@Amanda Hello Amanda, my apologies. This is indeed a very outdated guide. Will make a trip to Greenwood Avenue soon to check out the new places.

Hi Brad, will you be updating this list? I was researching places to eat at Greenwood and this entry comes up right on top despite being a 2010 list, but the restaurant scene has changed quite a bit since. Would love to read the list if you decide to update!

La Braceria Pte Ltd,5 Greendale Ave Singapore 289501,6465 5918, labraceria.com.sg
I just ate here for the second time. For a neighborhood restaurant, La Braceria has superb quality food. The sauce is the pride of the chef and the Bufala pizza has the same unique slightly burnt tomato sauce taste that I grew up with in New York City. Buffalo mozzarella on a pizza is a luxury and a delight. My husband’s mushroom risotto was a big hit (creamy and flavorful) with the aroma of truffles. Our dessert, profiteroles hooked us forever. There was a flavoring in the cream, perhaps almond, perhaps a liqueur, that made it outstanding. The dark chocolate sauce was rich, thick and still warm on the plate. I haven’t had such good profiteroles since the Brasserie at Marco Polo closed. I will be back!

Love your reviews. Try Baker & Cook, wonderful sourdough bread, and great croissants.

I live down the end of Greenwood Ave and frequent these restaurants quite often, our favourites are Donna Carmela, Shin Yuu and Bronte. While we have also been to the fish market for fish n chips and pepperoni for pizza
We have eaten often at Donna Carmela and we really like the cold meats and cheese selection and breads on offer. Pasta Linguine is good.
Shin Yuu is great for lunch on the weekend if your looking for light Japanese food
While Bronte is good for a sizable breakfast brunch on the weekends after a cycle. Coffee is great too.,

In terms of getting there, when driving down bukit timah road, take the uturn at Hwa Chong school, onto Dunearn then first left on Hillcrest then onto Greenwood. If you hit 6th Ave you have gone too far. cheers

tar: HELLO! cannot afford? who are u kidding! hahaha yes i can’t believe i haven’t try lana chocolate cake yet. my life is so sad right?

umasou: Is it the one that i listed? Punggol Choon Seng Seafood Restaurant? It seems to be the only Chinese restaurant in Greenwood avenue

Ai Ling: hahah is the mushroom soup really tat good? don’t tempt me! lol

keejia: wow thanks for the long comment! hehe ya man when i was there that night, greenwood fish market seems to be the only restaurant that’s full. The other Greenwood Avenue restaurants are mostly empty. I heard about the huge pizzas from peperoni, will bring a group of friends there to attack it! hee

is the seafood platter substantial? did you order other stuff other than that platter? yea i am so going back to the Greenwood Avenue restaurants soon! : )

chat masala too serves excellent indian food. especially their kebabs. the few times ive been there, there were quite a few other tables occupied. i sure hope they don’t close down anytime soon!

peperoni pizzeria serves LARGE pizzas so its great for group gatherings. the selection of alcohol is varied and its basically a nice place to chill at night. the food is just decent for me though. nothing fantastic, but i would patronise that restaurant/bar from time to time.

no complaints about the food in raku. its fairly pricey but the standard and quality of food justifies the pricing. only thing i don’t like is that its tooooo dim/dark inside! i do like being able to see my food

greenwood fish market not only serves great fish and chips. there’s this seafood platter thing that serves 2-3 costing about $80? $90? THAT is what makes the waiting worth it!

lana cake shop is always closed everytime i go there for dinner! and the staff is kinda rude. personally, i don’t have a liking for traditional cakes so i can’t really comment!

donna carmela was forgettable. except for the nice ambience and live music. but their pastas are value for money in my opinion!

what a long comment! you should definitely try out all the restaurants along this stretch of road… my parents raised me on food around this area! and i’m still loving it after all these years

I was brought to a Chinese zichar restaurant and had my best black pepper crab there a couple of years ago, can’t remember the name of the restaurant though.
