Excellent
Trio Restaurant
9.4A 52-seat Uptown room, open kitchen, polished menu, and tasting option give Trio the shape of a planned evening out. It suits dinners where the setting, pacing, and service need to feel considered.
Bhima's Warung
8.8Bhima's works best as a planned dinner: reservations, splurge-level seafood and meat mains, detailed sauces, and a long-running King Street North identity make it feel occasion-ready.
Good Options
Loloan Lobby Bar
9.2Loloan suits a celebration dinner when the party wants cocktails, design, and composed mains in the same room, especially around duck, seafood curry, and the tasting option.
Proof Kitchen + Lounge
8.3Proof has enough polish for birthdays, client dinners, and dressed-up weekend plans without forcing a formal fine-dining script. The strongest version uses cocktails, a composed main, and dessert instead of treating it like a quick bite.
Watami Sushi
8.9For a small celebration, Watami has enough polish to feel intentional: torched sushi, sashimi, sake, cocktails, black cod, carpaccio, and reservation-minded dining. It is best suited to quieter milestones where the plan is a careful Japanese meal rather than a loud room.
Mediterraneo Family Restaurant
9.3Mediterraneo fits casual celebrations better than formal fine dining: it has reservations, generous plates, a shareable platter, and desserts that let the meal feel complete. It is strongest for birthdays, family dinners, and relaxed milestone meals.
The White Rabbit
9.1For a casual celebration, White Rabbit has the pieces that make a night feel planned: reservations, a strong drinks program, shareable starters and a few bigger-ticket mains. It is better suited to a social night out than a quiet formal dinner.
