Reviews of CALI, Novotel Singapore on Kitchener

G. L.

Came here for the first time on Saturday 4.30pm for a late lunch. Wait staff Raj was very attentive throughout, and came back on occasions to check if the quality of food was up to my expectation. Also requested for the coffee I ordered to be placed in a take-away cup as I had to make my way off to another appointment after this and the request was beautifully executed. The fish and chips I ordered was battered and fried perfectly. Not oily, and crispy with a crunch 😊 Did not expect this, but I will definitely be back. Well done, Raj and team!

C. L.

One woman show - Mdm Wendy deserves a shout out for the impeccable service from giving recommendations, taking food and drinks orders, to serving of dishes, to clearing of plates, setting tables and to cashiering, all by herself. You are truly remarkable!

S. W.

Food is delicious, reccomend to try the Koma (Chicken with Basmati Rice). Rice is soft and fluffy. Great service from the staff and good atmosphere.

J. P.

Loved the place! It's not just a meal but an entire experience is served at Cali. The hospitality and food is top notch. Wendy had really good recommendations and made sure the food was served properly. The ambience is awesome and would loveee to visit this place again. The Grilled Seabass was cooked to perfection, and the side of roasted potatoes and seasonal vegetables complemented it beautifully. Each dish was delicious!

J. R.

It was not too crowded when we came. Service was good and quite fast. Food was great, delicious and filling.

R. T.

The Beef Hor Fun is tasty and the fish & chips tar tar sause goes well. Overall, it’s a good experience dining in here.

A. O.

Located inside Novotel Kitchener (formerly Park Royal Kitchener), Cali has a warm lighting & furnishings that invites you to enjoy your meal & linger over your desserts & drinks - which was what we did till we got chased out 😹 Ordered the Jerusalem artichoke bisque, it was smooth, nourishing, slightly sweet & good till the last drop! Enjoyed our mains of Beef Cheek, Lamb Shank & Fish& Chips - the meats were tender, well marinated & just the right touch of seasoning to bring out the freshness & flavour. The fish batter was light, crispy on the outside, soft & flaky fish on the insides. The chips was equally well done. Our kulfi dessert was unusual, but delicious with fresh spices (fennel?) & green (jelly?) bits. The accompanying mix fruits was also refreshing. Beexict (?) - was cheerful & gave good explanation on the menu- provided efficient service & was non-intrusive. Will check out the other Cali outlets - esp @Rochester 😊

M. L.

We had the lamb shank , beef cheek and Jamaican mutton curry. The beef cheek came with mash potatoes while the lamb and mutton comes with basmati rice; all of them taste great .

v. p.

We visited Cali yesterday for our anniversary and had a very pleasant experience. Tried several items on their menu… Each item had a distinctive flavour and was very enjoyable. We particularly liked the Crab Meat Pasta, Grilled Seabass, Orange Cake. These 3 are on their must to try list.

T. A.

Having good time with siblings here. Came here for their buy 1 free 1 lunch deals. Wok fried slipper lobster and fried chicken wing is the best. Local food available as well like laksa and cheese pasta.

s. v. s. s. v. s.

One of the few places where I genuinely enjoyed everything I ate. Here’s my list of recommendations: The Lava Torte is a MUST-try. We also had the Chicken Caesar Salad, undoubtedly the best one I've ever had.

V. K.

Nice place to enjoyed with friends or family, spacious and clean. Me and friends had International lunch buffet here. It has a variety of food to choose from, main dishes to desserts, even has vegetarian options too. Must try the laksa it’s so shiok and slipper lobster was good but not much, please add more. Love the kuehs too. The food was great with nice ambience.

V. K.

Was there on Valentine day dinner. Food wise taste is ok, but selection is quite limited. Although claimed to be Internationa selection, with a little bit of western, Japanese, local and Indian selection. But they are just a few dish of each type, so not much choice to choose from. Since it is 1 for 1 it is still worth it. If it is full price, then it is not worth it at all. The dessert is generally too sweet.

R. N.

Nice place and the food is ok but for the price, I expected slightly better. Ordered the stuffed chicken ($30) and wagyu burger ($32). Chicken was ok, but burger was mediocre at best. The Stella promo is quite worth it. Dining atmosphere is as expected of a hotel buffet restaurant.

p. p.

This was our last meal in Singapore which turned out to be the best! Both of us was extremely happy with a quantity and quality of our dishes, especially very special tasty Grilled Seabass! The price seems reasonable high, it worths any penny.

K. L.

Visited on 17 February 2023, at 8:30am. A very generous breakfast spread! They have asian and western options ranging from Chinese to Indian to English style breakfast food items to choose from. They had an omelette station where you can customize your omelette with their available toppings. A wide assortment of pastries such as croissant, apple turnover, and chocolate duos. A hearty way to start the day!

H. F.

Nice food and environment. Tried their fried fish n grilled fish

T. F.

Wonderful service and delicious food. Extensive menu, highly recommend the biryani

Y. T. L.

Highlights of the buffet were the pasta, laksa and the slipper lobster, which was very tender and well cooked. Chef and staff were very friendly, service was good as they checked in on us as well.

E. L.

nice vibes here with lots of hotel guests at the buffet!! lovely spread as well with a good variety of cuisines - western, chinese, indian - there was mexican rice also so all sorts of food! including the breakfast buffet classics 🔥highlights were the grilled tomato and indian food, nice balance of spice and spices. worth trying if you’re in the area or want to feel like you’re on staycation

Shoutout To This Beautiful Charismatic Woman, Stephanie, who I met during my stay at Novotel Singapore On Kitchener. She always made sure to greet everyone lovingly.

There was a live pasta station too.."Make your own pasta " The dessert section was THE BEST 👌 👏 👍 😍 Mango sticky rice was also available..The best dessert for me was the rose flavored dessert in boat 😋... The manager in charge, Mr Rajiv was also helpful.. All the staffs were very courteous and cleared the plates well.. Will definitely return back again with my kid.

W. T.

Rakesh was pleasant, helpful & forthcoming, and recommended yummy dishes, which we enjoyed thoroughly. The marination of chicken meat was great, though the small 2pcs fishes in fish and chips was so so.. Portions were good and sufficient for "big eaters", like my hubby and I, and we were very well filled. Wonderful dining experience, and Rakesh definitely deserves kudos & recognition for his immaculate service.

S. V.

My sister and I stayed at Novotel in March and we ate here regularly because we found the food to be of excellent quality and value. The staff were so friendly and helpful particularly Kenny the head chef. When he had the time he was happy to explain the different foods to us, which sauce went with what food, how something was made. All the staff were kind and thoughtful. The food was of a very high standard , always tasty and well presented. We had the all-you-can-eat buffet and that provides a worldwide menu obviously focusing on Asian cuisine. I thoroughly recommend this restaurant, Kenny and his staff.

R. “.

Raqesh has been caring and took care after us really well! High recommended place with a beautiful and tasty cuisine!

I recently had the pleasure of dining at CALI’s buffet, and it was an absolute delight! The cream pasta served from a cheese wheel was a unique and delicious experience, with the creamy sauce perfectly complementing the sharpness of the cheese. As for the Thai-style Wagyu beef, it was incredibly flavorful and tender. This buffet offers an impressive array of dishes that are sure to satisfy even the most discerning palate. It's definitely worth a visit!

Love the slipper lobster dish, pasta and Laksa! For the pasta - they cook it on the spot with your choice of ingredients and cream sauce is cooked on the wheel of Parmigiano - very creamy and cheesy!
