At Song (by Kin Kao), we offer a seasonal food menu paired with a natural wines and signature cocktails. We choose the best seasonal local ingredients whenever possible. At its core, our flavours are authentic Thai from all over Thailand.

After opening for less than a year, we were honoured with Michelin Guide's prestigious BIB GOURMAND for exceptional value and quality.

Our beautiful space is designed by renown local architects Scott & Scott Architects. Our bright room is dimmed before dinner service to keep the attention on our guests and the food for the evening. Expect spicy Thai, fresh daily seafood and good vibes all night long at Song.

Our online reservation is limited to 6 guests; should you require 7+, please call/email us once you have booked a table for 6 & we will change on our end should we have the space to accommodate. OUR POLICY FOR GROUPS OF 5 OR MORE IS SUBJECT TO AUTO-GRATUITY (20%) and space is very limited.

We look forward to welcoming you!

From the OpenTable editors: Song takes familiar Thai dishes to new heights with bold flavors and meticulous technique, earning a Michelin Bib Gourmand nod. Think Pad Thai made with fresh noodles and tossed in a house tamarind sauce or green curry studded with sous vide beef shank. The drink menu is equally thoughtful, featuring natural wines and cocktails spiked with Thai ingredients like lemongrass and ginger.

The Valentine's Day set menu was quite interesting. The beef short ribs in curry was quite tasty and the red snappy in sweet and sour sauce was ok. However, the temperature of most of the dishes were not really that hot. For example, the "crispy" cone of the chicken satay was cold and soggy. The soup was lukewarm. We were also disappointed in the service. We were not attended to for the first 10 to 15 minutes. The server seems to be quite busy and did not spend much time at our table. We ordered tea and it came with a teabag in a cup. We inquired about getting a teapot and was told that they don't have teapots. Later, the tea cup was refilled with cold/lukewarm water.... Given the fact a gratuity of 20% was charged at time of booking, the service can be improved. It is an interesting restaurant. Maybe we will go back when they are less busy and can improve on the service then?

The flavours in every dish we tried were amazing. Very complex and a wonderful blend. Service on the other hand was mediocre at best. We were greeted at the door and was pointed to a table instead of shown to a table. After ordering the only staff coming to the table we're running food, not once were we asked if we wanted to order more food/drinks. Price point is perfect for the food but not for service

The food was wonderful as was the service! I would have given 5/5 for everything…but our food came out too quickly. I had to ask the kitchen to slow things down so we could enjoy the delicious food. Once things slowed down we thoroughly enjoyed ourselves. Thank you!

The server didn't know much about the tasting menu and she was a bit "stand off-ish" maybe she's new. The food was really yummy!
