There was a lot of talk about Belon being on “Asia’s Top 50” and receiving a 1* from Michelin last year so we had to make a trip here to satisfy our curiosity of how a small shop in the middle of SOHO made the list. I would not bother if you are expecting top grade michelin-recommended food, but worth a try if you just happen to be in the area and feel like spending money after a big pay check.It’s difficult to rate as I find the food very average, presentation odd using minimalistic Ikea-like
It’s difficult to rate as I find the food very average, presentation odd using minimalistic Ikea-like tableware, and the main course I did not expect a French restaurant to serve with the head and claw, which was very off putting for us, very overpriced for what it is. As a well reviewed dining venue some of what I pay it is for the decor and presentation. A small shop in SOHO just screams basic every day food to me, but the price charged for a Sunday lunch ($528+) is within striking range of Petrus in Shangri-La or Ecriture (helmed by Richard Ekkebus) which makes me wonder where this Black Sheep group Bistro sits within the big scheme of things.
Did not order wine as the selection is reminiscent of Wellcome Supermarket for the price of a bottle of Grand Crus.
In short, average food that seems like a “wannabe” fine dining establishment but food, but held back by its Bistro-style service and very high price for what it is, makes me a 1-time diner here and never again. The best tasting dish that’s not on the menu is their amuse bouche, and everything went downhill from there.
