Wow just wow, the Caul Me Maybe beef bowl tastes so good. The beef is super tender and well-spiced, and the sauce is the perfect match for this bowl. They just opened 2 months ago but I wish I found them earlier! I would really want to try out their unique drinks too like ginger spice latte and Dear Goat (goat milk latte) next time.

Had the affogato and long black with their signature brownies. Service was great and prompt. Nice music. Would recommend if you would like to spend a leisure afternoon with your fur babies (outdoor seating).

Love the new location quiet relaxing but yet near to the MRT station. Food was fantastic and staff are very friendly. Will sure be back soon.

Absolutely Amazing. Come And enjoy some fantabulous food. Absolutely amazing. The best place to have Lunch in Paya Lebar. Charmaine (Owner) has done an amazing job catering to every kind of a taste bud. What she has created is mind boggling. Great food and salads with such finesse, amazing taste, unbelievable amalgamation of such great ingredients is blast full of wow for your palette. It's not just me, but more than 20% of our office guys come and eat here and i just love it to come for lunch and for dinner before i go home. On of the evenings i requested the ladies to change a particular salad and mix and match with something else, and they happily created a wow moment for me and that tasted BELLISSIMO. Food Quality, Portion, Taste . All is perfect. Thank You for making a huge difference and i always wish you Gals keep doing really well.

Can always appreciate good customer service. Staff were not impatient in going through the menu with us. Explained it was our first time and our concerns, they guided us on what was suitable to our dietary needs. Its alfresco, despite the fans, it can get pretty warm in our climate. Definitely a go to for affordable healthy bowls!

Didnt know healthy food can taste so good! I am impressed! The store is near the train station.

So nice - tasty healthy vegan-friendly food! NOTE: It is outside the mall in the square - not inside the mall. I enjoyed the “Fun with black” bowl - rice & mango & avocado & tofu plus plus - non-dairy dressing (looks like mayonnaise but not). Friendly staff - fast service - decent value for $$ but not cheap. Yes, I’ll eat there again (my wife had the curry so I wanna try that...) If they go “Full Vegan” I’ll give them 5 stars!

This joint is awesome the salmon salah with their tempeh is to die for!! Stumble upon this joint, while looking for place to breakfast. Ms. Shalini their crew was very attentive. She asked, if I am having the meal for breakfast. I told her yes, and she immediately told me, she will prepare my food first. Within 5mins n just in time for my breakfast, the salad is served. Then there is this chinese lady, she is honest. I ordered their tempeh for take away. The chinese lady, gave me an extra serving, as she has forgotten to add the additional tempeh earlier on my food. I am impress with the staff and the food. Tho it is my first time, it will definitely not going to be my last. I will come back for their other salad. I gave them 10/10 for the quality, food taste and service. My only wish they would open more outlet in the near future.

Would consider this a pricey option given that it’s a food stand. Ordered a salmon bowl and while it’s tasty, portions are average. Love the presentation and outdoor ambience. Worth a try if you are looking for something healthy.

D. L.

Enjoyed the fresh meal, which was a bit small for my big appetite. Overall meal was fresh, colorful and nutritious. Nice choices on the menu and customization options. Note that it is outside so when it is sunny, it can be quite hot. I enjoyed being able to look a bit further, watch people walk by, have fresh air and watch the kids playing in the fountain

N. Y.

A chill place with your pet with goat milk coffee! Staff Janu is friendly and helpful as well!

We have been patronising SMOL at their previous location (outside PLQ mall). Love their customisable salad bowls. They have now moved to Parkside with option of air-conditioned seats which we appreciate in SG’s heat. :) They have now also expanded their menu to have a brunch menu on weekends. Oh yes, they also serve drinks such as coffee and tea now. We tried their tartined which are really delicious, and their variety is hard to beat. Would highly recommend anyone (esp those working or staying nearby) to come and try! You get healthy and delicious food all in one 😊

Great coffee, great atmosphere :) will be back for the food!

J. L.

The food is good, the pasta was very special. Just that I prolly didn't or couldn't taste the cherry tomatoes. The ice chocolate was very nice too.

j. h.

Food is ok but a bit pricey compared to competitors around the area. It's a viable but not top choice for people who like smol or the daily bowl.

k. m.

Pretty good selection and friendly staff 😍 yummy food but i didnt realise it was a quinoa bowl set lol. Im not a big fan of quinoa but this was still an enjoyable meal

U. D.

Very good service and great coffee. Will come again

J. K.

Pricey for what's given. Had the Burrito Beef and Under the Sea. Flavours aren't what I expected. Variety of ingredients is below average. Personally, I'd stick to Stuff'd which offers better greater value, variety and flavours.

F. H.

Healthy and tasty food. Pesto pasta is well done. Fowl play was good too.

E.

Lovely place!! Best brownie i ever had!!!

R.

Nice coffee. Nice ambience. Quiet area most people don't know about. Very nice and friendly staff.

L. N.

Amazing delicious food & drinks. Peaceful outdoor music and ambience pet friendly

Ordered Chix in a Hurry for takeaway. Lady serving was nice & friendly. The takeaway experience left much to be desired though. I brought a recycled bag with me. The food packaging didn’t hold all the food in, the lid was not tight enough. The food gravy spilled in my recycle bag within a few minutes of carrying it even though I was very careful. The sauce even dripped through my recycle bag onto the mrt floor, it was a mess! If you do take way you have to be very careful because the sauce is not separated & lid may not be as tight as you would expect. Also do note you have to pay extra $1 for a paper bag from the store.

E. T. B.

Good quality of salad items and meat. My partner and I had the Kena Salmon and Fowl Play, 2 thumbs up! We will be back to try others. On the side, I like the outdoor dining atmosphere that could people watch.

J. I.

Had to order SMOL for a team lunch and couldn’t get a delivery slot as I needed it before 12pm. Thankfully they have a whatsapp contact that connected me to Charmaine and she was extremely prompt and had a smooth transaction with her via whatsapp. Of course, love the food. Had Asian Invasion and Veggie Play with Kena Salmon. All bowls are amazing. Good enough flavours and not too empowering. Highly recommended!

Y.

healthy food and good service :) the food was a little pricier than what I normally go for but the quality of the ingredients was worth it! I was very pleasantly surprised by their inclusivity (staff was part of the deaf community, we had to communicate using hand gestures) and the rainbow flag at the counter. Overall a great experience and I would patronise again!

J. Y. L.

Chanced upon their free coffee deal and the coffee and service was great

Venue is a small stall outside the mall (sandwiched between PLQ and PLM). I visited when it was raining moderately, and there are no seatings as the few tables were under attack by the rain. The bowl choices were all pretty well made; ingredients were nicely arranged by the staff. The portions are not very big (383 calories for my curry in a hurry), and the price is not exactly cheap, but the food is good. Do try it!

A. G.

Food was not bad. Outdoor free seating with other stores. Not sure if I will go back again though, cos felt that it was on the pricey side based on the serving size.

N. Z.

I love how kind of the staff of this outlet. I didn't get to see his name but I can describe he is a Chinese boy around teenagers or early 20s wearing specs, he is the one who is so polite and kind the way he serve and greet and say have a nice day. yes eventgh Its a simple word but I feel the sincerity of him. Keep it up. I pray your outlet will get the best customer service.

Love the 'Kena Salmon' bowl. Garlic and ginger paired well with the honey soy salmon. Altho wished the garlic could be a little more crispier, slightly hard/tough to bite, as it gets stucked in the teeth. Nonetheless, still taste great. 63°C egg is perfect - who doesn't love a good runny yolk? Swapped the rice for caulirice for a healthier but still tasty meal. Will def order the salmon bowl again. The 'We've Got Beef' bowl on the other hand, could have been a tad more flavourful. Wished the beef could be abit more tender too. 'Chu Butternut' is also my dad's favourite healthy go-to meal. Will def order this again too. Portion is perfect, just nice and sufficient! SMOL has become one of my favourite healthy fix solution.

A. M.

Compared to the other healthy food places in Singapore, this is genuinely a step above in quality and price. Salmon is high end and for once isn’t over cooked, baked just right. Great selection of kambucha (which is fermented tea).

W. H. L.

very generous portions. Love the fresh ingredients used and the customer service is great. Definitely taste way better than a lot of salad concepts that uses ready to serve frozen and chilled food.

T. C. (.

Dont like the french beans, it take more effort to chew. Portion is alright. I feel that it's not worth my money :(

D.

I love the menu with so many vegan options and customizable if allergic to dairy , gluten , soy or nuts. Low carb - cauliflower rice base or greens is available too. Plus they deliver in eco friendly packaging .

J. L.

Food was delivered in good condition, not messed up. Taste was excellent. Well seasoned and done-ness was just right. Food was fresh. Will definitely recommend to others. Am a repeat customer and will continue to support smol 💓

J. C.

My whole team ordered a range of different menu each, all had a v delightful lunch on 4 Nov. Thanks much Charmaine for the good service too 👍

We ordered the Christmas Mini Buffet and it was the perfect meal for our family gathering. The portions sizes were very generous. The 3 cheese mash potatoes was our favourite dish, everything else was also tasty. For 6 courses, it was good value. Highly recommend 👍😋
