Singapore Garden in Camden - Phone Number, Reservations, Reviews

Picked by one of my cousins we were a table of 8 adults and 4 kids 🙈. I would summarise by saying the food, service and ambience were excellent. The kids started getting a bit irritated by 10 but the staff managed our table very well. I even had some food parcelled as a take away😀

Very disappointed with overall customer service. We had booked a table for 4 at 7pm … reached there at 6.50 and the excuses started … from that I had booked for 6pm & now would be able to have a table for only an hour… then the story changed to that they had called me and I changed the time from 7pm to 6pm…. Well I had had no call all day or had been sent a text as was promised 2 days prior when I had requested an email… personally , they have lost a loyal customer… just because of the lies !!!

Flavours packed a punch. Spare ribs and chilli crab were delicious. Food was filling and good value.

We recently dined at Singapore Garden and thoroughly enjoyed our meal. We ordered the Beef in Black Bean Sauce, Sweet and Sour Chicken with Vegetables and Pineapple, and Egg Noodles with Beansprouts and Spring Onions and steamed rice. The portions were generous, and each dish was incredibly tasty, showcasing authentic Singaporean flavors. The only reason for not giving a full 5 stars is that the staff could be a bit more attentive with tasks like topping up our pot of tea and clearing the table. Other than that, we highly recommend Singapore Garden for its delicious dishes and satisfying portions.

We have always been used to a very high standard of both service and food at this very popular restaurant. However, on Saturday night when we went with friends who hadn’t been for a very long time, we were very disappointed, firstly because the hors d’oeuvres were served lukewarm we ordered a Hianese chicken/rice dish which was in edible.. The chicken looked like it had been boiled and it was very unappetising. When we told them we didn’t like it, we then order chicken with cashew nuts which was also very average, and frankly sport the overall experience. Given the price of £50 per head we expected much better quality food and I do hope this is not a sign of things to come.

Having eaten at this restaurant many times with friends - decided to order take away - no comparison

This is without a doubt the best Singapore restaurant in London. I have been eating here and prior in their previous restaurant in Marylebone lane since 1978. The food is amazing and the service is second to none. If you wish to have a meal to remember and a special place to go to impress this is the place for you. Its a definite ***** 5 Star From Me.

Situated on Fairfax Road near the roundabout. Parking available outside & in surrounding area Good atmosphere with friendly helpful staff. Great varied menu, 3 set menu meals and specials of the day. Really delicious, well presented food, served by attentive waiters & waitresses. Can't wait for my next visit Cannesdid .... surfings syd

BEEF RENDANG FROM INDONESIA NO SINGAPORE OR MALAYSIA!!!

Amazing restaurant with amazing and efficient staff. Food was authentic with a vast array of options. Definitely recommended.

Excellent Food! The Singapore chili crab is one of my favorites!

Food is very good and decent size portions too.

Food absolutely amazing (takeout) Best Asian food I have had for a while. Well done Singapore garden keep it up.

The crab with Singaporean chilli sauce was delicious, but very messy so they provide plastic gloves and crab shell crushers. Probably the best crab I’ve ever had in London. Cost about £40 which was plenty for two people Fried beef ho fun and roti canai also great. Service was also really efficient and friendly. No complaints.

Ate again here on 28.05.24 and the meal was even better than last time. The service was a notch friendlier and the food was again stunning - in particular the Hainanese chicken rice, lemon chicken and aromatic duck. A near-perfect experience.

Is the best of the best . Will be back again and again and again. Thank you 😊

Portions became smaller and prices went up but the service is still great.

Singapore Chilli Crab had no Chilli! Laksa had no spice at all. Very bland food. Very disappointing. Won't be back.

Simply the best , their Malaysian curry is delicious and the roast duck is the best I have tried in London

Overpriced mediocre Chinese restaurant. Despite the name, this is by all other appearances a Chinese restaurant that offers some Singaporean / Malaysian dishes. I ordered a Malaysian fish curry and it was bland. It cost £21 for tiny slivers of fish in a watery curry sauce. If you’re looking for good Singaporean/Malaysian, go elsewhere. I won’t be returning.

Service very slow. Our meals came out at different times and it was a quiet evening. Waiters were not friendly, one even had a Covid mask on. Surly. Mean faced. WTF?? Food is ok (let’s not talk about the MSG they sprinkle on the food at the pass- someone close to me who worked there told me about this. That’s why you are always thirsty after a meal here). Not worth the money. Avoid.

A great restaurant with always great quality food and service

Service was awesome. Very helpful as well

An early dinner is best as the restaurant was rapidly filling at 7pm. Comfortable seating well spaced. A long list of cocktails from which the traditional Singapore Gin Sling was almost as good as the one enjoyed at Raffles. Prompt attention to order and delivery of our first course of prawns, garlic and green beans. Their version of chilli crab was large, tasty and great value. Plastic gloves helped keep us tidy. The aubergine in yellow bean sauce was heavenly. Singah beer was the perfect beverage. We had just enough room to share banana fritters and vanilla ice cream.

Great food, excellent taste, good price / performance ratio

Very unprofessional stuff rude I can’t believe it lady was shouting on a dalivaroo rider like she own the guy

Very rude and disrespectful people omg I can’t believe it very rude

What a place! Really enjoyed the food, the variety is excellent. And the service was first class, thank you Leslie and Anna. We had a lovely evening as a family

I had not been here for 15 years. it has not improved. We arrived at 9pm to be greeted by 'the kitchen closes in 30 minutes' followed five minutes later by 'the kitchen closes in 20 minutes'. We had not had time to place an order. I ordered Tom Yum soup which is a Thai dish. It should be clear with different fish, small shrimp and spices an vegetables instead it was a tomato based soup bearing little resemblance with 3 large frozen shrimp. We ordered sizzling lamb in Peking sauce. the sauce was largely tomato ketchup and very disagreeable. We left half. The egg fried rice was barely fried and grossly over cooked. The Singapore noodles bore no relationship to the real dish. the noodles were bland, unspiced no flavour at all, no mini shrimp, chicken, vegetables, curry or anything - totally bland. The only edible dish was steamed bean sprouts and onion which were hard to ruin. in all a thoroughly sub standard meal and neither of us will be back. The restaurant is modern, spacious and comfortable. It is pricey for what it offers.

Happy to keep coming back here. Food is as good as one can expect. Staff are courteous and helpful. Not cheap but you get what you pay for.

Great food. Very friendly staff. Very good service. They make an excellent vodka martini cocktail.

The curries were amazing! Definitely worth a visit!

Boiled chicken with side sauce of curry - does not make cooked curry as it should be!

Best Singapore restaurant in London!

Excellent food, you could see the ingredients were very fresh and good portions. Very happy, we will gladly to return, also because it is a stone's throw from home.

Singapore Garden is my new favourite Malaysian/Singaporean restaurant (I’m Malaysian)! The chilli crab was really good - flavours were nice and the crab was huge / lots of meat. Rojak was also excellent - haven’t had it in a long time in London. Service was great and very attentive. Menu has lots of variety so it works regardless of whether you are in the mood for hawker dishes, rice with Chinese dishes or indulge in seafood. Will definitely be back.

Nice place but I did not enjoy the food.

Food was delicious, but overpriced

Hands down wonderful! Go any day but lovely and extra beautiful for Chinese New Year! Really special. Every detail thought about. So friendly and yet decadent. I loved it here as a child when my Grandad used to take me :-) the fact that it is a restaurant that has stayed so many years is proof itself! Just writing this review makes me want to go again straight away :-) take out or dine on both yummy and fresh.

I went to this restaurant not knowing what I would get, when I stepped into the restaurant the front of house was fabulous, very professional and very polite, they had us seated within minutes! I ordered the crab and egg fried rice and it arrived quite fast but not only that but the food was excellent the crab was succulent and perfect the egg fried rice was a generous portion with excellent flavours. I rate this place very highly and I would recommend anyone who’s down in the area looking for professional made food

amazing as ever and it has been like this for 25 years !

Date Visited 10/2023: I walked to a Singaporean restaurant near my accommodation, motivated by positive reviews. In my London dining experiences, I usually find myself among the first or third customers, witnessing the place fill up after a few hours. No reservation was needed, and I was seated across the bar. Despite the formal ambiance and the waitstaff’s appearance, they were notably professional and friendly. I ordered my ultimate favorite, Roti chanai, along with Laksa, Beef Rendang, and 2 bowls of rice. The dinner was delightful, and inexplicably, I felt full until the following day.

Great food, terrible service from a miserable waiter who is always rude, pushes you to hurry up and clears the table before you finish the food.

I love this restaurant so much! I've been here a few times before when I was much younger, and it has always remained as one of our finest restaurants in this area. The service and quality was exceptional, and my partner and I thoroughly enjoyed every minute! We wish to thank all the staff at Singapore Garden for their outstanding service and kindness.

See some good reviews but I had really bad service when I was there. The staff were not bothered to serve us and were clearly more interested in serving the British group first.

News years eve so the service was a bit rushed

Great Asian food with efficient if not smiling service. It's a bustling place. All around very happy.

Great food, service & cocktails. The food is good but not as good as former years. Try their Suzy Wong lychee cocktail which are delicious

Just popped in for food on way home, as usual the most friendly staff possible.

Anyone who grew up in NW London knows Singapore Garden, it’s always been there and it always had a good reputation. It’s pricey so generally if you were going it was for someone’s birthday. Have to be honest for the price I was a bit disappointed, I was on a diet, I think if you go you have to just drill an extra notch in your belt and eat what you want.

Busy well staffed and good staff great food

Quality of the food is highly maintained. A bit led down by the welcome staff. As we arrived without booking being seated by the entrance where the table used to sort out the delivery package. Nice waitress moved us to a proper table.

Amazing family restaurant offering authentic Asian cuisine in a very nice setting! Would work great for a family dinner or romantic date

I ordered a delivery on line to the cost of £ 76,50. I can't say I am a regular diner, but I have eaten at the restaurant & had deliveries over the years. In today's order I requested an extra pot of satay sauce. I then received a phone call to say the extra pot would cost me £ 3 cash. I don't have any cash at home. Suffering from chest infection and loss of my voice, I could not face a discussion on the phone. The order never arrived.

Excellent Chinese food. Wonderful variety. It is a pity always full. I try to book but always too busy. Their spicy aubergine is delicious

Wow! This food was great and if you like service with a smile, that’s what we got! We ordered two kinds of crab… the red Chile crab and the pepper crab, noodles, fried rice, shrimp… some yum beef… everything was amazing! Only thing we weren’t raving about was the dessert selection.

I was staying overnight in London for work. I travelled to Swiss Cottage specifically to try this restaurant. They do not take on line bookings and having not phoned ahead I was concerned to arrive at the restaurant and find it looking very busy on a cold Thursday evening. I asked for a table for one and a table was found - phew! The food was great. Quite expensive, but this is London. Basically a Chinese menu with some Malaysian dishes. So I had a quarter of crispy duck which was cooked really well and came with a generous supply of pancakes. I followed this with delicious beef rending and rice. Sometimes this sort of food can swim in MSG, but not here. Service was efficient, friendly and helpful (I liked the fact that nearly all staff wore masks). I really enjoyed this meal, although it was far from cheap.

I was recommended to this restaurant by a client, although she did mention that it was overpriced. We arrived earlier than anticipated with my son it was part of our post Christmas get together dinner! We entered the restaurant 5 minutes before they were open. My son asked if they were open, we were greeted with just about! Very unwelcoming and unpolite. The whole experience here was unpolite. After being seated I asked the waiter if they have any vegan options and he very confusingly said don’t know what you normally eat at Chinese restaurants as very difficult! He suggested mixed vegetables which I ordered. For starters we had spring rolls. TO MY HORROR WHILST EATING I FELT SOMETHING IN MY MOUTH LIKE PAPER. Which I took out, it was not paper it was a long piece of STRING!! There were many people with children eating if a child ate that they could have choked! I showed the waiter who very quickly took away the spring rolls and bought us another portion. They did apologise but didn’t offer anything in return or reduce the bill. At this point I was very put off by anything prepared in this restaurant’s kitchen. I was so hungry and was looking forward to my main food otherwise I would have walked out at this point. The whole experience here was very weird everyone had masks on like we had just come out of a pandemic! I will not be returning!! Ohhhh and lastly I couldn’t eat all the tofu I ordered so asked to have this packaged for takeaway in a separate takeaway dish to my sons chicken, which he didn’t finish. Guess what they did?? They put it into the same container. The same waiter who knew I am vegan and who specifically said 2 separate containers in same bag!

The menu has hardly ever changed over many decades. It’s dependably consistent. Go for the Malaysian or Singaporean dishes if you wish, but they do everything really well. No music, which is a plus. Friendly efficient service and the prices are right. We come here whenever we can and I heartily recommend you do the same.

Food quality has significantly worsened over the past year. A shame as it used to be so reliable. Presentation and service have also declined - it seems they cannot cope with the increasing demand of takeaway orders and are now hurrying out substandard food.

Had a terrible experience with this restaurant this evening. I ordered via Deliveroo. The pork ribs were not ribs, just a small box of bones. The chicken and prawn laska was a small tub of very greasy liquid, on the side were 2 prawns and I piece of small chicken to put into the greasy liquid. I could not eat the meat, it was sickening. Probably the worst restaurant I have every ordered from

Good location and comprehensive menu, but lacks the taste of spices to make it truly authentic

Overrated is my assessment of this restaurant. We had Roast Duck on a bed of vegetables, Lemon chicken, and a Malaysian tofu dish. None of which were special or could be called delicious. Of these three the lemon chicken was the most pleasant. We had desserts and these at least were nice. The service left a lot to be desired. It was not attentive and the waiter was unfriendly. We had not signalled the waiter, and until we did so, the main course dirty plates just stayed on the table, and we were not asked if we wanted dessert. I could say more. I have had many better meals and experiences at less expensive chinese restaurants.

What can I say, everything we had here was absolutely exquisite! The menu is quite lengthy and has items to satisfy any eater. All the food we ordered came promptly and was cooked to perfection. The parcels and the dumplings were bursting with flavour, and out of the mains the shrimp and the pork belly were clear favourites!! Their cocktails were also delicious, and landed quite a punch, so definitely value for money. I would visit this place again, everything tasted delicious, the staff are lovely, and the whole atmosphere is lovely.

Very good quality, the food is beautifully cooked and natural. No additives. Home delivery is available and they are always fast. 100% recommended.

We followed the rules and advice during the covid 19 pandemic, and now felt able to visit Singapore Garden for dinner. We were pleased to observe the tables well spaced out, staff wearing face coverings, and hand sanitiser on all tables. All our favourite dishes were there! We enjoyed chicken and cashew nuts, crispy duck, Sichuan beef, and Malaysian chicken curry. Service was efficient and friendly, as ever. We learned that the restaurant has been there for 39 years...long may it continue. An excellent experience.

Singapore Garden has been around for as long as I can remember and live through all the changes throughout the years. Times change and you change with it. There is a reason why it survives as one of the very few. The decor is contemporary and service is good. The food has always been on par but nothing too special about it. Well until I had the Hainanese Chicken Rice, a dish so famous in Singaporean cuisine. Honestly it is probably one of the worst Hainanese Chicken Rice I have ever had… The chicken was of poor quails and overcooked, the soup was lukewarm at best and the rice, the most important element in this dish, was not even warm but dry and lacked the chicken taste. My son and I were so disappointed. As said, service is good, good ambience and ideal place to sit with a bottle of wine in the evening. I am just utterly disappointed with the signature Singaporean dish. Admittedly it is not an easy disk to make but if you couldn’t make it right, my advice would be to take it out of your menu. Food 6.5/10, ambience 8/10, service 8/10, value for money 7/10.

An old favourite, but the recent price rises are 30%+ turning it from good to expensive. The prices don’t match the delivery any more.

Ordered twice from this place now. Both times all dishes were perfect. Nicest Chinese I’ve ordered from in a long time 🥡 *edit* consistently still my #1 go to for Chinese food. Prawns are amazing, crispy squid is amazing and the szechuan sauce is amazing. It’s all amazing.

The food was wonderful. We ordered the Black pepper crab and the chilli crab. Both were quite good. For appetizers we had prawn toast which was amazing, and the spare ribs, which were good. The roti Kincaid was also great. We were 10 of us and we ordered the sweet and sour prawns, chilli prawns, beef randang, egg fried rice and mixed Chinese greens. Everything was great. The servers were polite, but we all just felt that there was too long a wait between serving the courses. We had a birthday, so had taken a small cake to cut. We were informed that in order to be allowed to cut our own cake, we would also have to order a dessert off of their menu

Good food excellent service, food more Chinese than Malaysian.

My husband and I have been here for lunch and dinner. We enjoyed the food both times. The beef ho fun was delicious and had the distinctive wok hei. It was amazing as leftovers for my lunch the next day, too. The beef rendang and braised pork belly were likewise scrumptious. However, the Hainanese chicken rice was not very authentic; the chicken skin was yellow and wrinkly and the meat was rough, unlike the chicken rice I grew up eating in Singapore. As for desserts, I was really interested in trying the sago melaka. I mostly enjoyed it, though I feel like it could do with less gula melaka syrup, as it was too sweet for me. My husband got mochi, which was unremarkable. They were also out of the hazelnut and coconut, so he could only choose from chocolate and mango. Overall, though, I like the food and would come back to try out other things on the menu. Service is professional and polite. Prices are a bit high, however, so I’d personally save my visits for special occasions.

Amazing food really lovely staff, would say they do come to the table alot so if you don't like that I wouldn't advise

Overall dishes are excellent. Some dishes hit and miss . Service friendly but it's not the place for a quick meal

Authentic Singaporean fare at reasonable prices. We had the kway teow, special fried rice and prawn sambal belacan. All three were amazing - probably the best South East Asian food I've had in London. The servers are super friendly and always keen to help you out with the menu.

Excellent friendly staff serving Table 22. Extensive menu with good vegan options. Most impressive - flavours, texture and presentation of food. Really enjoyable.

We ordered fried noodles, Chinese veggies in garlic sauce and chilli shrimp. Nothing was spicy or flavourful snd service was abrupt and unfriendly. Definitely eat elsewhere if you’re looking for flavourful East Asian food

Came here to try some authentic Singaporean and Malaysian dish. The restaurant was so busy when we left on a Wednesday. Ordered some of their specials on the menu, the only one that really tasted good was the fried tofu and rojak. The hokkien noodle wasn’t really what I tasted back in Singapore. The teochew meatballs wasn’t that authentic. The chicken paper bag wasn’t really what I thought it would be in Malaysia and Singapore. Hainanese chicken rice, chicken was quite dry. Chilli was good though, that ticks the box. I think this is great place to come if you want some Asian food and good for takeaways as well.

I simply do not understand the poor reviews from people who have eaten in the restaurant. OK, with take-away, it never tastes the same as actually dining in a restaurant, but some of these reviews are frankly incomprehensible. There are very few really good Oriental restaurants in NW London and the wife and I had despaired of finding one that was reasonably priced. We are both very familiar with the various Oriental cuisines having travelled for more than 40 years in the area and we can honestly say this is as good as you're going to get. The service is a bit abrupt, but a smile on your face gets over that - and if the waiter is pushy to get your order, just say you need more time. No big deal. We engaged with them and they were very friendly. Most important, the food is terrific; so much so we made the journey from Mill Hill twice in a week to eat there. If you want vegetarian options, they are only too pleased to oblige. Although it's a 30 minute journey each way, this has now belome our 'local'.

Situated in Fairfax road near to the roundabout. Parking available outside and in the surrounding streets. Haven't been here for years but nothing has changed. Excellent food, well presented by attentive waiters and waitresses Reasonably priced for the quality of food Would definitely revisit Cannesdid...

Consistently good food served here.

Ordered a take away although I have eaten at the restaurant. The food was up to its usual very good standard and I really enjoyed. As we are all getting used to post covid it is important to find establishments who rise to the challenge...

I ordered roast duck and egg fried rice. The duck was mostly fatty skin with very little meet. Very disappointing. I must say I had better meals at this restaurant. Prices are also excessive for what one gets.

En route home through my old childhood area, opted to get a takeaway to take home. The restaurant was busy. There is a window where takeaway orders are taken and delivered. I found the elderly male on the till obnoxious. 'Do you know what you...

Always delicious food & this time was no exception. We've been coming here for years & will continue. Tables spaced for covid.

This was a very very disappointing visit to this recommended restaurant. The food was served cold and had to be returned. The service was slow and poor. Requested to leave our table before we had finished due to having to return the cold food.

Excellent Place values their customers here Nw yr eve if you know you know

I live next door and went there for the first time. Terrible. I’ve ordered the number 2 (kuay pie tee top hats) as starter. It came 1 minute after waiter left the table. It was dripping in oil at the bottom. As main I ordered...

We ordered a delivery last night. I placed the order, half crispy duck, sambal prawns, soft shell crab, aubergine in yellow bean sauce, plain fried noodles and garlic shoots, at 6.05pm and was told to expect delivering 35-45 minutes. It arrived 20 minutes later after...

Ordered a delivery via their website. After 2 hours and 2 telephone calls (the second of which they left me on hold for 10 minutes), my husband had to go to the restaurant and forcefully demand the food before it was given to us! Absolutely...

Growing up in S’pore, I can say that this food is (mostly) very authentic. When I’m fed up, I order it as home delivery, but because on the minimum spend I have to buy two meals - planning to save one for tomorrow. Needless to say, my dinner the next day has to be supplemented!!

Having lived in Singapore for over 25 years I was craving a char kway teow. Everyone knows that Chinese food is just pretty terrible in the UK but thought I'd try this place. So I drove 45 minutes to pick up a takeaway, knowing that...

Very disappointing, a local favourite of the family & loyal customers. However placed an online order tonight of all nights and no show even though order was accepted & processed. Unable to get through to the restaurant & leaves a bad taste in our mouths...

New Year’s Eve Ordered takeaway at 6pm and went to pick up at 7.30pm and was told to come back in 45 mins as it was not ready. Came back at 8.30pm and still not ready. There was a massive group of people waiting outside...

Placed takeaway order to an address inside the delivery zone indicated on their website. Order accepted by their system. Restaurant called back insisting it was outside and required additional charge. Staff we're uncompromising and refused to fulfill the order unless charge was paid. Order refunded....

We decided to eat out, for just about the first time since coronavirus struck, and chose to come here; we were not disappointed. Singapore Garden were obeying all the covid regulations to the letter: temperature taken on entering, pathway carefully shown, plentiful supplies of hand...

I came here to try the black pepper crab which is a popular Singapore dish, I found the flavour pretty average but it was quite a meaty crab. Other dishes were disappointing such as the salt & pepper squid which was bland, stir fried morning...

My favourite local restaurant to swissy c. Great flavours and very fresh. Personal top dishes are king po/king prawn okra. Great manager and FOH team are always charming and diligent. Their ducky is also excellent!

Great menu. Plenty of choice but mainly just really well cooked. Nice environment, attentive service. Soft shell crab was delicious. Down to earth but really well done.

Good food and service but expensive. Pick the Malay rather than Chinese dishes
