Milli Sky Dining & Bar Review: Restaurant With A View At National Gallery Singapore

TL;DR: Milli offers the best unobstructed skyline view of any rooftop restaurant in Singapore right now, paired with Chef LG Han’s shareable Singaporean-inspired menu. The prices are reasonable with a Chicken Rice Paella that’s good for 4 pax going for $32++. Set lunches from $38++ and no cover charge at the Lounge.

Milli is Singapore’s latest rooftop dining and nightlife destination, opened on 31 May 2026 at the National Gallery Singapore. It brings together Chef LG Han of one-Michelin-starred Labyrinth, bartender Vijay Mudaliar of Native, and the team behind Bae’s Cocktail Club. Milli is spread across two floors, featuring sky dining, cocktails, and a late-night club running till 4 am.

What Is Milli Singapore?

Milli is a two-level concept occupying the top floors of the National Gallery Singapore, the same space that was previously home to Smoke & Mirrors.

Milli: Sky Dining & Bar (Level 6) is where you come to eat and drink. Alfresco, intimate, and set against a panoramic sweep of the Singapore skyline: the Padang, Marina Bay, and the CBD, all without obstruction. No other rooftop in Singapore gives you this view quite so cleanly.

Milli: Lounge (Level 5) is the club side, running till 4 am with no cover charge. A 20-metre LED screen creates the illusion of a full-height window looking out to the skyline, synced to the music. The programming spans pop, funk, disco, R&B and hip hop from the 90s to today.

Behind it all: Chef LG Han (Labyrinth, 1 Michelin Star, #40 on Asia’s 50 Best Restaurants 2026 and #97 on the World’s Best Restaurants 2025), Vijay Mudaliar (Native, #45 on Asia’s 50 Best Bars 2025 and #84 on the World’s Best Bars 2025), and the Bae’s Cocktail Club team, who have hosted global acts like Jay Park, Sean Paul, Lisa and G-Dragon.

Named after the millennium, the concept celebrates Singaporean nostalgia: familiar flavours and sounds, presented in ways that feel new.

The View

The View at Milli Sky Dining and Bar

The view from Level 6 is genuinely unmatched. You get an unobstructed, panoramic sweep of the Singapore skyline. The Padang, Marina Bay, and the financial district are all from the rooftop of one of the city’s most historic buildings. It sets the tone before anything reaches the table.

What to Order at Milli Singapore?

The standouts are the Alaskan King Crab Leg and the Grilled British Cod’s Head. Highly recommended to order both. Everything else below is worth knowing about, but those two are the reason to come back. The dinner menu is available here.

Starters

The Popiah Tartlets ($18) and Chef Han’s Kacang Putih ($10) are pleasant, easy-to-eat starters. Familiar, well-executed, and good for the table to graze on while you settle in.

The Chilli Crab Ice Cream ($32) ⭐ is one of Chef Han’s Labyrinth signatures, making a return. The use of strawberry gives it a bright lift, while the chilli crab flavour still comes through distinctly. Sweet, spicy, and unmistakably Singaporean. A well-balanced and genuinely fun dish.

To Follow

The Cereal Corn Ribs ($20) come with a sweet curry sauce that immediately recalls McDonald’s curry sauce in the best possible way. The ribs can skew dry on their own, so don’t hold back on the dip.

The MIL-LY Smashed Burger ($28) is a double wagyu chuck patty with a proper crust and a house Ramly sauce that makes it feel local without trying too hard. Solid.

Mains

The Alaskan King Crab Leg ($108) ⭐⭐ is the dish of the night. The crab is cooked perfectly, sweet and yielding. But the white pepper sauce is the real story: deeply fragrant, moreish, with a gentle heat that builds. The kind of sauce you’ll want something to mop it up with, which brings us to:

The Grilled British Cod’s Head with Assam Curry Beurre Blanc ($36) ⭐⭐ is quietly the best thing on the menu. The fish is very tender, and the Assam Curry Beurre Blanc, tangy and spiced like Assam, silky like a French butter sauce, is exceptional. The side of roti prata is not an afterthought; it’s the perfect vehicle for every last drop of that sauce. Functional, fun, and delicious. Also, the price for this?? Insane.

The Chicken Rice Paella ($32) ⭐ is the best value dish here. Glutinous and koshihikari rice cooked in old mother hen stock, fluffy on top with a crispy scorched bottom like claypot rice. Comes with half a roasted spring chicken that’s properly juicy. Outstanding for the price point.

Desserts

The Bandung Kakigori sits somewhere between ice kachang and Japanese kakigori, featuring shaved coconut ice with rose liqueur and crisp meringue on top. If rose flavour is your thing, this hits. If not, the torched meringue alone is excellent and worth sampling regardless. I personally wasn’t the biggest fan of this.

The Cocktails

The cocktails are fun, locally-rooted, and more considered than the average rooftop bar. Vijay Mudaliar designed the programme, and it shows. The drinks are crowd-pleasing without being thoughtless.

The Milli ($26) revives the forgotten Million Dollar cocktail, invented by the same bartender who created the Singapore Sling. Updated with gin, pineapple, sherry, and a house mandarin grenadine.

The Singaporean Breakfast ($28) ⭐ is an espresso martini riff built on kaya toast and kopi, and it earns its place on the menu.

The Peranakan Spritz ($26) is light and floral. You have a lovely combination of blue pea flower, coconut soda, ginger flower, perfect for a warm evening on the rooftop before the night picks up.

A top favourite is the Whisky Green Tea ($26), a twist on a classic Singaporean millennial memory, mixing drinks with POKKA Green Tea. But this one comes with a delightful matcha foam that’s more relevant to the current generation.

Is Milli Singapore Worth Visiting?

Yes, and more confidently than most new openings deserve. The skyline view is the best in Singapore right now, and the food genuinely backs it up. Chef LG Han brings the same thoughtfulness as Labyrinth, but in a relaxed, communal format that’s accessible and repeatable.

The Chicken Rice Paella at $32, the Alaskan King Crab Leg, and the Cod’s Head with roti prata are all dishes worth returning for. And the ability to move from a proper dinner into a late-night club on the same premises — with no cover charge — makes it a rare, genuinely complete night out.

Order: Alaskan King Crab Leg, Grilled British Cod’s Head, Chilli Crab Ice Cream, Chicken Rice Paella.

Skip: Bandung Kakigori if rose flavour isn’t for you.
