Editor’s Note

Last updated 29 May 2026

Our take: Tend Bistro presents itself as a hidden gem in Punggol, offering a mix of Izakaya fare and comfort food.

We see consistent praise for its unique location overlooking a golf range, making it a good spot for a relaxing meal or drinks.

The Unagi Kabayaki, priced at $25, is frequently highlighted for its generous portion and tender texture, while the Smoked Duck Goma Soba also receives positive mentions for its tender duck and well-cooked soba.

Skewers like the Tori Sasami Mentai ($2.50) and Cheese Maki ($3.50) are popular choices, though some feedback suggests they can dry out if not eaten quickly.

However, there's a notable dissenting opinion regarding the ramen, which was described as having rancid lard and bland soup, and chicken wings that were overly salty.

We think the strength of Tend Bistro lies in its Izakaya items and the unique ambiance.

It seems best suited for those looking for a casual hangout with friends, especially if you appreciate a view.

We'd recommend focusing on the grilled items and the Unagi Kabayaki, and perhaps giving the ramen a miss based on the mixed reviews.

What customers say

Tend Bistro is largely praised as a hidden gem in Punggol, offering authentic Izakaya cuisine with a unique golf range view.

Customers frequently highlight the quality of their grilled skewers, the tender smoked duck goma soba, and the generously portioned unagi kabayaki.

While many find the food delicious and the atmosphere relaxing, some experiences, particularly with ramen and chicken wings, have been described as extremely poor, citing issues like rancid lard, blandness, and tough textures.

Pricing is generally considered acceptable, though some find it a bit high.
