Went back to The Vines for lunch the other day and ordered serloin steak this time round! The steak is nicely done but the sauce is too little for the steak. The portion of the food there is really big so I suggest people with small appetite to share it with a friend! However, the service there can be improved further. Maybe it is due to lunch hour, the service is really slow and we had to tell the waiter 3 times to get our plates changed and the bill also took a really long time to come.

Who doesn\'t love oysters! Prefer to have it raw or baked? The Vines Restaurant have it all for you! I went there for a post-event lunch with my colleagues and everyone loved the food there! I prefer the baked one which had a generous amount of cheese on the fresh oyster but my colleague loved the raw one! Try it yourself and decide which is the one for you!

I went there on a Monday night, so naturally, there were not a lot of people around. I liked the ambience, dim lighting and cosy. Staffs were nice, polite and responded fast when we called them. However, the orders were taking way too long, considering that the restaurant only have less than 5 tables occupied at the moment. We ordered a dozen of fresh oysters, escargot and i had the bbq mixed grill. I am not a fan of oysters, so it is not my place to judge. The escargot comes at a price of $8.50 for half a dozen, which is reasonable.However, the taste was a disappointment. It was too salty for my liking, though i can still taste the sweetness. I practically finished my glass of water just after a piece of it. The bbq mixed grill ($18.80) consist of lamb, steak, salmon, chicken, a prawn and a baked potato. The baked potato was yummy! I would say it is quite worth the price with the amount of meat that they gave. The chicken though, was too dry to be eaten on its own, and i keep putting the red wine mushroom sauce that was meant for the steak over it. Frankly speaking, i hate the prawn. It is just not fresh. The meat would just stick onto the shell, making it hard to remove the shell. Waste of my effort of the big but stale prawn, which i did not even finish after having the first bite. Most likely, i would not be returning to the restaurant any time soon though my friends swore by their ribeye steak. Spending: Approximately SGD 22
