Meatsmith Little India

We were seated outside along the aisle. Nice place to sit, eat and relax and watch the vibrant weekend crowd What we ordered: 1. Masala Pork Ribs (tasty but masala was overpowering for us) 2. Beef Brisket (tasty) 3. Butter Naan (average, not crispy type) 4. Stuffed tandoori wings 5. 2 glass of Lager (nice) Attentive and friendly service from staff make our day! Total cost $153

Meatsmith truly stands testament to its name. If you are looking to spend an afternoon gorging on soft, tender, delectable meats - this is an excellent choice. It is located in a shophouse on a busy street in Little India, but the ambience is nice and cozy. We requested for an outdoor seating for 5. It started raining after a while, so they had to pull down the large raincover. Service is friendly and efficient. It's been a while since we went, so I'm just recollecting the dishes by memory that we ordered : 1) Chicken chop - This comes coated with peri-peri powder and served with slaw. Amazingly soft and tender chicken. 2) Brisket Springrolls - Crunchy on the outside, nice stuffing on the inside. 3) Vegetable skewer - this comes with tomato ragu and spicy powder coating. 4) Fish Tacos 5) Meat Platter - This comes with a host of things - Brisket Springrolls, Fried Chicken and Buffalo Sauce, Pork Belly Burnt Ends, Beef Cheek Pastrami, Pork Ribs and Beef Brisket. Each of the meats were so wonderfully roasted and grilled. The base sauce was amazing. Loved the overall experience.

We drove past randomly and thought that we should just try getting a seat, since it was on our list of restaurants to try. So glad that we did! We ordered the meat platter for 2 and a few drinks. The food was so good! We had stuffed chicken wings before, but the one here is something that you'll remember. The meats were, of course, superb. The beef brisket practically melts in your mouth and the lamb chops were done perfectly. The wait staff definitely added to the positive experience. They are super friendly, prompt, and always smiling. We'll be back for sure! Meat platter for 2, a cocktail, and 2 beers added up to about $163 after tax. Not the cheapest dinner, but definitely worth it.

I came with a few friends to celebrate a birthday. All I knew about Meatsmith is that they had the same owner as Burnt Ends. Having dined there in the previously, I had my expectations all fired up. The outlet, tucked in an unassuming corner along Campbell Street was surrounded by vegetable wholesalers and textile markets. But what caught our eyes were the pillars painted in blue and white “MEAT” “SMITH”! Okay, now to the good stuff. This outlet was placed in Little India for a good reason. They had woven the heritage of Indian cuisine into the dishes, presented with a twist on an Australian Mixed Grill. The 4 of us decided with the Premium platter for 2. The platter consisted of a starter, appetiser, main and a dessert. It was truly a culinary masterpiece we had. Such simple dishes, but displayed and presented with tremendous skill and understanding of flavour. I’ll definitely come back again, when I’m craving for some good Indian fusion! Swipe for descriptions and pictures of the dishes!

Friday evening. We were seated on the second floor, air-con and quiet environment. This is during Singapore restaurant week and we ordered the curated 4-course dinner set each. Starters: Masala Paneer, Pimento Chutney & Lamb Kofta , Mint Raita Both dishes are great. The paneer was the right amount of firmness when paired with the sweet chutney was delightful. Was surprised that I liked the lamb kofta. It was not tough or gamey, seasoned well to have it individually and the sauce complements and gave it another dimension. The pickle added some texture to the dish as well. Appetiser: Argentinean Red Prawn (Grilled Red Prawn| Corn & Pimento Relish | Lime Aioli) Nicely presented, great dish with a combination of textures from the prawn, corn and some tanginess from the lime aioli. Mains: Beef Hanger Steak (Wood fired grilled steak |Madras Butter |Turmeric Citrus Salad |Chickpea Relish) Ordered medium rare, came as such. The surface was grilled about right and had a good lightly charred and was seasoned well (salt?). The steak was lightly dressed with chickpea relish that was delish. Then the sides… a non assuming salad. NO! The tumeric citrus sauce was refreshing and the greens were fresh and crunchy. The salad kept the dish light. Dessert: Burnt caramel banana tart with chocolate ice cream (didn’t catch the actual name oops) Well balanced. From tart to filling ratio, the firmness of the filling, the sweetness of the filling. The team really balanced each aspect well and gave it a really good end to the meal. Pleasantly surprised by how each sauce and dish are distinctly flavoured and yet still able complement each other and level it up. The team did a really good job in pairing and curating each dish and overall together for this course meal. Highly recommended, looking forward to the next visit already.

Came here on a Friday evening to celebrate a birthday. The service staffs are really attentive and we were offered a conducive favorable spot. Just that the food takes a long time to arrive. We got all three of their platter options. Their meat and chicken were well seasoned, succulent and juicy, and the pork belly simply melts in your mouth. The crab meat and tobiko in the briyani that comes with the dish give an extra dimension of flavor and texture. The lamb, on the other hand, was a little gamey. The cost is definitely on the higher end. We spent around S$100 each person.

If you love meat, especially smoked meat with Indian flavours, this is the place to go. What an explosion of flavours we enjoyed. We ordered a 2 pax platter, added to sides and a Burger & beer combo - too much food for 2 adults and 2 teens. Everything was yummy, although things got a little overwhelming, in a good coma kind of way. Highly recommended.

Had lunch here on a Friday. The dining experience was great, the place decor is right on point. All the dishes were seasoned perfectly, *chef kiss*. We had a super hearty meal. They had a lot of spirits, ordered a Mescal which is rarely seen. Super smokey strong drink, love it. We took a while as she had to do some work and the staff just let us be. Excellent service. Even the toilet is so arty! Yes, that is a giant ceramic urn as a hand basin.
