Stellar at 1-Altitude is a contemporary Australian fine dining restaurant that offers some amazing views of Singapore. I had the opportunity to visit on Boxing Day 2020, and came away quite happy with the experience.
Ambience, Service and the Staff
Perched up on the 61st floor of 1 Raffles Place, Stellar at Altitude offers amazing views and a fantastic environment to celebrate special occasions. The restaurant is showing signs of its age, but the staff are courteous and efficient. The restaurant also has a rooftop bar and alfresco dining area on the 62nd floor which is appealing when the sun goes down. It offers unobstructed sweeping views of central Singapore.
I had booked had booked my reservation through Chope. Upon entering, I saw that all the tables near the windows had been taken. I asked the staff if they could seat us at a window should a table come free… and sure enough, right after the appetizers, they obliged.
The Food
The contemporary Australian fare is of high quality. On the day, the restaurant had a Christmas and holiday menu. We went the route of a 3-course communal brunch. Our appetisers were eggs benedict and the prawn and salmon Stellar salad. Our mains were pork belly and the red snapper, and our desserts were the passion fruit pavlova and the nine-layered chocolate cake.
They’re very fast with their preparation and the food came out very quickly.
The mains were particularly well made. The pork belly almost melted in my mouth, and the snapper was cooked to perfection. The desserts were a perfect way to wrap up a meal. The pavlova was light with an interesting citrus twists to it.
The Price Point
For two people, the food, plus one alcoholic drink and one cup of coffee came up to just over $150. For a fine dining experience during the holidays, this is a good price.
The Final Verdict
Stellar is a great place to celebrate special occasions, and share a romantic meal with your significant other. The food has a high standard, and you won’t be disappointed with the view that presents itself to you. I’d recommend requesting a seat near a window at the time of booking.
