a month agoGood value French fusion restaurant with Italian dishes as well. The pasta here is really good especially the pappardelle. They are famous for the wine braised oxtail and I like the 7 day iberico pork collar here. Prices are very reasonable and the atmosphere is more to the romantic style.

a month agoI’m so glad I chose Lumiere for dinner. The food was excellent and the atmosphere was perfect for celebrating my sister’s birthday. The staff were all wonderfully friendly, and we were delighted by a lovely surprise when dessert arrived — not only was there a birthday message, but the restaurant had also drawn a beautiful portrait of my sister. Thank you for making the evening so special.

a month agoVisited this place for a birthday celebration and absolutely loved it! It’s a hidden gem along Penang Road. The food was exceptional, and the prices were very reasonable for fine dining. Truly impressed and will definitely be returning!

a month agoGreat service, great vibe. Beef was flavourful and lived up to the description on the menu. Pasta was mildly disappointing. It’s a good pasta but shouldn’t be named as kombu truffle pasta. Am a big fan of kombu and truffle so I ordered it. the salmon roe was abundant and borderline overpowering but still a positive flavour, there’s only a very subtle tiny hint of kombu, and no hint of truffle. Enjoyed the house wine but no table water and bread.
