Best Kunafe I ever had , highly recommended. The creamy spinach and mushroom soup were fantastic too. Thanks for the satay as the chef knew that we were celebrating wedding anniversary.
Awesome food. We really enjoyed the ambience. Bruschetta platter was too good. Love their own factory made Baklava.
Chanced upon this place while fixing my bike. Really nice place to chill with friends or sit down and focus on work. Service staffs are also very proactive and nice. Highly recommended.Only down side is that the menu is not updated/ many items not available.
amazing dishes , well located & comfortable seating ! Strong WiFi and highly recommend a visit here , the lamb was cooked perfectly
Delicious lunch and it was a good price point .My friend and I had the pan seared fish and chicken pasta.They provided an excellent vegetable soup and fruit punch as part of the lunch set. This place is definitely worth seeking out .
Was finding a place to eat for lunch around the area on Google and came across this restaurant. Decided to try it out and I was not disappointed at all. Ordered the wagyu beef burger as my main and when I saw the burger in front of me, I was salivating. It was extremely scrumptious. The kunafe was delicious too! 
The staff were also polite and nice to talk to. Highly recommend this restaurant!

Absolutely love this little gem of a bar and restaurant. Perfectly situated near Little India, close to other fine attractions and in a beautiful location. Excellent food, drinks, and service. Great happy hour pricing. Pub snacks so tasty! Jojo, Aisha, Angella, Evie, and Kylie guarantee your visit will be memorable. Every time I visit Singapore I make it a point to swing by and hang out with the crew. Love J-Bistro, love the team!
Overall pretty good. Wagu burger was a bit salty - too much seasoning, but peasant atmosphere and good menu selection.
J Bistro is a gem hidden in a very unique district of Singapore straddled between Kampung Glam and Little India. With this unique location, it is poised to attract locals and tourists alike. With their great western fusion cuisine, an evening here will never have a dull moment. The food is exotic and authentic to say the least, the staffs are very attentive too. You definitely must pay this place a visit soon!Keng Heng
Just solid, we're the first customers to walked in, best restaurant for hangover meals imo
A hidden gem! Read good reviews and decided to check it out. The food was really good! The taste was on-point. Portion was huge and price reasonable. The service crews were very polite too. Nice place to wind down with good food and drink after a day of hard work.
Nice local bar next to the The Vagabond Club Hotel. JoJo is a great host and bartender. Good selection of drinks and expansive bar menu.
good food and thanks jojo for waving the cockage and ur friendly service. Friendly guy and very amiable, will definitely return
Aisyah was indeed an excellent host.She made us feel at home, entertaining us even though the place hosted a wine pairing event.She definitely deserves a commendation from her boss.Thanks Aisyah 
Got to know J Bistro from a friend and, since we were in the area, we decided to swing by and give it a try. The food and service were awesome, with friendly staff and great recommendations by the gentleman behind the bar counter.I was curious about the menu, which offered a variety of cuisines including Indonesian, Western, Indian, and Turkish desserts. What should we eat? There were three of us, so we decided to share and try a bit of everything.My friend had already decided on the Camembert Cheese Cubes – they were super yummy and not overly cheesy. A perfect start to our meal.I opted for the Lombok Chicken Satay. It was amazing! I loved the way it was char-grilled, and the satay sauce was so delicious that I cleaned up the plate – not a drop was left. The sauce was smooth like peanut butter.For the mains, we decided to try the Turkey Bacon Carbonara. Normally, I’m not a fan of carbonara because it can feel heavy, but today I liked it. There was a generous amount of turkey bacon bites, and they were so crispy.We had heard they serve good steak, so we decided to try The Gentlemen’s Cut – a 380g Angus Ribeye, cooked medium. Verdict: perfect for me. 
We are definitely going back to try the chargrilled Angus Tomahawk!

Feel the atmosphere of holiday when you step into this place. Ordered the truffle carbonara, poached fish and satay as starter. The satay is just super solid. Tasty and juicy.
Great food.Gentlemen's Cut Ribeye is fantastic. Salad is fresh, and the Butter Chicken with Japanese Rice is rich and creamy.
Had the chargrill chicken and olive crusted oven baked fish upon recommendation by the waitress. Both dishes did not disappoint..there was a nice smokiness to the chicken and the fish was fresh. Both dishes came with roasted veggies as well.
We had lamb chops and wagyu beef burger and find them good enough to come back again. The food is well flavoured.We are the only customers during our dinner, hope their business will improve.
Great customer recovery by restaurant management! Thank you for the kind offer.We came back for another meal. Unfortunately the same chicken dish was out of stock today, so we tried the steak, which was so much better compared to yesterday’s - many thanks to the chef!We were also given complimentary baklava.Thank you.
I hardly write reviews these days. Partly it is pointless. Do the reviews have any merit? Do bad reviews cause any damage to the outlets being reviewed? Do good reviews bring any advantage to the outlets? More likely they have negative repercussions.The vibe wasn't good when we arrived; at 7 pm on a Saturday there was just one table occupied. Perhaps, it's a drinking place where the crowd will come in later.Now the food, the sole purpose of our visit. The French Onion soup was burning hot and the forest of mushroom soup was decent and had the fragrance and correct temperature. The wagyu burger was decent. The ribeye was objectionable. It was supposed to be charcoal grilled in their Kopa oven. But the meat looked more like being blanched and then tossed in the grill for burnt lines. Medium rare was served as medium well. Any decent chef worth his fire would not have allowed it to be served.I usually do not confront the chef or server. I am out for a dinner and plan to keep the pleasantries of the evening. But I need to write this review and hope that the bistro improves. You can't charge your customers $34.80 for that piece of 200 g ribeye that I had. I am sure your chef can do better.
another day of celebration, was thinking to try something new. came here for its keto burger, wondering how it would be - its indeed like a burger without the bread. ordered the Buffalo wings, it's too spicy for me. Squid, a bit of surprise, quite good. The place is more for beer or wine, chilling with friends.
