Assaggi

2026 opening record. Confirm current status

Assaggi is an Italian set-menu restaurant that opened at 77A Neil Road on 10 August 2026, the second Singapore restaurant from Denis Lucchi, who has held a Michelin star at Buona Terra since 2019. MiddleClass.sg's August 2026 account described a three-course lunch and two dinner tasting menus, reporting S$58++ for lunch and S$88++ for dinner with optional S$18 supplements; those prices are historical editorial reporting, not operator-verified current prices. MiddleClass.sg disclosed a media-preview tasting; Time Out's roundup states no disclosure either way.

Worth it for / Skip if

Not on record yet. Clauses here are generated only from named fields — a published price, a booking route, the verified hours — and this venue carries too few of them to draw the line honestly. Nothing is inferred to fill the gap.

What it costs

No priced item is on record for this venue. Forkin publishes a price only where a dated public source carries it, so nothing is estimated here.

How to get a seat

No online booking channel is on record for this venue. Verified hours are not on record either, so call ahead before travelling.

What to expect

  • Getting there — Maxwell MRT, 3 minutes on foot · 77A Neil Road, Singapore 088903.
  • Dietary requests, dress code and group size — not on record. Ask when you call ahead.

The longer version

Assaggi occupies a shophouse at 77A Neil Road, on the stretch between Craig Road and Everton Park, and opened on 10 August 2026. It is the second Singapore restaurant from Denis Lucchi, the Lombardy-born chef who has led Buona Terra since 2012 and held its Michelin star since 2019; MiddleClass.sg reports he trained in London and Rome and cooked at Gattopardo and Garibaldi before that, while Time Out also credits him with Locanda. MiddleClass.sg's August 2026 account described the set-menu format: lunch is three courses, and dinner offers The Signature Journey, with starter, pasta and main, or The Pasta Journey, with three pasta courses. The same account reported S$58++ for lunch, S$88++ for dinner and an optional S$18 supplement; these are dated editorial prices and are not verified current prices from the operator. It described both dinner menus opening with the same canapes and house bread and converging for the last three courses: a Paccheri Amatriciana served tableside, a peach palate cleanser, and a rum baba. The report also listed cocktails at S$18 and mocktails at S$12, developed with Bar Kakure; these figures likewise are not current operator-verified price facts. MiddleClass.sg disclosed that its visit was a media-preview tasting. Time Out's 5 August 2026 roundup has photographs supplied by the restaurant, one impression — that the butter, a mound of whipped Beppino Occelli served with honey-glazed brioche, is "a showstopper" — and no disclosure either way.

Signature dishes

No dish is named for this venue in any source on record. Dishes are listed here only where an official source names them, so none are guessed from menus or reviews.

The official menu

No official menu is on record for this venue. Forkin transcribes a menu only from the venue's own published source, never from a review or an aggregator listing.

Opening hours

Day-by-day hours are not verified for this venue. Hours are published here only once a dated source has been read for the whole week, so a partial week is never shown as a full one.
