Fantastic food and an even better experience at ASU! Every dish was thoughtfully prepared, beautifully presented, and full of flavor. The balance of taste and texture was spot on. The staff were attentive without being intrusive, making the whole dining experience smooth and enjoyable. A must-visit if you’re looking for quality food and warm hospitality. Highly recommended!
View on GoogleSeated at the top of Labrador Park, ASU in Labrador House provides Diners with an exceptional dining experience. Chef Ace and his culinary team has done an exceptional job in creating cuisines that is on par with a 3 Michelin Stars Restaurant. My Wife and I have tried all their seasonal menus and they definitely never disappoint. Kudos to the team and hope they achieve their Stars soon.
View on GoogleI have unforgettable experience eating there for a romantic dinner with my beloved husband. It was a perfect place for special date. The restaurant was stunning and inviting, our sitting arrangement was in full view of the chef and every dish presented with clear explanation there’s some element of surprise with every dish. Love the personal service. We were full to the max at the of multiple courses. We will certainly go back for another season of treat. 😋
View on GoogleI’ve visited ASU twice since its opening, experiencing both seasonal menus, and I’m equally impressed. What stands out to me most is Chef Ace’s authenticity and his meticulous approach to designing each dish with progressive Asian elements. Unlike some places where creativity feels forced, his creations always have a story behind them. His ingredient pairings and execution methods are often unexpected yet intricately precise, making each dish a delightful surprise. If you appreciate a thoughtfully curated culinary journey, ASU is a must-visit. The restaurant’s interior is also something special—a modern monastery-inspired space with curved tables that allow you to watch the chefs in action. This layout adds a dynamic element to the dining experience, making the transitions between courses feel like part of a seamless performance. It’s an experience that keeps you engaged, both visually and gastronomically. The price point is very reasonable for what you get, the portion is reasonable that even my parents felt full and worth the money 😝 unlike a typical “fine-dining” experiences, and I’d highly recommend adding the optional dishes—you won’t want to miss out. The lighting is on the dimmer side, so I didn’t take many good pictures, but honestly, the food was so good that I didn’t want my phone to eat first anyway! ASU is perfect for food lovers, date nights, and catching up with old friends. Highly recommended!
View on GoogleI know I got to go to Asu Restaurant the moment I read about how Chef Ace Tan’s Progressive Asian Cuisine, where East Asian dishes are reinterpreted with different global techniques while incorporating Traditional Chinese Nourishment elements. And this beautiful restaurant, with the beautiful cuisine with beautiful taste, absolutely astounds me. So much so that I know I will back for another season! I love it that so much thoughts is put into the concept of the restaurant, evident from the little details such as printed cards of the ingredients being beautifully hand drawn by an artist from Hong Kong, the paintings and plants reflecting the four seasons and the magical elevation of Asian dishes that score perfection in both taste and texture. Each meticulously made bite-size morsel, made with luxurious ingredients, is so complex and well-balanced in taste while highlighting the vibrancy of Asian tastes. The dishes here are also unique in that they have this delicate familiar yet special cooling property like that in traditional medicine, so there is always a “wow, this is really something unique and awesome” moment when I take the first bite of each dish. Housed within a historic colonial bungalow amid the lush forest at Labrador Villa, the exterior of the restaurant is grand, with touches of nostalgia and character. In fact, walking up the brick stairways flanked by lots of foliage while admiring the greenery surrounding the bungalow and feeling the serenity, away from the bustle of the city, is such a relaxing and different, great experience. The interior is classy, and stylish with subtle tones of lux, combining elements of modern sensibility and traditional Chinese flair. The service here is simply awesome, being friendly, thoughtful, professional and meticulous. This restaurant is definitely of Michelin Star standard. The crystal ball like Tea Smoked Sakura Masu is full of light umami yet tastes refreshing. This is so unique and out of this world. Mapo Tofu is reinterpreted to be so well-balanced and complex. Hotaru Ika Hitam is like the best Firefly squid dish I ever have. Buta Wrap, which is Chinese style Tacos with sliced tender, juicy grilled Hokkaido Pork wrapped with Charcoal Crepe. The lovely warm meatiness is elevated by spicy, exciting, tangy flavours of the condiments. Hong Zhao Main Xian totally wins me over. The Geoduck goes so well with mild sweetness of Red Koji, spiciness of Bentong Ginger and crunchy, refreshing potato noodles. King Crab Shiro Kare King is a delicate dish packed with the briny sweetness of crab that I absolutely love. This incites that pure feeling of Happiness with every mouthful. The juicy succulent sweet crab meat has its sweetness further highlighted by the mild spiciness of the white curry. Thoughts: Absolutely Astounded!
