Only realised I didn’t review this spot (and I came a few years back!) but the photos were still in my archives. I think the recent reviews speak for themselves and while I can’t remember the names of the dishes, the memories stuck through and I remember one of the best birthdays through covid.

Excellent experience at Iggy's. Food was great and the service was impeccable, with helpful and attentive servers. Able to see the chefs in action through the window. The menu was good and balanced in flavours and texture.

The food here delivered by Chef Jake Lee & Team is at an exceptional level, worthy of 2 Michelin stars at least and looked visually stunning in photos too! There was a lot of finesse and passion that you could see on display from the team at the open kitchen. Came here for the first time for a Valentine’s Day celebration with my wife and we were delighted by every course with spot on flavor balance and perfect interplay of textures. Some misses that marred an otherwise outstanding meal: 1) Table assignment which was confirmed 15 days ago was not fulfilled and I had to show my WhatsApp conversation with the team to reconfirm, was initially seated just beside kitchen. 2) There was no table crumbing service and I had to request for it after a few courses were served and the table was untidy. Last photo as example. This is a basic professional service standard let alone at a Michelin establishment. 3) I was presented final bill for payment and since I was asked to pay a deposit beforehand to reserve table, I wanted to confirm deposit was going to be deducted from the full amount since there was no record of deposit on the bill but both staff who handled my bill told me the full amount was correct and they had no idea about the deposit and I had to show them my PayNow (see last screenshot) and WhatsApp message as confirmation that I paid the deposit. This process is unusual. I was told later by another staff to trust the process as they would’ve deducted the deposit when I made payment. Most places would give you a final amount less deposit before they proceed with payment. Clearly the kitchen & menu is managed at the highest level as for the rest of the operations there is hope that one day they can reach for the 2nd star. I wish them all the best.

Really cosy and smooth experience. Food was delicious and I loved the cold inaniwa dish with the amazing wine-like tomato. I don’t take alcohol so wished they had a more extensive drinks menu to cater to that. Special mention to the hot and crispy ginger madeleines that made the menu feel more festive. The other table also gave their compliments to the chef for it.

Food 8/10 Service 11/10 Had a fine meal at Iggy's. Had some stumbles at the start but finished strong The snacks/amuse bouche looked exciting but was a major letdown. Bafun uni on yam. The uni looked so fresh but was immediately was overpowered by the yam. The combination did not work at all. What a waste! I should have eaten the uni separately. The tuna tartare on hash brown was so so. The hash brown was very oily. The last was a cold pumpkin soup with tofu. That was excellent. Inaniwa udon that followed was good - smooth , silky enhanced by the tomato consomme. Very fresh and light dish. But It came with shreds of snow crab which was dry and hard causing disharmony to the overall taste. Carabino salad was good in its parts but didn't come together. Felt like one piece of prawn with a greens on the side. Things got better from here, The foie gras was buttery and smooth The cappelini was a beautiful fusion of japanese umami and italian finesse. Loved every bite The tennen buri was gorgeous. The applewood gave it a smokey richness that complemented the buttery and fresh sweetness of the fish The tenderloin was good but nothing exceptional. A good piece of meat cooked right. Dessert was good and so was the madelines. I always remember them having a great pastry chef Service was spectacular. I walked in without prior reservation and requested some mix and match to the menu and they did their best to accommodate with a smile. Service was attentive. Kudos to the team!
