Set in a heritage black-and-white bungalow on Scotts Road, Ki-sho breaks away from standard sushi courses with refined, seasonal kappo dining. Inside, an open kitchen commands an intimate U-shaped counter where chefs compose multi-course menus tailored to seasonal Japanese imports—from creamy bafun uni and succulent snow crab to kinki simmered in balanced dashi. Regulars praise the charcoal-grilled unagi for its crackling skin and tender bite, alongside rich A5 wagyu. Drinks lean into flexibility with premium sakes poured generously by the glass, including private Ki-sho brews, while any remaining donabe rice is packed into takeaway onigiri for the road.
- Seasonal Kappo Craft: Multi-course kappo menus spotlight seasonal seafood like bafun uni, kinki fish, and crisp charcoal-grilled unagi.
- Heritage Setting: Housed in a colonial-era Scotts Road bungalow with a uniformed doorman and open U-shaped counter seating.
- Sake by the Glass: Curated sake bottles are opened by the glass, featuring custom Ki-sho private brews.
- Thoughtful Onigiri Farewell: Unfinished claypot rice from the final course is thoughtfully shaped into takeaway onigiri.

Why Dine at Ki-sho
Six reasons discerning diners choose Ki-sho for heritage kappo omakase and attentive omotenashi hospitality.
Colonial Heritage Bungalow Setting
Housed in a conserved colonial bungalow on Scotts Road, dining begins with an old-world uniformed doorman before guests are seated around an open kitchen counter or intimate upper level rooms.
A doorman dressed in an elegant, old-world uniform stands at the entrance and guides guests inside.
You K Discreet Private Dining Rooms
Upstairs private rooms allow discreet negotiations and milestone celebrations served by dedicated personal staff in tranquil isolation away from the main dining counter.
previously, I had that at second floor when you need to negotiate deals. Food is served and a server attends to you m. Whole room for 2 pax!
Isaac Ho Artisanal Seasonal Kappo Omakase
Moving past predictable Singapore omakase sets, multi-course kappo menus highlight meticulous seasonal preparations such as sweet murasaki uni, succulent snow crab, and charcoal-grilled dishes.
For the culinary explorer tired of the 'standard Singapore omakase set', Chef Taro is a breath of fresh air.
Wong Teck Jung Open-Kitchen Counter Craftsmanship
Diners can watch chefs work directly at an open U-shaped counter while dishes and cooking techniques are personally explained course by course.
The dining room is centered around an open kitchen, with counter seating wrapping around it in a U-shape, allowing guests to watch the chefs at work.
You K Curated Sake Pairings by the Glass
Rather than requiring full-bottle orders, high-end sakes and exclusive Ki-Sho private brews are opened generously by the glass to pair alongside each course.
I particularly appreciated that they were willing to open bottles by the glass instead of requiring guests to order an entire bottle.
You K Takeaway Onigiri Hospitality
Guests who cannot finish the generous multi-course progression receive their remaining seasonal donabe rice delicately prepared as onigiri to enjoy at home.
if you can’t finish the final rice course, they’ll prepare it as onigiri for you to take home.

Patricia Yeo Charcoal grilled unagi
Did I mention about their charcoal grilled unagi? It’s the best unagi I ever had in my life. It’s very fresh, crispy on the outside, juicy and tender on the inside.
Patricia Yeo A5 Omi Wagyu
For A5 wagyu, you will need to top up an additional SGD50, which I did, and it is so worth it.
Alex Tiong Sake pairing
It was a great decision to splurge on Sake pairing as it completed the meal and the sake got better and better with a couple of very impressive private Ki-Sho brew.

Doorman Entrance Greeting
Guests arriving at the heritage bungalow are greeted and guided inside by an attendant in an old-world uniform before entering the dining room.

Rather than restricting diners to whole bottles, the beverage program opens premium selections and venue-specific labels by the glass to accompany multi-course omakase.
