Sounds amazing but isn’t. When I went there, many of their sashimi types were sold out. The uni that came with their signature dish was not fresh. Service was slow too. This place is extremely poor value for money as well. A serving of toro 5 pieces was 70 dollars and their sukiyaki lacked ingredients(there was no cabbage, no glass noodles. Only some mushroom, onions, and strangely tomatoes) Dinner for 2 without alcohol cost us 400. I won’t be returning.

Syun’s best dish is their uni wrapped in raw A5 kobe beef. How AMAZING does this that sound??? The uni-A5 concoction comes in a small soup spoon and all you have to do is to scoop the entire thing in your mouth… open wide! There are both set and a la carte options. For the first visit, I definitely recommend getting a set for a good variety… the set had so much food! I kind of stopped eating at the last two-three courses so make sure you come hungry! For 4 sets at various price range($ 120 – 170) and a bottle of sake, we paid $ 200 per pax – not bad! For that second visit, go crazy on the a la carte options! The menu isn’t too expensive, roughly SGD $ 4 for a nigiri. Atmosphere is great and very ‘Japanese’ posh. There are even private rooms to entertain clients for those important meetings. My pet peeve is that the menu isn’t displayed on the website. Sometimes I like to prepare myself for a meal. Oh, and that Syun’s located in Sentosa Resort World. Be prepared to get lost coming here.

5 stars for the specialty — sea urchin wrapped by wagyu beef topped with caviar and sitting on a yuzu shoyu sauce and served on a golden spoon. For $ 15, it is a steal. Especially after you realize your tea cost $ 6! The uni is creamy and fresh and the wagyu is just melts in your mouth tender. Add the slight citrus taste of yuzu and saltiness of shoyu, it is just an explosion of taste which somehow works. The menu is limited for lunch as it is just lunch sets with ala carte sashimi. However the lunch set is very affordable as it starts from $ 18++ for the vegetable roll. There is also a children set which I am jealous of as it comes with a yuzu sorbet. The adult sets have no dessert. We ordered the bara chirashi set and it was so pretty. Sprinkled with flower petals(I assumed they were edible) and served with a wedge of lime. The lime was an unexpected twist and somehow it detracted from the raw fish. I could hardly discern the different fish in each mouthful as I felt the flower and lime overpowered it. However the chawanmushi was divine. It was soft like the original Rochor warm tau huay(bean curd) and it was also sweet from the seafood. The miso soup was clear and light. A dessert would really have ended the meal perfectly. Service was excellent. They watched the diners and would come round to top up the tea without being asked. There was also a side table for us to place our bags. Nice.
