estiatorio Milos
For an upscale Mediterranean fix, you’ll want to add this exciting new Asian outpost from chef Costas Spiliadis to your must-visit list. Established in Montreal in 1979, with outlets in Athens, London and New York, this latest venture at Marina Bay Sands makes the perfect hangout for a date night or a lingering lunch with friends over delicious sharing plates.
Step inside and you’ll be whisked to a coastal haven, where it feels like you’re lounging beneath a pergola by the sea, cocktail in hand – perhaps a signature Santorini Sunrise or Martini of the Gods. This family-run gem is also a treat for wine enthusiasts, featuring Singapore’s most extensive collection of Greek wines, sourced from the vineyards of Santorini to the lush landscapes of the Peloponnese.
On the menu, the Milos Special is a highlight; it features delicately fried paper-thin zucchini and eggplant, served with creamy tzatziki and saganaki cheese. Other standout dishes include Athenian-style lobster pasta, whole fish baked in sea salt, grilled octopus, and a refreshing tomato salad.
The ambience is pure Aegean elegance, with a marble entrance, thoughtfully curated artifacts, and a breezy, coastal-inspired interior. But the true heart of the restaurant is its stunning fish market, featuring over 15 varieties of wild-caught fish and seafood flown in daily from the Mediterranean, including prized catches like cherna, fagri and lavraki.

Pano Kato
This photogenic restaurant serving Mediterranean and Greek food was opened by the same people who run the furniture and homeware shop House of AnLi. Located on the second floor of Tanglin Mall, the bright and airy space features white and rattan furniture with green accents for a tropical touch.
Additionally, this Mediterranean restaurant offers some of the best family-friendly food ideal for sharing. Must-try sides include the pita with a trio of dips and the dolmades, a classic Greek dish of vine leaves stuffed with herbed rice and vegetables.
You can also tuck into traditional family recipes served straight from the oven. There’s soutzoukakia (a meatball dish), spanakopita (spinach and feta pie), and a classic dish of Greek seabass. The souvlaki is another popular pick, or go all out with your steak of choice. Don’t forget to try Pano Kato’s Pita Bar menu for delicious Greek cuisine. With a Gyros Pita station that features a vertical rotisserie, the restaurant serves up traditional Greek pita wraps with your choice of meats and sauces.
Visiting with friends? Order a tried-and-true baklava, divine layers of crispy filo, roasted pistachios and rosewater syrup served with vanilla ice cream and thyme honey. Otherwise, opt for gluten-free desserts like hazelnut brownie warmed, served with a scoop of vanilla ice cream.

Fun facts on Greek food
- Gyros is named for the turning mechanism that is used to rotate the meat used in the dish. The Greek word means “turn” or “circle”, and is also found in the word gyroscope.
- Beef dishes aren’t very common in Greek cuisine because the country’s mountainous terrain is far better suited to sheep and goats than cows.
