“Cafeteria-Grade Faux Asian Catered To The Local Yokels”

Singapore Grill & Sushi Bar

1 of 5 stars
Connecticut
May 17, 2008

Singapore Grill promotes itself heavily with color advertisements in the local paper and tourist handouts.

There's a reason why it has to.

The menu takes an eclectic stab at malay, japanese and singaporean dishes as well as many "specialty" sushi rolls -primarily comprised of ingredients like cream cheese. We took the cautious route and ordered the "Pineapple Chicken" as our main entree. What arrived was a microwaved chicken breast with canned pineapple chunks swimming in a cornstarch slurry.

Caveat emptor. If you liked scoops of chop suey piled high on your tray in your high school, then this is your idea of Asian paradise.

Then again, when you are in a restaurant like this and are asked four times by the waitstaff if you would prefer a fork over chopsticks, you're bound to realize that this is not authentic fare.

For real Asian not dumbed down to the tastes of shoreline Connecticut, try Bangkok City/Little Tokyo five minutes away. Far superior in every way.

Excellent, reliable Asian cuisine with a nice variety of menu options. A little pricey, but the ambiance makes it worth a trip.

“great Asian food”

OK, I'm a local not a traveler, but Singapore Grill is one of my favorite restaurants in the New London area. The owner has done a great job of converting what was a donut shop into a nice place to dine. It's not the most spectacular ambiance but it's inviting and has an Asian feel to it. The service is on the ball and friendly (they make you feel like a member of the family). But the real reason to go there is for the food, which is delicious. It's one of the best sushi places in the area. The sushi is always fresh and the rolls are creative and delicious. For those who are not into raw fish, the warm meals are also excellant.

“Great food, awesome experience”

We visited here based on a recommendation from the innkeeper at the B&B where we stayed.

The place doesn't look like much from the outside. I believe it was converted from some sort of fast food place. However, inside, your visit will take on a different flavor.

Sonny, the owner, is a great guy, and makes it a point to visit every table. He's very outgoing and talkative, easy to laugh and joke with (and I tend to be a tad introverted). He will give you his suggestions for what he thinks you'd like based on some of your inital selections. His suggestions were very good, and all very tasty. Among the best sushi I've had.

Both the food and the overall experience were great. I'd recommend it. I know I'll be going back any time I'm in the New London area.
