Halal Restaurants In Singapore
Finding a restaurant to celebrate someone’s sweet 21 or an anniversary may feel daunting, especially with the plethora of halal food places in Singapore. Fret not, as we have curated a list of places that aren’t your regular dinner spots. From Thai hot pot to hotel buffets, here are 17 halal restaurants for you to check out for your next special occasion.
1. The Dim Sum Place
If your partner or family enjoys having a variety of food options, head down to The Dim Sum Place. This is not your run-of-the-mill dim sum restaurant, as The Dim Sum Place sells innovative and unique items such as the Vermicelli Roll with Beef Rendang ($8.90++), Baked Wasabi Buns ($3.90++) and more.
The former is said to be packed with chunks of robust beef rendang, wrapped in silky chee cheong fun skin. If beef isn’t your go-to protein, this dish also comes in lamb and chicken options. The baked wasabi buns, on the other hand, are bite-sized man tou with a generous smear of wasabi on top. Another item that stands out is the TDSP Cheese Tarts ($4.90): made with fresh cream, cream cheese, mozzarella chunks, and pistachio bits.
If you don’t feel like sharing, The Dim Sum Place also offers mains such as Congee with Sliced Fish ($8.90++), Wonton Noodle ($7.90++) and many more.

2. Commons
Located in Jewel Changi Airport, Commons is an open concept restaurant serving a slew of Western-Asian fusion items without breaking the bank.
If you are out for a group celebration, go for The Meat Feast ($65++). As the name suggests, it is literally meat galore, as it includes lamb rib, grilled chicken, ribeye and more. Out of all the meaty options on the platter, the lamb rib with its sweet marinade, and the beautifully seared ribeye stood out for us.
If that’s not enough, consider adding finger bites on the side, such as the Sweet & Smoky Chicken Wings ($12++) or the Lamb Wanton Tacos ($9++) for an Asian twist.

3. 800° Woodfired Kitchen
For a unique and authentic pizza experience, visit 800° Woodfired Kitchen. Unlike American-style pizza, 800° Woodfired Kitchen serves Neapolitan pizza, which is known for its incredibly thin dough base, with a puffy, charred crust that is chewy yet airy in texture.
There are only two sizes of pizza available here: 10″ and 14″. First-timers are recommended to go for the BBQ Chicken Pizza ($15/$25) or Spicy Meatball ($15/$25), which are their popular flavours. For a vegetarian option, try the Tartufo Pizza ($17/$25) that’s got a white Bianca base, topped with truffle mushrooms and a handful of fresh arugula. If you didn’t know, white Bianca is a style of pizza loaded with a variety of cheeses, giving it its signature white hue.
If none of their concoctions appeals to you, you can choose to make your own pizza! Starting from $10, choose a base—Margherita, Verde, Bianca—and top it with as many toppings (from $1) as you like!
Besides pizza, you can also get their Rotisserie Chicken to share, which comes in either a quarter ($12), half ($20) or a whole chicken ($36). If you have a larger group, choose their combo (from $18) option, which includes the chicken, sauces, and sides.

4. IndoChili
Image credit: @drinkeatpost
IndoChili is known for being one of the most authentic Indonesian restaurants in Singapore. Their menu mainly consists of dishes from Java, Padang, and Bali. They take pride in only using natural ingredients to flavour their items, so the dishes are entirely MSG-free.
For seafood lovers, go straight for the Combo Bakaran ($60.80++), which features a platter of grilled pomfret, squid, prawns, satay and more.
If not, IndoChili also has a wide selection of meats for you to choose from. Priced at $12.80++, their variety of chicken dishes come dressed in six different sauces. Do note that these are all a la carte dishes, so you can top up $1.50++ for a bowl of rice on the side if you’d like. For something smoky and robust, go for their Ayam Bakar Kecap, a BBQ flavoured chicken, or the Ayam Kari Padang for a Padang-style curry chicken. For something more interesting, check out the Bunut Goreng Special ($17.80++) which is a sauteed oxtail, paired with onion and sweet sauce.
IndoChili also offers set rice meals if you are not planning to share with others. A few items you can try are the Nasi Goreng Seafood ($13.80++), Nasi Kampung ($11.80++), and a traditional Javanese-style rice dish—the Tumpeng Mini ($15.80++).

5. Suki-Suki Thai Hot Pot
Celebrating a special occasion doesn’t always have to be all fancy and formal. Consider jazzing up your occasion with a Thai-style hot pot at Suki-Suki Thai Hot Pot.
Visit any day from Monday to Thursday for a $17.90++ lunch buffet, which covers a range of vegetable, meat and carb options. If you would like an addition of seafood, go for the dinner buffet instead ($23.90++).
Suki-Suki Thai Hot Pot offers six different types of soup bases. If you are contemplating which soup to go for, pick the crowd favourites—Red Tom Yum and Sweet Basil Chicken. The former has a strong and rich herby flavour, while the latter is light and aromatic; both complement each other well! We also recommend having the seafood dipping sauce to pair with your meat, as its slightly tangy notes go perfectly with the umami meat.

6. Sama Sama
If Commons at Jewel is too casual for your liking, check out Sama Sama—a fine dining Indonesian restaurant.
Begin your experience with the Gado Gado ($15++), a traditional Indonesian salad dressed with Gado Gado’s spiced peanut sauce. Since it is made in house, you can adjust the spice levels to your liking. This salad is then finished with a handful of crispy crackers and a hard-boiled egg on the side.
For mains, try their all-time favourite Buntut Bakar ($24++), which is grilled oxtail doused in a sweet and spiced-infused Javanese soya sauce. Alternatively, go for the Bebek Goreng Ubud ($26++), a Balinese style pan-fried duck seasoned with herbs and spices, and served with house-made sambal on the side. This dish is also available with rice for one—Nasi Bebek Goreng Ubud ($16++).
Other rice dishes include the Nasi Langgi ($17++), a Javanese curry chicken with coconut rice and sides. If not, try their rendition of Indonesia’s national dish—Nasi Goreng Spesial ($15++), which includes the usual suspects: vegetable fried rice with fried chicken, satay, fried egg, pickles, vegetables and sambal terasi on the side.

7. Picanhas’
If you fancy some steak, head over to Picanhas’, where they serve wallet-friendly steaks and a selection of mocktails. Although the menu for mains may seem small, it definitely won’t disappoint!
With only two main items, you can choose to either share by opting for the Queen of Steak ($21++) or have a bowl of Picanha Don ($16++) all to yourself. The former is a serving of rump cap cut, lightly seasoned with salt to enhance its natural flavour, and grilled for a perfectly charred exterior. It is recommended to pair the steak with their house sauces that are available in three flavours: Chimichurri, Wasabi Cream, and Sze Chuan.
While dining in Picanhas’, be sure not to miss out on their alcohol-free mocktails, all priced at $12++. We recommend the Rose for something milky and floral. If you prefer tart and fruity flavours, try the Kyoho Sangria instead.

For a Korean option, head to Captain Kim Korean BBQ & Hotpot. At this eatery, you can enjoy a pot of comforting kimchi stew while grilling marinated meat on the side. As it is a buffet, you can expect an array of ingredients, ranging from meat to Korean side dishes and vegetables.
The weekday lunch buffet is priced at $16.90++ for adults and $13.90++ for students. Dinner buffets from Mondays to Thursdays are priced slightly higher—$27.90++ for adults and $25.90++ for students.

9. Hjh Maimunah Restaurant

Hjh Maimunah Restaurant has been serving a slew of Malaysian and Indonesian fare since it opened in the 1990s. Currently, they have four outlets across Singapore, and are best known for their nasi padang.
With a vast selection of vegetables, meat, fish, and side dishes, there’s definitely something for everyone. If it’s your first visit, go for their most popular items—Tahu Telor ($7) and Begedel ($4.40). The former is a traditional Indonesian dish comprising a fried tofu omelette, topped with shredded vegetables and crushed peanuts, and then doused in a sweet dark sauce. The latter is a coin-sized, fried potato patty that is usually paired with nasi lemak, nasi padang, or served as a snack.
For proteins, you can consider their Beef Rendang (from $8.80), Ayam Lemak Cili Padi ($8), or BBQ Pomfret ($14) to share. You can also add a plate of vegetables on the side for a well-rounded meal. For a non-spicy option, try the Bayan Goreng ($5), which is a simple stir-fried spinach dish, or the Urap (from $5): a fresh mix of vegetables with beansprouts and grated coconut.

They received their halal certification earlier this year and specialise in French roast chicken, doused in either the signature Mushroom Cream, Diane, or Cranberry sauces. Opt for the Whole Roast Chicken ($36.90+) if you’re here with friends. Otherwise, go for the Half Roast Chicken ($22.90+) that can feed two. You can make your meal more substantial by choosing the Set Meal ($52+) for two, which comes with two starters, mains, desserts and drinks.
Alternatively, Poulet also offers Glazed Winglet with Sriracha or Honey Glazed Sauce ($7.90+), Chicken Carbonara Pasta ($14.90) and Chicken Aglio Olio Pasta ($14.90), if you’re looking for options other than roast chicken.

11. Ela

Whet your appetite by starting off with the Dip Party Platter ($18.90+), which features four flavour-packed dips to pair with the pita bread. As the name suggests, it’s a real party in the mouth. Otherwise, go simple with the traditional Pita Bread ($3.90+), lightly salted and served with olive oil on the side.
For mains, Ela offers a range of wraps, pasta, seafood and more. If you are looking for an affordable option, consider the Lemon Chicken Wrap ($14.90+), which comes with pitas, topped with a lemon-herb grilled chicken, served with spiced battered fries on the side.

Famed for their fresh, handmade pasta, Tipo is a great place to visit if you are looking for authentic Italian noods.
At Tipo, you’ll have the opportunity to DIY your own pasta and make it one-of-a-kind. Each plate starts from $9.90 for 100g of pasta. If you have a bigger appetite, top up $3 for every 50g. From there, you can add on as many toppings as you like! Grouped in five categories: free, basic ($1.50), classic ($2.50), premium ($3), extravagant ($4.50), you can expect to find toppings such as Sous Vide Egg, Salmon Caviar, and Smoked Salmon. Lastly, dress your pasta in their selection of sauces: Pomodoro, Alfredo, Pink Sauce and more.
