7-course Fine Dining au Joie — Avis de Laure Guilbaud (27 déc. 2020)

[Disclaimer: I hate posting this type of reviews of a vegan restaurant, but in this case I think it’s fair since this restaurant promotes itself as fine dining, which lead me to book it for a special occasion.]

As much as I really wanted to love this place, I don’t think the ambiance aligns with their high end cuisine.

Overall, food is very good value for the quality you get. The presentation of each dish is very nice, and the enthusiastic waiters attentive. I also love their efforts to bring high end vegan/vegetarian food to the SG restaurant scene.

Having said that, the restaurant ambiance and decor is quite sterile and a bit of a let down if they want to be seen as Fine dining.

I went for dinner with my husband for a special occasion. They sat us in a shared side room which looked like a bright office meeting room. It all felt a little like an airport lounge, from the cardboard lady at the entrance, the purple neon lights, the (very) bright lighting and retro glass walls. Unfortunately the place doesn’t feel quite right for a special celebration despite the great food. I do hope they improve the ambiance as this place could easily be amazing.
