8 new places for a first date, Singapore [Aug 2026]

18 restaurants opened in Singapore these past few weeks. 8 are worth a first date. We read every opening roundup - Eatbook, Honeycombers, HungryGoWhere, Time Out - so you can suggest somewhere neither of you has been, before everyone's feed catches up.

Ordered from splash-out to low-key. The first 2 are $$$$ - big first-date energy; if that reads as too much, start further down.
