A v good experience for us. Because we were not able to see, we were forced to use other senses to ‘sense’ our surroundings, food, cutleries, n our every movement. Discerning what we are tasting was also another big challenge.

Definitely an interesting experience. Food quality is decent however the entire experience of dining in the day is really the highlight. A lot of care is taken into consideration for the diners. My daughter and I really enjoyed the meal.

A very unique dinning experience that one has to try out at least once. Food was great and service was excellent by our server. When the sense of sight is not available, you have to rely heavily on your sense of smell and taste to guess what you are eating throughout the 3-course dinner. Highly recommend, to get the pairing drinks to go with the meal.

Was an interesting experience for me and my partner! Dining in complete darkness... It also reminded me not to take life for granted. We are truly fortunate to be able to see beautiful things and scenery every single day. And what's awesome is... they actually change their menu every month! Would def come back for more!

This is our 3rd or 4th time and this time with Japanese expat friends. All of us had such a good time and as always, the food, service is impeccable. It’s an amazing experience, food quality, dish preparation, culinary experience and taste is simply beyond amazing! We love guessing the food at the end of the entire meal and are always delighted when we see the image of the food and finding out what we ate! We will be back again in December with out of town family members!

very interesting concept as we tried to guess/make sense of what we ate. being able to see what you are eating is definitely a blessing, as taste is elevated when you can see the food.

It is a fun experience! The food tasted ok, not exceptional. I wish we could take notes of the dishes while dining so we could remember everything at the end. The mocktails are extremely sweet, didn't like it.

A truly "blind" experience. Went there not knowing what to expect but the entire experience blew me away. The food was fantastic and not knowing what we were eating just enhanced our taste buds to try to pick up the nuances. A pity was the wine pairing because we felt it was a little rushed and we were unable to drink the wine slowly.

Fun place to go with a group of friends. It can get expensive when adding up alcoholic drinks. Small complementary cake if it's your birthday.

even though we couldn't see (at all!) in the dark, we knew it was really crowded due to the noise level around us. it wasn't really conducive for our anniversary date. Secondly, because of the dark, we had to be really wary about where we place our stuff. we unfortunately spilled the drink but the mess wasn't cleaned up, so we dined while the drink was dripping off the table. i'm still giving this a 4 because of the once-in-a-lifetime experience.

It was a unique experience, combined with scary and fun..didn't expect to dine in complete darkness. For a picky in food person like me, i came here for the experience. Out of the twelve small dishes, and three pairing mocktail, i like none. My partner was okay with it so its really up to individual. I headed on to eat a local food after this as i skipped the odd taste dish after one mouthful. Bill was high.

Amazing front table service, wicked cocktails to start with - try the house special by Thomas Sato, the two face of Sato and be sure to pay your compliments to the Head Bartender. Excellent cocktail! Friendly and attentive server, Rahmat who is visually handicapped and to top off the cake - delicious mind blowing food to be had in the dark with no interruptions of phones or cameras etc etc. We will be back!!

This is a strange dinner. Because you have completely different feeling: food tasted strange and we left some because of a strange taste (after the dinner we were shown beautiful foods on the photo, I hope I failed to feel beautiful taste because of"no image", but not because the food was not great). Dinner for 2 with wine pairing and coffees costs 300S$ - you pay for the experience, not for taste. I would not recommend it for romantic date or dining with kids for sure. It is hard for me to choise a fair rate for this place: you go there for experience and for supporting blind people employment. I would rate: experience- interesting; food - not a big deal; price- overpriced.

Get ready to have you sense of sight taken away. You won't need it at this place but that's a good thing! It heightens your sense of taste and you can purely enjoy the food and company! The place was great, the ambience was great, the staff was great. Would've preferred it to be slightly cheaper but if it's the experience that you're looking for, then this is the one place to get it. And the good thing is, no one can see you eating like a slob!

This is a place you must try at least once . Food is good . As you don't see the visual , it's actually gourmet food . Thou I thought the cocktail pairing was weak . A Ted too sweet for me . So yes do go . Friendly staff both on ground and 2nd floor .

Great sensory experience. Enjoyable food and a time to taste the food without seeing it at all. This somehow makes you more conscious about the food itself rather than how it visually looks.

It was a very unique experience, eating in complete darkness and just trusting your host and senses. I was surprised by how pitch black and dark the dining area was. Took a moment to gather yourself when seated and feel the table around you. The hosts were all lovely and friendly, very informative and kind. We paired our meal with the cocktail set which was also very delicious. You can request for the drinks to be less sweet if you want too. Overall, great experience! You should try it at least once in your life. :)

This was my 3rd visit to NOX. Excellent service and great food with a fun quiz after the meal. We nailed the appetizers and the mains but had trouble identifying the desserts. Something to work on until the next visit. qe had a blast!
