Market Bistro, situated in the heart of Marina Bay Financial Centre (MBFC), brings affordable all-day dining to the area. The restaurant is managed by Eleven Seventeen, the group behind renowned steakhouses like Fat Belly and Meadesmoore, giving office workers in MBFC can now enjoy a greater variety of food options!
Modern Minimalistic Interior
The Bistro features a modern, minimalistic design with black and white tones and warm wood accents, creating an inviting atmosphere. The open kitchen concept allows us to catch a glimpse of the preparation of the meal, while table-side lamps enhanced the intimate dining experience in the evening.

Market Bistro offers an all-day menu starting at 11 am with starters like the XL Norwegian Salmon Croquette ($15), Glazed Cheesy Arabiki Sausages ($12), and Sticky Chipotle Fried Chicken ($15). For mains, try the 7-Hour Braised Beef Cheeks ($24), 200g Grass-Fed Striploin ($28), or the Lemon and Herb Roasted Chicken Leg ($19).

Sides
Fried Brussel Sprouts
The Fried Brussel Sprouts ($14) was packed with umami, offering a sweet kick from the caramelised sauce and a nice char from the sauté. We loved the addition of brown rice puffs, which added a slight crunch and a toasty aftertaste!
Fried Baby Squid
The Fried Baby Squid ($16) had a thin, crispy batter with a strong seafood flavour. The spicy aioli added a nice kick without being too oily, which enhanced the overall taste!
Mains
Irish Duck Confit
The Irish Duck Confit ($28) was well-marinated, with tender meat, a thin layer of fat, and a crispy skin.
Served on a bed of sweet potato mash, it offered a creamy, well-balanced contrast to the savoury duck. It’s a nice twist from the usual mash!
Grass-Fed Ribeye 
We had the Grass-Fed Ribeye ($34) cooked to a medium doneness. The beef was nicely prepared, paired with a red wine sauce that had a subtle sweet note. While the ribeye had a good amount of fat and a pleasant chew, we think it could have been more tender, which would have made it even more enjoyable
Rich Fudgy Chocolate Brownie
We loved that the Rich Fudgy Chocolate Brownie ( $12) was served warm, complemented by the cold vanilla ice cream. The hazelnuts added a nice fragrance, though the dessert was a bit too sweet for our taste. It’s a great option to share after a meal!
