“ I had a very enjoyable experience at Quenino. The food was a nice blend of south East Asian elements. Everything felt harmonious and intentional. I loved that they included what the chefs liked in some of the dishes, it made the experience feel more personal. I also loved that there was some freedom to eat the dish however you wanted. I only wish for there to be 1 more slice of beef since it was so perfectly cooked. Atmosphere was quite relaxing. Music was good and tables were spaced out nicely. Service was attentive, my special request was met, service speed, cutlery change, water top up were all well taken care of. I also love the energy and vibe at Artyzen Hotel in general. Every staff we met was friendly and had a bright smile. If you’re looking for a date night or special occasion spot, look no further! ”

“ I have a very good fine dining experience in Quenino @ Artyzen. The quality of ingredients and culinary technique is paramount. Dishes are typically prepared with meticulous care, often featuring seasonal or rare ingredients. Presentation is artistic, with attention to color, texture, and plating balance. Service in fine dining is discreet yet attentive. Staff are knowledgeable about the menu and wine pairings, often anticipating guests’ needs. The ratio of staff to diners is higher than in casual restaurants, allowing for personalized attention. Will be definitely be there again for their next special menu. ”
“ We were here for dinner and opted for the Discovery Menu. Every dish was delicately prepared, showcasing unique and intriguing flavors that kept us excited throughout the meal. A few highlights for us were the Stone Axe M9 Wagyu, which was perfectly done and paired so well with the 3 different peppers as well as the restaurant’s creative take on “fried rice”, which was both unexpected and delicious. Beyond the food, the beautiful restaurant and inviting ambiance made the evening even more special. If you're looking for a dining experience that’s both refined and innovative, Quenino is definitely worth a visit! ”
“ This restaurant had some of the most amazing dishes ever (Indonesia Mud Crab, Octopus) and one or two that didn't quite hit the mark (Fried rice, Abalone). Hence 4 stars. The service was excellent, and the setting beautiful, but too cold. If definitely recommend going for a special occasion! ”
“ This place is seriously underrated! I went for lunch today (weekday) and there were only three tables occupied, probably mostly guests staying at the Artyzen hotel. Maybe there are not that many people willing to pay fine dining prices for Asian fusion, or the restaurant is still under the radar in terms of publicity. Personally, I thoroughly enjoyed my lunch - every dish was creative and thoughtfully put together. It’s the best modern Southeast Asian fusion I’ve had. My favourite was the green lip abalone starter, the herbal brown butter sauce was beautifully aromatic, with a lovely charred note and not overly sweet. The yellow sauce on the yellowtail kingfish main was also fantastic, as were the various garlic based sauces served with the wagyu. Everything was so well-balanced and full of flavor. And the green chili ice cream was refreshingly unique. You can really tell that every component on each plate was crafted with care and intention by the chefs. The service was also warm and attentive, which made the whole experience more enjoyable. Highly recommended. I’d love to come back when the menu updates. ”
“ Had the pleasure of being invited to Quenino by Victor Liong at Artyzen for a corporate lunch today and was totally enchanted with their Tasting Menu of some of the most exquisite, creative & tasty dishes I have had for while! Located on the 4th floor of the beautiful & lush Artyzen hotel (side note ~ completed in 2023 designed by Ong & Ong architects), we were welcomed warmly into a modern asian style Quenino restaurant by the staff. 2 bite sized amuse bouche (Fried Yam Dumpling & Bany Cucumber) came plated beautifully nestled above dried chilli, corn kernels, oysters shells & lime leaves. The infusion of carmelised lemongrass chilli, kicap manis taste in these 2 petite appetizers kick started our Tasting Menu lunch. The Green Lip Abalone layer with veiled bamboo fungus beneath was tenderly cooked & drizzled over with a delicious angelica herb sauce (inspired by local Yong Tau Fu dish). Next came a XO sauce dip made up of spiced cod roe, tiger prawn was an excellent match with the warm buttery house made flatbread. A refreshing palate cleansing ginger sorbet was served before we moved on to the perfectly grilled Yellowtail Kingfish. The main course of Yugo Crossbreed Wagyu was my favourite! It came with a mixture of colourful garlic sauces ranging from Jungle Garlic, Black Garlic and even an in-house concocted green Garlic Chilli Sauce A pepperish umami rich beef broth (inspired by our local Bak Kut Teh soup) added a nice finish to the meat dish. Finally, it was dessert time and we got our taste of the most unusual - Green Chilli Ice Cream The ice cream was creamy (not spicy) & came with bakkwa bits, pineapple tart style paste rolled into tiny ball, almond flakes. A truly interesting ice cream flavor we must say The lunch then wrapped up with locally inspired Petite Fours and Mignardis. Overall - I truly enjoyed the 1.5 hour Tasting Menu at Quenino. It was a lovely visual, sensory & culinary experience highly recommended for those looking to explore asian inspired flavors Kudos to the Chef/ team for coming up such creative dishes using so many varied asian ingredients ”
