Food was average, tempura wasn't that great. The batter was too a bit thick and only a thin drizzle of sauce is given. No dipping sauce is provided at the side, you have to ask for it separately. I thought that this was a bit weird as it should be a given.
Also, the tempura should have been put on a separate plate apart from the rice as the moisture from the rice made some parts of the tempura soggy, and the rice also ended up sticking to the tempura.
Service was alright, the server was a bit too chatty but I guess she was trying to be friendly. This is the first restaurant I've been to that requires customers to dispose of the birthday cake box (a foldable paper box) themselves... which doesn't make sense to me.
All in all, I will definitely not return.

There is a dead fly on the table when we walk in. No one even supply us a cup of water but other table did have. However, food is not too bad. In a word, if you like normal taste Japanese food then don’t care about their bad service. It’s might be your option.😄

Took my family there for a celebratory lunch. The food was alright but the tempuras served were quite cold (slightly warm) as if they had been on the rack for some time. Not as good as I expected. Service staff were good n attentive.
Giselle
I really wanted to give this a 5/5 rating but something about the chicken led me to do otherwise. Maybe chicken just isn't meant to be 'tenpura-ed', or maybe it was the cut they used, but it just felt like eating flavoured cardboard and sort of affected my meal. Ordered some seasonal lychee drink, not recommended. Everything else was really good, the tempura 'skills' are definitely there, the egg and pork were really good.
Bob Cheng
Tempura Makino at Vivocity is a fantastic spot for tempura lovers. The ingredients are fresh and the batter is light and crispy. Each piece is fried to perfection, not greasy at all. The set meals are well-balanced and satisfying. Service is fast and friendly. The open kitchen adds a nice touch to the dining experience. Highly recommended for a delicious and authentic tempura meal.

The Tempura Makino @ Vivo City offers an unforgettable dining experience. The sushi was fresh and expertly prepared, the ramen broth rich and savory, and the tempura perfectly crisp. The atmosphere was warm and inviting, and the staff incredibly attentive. A true gem! Thank you.
Kah Wang Tan
I got the salmon belly tempura set and I think the portion was bigger than expected. Salmon belly was fatty yet not too gelat. Tempura were fried well and fresh, and I enjoyed the chicken fillet.
Perhaps one thing to improve is to have chili powder on the table for spicy lovers. And certain part of the restaurant was a little warm and stuffy.
Nonetheless it was a good dining experience, and our service staff Emily Chan was very prompt and helpful.
