Waterfall Ristorante Italiano

Combining fresh oceanic catch, handmade pastas and authentic recipes, Waterfall Ristorante Italiano serves up the finest classics from the southern Italian region – many of which were inspired by heirloom recipes and traditional techniques. But don't just take our word for it... The restaurant recently received the Ospitalità Italiana certification by the Italian government in October 2020, which recognises genuine Italian hospitality and truly authentic Italian cuisine. Located on the ground floor of the Garden Wing at the Shangri-La Hotel, Singapore, this Italian restaurant on Orange Grove Road also boasts an extensive wine list to complement its definitive food menu, giving you a well-rounded dining experience a mere stone’s throw away from the Orchard Road shopping belt. Booking ahead is highly advised.

At the heart of Italian cuisine is the focus on time-honoured recipes and the use of fresh, seasonal produce in bringing them to life. Singapore may boast numerous restaurants of this genre, but few come close to the standards set by Waterfall Ristorante Italiano at the Shangri-La Hotel, Singapore on Orange Grove Road in Orchard. Guests will enjoy authentic dishes from the southern Italian region, steeped in tradition and crafted with the utmost attention.

Starting with antipasti like tonno del Mediterraneo cotto all’olio affumicato (Mediterranean tuna salad cooked with smoked oil and roasted onions), work up an appetite for traditional favourites such as the pomodori marinati con burrata Pugliese (creamy stretched curd cheese mixed with marinated tomatoes, basil sauce and pistachios) or linguine allo scoglio – a shellfish-rich pasta dish representative of southern Italy. For secondi, or the second main for sharing, we highly recommend the signature zuppa di pesce, a tomato-based seafood stew served with freshly-roasted garlic bread. To round things off, Waterfall Ristorante Italiano provides classic dessert staples like tiramisu, profiteroles and panna cotta to satisfy your sweet tooth, but don’t leave without sampling the house wine, Nero d’Avola, produced from Sicily’s most important indigenous red wine grape. Experience the true flavours of southern Italian cuisine in Orchard at Waterfall Ristorante Italiano. As is the case with all popular restaurants in Singapore, we highly recommend reserving a table in advance.
