Swensen's Unlimited, Geneo

Claimed

Perfect experience at Swensen’s Geneo, Singapore! The food was delicious, the atmosphere was great, and the service was excellent. All the staff were friendly and attentive, especially Saiful, Ian and Mathew, who made our visit extra special with their warm and helpful service. Thank you to the entire team, will definitely come back!

It was my first time patronising the Swensen’s buffet, and it happened to be at their new outlet at Geneo. I didn’t realise how convenient the location was until I got there it is very accessible from Kent Ridge MRT station. The restaurant is spacious, which made the dining experience comfortable. I decided to treat myself to a birthday lunch, and it felt like a good choice. The buffet spread offers a mix of local Asian and Western cuisine. There were local favourites like laksa and beef kway teow soup though I skipped the beef options. Other items included chicken wings, fish fillet, satay, turkey meat, pizza, etc and of course a wide variety of ice creams and gelato. I focused more on the desserts and had four different types of gelato. The quality was satisfying, and the ice cream condiments were generous with options like almonds nibbles and granola. I wanted to try the chocolate fondue, but my stomach was already too full. There’s also a cold section with items like salad and cold prawns, which I didn’t manage to explore this time. The staff were attentive and cleared plates promptly, keeping the table neat throughout the meal. Overall, I would recommend going for lunch if it is your first time trying the Swensen’s buffet it’s a good way to experience the spread without feeling too rushed.

Food was generally good. Loved the ambience especially. We quite liked the spread of dishes, especially the new ones such as the stir fried mala. The usual classic dishes such as the chicken baked rice are the ones which my kids had multiple servings. However, we also noted that the servings of the baked rice has become smaller somehow. But I guess it's to prevent overeating. One of the area for improvement is the roast beef, which was definitely too well cooked. It wasn't reddish on the inside, and it was dry and tough. We told the chef about it but there wasn't any response from him. Overall it is not too bad. Good value for money as we came on a weekday. Will want to try again on some other occasions!

Tried Swensen Unlimited @ Geneo on Valentine day evening. Booking online so no need to queue upon arrival. Restaurant is full though. Good spread of food like cold station, various types of curry, western food and the dessert kiosk. The ice cream and gelato flavour is out of this World, with flavour you cannot find outside, like lychee, musang king etc. Although price is slightly on the high side, but the spread is good enough and worth to eat once a while.
