An amazing dinner at Magpie! We ordered a lot and every dish was a delight, beautifully showcasing its own unique flavours. I especially loved the warm, unpretentious ambience and the wonderful team who made the evening so relaxing. The chef’s talent and creativity truly shine through in every dish. I’m already looking forward to coming back to discover new creations, especially since the menu changes so frequently. A truly special dining experience that leaves me wanting more!

Visited Magpie recently and was pleasantly surprised by this small neighborhood gem that combines bold flavors with a relaxed, contemporary atmosphere. The restaurant may look modest from the outside, but the food showcases plenty of creativity and confidence. We started with the freshly baked tandoor bread served with their signature Magpie butter. Simple on paper, but absolutely addictive with its smoky aroma and rich buttery finish. The burrata topped with crispy onions and brinjal pickle was another enjoyable starter, balancing creaminess with sweet, tangy and crunchy textures. One of the highlights of the evening was the grilled squid chaat. Tender squid paired with grapes, yoghurt, tamarind and crunchy chickpeas created a beautiful combination of sweet, sour and savory flavors. The crab curry croquette was equally impressive, served with a crispy sesame-coated rice cake that was perfect for scooping up every bit of the flavorful curry. For mains, the Westholme Wagyu picanha was cooked beautifully, delivering a juicy and flavorful bite, complemented by earthy mushrooms and a rich sauce. We paired the meal with a bottle of Grand Bateau Bordeaux, which matched surprisingly well with the robust flavors of the dishes. The menu changes regularly, which gives diners a reason to return and discover something new each visit. Service was friendly, attentive and knowledgeable, with the team happy to explain the dishes and offer recommendations. Overall, Magpie offers a refreshing dining experience that blends modern techniques with diverse influences, resulting in food that is creative without being overly complicated. A great spot for those looking for something a little different from the usual dining scene in Singapore, accompanied by a good glass of wine and warm hospitality.
