Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

Our last day in Singapore before flying back to the UK. We couldn't have asked for a better place to have Sunday lunch. The restaurant is set out in various sections, seafood, Asian, Indian, Western and Desserts. There's also free soft drinks on tap.
Staff were excellent, so polite and helpful. The food was amazing, such a great array of food on offer. I would defy anyone to not find something they liked to eat. My favourite was the seafood section, fresh crab, Oysters, Scallops, in fact everything a fish fanatic like me loves. My wife has a more eclectic palate and happily flitted from one section to another. A delightful experience. Not the cheapest meal at $88 per person, but we were guided by the lovely staff to sign up for a loyalty card and we received a 15% discount.
Highly recommended

Amazing all you can eat in the marina bay sands hotel complex. Everything from fresh sushi, Chinese , Indian and a wide selection of fresh fish is available as well as a selection of cakes and fresh fruit for dessert. Free non-alcohol drinks however beware alcoholic drinks were very expensive. Great location would recommend a visit.

For the second time in a couple of years, we had lunch with the family at the Rise Buffet , located on the ground level of the amazing Marina Bay Sands hotel complex. There were 12 of us in the family group and the food catered for all pallets and was of the highest quality and delicious. The cost per person is SG$53 per head (including gst and service chargeand less for children, from memory 5 yo and under are free. If you get a free MBS Rewards Card they will provide a discount of 30%. This brings the price down to around $37 per head. This is on a par with top buffets in Perth such as the Atrium and Epicurean at Crown.
Rise is the perfect location for a family celebration while overseas.

I find it excellent that MBS was swift in adopting technology in response to covid situation. However, in view of the use of technology, we were not that pleased with Rise restaurants where we had our breakfast. The ordering process is relatively native, where have to scan a QR code just to see the menu. I would be expecting that we will be directed to a webpage where I can place my order immediately. I am slightly disappointed at this point because even Pizza Hut could allow me to order online when I dined in. This makes me wonder if Rise restaurant believe that after this covid situation, we can go back to the way how we do buffet and hence reluctant to adopt technology. The shortage of staff on duty are very prominent too. The restaurant wasn’t even crowded when we had our breakfast at 8am but we have to wait for almost 15 minutes before anyone paid attention to our presence so that I can order my food. To add on to the disappointment, our beverages that we ordered when seated wasn’t even served during this 15 minutes wait. After we ordered our food, we have to wait for almost another 15 minutes for my food to come. Luckily, the waiter served some croissant that I didn’t even ordered while we waited, if not I would have starved to death. To make memory last, at the end of my dinner, some of my order did not even come, but I decided enough is enough and I need to go for my pool session. However, after I pass my credit card to the waiter, I am horrified that I need to wait for another 15 minutes to get my credit card back. As a result, my pool session was cut short from 1h to 30 minutes. To highlight why this is a big deal as it is stated in the rules that each room are only allowed to spent an hour per day for the pool. Despite all the good reviews on their food, I will not dine in Rise restaurant again as I do not believe that they are capable of handling the crowd during lunch or dinner. The servers were like headless flies going all over the place which lack structure or zonal system. I can have better service with the same amount of money spent. The management need to review the entire workflow in place for this ala cart buffet, it is definitely not enjoyable. I can’t imagine myself having to wait for my oyster, crab, beef to come so slowly if I will to have my dinner there.

We went to this restaurant based on the recommendation from my friends. However, they failed to meet our expectations from beginning to the end. Service was very slow and we had to wait almost 10-15mins to get the attention of the staff to tell our orders. Since they serve by Ala carte style due to the pandemic, there were so many plates piled on our table that it looked so messy. Staff were not proactive in taking orders as well as clearing the plates after paying premium price for the buffet. Food was average and was not so wonderful. I would totally recommend Carousell or Edge for buffet options. I had told the staff that it was our wedding anniversary and please make it special for us. Nothing was done at all besides being ignored entirely. After we paid our bill and was almost walking off from the restaurant, the Indian lady staff said that there is an anniversary cake for you and asked if we would still want it. In my experience of eating at many restaurants, no one has asked if we would want the anniversary cake and instead they would serve it to us with a great smile and wishes. Being the buffet restaurant at MBS, I am very appalled by the poor customer service. We did not enjoy our anniversary lunch at all. Sad to pay so much to only receive bad food and poor customer service.

We dined at Rise for the dinner a la carte buffet on a Saturday night. There is an electronic menu, and you can order any number of items which are served at your table.
Upon being seated, we started with an amazingly beautiful and delicious seafood tower for our table. All of the dishes we tried were incredibly delicious. The meal was good value (considering a buffet), especially with the MBS Lifestyle card that provides a 20% discount.
When we arrived, the restaurant was not yet full, and the service and food delivery were very prompt. As the night went on , however, the food timing and service slowed down considerably. They appeared to be way understaffed for the number of guests. We had some dishes that took 30 minutes to arrive and even one where we think they forgot to place the original order.
Next time, I would use a different strategy to either arrive a little earlier or order a larger amount of items at the beginning.

My 77 year old mother made booking in person and they took down her details. She specifically asked for a 1 for 1 lunch booking special and they gave her a date and time due to limited availability.
We turned up at the date and time given. Upon sitting, the waiter Kumar asked my Mum for the printout for the 1 for 1 special. She couldn't find it in her bag, but has cleverly taken a clear picture of it when she received the printout as she was so happy to have received it and wanted to treat me to lunch.
He outright told her no, and refused to honour the special. She said she has somehow misplaced the printout and was happy to send the picture to them. The assistant manager, Phirul, came out and repeated they need the printout. The clear photo of the printout with voucher code, name, membership number etc can not be honoured.
What a strange policy in this electronic era. What was worse was that they made my mum feel rather upset and she was berating her old age and poor memory throughout lunch. Totally killed the experience.

We had lunch. I would say it is OK, not worth the money spend if you expect that your lunch would taste as if you were at fancy restaurant. Good selection of food, expensive cheese, nice sashimi, however you still pay for an option to get as much as you may consume , not for the content.

Had lunch here as an advanced birthday celebration.
I was mad at my husband at first because I only wanted to eat at a cheap ramen house, but he had the reservation already a month early. Why I was wary is because I heard that the food isn't worthy of the price. I was glad that the experience proved me wrong. I was really satisfied with the taste of the food, and the resto ambiance. The staff is also nice and helpful. I forgot their names but they're both Filipina.

I made a very last minute reservation and the restaurant was very accommodating and allowed the reservation and was graceful about it. This is of course not my first time dining here, but every visit has been a memory on it’s own, a fantastic one of course. The hostess greeted me welcomingly with smiles and brought me to my table. That itself was a great start to my dinner. I arrived very much earlier than my friends, and the servers Alvin and Kevin made me feel at ease and was helpful and quick to assist with any help I needed. The food was excellent right from the fresh seafood to the delicious grills to the tasty sweets. All was goood. I’m looking forward to my next visit and I can’t wait to try out more dishes next time. Thanks to the staffs at Rise Restaurant for the fabulous service. I WILL BE BACK.

Rise is good for buffet after its revamp. Normally priced at 68++ but today 158++ as 1st lunch in the first day or new year. Well, you have to bear with this.
The price come with a reason. You have lobster/goose liver/roast wholeness lamb/a lot of dessert which you cannot see during normal times. Good taste. Marvellous combination. The only question is if you can really eat to the value of food which you paid for. I seriously doubt on that. Anyway it is a very good lunch with good ambiance and good service and most importantly good taste of food.

A queue was slowly forming behind me as I stood in line at the entrance of the restaurant. Though I was slightly early, it was nice of the hostess to lead me to my table.
3 menu QR codes were pointed out to me as I sat down. One for food, one for beverages and the last one, the specially designed Christmas menu, which comprised of 3-4 dishes for a price.
Local cuisine was served here, with more than a handful of Chinese dishes on the menu. I chose as a main dish, the Hainanese Chicken Rice, and the Chinese Rojak as a starter. Both dishes were well presented and tasty. The chicken pieces were chunky and tender, cooked to perfection, and the starter had the right degree of sweetness. The Ice Cendol was my dessert of choice. It was premium prices for all dishes.
Do note that the loyalty card has to be presented at the point of payment for the discount application and points accrual. I also noticed that there were only a few team members working the floor, hence it was an effort getting the attention of the wait staff.
Nevertheless, it was a pleasant dining experience.

Walked in on a weekday for lunch with family. Our waiting game started with the queue for the seats; it was a half hour wait because there were so many reservation and 4 tables ahead of us. ON A MID-WEEK!
QR code for menu, but ordering through the service crews. Then our wait for beverages which were first ordered, yet came after 1st round of food. The service crews were severely understaffed as we waited for the food to be served from the counters. Worse when the service crew got our orders written and served to the neighbouring table, twice. Or even forgot about serving us our orders (e.g. fruits). So we have to repeat our orders, plus the wait for food, the whole dining experience was frustrating.
Except for the indian cuisine, the selection and food were great, as expected. Guess thats it for buffet during the covid period.

I visited Rise Restaurant for the dinner buffet on 04/04/2020 as a stay cation guest too. Your service professional by the name of Mr Brennan was assigned to the table that my family was seated at. He is very polite, friendly and even put on every smile whenever he was helping to clear our empty plates etc. Even when we asked him to help with ordering of certain food, he has no hesitation but put on a smile to help.
Such a great person is defintely an asset to your company and restaurant. Please ensure to treasure, compliment and reward this Mr.

Greeted before entering the restaurant by the staff. Upon sitting, you will be served with bread and soup to start off. After which, a polite staff holding on to a tablet will start to place order. Food quality is awesome and presentable. Highly recommend you to try it if it suits your budget
