You just earned a promotion, or you’ve finally graduated from university. Perhaps, you might even want to pop the question. Need a restaurant to celebrate at? This is our list.
In the third installment of our new series, mGuides, it is all about celebrations this week! This week, our list features five restaurants that we recommend heading to if you have a reason to celebrate, or perhaps just to have an excellent meal.
Bakalaki Greek Taverna
First up, Bakalaki Greek Taverna. Located in the Robertson Quay area, this is the place to head to if you are celebrating in a group. With booths for larger parties and an extensive menu of authentic Greek cuisine, you could almost be fooled into thinking you were teleported to Greece.
With a lively atmosphere, knowledgeable and friendly servers, plus a wall of wine in the shape of the Greek flag, you know you’re in for a great time. While there is streetside parking, finding a lot could be difficult, so it is suggested to park elsewhere like M Social Singapore or The Quayside.
Address: 38A Martin Rd, Singapore 239072 Operating Hours: Monday to Sunday, 11.30am to 12am
Parking: Street parking rates apply
Bistecca Tuscan Steakhouse
Voted as the 13th best steakhouse in the World’s 101 Best Steak Restaurants 2021, Bistecca Tuscan Steakhouse specialises in steaks from the Italian region of Fiorentina, known as Bistecca alla Fiorentina. Weighing in at a minimum of one kilogram, this is definitely one steak that is best shared.
With a slightly dim interior featuring dark wood furniture and Italian artwork, this is a great place to celebrate with that special someone or with family. The friendly wait staff will answer any questions about the menu, so you will no doubt walk out feeling extremely satisfied. Streetside parking at Muhammad Sultan Road can be difficult as lots fill up fast, so do consider parking at UE Square or Robertson Walk.
Address: 26 Mohamed Sultan Rd, Singapore 238970 Operating Hours: Monday, 6pm to 10pm, Tuesday to Thursday, 12pm to 2.30pm, 6pm to 10pm, Friday to Sunday, 12pm to 2.30pm, 5.30pm to 10pm

Keef the Beef
If you have seen videos of famed New York establishment Peter Luger Steakhouse, and wondered where could you get steak like that in Singapore, then head over to Keef the Beef. Taking inspiration from Peter Luger, Keef the Beef does their own rendition of it, with a selection of beef ranging from USDA Prime to Australian F1 Wagyu.
The restaurant is a dim and intimate space, with soft lighting, gentle music and a fully stocked wine room being some of the things you first notice. Should you want a private room to celebrate in, Keef the Beef also has two private rooms you can dine in, which is useful if you have a large dinner party. With the restaurant being at The Grandstand, parking is free and plentiful, so you don’t have to worry about it.
Address: 200 Turf Club Rd, #01-12, Singapore 287994 Operating Hours: Monday, Wednesday, Thursday and Sunday, 11.30am to 3pm, 5pm to 11pm.Tuesday, 5pm to 11pm. Friday and Saturday, 11.30am to 3pm, 5pm to 12am.
Parking: Free
Bochinche
Argentinian restaurants are a rarity in Singapore, with Bochinche being one of just a handful. While they pride themselves as an Argentinian steakhouse, they do sell other cuts of beef not from Argentina, but their specialty still is Argentinian beef, renowned for its clean, grassy flavour.
The interior features marble tabletops, wooden flooring and wall tiles with distinctive zig-zag patterns. The atmosphere is subdued, yet can get a little lively, especially when seated at the bar top tables in front of the kitchen, giving you a front row view to the food preparation. Being in Telok Ayer, streetside parking is going to be difficult, so try parking at China Square Central or Cross Street Exchange instead.
Address: 27 Club St, Singapore 069413 Operating Hours: Monday to Thursday, 12pm to 3pm, 6pm to 11pm. Friday and Saturday, 12pm to 3pm, 6pm to 12am

Skai
If you are going to propose, this could very well be the place to do it at. Located on the 70th floor of Swissôtel The Stamford, this is one of the few restaurants in Singapore with an unrestricted and unparalleled views of the city. With a chic interior and views directly overlooking the Marina Bay Floating Platform, it would be hard to get better than this.
With an menu featuring fine European cuisine and a curated selection of drinks, together with an extensive wine list, Skai is one place to have a distinct experience, creating permanent memories, and perhaps even to create new ones together with that significant other in your life. Being located within Swissôtel The Stamford, parking is easy as you can park in the hotel carpark, or have the valet park your car for you.
