Korean fine dining in Singapore runs from chef-led tasting menus at Meta (two Michelin stars) and Nae:um (one star) to premium Korean steakhouses where cuts of hanwoo and prime beef are grilled for you. Set menus start from around $88++ at Na Oh and go past $300++ for dinner at Meta, while the steakhouse sets at COTE and Drim usually cost about $145-$190 a person. Most of these restaurants are in the CBD, Keong Saik, Tanjong Pagar, Robertson Quay, the Civic District and Orchard, and Na Oh is the one outlier, out in Jurong. The top tables book out well ahead, so reserve early and check each restaurant's own site for the current seasonal menu and price.
