Good food but pricey and a little pretenscious. The restaurant was not full but at least 3 people asked me to confirm my reservation. I had the quinoa salad starter. It was quite small for the price. I had a large lunch so I wanted a light salad. I didn’t find many options in the mains so I had to choose from the starters. The quinoa was good but pricey for what it was. I also got the soul juice (?). It was raspberry, ginger, and some other stuff. It was good but also very pricey. The staff was pleasant but it was hard to get their attention for water refills, inquiries or the check. They were eager to clear the table though, so even though my friends and I chose the restaurant because we thought it would be nice place for a good meal and to catch up, we were done in 45 minutes and felt like we needed to move elsewhere, especially because they kept asking “can I clear” as soon as you put down your spoon or fork. Overall the food was decent but very pricey, atmosphere was nice and intimate, with a pleasant staff that was a little too concerned with making the place exclusive (which is strange for a place called Open Door Policy).

The food is still very good even though there are far fewer choices since they rebranded. The staff were lovely and friendly. I’m not sure if they still have the same organic food sources that they did.

we ordered the miso salmon. great taste! This is my 2nd trip. Service was great. My friend requested for some lemon slices for the drinks and was immediately given some. hope to see more variety or special instead of the usual menu.

Avocado salad - awesome, taste blended well with the ingredients coupled with the black crisp. pork rack - tasty with purple sweet potatoe makes it salty and sweet at the same time. king crab - yummy, generous serving of real crab meat served with pasta. vege risotto - so so calamasi choco tart - unique and flavourful with a tinge of coconut soufflé - so so overall quite an experience but a little pricey.

Great service! It was my first time in the district and got lost while searching for the restaurant and the staff was out to look for us. Food was 100% gluten free which was a pleasant surprise to my friend from overseas as she has Celiac disease and had trouble searching for gluten-free food or places that is contaminated with gluten food. Kitchen was a open concept and staff was friendly and thoughtful. I would definitely be back again.

So wonderful to find a restaurant totally gluten and dairy free. Loved the food and service and will go again, however it will have to be for special occasions as it is at the expensive end.

Average steak and service. Also was mislead by server on the accompanying vegetables which lead us to order unnecessary additional sides. Wine also expensive for sub par options.

The location was a little walk from the mrt, but well worth it. Great feel as you enter the restaurant and a fantastic relaxing meal ahead. The food was top notch sand very flavoursome. It was complemented by the fantastic service of the staff there. Will definitely be returning to try other items in the menu.

It was a pleasant experience overall. The waiters managed to concoct drinks that were not in the menu. The portion size was a bit on the small size, but the quality and balance of Flavours was just right.

Tummy- friendly (gluten and lactose free) yet delicious, the foods are great for those who are allergic to lactose and gluten, including those with irritable bowel syndrome. Staff are friendly and accommodating. Set in the rustic Tiong Bahru estate. Highly recommended.

Ambience is delightful. Though it may not be child friendly cos of the space constraints. Service staff is attentive & accomodating to our needs. The food & dessert are pleasing. There are flying insects around probably due to the indoor herbs/plants but the scent from the herbs is like a natural air freshener.

Though finding the restaurant is a bit difficult and the space is congested , the dishes are ok but not upto the mark.The vegetarian set meal needs improvement with an increase in portion size. Overall the experience was not bad.

Very nice ambience. Well presented dishes. Good combination of ingredients that allows the individual flavours to meld without one flavour overpowering the others. This theme extends to the cocktails where the food brings out the subtle nuances of the cocktail.

Excellent service, meal quality of flavour and choice was superb. Comforting to know that everything on the menu was gluten free. The atmosphere with the herb plants along the wall and great background music added to the night. If I had to say something was not good it was that the airconditioning was a bit cold, but that's all.
