoshi was $6 per person.food was of great quality, the sashimi was fresh, cod was delish and vegetable tempura was well-made. dessert (sakura-based) was sublime. portion was good and I was full at the end of the meal. ambiance was great (we made reservations and had the counter seats) and the service staff was very attentive.4-star as I think it's relatively overpriced.

Horribly overpriced for mediocre food, and bad service to boot

A meal to remember. Order a wide range of dishes for 4 people to share. What really struck me was the chirashi rice bowl and the assorted premium sushi selection. The chirashi to be honest is really value for money - going at about $40+, it really packs a punch and they aren’t stingy with the portion of fish. The assorted premium sushi was the killer with uni and otoro standing out for me. Highly recommend this place!

Unfortunately inconsistent and underwhelming. Lunch omakase not worth it at $125. The salad has a sauce I couldn't stomach, sashimi is good, soup is tasty, grilled dish is small and nothing special, tempura course was 2 small pieces of sweet potato plus a shiso pepper which is disappointing, sushi course was also hit and miss because the rice was not tasty but the tamago was interesting with a thin caramel brulee on top. The lunch bento sets are much better value, another at my table had the $45 one which was tasty and well presented.

Nice ambience, food is fresh. Reasonable price for lunch and best is I'm not getting just fruits as dessert. Dessert is nice with a combi of jelly, ice cream n mochi, nice way to end the meal. 2 seatings, abit stress though, but its sufficient to complete the decent meal.

Their bara chirashi is always good and the chefs are great to watch. Sit at the bar if you can. Otherwise a booth up top is good for business lunches.

The seasonal Wagyu beef don with truffles is amazing!

This restaurant is the bomb 💣 we celebrated a friends birthday here and each ordered a set, which was SGD200 +++ each and was served over many small courses. We had a small private room partitioned by a side screen so not 💯percent closed off. The service was superb and we decided to bring our own bubbles 🍾🥂, but I must say that the corkage at SGD60.00 per bottle is rather excessive with no offset provided for other beverages ordered! The night was topped off by some amazing 😉 sake that we ordered after our two bottles ran dry. It was super smooth and amazing🎲, all in all a great place to dine, super convenient if not driving with access to Orchard MRT and in an area with plenty of bars to enjoy after dinner.

The additional fees of $12 are really unnecessary but good food though!

Newly renovated so the ambience is great. Lunch Sets are good, I especially love the mazechirashi and the dessert provided. Expect to be turned away with no reservations. Set meals are around S$50.

Great quality edomae-sushi experience in Singapore.

i will never want to recommend this restaurant anymore, inflexible at this juncture and only want to make decent money out of this convid situation ! good luck to u as there are many out there that has close shop. YOU are not the best...don't be too complacement !

Hosted clients at this restaurant. Unfortunately we were not very impressed. Food: found the grilled cod dry, unpleasant fishy and too salty. The grilled eggplant had thick layers of some kind of paste on them which was also too salty. The vegetable tempura was sufficiently crispy but it's selection was quite limited. The three flavours of ice-cream were innovative, especially the tofu ice-cream (soya bean flavour) and sakura. However they were served a quarter melted.My dining partners also had the omakase sets which they found sufficiently tasty.Service: terrible service for a restaurant of this calibre under Les Amis group. Fine dining service it is not. We had to ASK the servers to explain each dish of the omakase courses, because they would deposit the dishes on the tables and then walk away with is looking at the food not knowing what was served. Shouldn't this be part of their routine?

Da bao the Maze Chirashi today. $45+ 7% GST, surprisingly still shiok at home. Will be back for this once in a while to kill the mental stress from CB.They have some specials during CB for takeaway. Suggest to call in to check.

They have 2 different kind of omakase, sushi and mixed omakase. I tried the later one and they are pretty good. They have a long list of good sake.

Had lunch here today. Terrible condescending service staff. Even if the food was good, the experience was completely ruined by the attitude of that one staff that served us today. No matter how young your patrons look, your level of service should remain professional. The staff insinuated that the restaurant was too high class for us several times. Also when we accidentally spilled some green tea, her only concern was if we broke the glass.

The simple looking sushi set was actually done rather well. The pairing of fish/eel and vinegared rice provided a subtle pleasant dining experience which was not expected. Each piece was served at the right temperature, taste and texture except for the tamago which was much too cold. The macha tea was also too strong as it had been steeped for too long. The chirashi don came with beautifully bite-size seafood and vegetables. It was delicious, and would be better had the rice been cooled more. The trio of jelly, mochi and crispy wafer ice cream desserts were a nice combination to end the meal.

Set lunch is about $50~60 for the cheapest set; and its always full house. Food is exquisite and delicious. Place is elegant. Very popular with business folks. Happy with my meal, although a little small in portion for big eaters.

The waiter dropped the grilled fish on the table and looked at me! Went away without saying a thing , came back to us and took the fish away with a chopstick! Next he expected us to be ok with it . Then he came back with another chopstick and waved around the food and took the don away ! Placed it beside the chef and expect to replace the fish with the Don opened up without cover! Came back and expected us to accept it ! What a service from them !

Disappointed

Reliably good sushi

This place is well known for its quality sushi. I had the chirashi at lunch and the fish was top grade and really fatty and oily and even comes with uni. Price is around 40 which is quite affordable for lunch.Their omakse runs into the few hundreds of dollars which I hope to get to try one day.

Aoki has got Japanese cuisine right. With an impeccable selection of the finest Japanese delicacies and excellent service, it is my go-to restaurant for a treat. However, do remember to call in advance to book a seat so that you would not be disappointed!

We made advance reservations for our anniversary dinner but did not make it past the front door! The staff on the phone was curt when taking my booking. They then messed up the timing of the booking once the day before and finally we turned up at the restaurant to find out that the counter seats which we originally booked were now unavailable. The staff were unapologetic and condescending. With the subpar service standards we experienced thus far, we decided it was not worth to patronize this establishment.

This restaurant brings miso soup saying sorry sorry we forgot ah, after all meal, forgetting to bring it earlier. The waitress even forgot to serve tea. I refused to take a dessert as it’s a joke to have dessert together with miso soup. For me this is a lack of respect to each single customer and a gratitude to them and this restaurant takes it for granted that a customer pays 35SGD for their cheapest sushi lunch set.its very sad. Am I too picky? At least I’m not just there to eat food but more for quality time and experience. Cost us still 96 SGD for two.

Lovely place. Great service and always good food. Lunch sets are value for money. Love the sushi or Chirashi set!

Food is good but menu choice limited.

Tried the dinner omakase here - not bad for the price. None of the dishes blew us away but minimum standard was met. Best dish was dessert. Service wasn't great, waitress and manager seemed untrained/inexperienced, but generally still fine. Sake was served lukewarm.

Recently renovated Aoki. The food was fresh and yummy but the portion is quite small, so expect to visit food court to finish your meal.

Top quality Japanese food. Value for money set lunches. But be prepared to pay additional $6-$12 for compulsory cover charge which comes with an appetizer and hot tea. Service was average as they are more prompt in clearing your plates than refilling your tea.

Great Service, good Japanese food. I will go again.

Chirashi is great, go for the set lunch as it's more affordable for a good portion.

Amazing food very original Japanese dish and atmosphere, didn’t put 5 stars because it’s overpriced

Great place for amazingly fresh and good quality sushi. The omakase is good, but very expensive.
